Tattoos? On MY black quarterback?
Bears did a hilarious trade up for Trubs. Panthers took a white RB at number 8. The Falcons pick said gently caress on live TV and seems pretty awesome. Post your tears here.


Here's mine: he only put up 11 reps. What the gently caress are you doing Gettleman? Watch us trade up now for Juju Smith-Schuster or something. gently caress.

And I like every other pick made by NFC south teams tonight. What the hell man?

Very happy with the Bucs pick, they got gifted an awesome opportunity and now they're gonna have a baller receiving corps.

Now you're just some QB that I used to know
Wait, so the Bears not only signed a lovely QB to a big contract in the offseason but also traded up to take a QB 2nd overall?

Humphrey was definitely an overdraft, and in a really deep corner class, but I don't hate the pick. With no good options at pass rusher or WR corner is a good spot to solidify and Humphrey has a really high ceiling. This may be the first 1st round pick I've been on board with since Jimmy Smith in 2011.

I am pretty happy with Mahomes, but I definitely think he'd still have been there closer to 20 than 10. Still, the Chiefs selling next year's 1st round pick means that they're going to be loving committed to making sure this works, so I expect Andy Reid to pull out all the stops, sit Mahomes for a year, and then unleash a magnificent funslinging machine.

Nobody move and nobody gets hurt.

I am extremely pleased with the Colts taking Hooker, mostly because I had honestly never once considered he would be there. Safety wasn't our biggest need (our CB situation is fairly dire), but hard to pass up an elite talent like that when he falls to you.

A+++ would draft again

I hope my fellow Bengals posters are happy with that pick because I'm ecstatic. What a great pick. Hopefully the defensive side of this draft is as deep as everyone says because the Bengals are gonna have to make a fun on that side of the ball only for most of the rest of this draft but that offensive round 1 pick, ooee!!!

Holy poo poo. The Seahawks are gonna have a REALLY fun day tomorrow. Starting, I think, with one of Forrest Lamp or Kevin King, one of which I would have been overjoyed to get at 26.

Bad, very bad!
Welp, I'm terrified. And excited, but also terrified. Here's what I said about Mahomes way back in February:

Grittybeard posted:

He's the toolsiest of tools guys, I love him as a developmental pick. He's probably going to rise up way higher than he should go and not get the chance to sit and develop though, he's going to need time. In addition to everything air raid his footwork in particular is just completely awful, and his arm is good enough that he sees no problem throwing off his back foot across his body, which isn't going to fly at the next level and frankly got him into trouble at Tech way too often.

There's a quote I can't find right now from Patrick Mahomes Sr (his dad, who is a character himself) about one of Aaron Rodgers ridiculous throws: "Holy poo poo there's only two guys on the planet that can make that throw, and I'm proud to say my son is one of those motherfuckers." He might be more right than wrong, the problem is Mahomes is willing to try that poo poo constantly with not great mechanics. The good news is most of his stuff is in theory fixable with good coaching and time to learn.

e: Put it this way, I want the Chiefs to draft him, but if they do I want Alex Smith to finish out his contract that ends after 2018.

I said I wanted to draft him but at the time I was thinking at the Chiefs original pick as a complete overdraft or in the 2nd round. Not Trading 2 firsts and a third to move up for him.

Under no circumstances do I want to see him on the field this year outside of preseason. Even if Alex goes down I want Tyler Bray or whoever the hell to finish out the year. He has so many things to fix. On the bright side I do think KC is the perfect situation to perhaps turn him into an NFL quarterback, and his ceiling in theory is ridiculous.

One way or another poo poo is going to change, because Patrick Mahomes is different from Alex Smith in just about every way other than the fact that they can both move a little bit. But hell even that's different, Alex moves to get the gently caress out and run, Mahomes moves to buy time to throw the ball downfield. It'll be a new world whenever he gets his chance, which hopefully won't be particularly soon.

It was especially interesting given that three days ago, people were strongly suggesting that not a single QB would be drafted in the top 12. I think this year's draft just reconfirms 2 things:
- Teams are always gonna try and trade up for QBs
- There is an entirely different trade value chart for when a team is trying to get a QB that is bonkers

and maybe a third thing that we already knew, which is that "teams have no idea what any other team is really up to, but everyone thinks that someone is after their guy and this often leads to really bad decisions"

Revelry in the Dark

The Giants came away with a really good pick in Evan Engram, he's got elite speed (4.42 in the 40, and a 6.92 in the three cone drill) and could probably play WR from time to time. A matchup nightmare if you ask me

the way our offense is set up he's going to put up numbers really quickly, I'm excited. hoping he doesn't catch the injury bug
