4 minutes ago, Old Man and the COLTS said:
Penix will sit for at least a year
He's not a young man. There's not much time for him to sit before he's "middle aged" in NFL QB years.

Maybe they don't feel comfortable being interviewed.
Every player looks like Ray Charles

And another pair of dark glasses

My money is on Joe Alt to Chargers. Will I be right?

Are dark sunglasses at dusk a Thing now?

I never believed the rumors that the Colts were trying to move up for MHJ. The price would have just been too steep.

Do the Vikings trade up into this spot?

It's Jayden Blues, the cousin, with the dark glasses!

Fairly predictable so far. Now --- will the Pats trade down?
-
Ok, do the Potomac Drainage Basin Indigenous Persons take Jaden Daniels?
-
ESPN shows all the Caleb Williams clips before the pick -- and then the Bears pick Jayden Daniels

When the Panthers traded this pick to the Bears, they never dreamed they would have been this bad, and the pick was the #1 pick.

Is it a spoiler to announce the first pick of the NFL Draft?
What are the chances that the Bears take their full time before they send the card up?

3-time pro bowler for the Bengals. Multiple 10+ sack seasons.
He's already 29. How much does he have left?
I would say only a 2-year window, max.

What did Greeny say about the Vikes and our quest for a QB this year?
Mostly what you already knew -- that there's noise out there that they may trade up to get one of the QB's. But that it's also very weird to consider trading up that far to get the fourth graded QB.

Listening to Mike Greenberg this morning. All the rumors of quarterbacks, when they'll be taken, which teams would trade up to get them....
I'm just reminded of how overwhelmingly glad I am that the COLTS are not being mentioned at all in the QB draft follies this year!

I don't believe this would ever happen as the price would be much too steep. The only way this is even a remote possibility is if the Pats do not like Maye or McCarthy . Then this would also need the QB needy teams to feel the same as NE . The value of Maye , if he's a franchise QB is multiple firsts. IMO , you can't give up that for a WR
Agreed. Just because they're "in talks" doesn't mean they are making the arrangements. "In talks" could actually mean something like this:
Ballard -- So, what would it take for us to move up to your #3 spot?
Patriots -- All of your picks this year, your first round picks for the next three years, your car, your house, and your firstborn child.
Ballard -- Right. I'll get back to you.

Bold prediction: NOBODY in the top 5 trades down. I would think that if they were going to do it, they would have done it by now.

Are there players that you feel are getting too much hype?
Who are your sleepers?
@Defjamz26@w87r . @stitches @John Hammonds Anyone else...
Overhyped
Cooper DeJean may be getting too much hype. He's a multi-position player, which means he may not be "great" at any single position. And he's coming off of a pretty bad injury, and we don't truly know if his post-injury performance is going to equal what it was before.
Xavier Worthy made a splash by setting a record 40-time at the combine. He's still extremely light. He has a high drop rate. His pro comp is Darnell Mooney, who the Bears took in the 5th round, had one 1,000 yard season, and was eventually signed by the Falcons.
Sleepers
Julian Pearl is an OT from Illinois. Former defensive end who has athleticism and length, with a huge wingspan. 2-time all Big Ten honorable mention.
JD Bertrand, LB, Notre Dame. One of my favorite players in the draft. A little undersized, with a small catch radius, but makes splash plays. 3-year starter, 2-year team captain, 2-year team leader in tackles.

I look at JJ McCarthy like Alabama QB AJ McCarron. A non-elite QB who won a college championship.
