Quote:If thats the case then Mayock should quit. What have scouts and Gms have been hinting at? Cause im pretty sure there were NFL GMs spouting on and on during the college season about Bridgewater and none of it was bad.

 

Even opposing players and HC's who faced him gave him praise and props.

 

What they've been hinting at (that you and others in love with QBs in this draft have been ignoring all along) is that it seems like many, if not most clubs don't feel there's a franchise QB in this draft.

 

I know it's difficult to accept if you've fallen for a particular player, but maybe those guys who weren't sold on this QB class knew what they were talking about all along.

 

Once again, perception follows reality.  It always lags the truth, rather than be ahead of it.  It's very understandable how perception changes now that the media gets a better feeling about how teams really feel about these guys.

 

Just look at the evidence.  More and more analysts are shifting to that opinion, which a few have had all along.

<p style="margin-left:40px;">But -- say it with me, so it sticks over the next five weeks -- THERE IS NO FRANCHISE QUARTERBACK IN THIS DRAFT!

<p style="margin-left:40px;"> 

<p style="margin-left:40px;">I wrote on Tuesday that it wouldn't shock me to see Teddy Bridgewater completely fall out of the first round.

<p style="margin-left:40px;"> 

<p style="margin-left:40px;">...and...

<p style="margin-left:40px;"> 

<p style="margin-left:40px;">As I've mentioned before, Phil Simms was spot-on when he said on my SiriusXM Radio show, "Schein on Sports," that Geno Smith is better than any quarterback in this year's draft. In a related story, Smith was a second-round pick last year.

<p style="margin-left:40px;"> 

Now, if that's not an indictment of this QB draft class, I certainly don't know what is.  Believe what you wish.  It's obvious these aren't the kind of things you want to hear.  But maybe, just maybe they know what they're talking about.
