Thread: 2024 random pre-draft ramblings

Unless everything I’ve read about Bo Nix physically is wrong then Zach Wilson gives them the best chance of having a FQB.

Jaded you should get excited about the TE we signed out of Utah as a FA. Guy is a Rugby player from Australia who came over to play football and has serious athletic skills but just needs to learn the game. He has prototype size 6'5" 251lbs and has very good speed. I can't find a 40 time but my guess would be he would be faster than what the experts claim to be the average for a pass catching TE of 4.62. He looks fast on film.

I also love the LT we signed out of Wyoming. I'm having a hard time finding the clip but someone asked Tavondre Swear who the nastiest OL was that they played against and without hesitation he said "Wyoming"

He said Wyoming was just big and physical and gave him the most fits. Crum has serious athletic ability and prototypical size. Pretty surprised he didn't get drafted just from his combine work alone. He's 6-6 318 and ran a sub 5 40. Developmental project with very high upside for an UDFA IMHO.
We knocked it out of the park in UDFA s. The edge rusher and RB from Memphis were both good pickups.

To expound on this I found an article talking about it and you can find the actual quote starting around 5:40 into the video.

I actually have high hopes for Crum. I'm surprised Jaded isn't more excited about him, he has elite LT measurables and Combine work. Was shocked he wasn't drafted. I really think this kid has something.

The kid isn’t running for office (although he’s far more articulate than the ones that are).

Draft Scout has him 4.68, taken from his Pro Day, legit NFL speed. I hope he beats out the SP teachers pet, #82, whatever his name is.

Dolcic (one last chance), Lucas Krull, Yassmin and Zack Kuntz (premier athlete from ‘23 class, practice squad player).

Dolcic looks good when he’s actually on the field

So did I.

Somehow people rank Quinn Ewers above all of them. There’s also Jaylon Milroe, I mean . . . if you have any interest in modern QB talent.

Next year’s class is just fine, if Nix doesn’t beat out Stidham and compete with Mahomes then it’s time to Josh Rosen his ass. No more passing on Josh Allen because you have Trevor Siemien and Paxton Lynch. What’s good for Drew Lock is good for Bo Nix.

Throw in Jaxson Dart. Kid has solid QB1 talent.
