Koko78 Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 At this time of year these writers have to bored to death! So now they just start writing anything to keep them awake. Mayock regularly changes his ratings as he watches more game film on players, and makes no secret about doing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somnus00 Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 I really like Mayock. But I never understood how he ever had Peppers ahead of Adams and Hooker. Also, I completely disagree with Watson as the #1 QB. In my opinion Watson was a terrific college QB. He is not an NFL QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augie Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 ...and just what has changed? Big drop for Kizer. Was that in part ND infatuation that he has now shaken off? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
section122 Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 I really like Mayock. But I never understood how he ever had Peppers ahead of Adams and Hooker. Not that hard really. Think about how much discussion that generated. It is also possible he was doing a favor for Peppers agent by bumping the guy up and generating discussion around him for a few weeks.

C.Biscuit97 Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Mayock is probably my favorite draft guy but talk about overthinking things. This may explain how he put Blaine Gabbert over Cam Newton or Robert Ayers being the best player in his draft class. These draft rankings are completely for entertainment and should be treated as such. All of these guys would have been fired if they ever were given a NFL job.

C.Biscuit97 Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 ....how does Davis Webb move into the discussion so quickly?..... Because these media members want clicks/ ratings. It's boring to say its stupid that guys can rise or fall months after they have played in a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Riverside Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 When you also factor in if certain players fit the teams they are drafted to and stuff like that a thought popped into my mind maybe some would like to comment on......how would Petty (the qb for the jets) factor into this draft class? He was pretty highly hyped leading up to the draft he was taken in....and doesnt look so hot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davis Webb says “double-digit” teams told him he’s a first-rounder Posted by Josh Alper on March 25, 2017, 11:44 AM EDT When discussing the top quarterbacks in this year’s draft, attention has largely been focused on North Carolina’s Mitchell Trubisky, Clemson’s Deshaun Watson, Notre Dame’s DeShone Kizer and Texas Tech’s Patrick Mahomes. Mahomes’ former backup in Lubbock says that he’s hearing there’s room for one more in that group. Davis Webb transferred to California for the 2016 season and put together a performance he says has impressed NFL scouts. Webb held his pro day workout on Friday and said after it was over that he’s gotten a lot of positive feedback during his conversations with teams. “I’ve talked to a lot of NFL people,” Webb said, via ESPN.com. “And double-digit teams have told me I’m a first-round guy. Every meeting I’ve had, they’ve said I’m one of the best quarterbacks on the board.” Edited April 12, 2017 by OldTimeAFLGuy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFan17 Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 There is no such thing as risers and fallers. What happens is, the media starts to get a little more info from teams here and there. Some more accurate than others. As far as Webb is concerned... I think the Texans take him. That's where I have him mocked at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Estro Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Mayock's rankings as the draft nears becomes more about what he's hearing and where he thinks they come off the board. We've known for a while now that Hooker and Adams are going before Peppers, we've also heard for about a week now that teams really like Gareon Conley and he's likely going to be the 2nd CB selected.......Mike Mayock's rankings now accurately reflect that. Kind of group think, if you will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's boring to say its stupid that guys can rise or fall months after they have played in a game. Webb had always been there among those in the know. He impressed me a lot in the couple of games I watched him play this past year. He looked like an NFL qb to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill_with_it Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 ....how does Davis Webb move into the discussion so quickly?.....There were quite abit if noise around him at the senior bowl suggesting he is capable of being a starter. Right now hes visiting with the Seahawks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
