Royale with Cheese Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 I wonder if any GM or coach in the history of the draft was completely honest when interviewed? They basically told you everything but we would never know if it was the truth or not. Kind of like reverse psychology....I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madd Charlie Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 47 minutes ago, thenorthremembers said: They arent spending tons of time with guys like Rosen, Mayfield, and Darnold if their intent is to stay at 21. My mind would be blown if they dont trade up. Guys like Beane and McDermott, who are intentional about everything they do, have to know they will be out the door in three years if they don't fix the QB situation as soon as possible. Waiting until next year would be a horrible choice. Maybe they met them and looked at the film and decided they are not worth moving up for. So far this class of QBs is deep but has no no-brainer top tier talent. Would it really be that shocking to see a few of those guys drop? If Keenum goes to Denver, and Miami decides to wait to select Tannehill's successor, Cardinals find a vet (wouldn't be surprised if its Tyrod) all of a sudden two of the top 5 QBs in the draft probably drop to the Bills and get drafted where they actually belong. With the number of holes on this team and a cap space crunch it's hard to justify giving up what it would take to move up in this draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like A Mofo Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Like A-Rod once said: R-E-L-A-X It's March 7th. SO many variables can change between now and draft day. Just look at this time as pure speculation. As for me, I'm focused on the UFA period. Draft speculation IMO can ONLY REALLY start after the UFA period passes. It will provide more clarity on who needs a QB or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mason Rudolph may end up being the best quarterback in this draft. WR James Washington can make sure of that at 22. Vita Vea may be your new Ted Washington. Sit tight, son.
