If we miss out on Teddy, Bortles is the only QB that i would feel comfortable spending a pick on. Assuming he can be grabbed in the second or third. I think Mariota in round 1 is way too high, not the right value. 

 

Bortles could be really good. Everyone has been looking for "this years russel wilson" Bortles is probably that guy.

 

 

Also, as an aside, now with Murray tearing his ACL, i could see him dropping to the 5th or around there and being worth a flyer.

I think we need to keep and eye on Carr. He could be the steal of the draft.

It would be interesting to see Russell Wilson on a team thats not loaded all around on both sides of the ball, like Seattle....or to see another QB play in Seattle for a few games to see if theres any significant drop off. I don't think thered be much.

I think he may be the closest thing to a draft sleeper at his position.  Reminds me of a poor man's Andrew Luck, which is obviously a compliment and would be excellent value-wise if selected in round two.  Doesn't possess Luck's raw talent, but he's a big guy who can read the field, make every throw in the playbook, and has good pocket movement.  I'd roll the dice on him.

Those players were not sure things. Not like Bridgewater, anyway. How can a player with work ethic questions (Russell) be considered a sure thing??? And Curry? - he was drafted like 4th. Obviously not everyone thought he was a sure thing.

Russell and Curry were both "sure things" in their respective draft.


Curry was often billed as the safest pick in the draft with ability to play all 3 LB spots and a future pro bowler wherever he played.


Russell was supposed to be one of the top QBs in the league within the first couple years of being drafted. Supposed great leader to go along with his obvious physical tools.


These players like Bridgewater were labeled as a sure fire success in the NFL. There are no sure things in the draft.

well not to get too off topic but I think they built the system around Wilson and it works extremely well. Would have to be a QB with a similar skill set. But Wilson has very good accuracy and can read a defense very well.

Danny Watkins was also a safe pick.

LOL, Russell, Curry, and now Watkins as "examples" of a sure thing??? Watkins was drafted like 25th!!!....  

 

Bridgewater will be drafted #1 and has no questions other than his frame. Not with play, work ethic, character, or intelligence. JaMarcus Russell had several questions in the same area. Not a sure thing.

where is this hype of teddy from the media? surely if hes thaaaaat good he should be getting some? oh wait hes not even the best prospect in the draft.  hes in the class of tannehill and alex smith as a prospect.

He was also a 28 year old guard. Didn't stop people from labeling him the "safest pick".

"Watkins is the safest pick in the entire draft — the one player you can confidently say will be in the Pro Bowl in 2012. He’s the best guard on the board, and some NFL teams were looking at him as both a center and tackle."

---

Again why the heck would we draft another LT? That makes no sense what so ever. We just had 2 and then traded one and now people want to draft another one? This draft has some pass rushers and QBs, but yea lets keep drafting OLmen.

 

Didn't you know?!!?

 

Ketchman said they were the safest and smartest picks at the top of the draft.

Worst to 1st.  Curse Reversed!

Well, if the Watkins example pacifies you from missing out on Bridgewater then have at it...

Couldnt be cause they're a high team need right? No not at all..


Doofus..

I'll be just fine with Clowney / Bortles if it were to shake out that way.

So tackle is a high team need, not interior 3?

 

You would take an interior OL high?

 

Doofus indeed, Ketchmanite.

...denial ain't just a river in...

 

 

Wake up. We're not getting the 2nd pick in the draft, nor the first. No Clowney, no Bridgewater.....

 

We're going to get a couple more ugly wins vs a couple more of the bad teams on our schedule and were going to slot ourselves right on out of the top picks. Its happening right under your nose and yet you cannot see it.

There's a long way between now and May, but I know that won't stop you from complaining kid.  :thumbsup:
