e16bball Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 Finally got to watch the 1st day. Eskridge is pretty special. I get so tired of hearing every fast guy get compared to Tyreek Hill, so how about Brandin Cooks? He’s got some of that, with great straight line speed but also the ability to snap off these nasty cuts. They mentioned on the broadcast, and it was a really good point, he understands leverage and how to use it. Terry is good at that too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RSkinGM Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 Sorry to hear Mac Jones is hurt- ankle. Sounds like he probably won't risk playing . Wanted to see what he had to show . 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still can’t believe the Saints & Patriots traded him. I understand the Rams trading him bc of their depth at WR but even them, they could’ve used him the last few years too.

LoganF89 Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Thoughts on Jamie Newman? from an article I saw on bleacher report it seems like he could be a darkhorse competitor at QB for a team. 6,2” 235. two things they stare in the article is that he has probably the best deep ball at the senior bowl. And also that he’s a player that when in the pocket he can take it right up the middle and run for it executing RPOs and play action they also did say that he will throw into tight windows with accuracy but needs to learn how to put more touch on intermediate routes to where LBs can’t just swat the ball down. i have to watch some tape on him but sounds like he may be an option in the 2nd or 3rd round this year if we don’t make a play at a QB via trade, FA, or 1st round Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't like that he didn't play this year. I wouldn't mind him in the third, but not before that. I like Kyle Trask better than Newman. Newman has good bulk, decent height and can run which is nice. I think his arm is kind of weak and I don't think he can beat NFL defenses deep. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to say that’s enough to be a successful NFL QB. It certainly wasn’t for a guy like Greg McElroy. But McElroy never threw for 4500 yards and 40 TDs either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ripsean21 Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Michael Carter doing that UNC backfield thing. That team has so much talent coming out and going forward lots of future pros!!! Great run 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ripsean21 Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 My guy Weaver man this guy is a force on the DL. Pitt has nasty players on that defense I’m sure Hamlin will make a play on the back end soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turtle28 Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Watching these QBs play just reaffirms my belief that if we don’t take one in round 1 that we shouldn’t take one and should just continue to develop Allen, Heinicke & Montez. I’m loving what I’m seeing from Carter the RB from UNC, he’d be an awesome selection in the mid rounds. Also, LBs KJ Britt (Auburn), Jabril Cox (LSU) & Barron Browning (Ohio St) are showing well. Felton the WR from UCLA and the WR from Louisville has made some plays but he has 2 drops too. So, he seems like a 50/50. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My only issue with sermon is the injuries I love the player though!!! And Fitzpatrick has done a heck of a job finding zones and making plays today Frank’s the WR should have had a easy TD but the QB threw a terrible ball. Ehllinger looked composed he really impressed me with his pocket presence and decisions and ball placement in the first 1/4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, Fitzpatrick, that’s the WR from Louisville. The WR from Arizona ST has looked good. Was that Franks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
