If you're a good talent evaluator who is patient, it will. It doesn't always take a first round QB. Sometimes - and Wilson is evidence of this - it takes the right QB on the right team. The problem isn't talent evaluation. It's talent shortage at QB. The resulting demand is what drives the price of QBs so high. You can't evaluate talent that simply isn't available. Wilson and Brady are about the only examples of guys later in the draft really working out well. For every Wilson in the mid rounds, there are many many Connor Cooks, Tom Savages, or Logan Thomas.

Scouts don't make picks, they're in the room for discussion sake only. If they show loyalty to the prior GM and are leaking stuff to the media anyone would can them all immediately anyway. The reports are done, not going to hurt the Raiders at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair point but I mean the guy got pushed out in a power play and it’s been nothing but dysfunction since he left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leader Posted April 20, 2019 Author Share Posted April 20, 2019 Any issues with the GBPs 2019 schedule need to be kept in context of some really nasty bad schedule making: TPA Week 4 @ Los Angeles Week 5 @ New Orleans Week 5 vs Carolina (Home game played in London) Week 7 BYE WEEK Week 8 @ Tennessee Week 9 @ Seattle ESPN: Even worse is being on the road three-consecutive weeks, with trips to Los Angeles and London, and facing the top two teams in the NFC in 2018 in back-to-back weeks. During that three-week span, the Bucs will travel 28,144 miles round trip. The only consolation is a bye week immediately after. Unlike the last two years, where the Bucs' divisional games were heavily back-loaded, the Bucs will play all but one of their six divisional games before December.

Leader Posted April 20, 2019 Author Share Posted April 20, 2019 NFL Rumors: More details of Russell Wilson‘s landmark extension are emerging. Wilson’s 2020 and ’21 base salaries — $19MM apiece — will become fully guaranteed if he is on the Seahawks roster five days after Super Bowls LIV and LV, respectively. With that a near-certainty, Wilson’s $107MM in total guarantees are practically full guarantees. Wilson will earn a $19MM base salary in 2022 and ’23, according to OverTheCap. This deal leaves Wilson with cap numbers of $26.29MM (2019), $31MM (2020), $32MM (’21), $37MM (’22) and $39MM (’23). The eighth-year quarterback’s base salary was slated to be $17MM this year; the new deal converted much of that money into a signing bonus, with Wilson now attached to a $5MM base in 2019. The new contract raised Wilson’s 2019 cap number by just $1MM. Additionally, the contract includes a $6MM escalator clause — which would bring the total dollar figure up to $146MM — for Wilson’s 2023 salary, per CBS Sports’ Joel Corry (on Twitter). Unspecified performance-based incentives from 2020-22 can bump the Pro Bowler’s $21MM salary in 2023 to $27MM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leader Posted April 21, 2019 Author Share Posted April 21, 2019 (edited) NY Post: NFL draft five-year analysis Criteria: The rankings are based on: how many games the draft pick has played, Pro Bowl appearances, first-team All-Pro selections and awards like MVP and Rookie of the Year. We also factored in how much the team has won during the five years, because players on losing teams tend to have an easier path to playing time. Here are the rankings from best to worst, with last year’s ranking in parentheses. 4. Bears (19) Pro Bowlers: 7 Best Pick: Tarik Cohen (2017, fourth) Worst Pick: Kevin White (2015, first) General manager Ryan Pace made the trade of the year last season for Khalil Mack, but his work in the draft really helped build last year’s division champion. Cohen, Eddie Jackson and Mitch Trubisky, all taken in 2017, look like long-term stars for the team. 12. Vikings (3) Pro Bowlers: 4 Best Pick: Anthony Barr (2014, first) Worst Pick: Laquon Treadwell (2016, first) Minnesota built a strong roster through the draft in the early part of this decade, but they have started to slip. The window is closing on their current group of players. 18. Packers (8) Pro Bowlers: 2 Best Pick: Davante Adams (2014, second) Worst Pick: Jason Spriggs (2016, second) Part of the drama around Aaron Rodgers and former coach Mike McCarthy was caused by a lack of talent around Rodgers. Green Bay is wasting its quarterback’s prime. 25. Lions (18) Pro Bowlers: 1 Best Pick: Eric Ebron (2014, first) Worst Pick: Ameer Abdullah (2015, second) Here is how bad it has been for the Lions: Ebron is the only player they have drafted in the past five years to make the Pro Bowl, but he did it with the Colts last year. Last 32. Bills (31) Pro Bowlers: 0 Best Pick: TreDavious White (2017, first) Worst Pick: Sammy Watkins (2014, first) Bills GM Brandon Beane is trying to clean up from the previous regime’s major mistakes in the draft like the big trade for Watkins in 2014.
