Sounds like he’ll be overdrafted. If he goes to a good/great situation he could certainly be successful though. Unfortunately the higher you’re drafted typically the worse the situation is.

He's not going to be a bust like I think Caleb will be, but I think McCarthy is going to be at best an Andy Dalton. Talk about overhype...
Re: ***Official 2024 Draft Thread!!***
Ugh Not the Commanders!
League sources believe Washington Commanders general manager Adam Peters has already made up his mind towards selecting QB JJ McCarthy with the 2nd overall pick of the Draft.

JJ over Maye sure but Jayden?

Re: ***Official 2024 Draft Thread!!***
Jayden is a 5th year college player with a slight build and only one year of great production throwing to 2 obviously elite WRs. I can see why teams may value another QB higher. I'm not saying I do, but I can see why the NFL does. They just watched another #1 overall QB with a slight build look completely overwhelmed by the league.
Now, this is also that time of year where it doesn't really matter what the media or X folks say. Right?

Who will draft Myles Cole and what round
Re: ***Official 2024 Draft Thread!!***
Lay down all your wants for a moment and tell me who would be a better fit for our team - Byron Murphy or Darius Robinson?
Re: ***Official 2024 Draft Thread!!***
In terms of prospect hype comparisons
Caleb - "generational", Luck/Burrow
Maye - one step down from generational, Trevor Lawrence, shades of Burrow
Daniels - yearly dice roll on a mobile QB, see Stroud/Love of last year
McCarthy - winning college QB with an arm, Winston/Mayfield

Re: ***Official 2024 Draft Thread!!***
Daniels’s pro day looked awful and stiff. But a guy like that doesn’t excel in that particular setting.

I don't think anyone had Burrow to the level of TL as a prospect. Until the Natty and the injury, most had Tua as the better prospect. Caleb, Luck, and TL were fawned over since they were in High School.Sdbucs wrote: ↑Thu Mar 28, 2024 12:24 pm In terms of prospect hype comparisons

I see McCarthy as a Mac Jones, Daniel Jones type prospect.
These are just prospect rankings/comparisons, not how they turned out, but the Burrow thing I'm pretty adamant about as many questioned his arm strength and was barely on the radar for draft mocks until his final year at LSU.
edit: I see a lot of comparisons to Lamar that I do Daniels. People still question his ability to QB at a high level. His legs are his number 1 attribute. That wasn't said about Stroud.
Winston was also pretty highly coveted, there were tank talks for Winston like Tua before his final season or TL, etc.
Another I'll throw in is I see Milton as a Kyle Boller prospect. Insane arm, but super inaccurate in College. I think some team will over draft him due to his insane arm.
Re: ***Official 2024 Draft Thread!!***
There goes his top 3 chance. Very good chance McCarthy overtakes him as top 3 QB.
My brother is a devoted fan of the Vikings, and he firmly believes that the team will make a trade to acquire him. Give up tons of picks

Re: ***Official 2024 Draft Thread!!***
Prediction
Caleb Williams is highly likely to be chosen as the first overall pick.
The Commanders choose McCarthy.
The Patriots choose either Maye or Daniels.

Re: ***Official 2024 Draft Thread!!***
I was a Caleb truther last season but after seeing the weird shit he does like the fingernail polish and lipstick....yeah I'm not so sure anymore.
Obviously, the talent is there. But I can already tell you that he's going to be a high maintenance pain in the ass based purely on his chosen attire.

If what he does in his personal life in anyway bothers you, the real pain in the ass is in your mirror.BucsNBills wrote: ↑Thu Mar 28, 2024 6:51 pm I was a Caleb truther last season but after seeing the weird shit he does like the fingernail polish and lipstick....yeah I'm not so sure anymore.

Re: ***Official 2024 Draft Thread!!***
Some draft analysts believe that Malik Naber is a superior receiver compared to Harrison Jr. I don't know about that.
Re: ***Official 2024 Draft Thread!!***
I think Nabers will be the better pro.

Re: ***Official 2024 Draft Thread!!***
Depends where they end up. Catching passes from Kyler Murray, Caleb Williams or Justin Herbert may give you a chance at a better career than Daniel Jones, Will Levis, or Aidan O’Connell.
Personally I think they’re both gonna be great. Nabers will be Justin Jefferson while Harrison will be Ceedee Lamb. The numbers prolly wont diverge much. Also think Odunze will be great.
Re: ***Official 2024 Draft Thread!!***
I agree, the route running and technique of Harrison Jr makes him an elite prospect. Also makes him far closer to his ceiling than Nabers
Re: ***Official 2024 Draft Thread!!***
Fascinating
Re: ***Official 2024 Draft Thread!!***
The craziest thing is that Drake May was literally the #2 name everyone threw around all year for us to tank for and now he may be there at 26.
