BuffaloRebound Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 So the Chargers are gonna pass on Tua because of Tyrod Taylor and the Patriots are gonna trade up to 13 without a 2nd rounder this year. Fanboys of 1 team shouldn’t do mock drafts. That’s like a Bills fan doing a mock where Lamb or Jeudy falls to the late 1st and Beane magically trades up from 54.

There's been three different reported numbers for him. 13, 19, and 24. All are less than ideal but 24 is basically an average score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He got a 13 the first time he took but got a 19 later. Herbert went from 25 to 39. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might as well make them all enter a pissing contest and whomever pisses the furthest should be made QB1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Marino got a 16. Tyrod got a 15 and one could argue its his improvisational acumen on the field which has allowed him to occasionally start in the NFL in spite of lesser talent. In this group, Jerry Jeudy got a 9, and while I know it's not as important for WRs, his college tape immediately impressed me as one of the smarter route runners.

Well, absolutely no doubt it is better to be football-smart than smart-smart... but I will still laugh at any player that gets a 13. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they use it to try and gauge processing speed for QBs? It's not super effective. LJ is probably the first modern era QB to have real success though while having a very low score. Tua also apparently was not very good on the white board though - so I think that may be more concerning than anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil The Thrill Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 Predicting trades in drafts is especially useless because there are so many factors that come into play. Take no stock in Peter’s mock draft here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazing how some how some superstar "falls" to the Pat*s in every one of PK's mocks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Miami out of fear over Tua's health status takes Herbert they will be making the same blunder that they did when they didn't take Brees because they worried about his health status. Brees revived the New Orleans franchise and has had a HOF career while the Dolphins have floundered for a generation with a multitude of mediocre qbs. Herbert has the prototypical football body. Tua is immensely the better football player. My prediction is that Miami will stay at the five spot and select Tua. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great take, John. btw, I am not making comparison’s between the players, but I happen to remember when an Oklahoma St RB fell all the way to the second round in the ‘88 draft because teams were worried about his injuries. The team that took him took him with their first pick in the draft...thankfully that worked out well for both.
