LETS GOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!   This was my guy at WR. I'm so hype right now. I just hope he follows the history of my guys at WR (AJ Brown, Pittman, Tyler Lockett).

If this happens all these young QB in the AFC South will be crazy.

 

 

 

I can see the LA Rams, wanting Levis to groom behind Stafford. Would actually be a better spot for Levis, given that Liam Coen, his former Kentucky OC in 2021, was also Rams OC in 2022 before going back to Kentucky for 2023 season. I am sure Sean McVay will have plenty of inside info on him.

 

The offensive system of TN vs the offensive system of the Rams - I am sure, if given a choice, Levis would prefer the Rams there.

They are in the Anthony Richardson thread.

McShay: Will Levis Gives Some Teams Carson Wentz Vibes amid 2023 NFL Draft Slide

I would say many even common laymen got that vibe, alright.  :D

 

From the beginning of draft season, media was trying to hype using the same logic that NFL teams would like Levis for the same reason that he's able to absorb hits and still make plays. That he was able to play in spite of so many injuries, when other 3 top QBs never got a mention of their injuries during last couple of seasons in the same breath. That he has played in NFL systems, had so many checks and calls with verbiage similar to pro style. That he's more pro ready than the guy who has not played enough in college. That his athleticism is too good to ignore even though the same athleticism wasn't seen when it mattered for mobility and escapability in the pocket. Etc.,

Who are some of your favorite guys still available to be drafted?

This draft has a lot of talent at similar level from round 2 to 4.

 

I wouldn't be surprised to hear names people thought would go later but certain teams like to get certain players at perceived earlier spot than what we think. 

 

I think it was seen even from #12 & #18 selections by Lions, and from #26 onwards in the first round. 

 

I'm sure Vikings will end up drafting players whom we haven't heard much :D

Di you understand why the media was selling that?   Because that’s what their sources in the NFL were telling them.  
 

The NFL doesn’t like inviting guys to sit in the green room only to have them NOT get picked.   So the NFL surveys all 32 teams in which players to invite.  And it was NFL GM’s who recommended inviting Levis. 
 

It wasn’t the the media or the commissioners office.   It’s all 32 GMs.   That’s who decided to invite Levis.  In all, 17 players were invited.   That’s all.

I wanted Hooker but I think he goes early. I still want us to draft a QB -- Tune, Haener...

I was talking more about the talking points in the media and everywhere. 

 

For example, like saying great completion percentage equals to WOW accuracy. 

 

NFL teams and GMs don't say that.

      Tyquan to IR

      By jvan1973 · Posted

      It's not that their replacements are not good.   It's the depth behind the replacements.     Also. There isn't a 3T on this team better than Buckner.  To say so is nonsense

      There comes a point where your depth isn’t that good when you lose this many players. We aren’t talking about losing one guy or two. If Paye can’t go we are talking about half of our starters and depth. Just because you replace them doesn’t mean they are any good.

      JT has mild high ankle sprain

      By ColtsBlueFL · Posted

      A high ankle sprain, even if considered mild, is a different animal than the typical 'rolled' ankle sprain, and takes at least twice as long (or more) for recovery.   Though we don't know for certain yet, this is in the realm of possibility. Besides, it may be the same ankle where he's had prior history in 2022 as well as surgery in early 2023. Taking this into consideration, a multi-week absence could be an outcome for him in the short term. An improperly healed high ankle sprain has long term ramifications to consider, as well.

      Yes, and I'm sure the Colts will field a full rotation of D lineman, with a few having to play more snaps than before,  The replacements will be as good as the linemen that won't play....Defo, Lewis, and Paye.  That's my opinion.

      Do you see any progress with Richardson?

      By Patrick Miller · Posted

      I thought Flacco did pretty dang good. It was nice seeing passes not go over our receivers heads. AR played pretty well in the short time he was in there but I still didn’t see anything that would tell us he’s fixed his accuracy on short/intermediate throws. That being said AR is the starter unless he plays his way out or gets injured again.
