Official 2022 NFL Draft Thread

[rocnrik]

Other than Wilson,Rogers,Carr .. is there any Free agent QBs out there better than this draft class ? If not my first pick is Willis .. if we can get a FA QB then I go BPA at 11 or trade down for more Picks .. my gut says we are gonna pass on a QB in the draft with the first pick ..

Winston and Mitch T are the only noticeable guys

Hard to see Willis being there at 11

I'm not sure I'd bother with Trubisky. TH showed way more leadership etc. than Trubisky's shown in his career. If Winston is the best option available to us pre-draft I'd take him and draft a QB, either @ 11 if it's clear any FA is a bridge, else see what's there in round 2 or 3. I'd take Willis or Pickett at 11 (some mocks have them going to the Panthers and Broncos), but I'm not sure about Corral. If Wilson, Jimmy G or Winston were on board I'd lean towards BPA @11 and go QB later.

After this franchise's experience with GR3 and Haskins, we should know enough to shy away from college QB's who shy away from film review and the mental side of game prep because they think they can rely upon their powerful arms. I would hope that we know by now that that type of QB is a disaster waiting to happen in the NFL.

So I listened to Sheehan pod and he gushed about Willis. He fills the need of an athletic QB

I just don’t like that pick for us

I agree. A much more stable organization can develop him, but this place is just asking to fuck him up.

Unfortunately, an "athletic quarterback" who is not committed to understanding and learning the mental side of the NFL is frequently referred to as a "bust".

Yup…so multiple sources say Pittsburgh is interested, they have a stable org that would be perfect for him. I would love to trade back with Pitt if Willis is there for their first round pick next year. Dream scenario.

Did someone say he wasn’t committed to that?

Yeah it's still weird being on EST. Ruins my standard political posting plan. Drink while you all fall asleep, then drop all amazing thoughts for y'all to wake up to.

That draft would be anazing!
