    The consensus seemed to be that 12 was too high for Nix but I don't think they had much choice, especially after the Falcons drafted Penix (?????).  It would have been nice to trade down 8-10 spots and still get Nix or Penix but the Raiders were heavily rumored to be looking to draft a QB as well and there was too much risk. 

     

    Payton was going to get a QB.  It seemed like he may have preferred McCarthy but liked Nix almost as well.  There was talk of the Broncos trading up to take McCarthy but given all the picks they've given up over the last few years, not having to do that and still getting someone you want is probably about as good as they hoped for.

     

    I like that Nix started a ton of games in college.  One-year wonders don't seem to work out very well.  There seem to be a lot of questions about how his experience will translate to the NFL ("all he did was throw bubble screens").  Only 44 of his 398 attempts were more than 20 yards downfield.  But he was still very efficient on those throws (52.3%, 12 TDs, 1 INT).  And 37 TDs with 2 INTs is awfully good.  The NFL is an accuracy game.  You have to be able to stretch the field to loosen things up but being able to put most passes where they need to be is paramount.  Nix seems to be good at that.

     

    I actually would have been good with any of Nix, Penix or McCarthy.  And the Broncos had to do something to try to get the QB spot figured out.  So it seems to have worked out about as well as it could have.

     

    Unbelievable - no faith in Russell Zach Wilson? :lol:

     

    I saw the Nix pick was on Kiper's "headscratchers" but I think he's pretty good. Maybe the pick was a little high, but like you said, they don't have much collateral to deal with for trading picks.

     

    McCarthy is one that I don't get the hype. He reminds me of the old Bama QBs where he was just asked to not screw up because the defense and running game would take care of the rest.

     

    We'll find out in a few months I guess.

  3. How's everyone feeling about their team's picks last night?

     

    Cowboys added some value by trading back and got the guy they seemed to want all along. I do worry that he played RT almost exclusively. Although he didn't allow a sack last year.

     

    Bo Nix time in Denver... Seemed a little high but sounds like that's they Payton wanted @Mavric

     

    49ers took a WR? Have to get @Guy Chamberlin's take on that

    JB wins his semi-final match against Messinbrink from PSU. The disrespect he showed JB in this match is another reason why I hate PSU.

     

     

    I'd say he had enough of that clown lol

    Probably an unpopular take here, but can we just stop the fawning over TO and continuing to name stuff after him? He has the field already, let's move forward, or at least honor someone else. It feels like Stockholm Syndrome to me anymore.

     

    I put "runningblind badass football complex" in the suggestion box but they obviously didn't like it
