Somewhat early 2024 Draft thread

[murphysxm]

One thing I heard on the radio for why JJM is shooting up drafts is that a lot of college QBs don't run an NFL-style offense. They don't call plays (they get cards?) and JJM is the only one that has been calling plays, understands how that all works. So just keep that in mind.

I would hope NFL scouts and GM's aren't this short sited in their analysis. This is a very easy skill to teach

I heard Maye wears slip-on loafers and has pretty much his whole life. Can't tie his shoes all that efficiently because he only ever ties shoes when he wears his cleats. For this reason, teams are concerned that he's setting himself up for some bad ankle injuries. That's why he's dropping so much.

Presnap reads on Ds and audibling is not a “very easy skill” to learn. Where did you get that idea?

But it IS a skill that has to be taught. It takes time to learn. If you already know how to call the play Trips Right Yo-Yo 60 Y Stick vs Play #44 on a card with a picture. It's understanding the language the schemes, the plays—Formation + Motion/Shift + Blocking Scheme + Tags/Routes. If all of that is new, of course you will take time to learn it. Just saying JJM has an advantage. Caleb, if you believe he's the best QB has greater skill, but still has to learn all of this. That's all I'm saying. He'll be fine...in time.

From the instruction manual (Techmo), you simply press the X button and "Audible" appears. Then press the A button to change the play, and the line will shift. Press the B button to cancel the audible.
It's really not that complicated

If Nix or Penix goes to MINN will that change anything for you? Good or bad?

If they sit back and get Penix at 23 I'll be ok with that. If they pay to move up for him...then I'll be disappointed that they couldn't move up earlier in the first instead.

Right.

Imagine missing out on Mahomes because the Texas Tech offense was basically high school crossed with air raid, and not an NFL STYLE OFFENSE (tm)

Oh wait, that's exactly what happened...

"So just keep that in mind"

At this point I'm pretty sure I'd rather draft Penix than JJM straight up, and especially so at relative cost.

How do you rank this with painted nails and eating bananas with the peel?
