    Would be surprised if 3 WR are taken in the top 8.

    If it goes 3 QBs, 3 WRs, Alt, Turner, then someone will be offering a good trade for QB4. Get 2 more picks before 75 and take the best combo of 3T/Edge/WR/OL that you can at that point with those 3 picks.

    I want Verse in the mid-1st, Pearsall in the mid-2nd, and Kiran Amegadjie or Dewayne Walker at 75

    Im worried about Verse’s old balls. Could see it being a Velus situation.

    Isnt he one of the Covid seniors that’s like 24 years old?

    He’s 23 and that’s an ideal age for a rookie IMO… why would you want a 21 y/o rookie that is still maturing and who you will have a to make a critical decision on before 25 as opposed to one that is two years older?

    Because 21 year olds likely have more development to go and thus a higher upside than someone that may be tapped out physically

    Yeah I just see that way differently. The key to decision making in the draft is having as much information as possible and how a player progresses from 21 to 23 is part of that. Verse isn’t a developmental player which is fine; it means the teams have more information on him and fewer question marks imo

    again, to the nature of the draft being a crap shoot: teams should be selecting based on who can help them now and who they can see earning a second contract, who cares how many years the guy has until his body wears down, trust me the decision makers in a front office know they have to make good picks to be where they’re at the following year much less ten years from now

    He’s 23 and I believe started in college as a TE. It’s not like that firefighter from Baylor the Eagles took.

    Was Caleb Williams held back a year? He appears to be a full year older than expected for a junior.

    I have nothing to base this on other than feels but I think one of the qbs is going to fall a bit, either Daniels or McCarthy. I think the top two are going to come back around to Caleb/Maye and then it’s going to get weird. I should also disclose I bet the o5.5 on JJ.

    We’ve all known what the pick is going to be for a long time but I still find it amusing Poles isn’t trying any sort of smoke screen at all. Most NFL GM’s “all options are on the table, there’s a lot of top talent, all these QBs have traits that I love.” Poles “I made my kid watch 5 hours of Caleb highlights, changed his phone background, and bought him a custom jersey that Caleb autographed for him.”
