RaidersAreOne Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 I find it interesting how Bo is already 24, Penix will be be in a couple weeks and Daniels will be a few months into the season. Some old rookies for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chali21 Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 Anyone wondering how the Wilson trade affects the draft? I think it’s them covering their bases in case they miss on a QB. But does anyone think they’re still in play for a QB in the first? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it’s highly likely they take Nix at 12. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Totty Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 I am just sitting here waiting for Schefy to put out the report we have traded up to #3. Then I will wait for the report we have traded to #2 during the draft. Hey Tommy Testicles, go get Jayden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That quote was definitely taken out of context and I walked away convinced that he is almost Kobe like in his focus. He’s not the most charismatic guy IMO but he is going to be a stud in the league. Don't go comparing this guy to Kobe. This isn't focus, this is arrogance. Kobe and other greats in their sport lived and breathed the sport. I don't get the impression football is in the top 5 interests for Williams. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darbsk Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 Just watching some film and my goodness Jonah Ellis looks really, really promising to me. Anyone else seen much of him. TJ Watt light? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can’t remember where I heard it, but the talking heads were saying that NFL teams don’t really negatively view older age for QBs unlike other positions. They actually prefer the additional reps and maturity that theoretically comes from that extra year or so at the college level. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie2Gunz Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 (edited) I see three realistic possibilities in the upcoming draft and what to know which option you feel is the most likely. These are in no particular order. 1. We stay at 13 and draft a CB/OT 2. We mortgage the future and move up to 3 for a QB 3. A top 4 QB slips to 10ish and we do a slight trade up What do I hope happens? #3. What do I think happens #1. If Washington doesn't take Daniels at 2 then #2 becomes a distinct possibility based on what I have been reading about AP being enamored with Daniels. If Daniels goes #2 and Maye is at 3 do you think we would be as aggressive in trading up? Thoughts? Edited April 23 by Frankie2Gunz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darbsk Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 Does anyone else see a bit of Derek Carr in Michael Penix? In the fact his pocket prescience isn’t great and despite being a very good athlete he’s not really that creative or great at extending plays?

agarcia34 Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 I don’t see Carr in Penix. I see Carr in Nix and I don’t want to buy another version of that 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carr is a stiff and compact athlete with conventional throwing mechanics who plays conservatively and throws deep opportunistically. Penix is a looser and longer athlete with unconventional throwing mechanics who likes to throw downfield. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are two things that capped Carr's ceiling. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big_palooka Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 Something interesting I read is there may be a lot more trades this year in part because the depth of talent on day 3 is awful. Because of NIL a lot of talented players stay in school now. What you are getting day 3 are guys who teams don't feel can make their 53 man rosters so they may be more apt to trade those picks. Interesting take. And no doubt NIL is going to impact the draft going forward. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
