Exactly. I'm pretty sure one of the top 5 WR's will be there between 1-15-1-20 where Ryans/Caserio will most likely be picking. If Bowers falls to say 1-10 and Caserio has pick 1-15, I'm looking to trade up for Bowers, even though he's coming off of ankle surgery. He's that good. IMHO
If I had pick #1 I’d try to trade down to #2 to take Maye. Hell I might take Maye #1 to avoid Williams’ foolishness. Be prepared for holdouts and trade demands…
Justin Fields can be a free agent after the 24' season. If they stick with him they could conceivably draft MHJ AND Brock Bowers. Otherwise they can possibly trade him and pick Mayes.
Not completely sold on Caleb but you have to take him with that Carolina pick. Very conceivable they have a shot at MHJ with their own pick.
The Bears have a real chance of turning their franchise around quickly with this draft. They will land 2 of the top 3 picks and there are 2 potential franchise QBs and a franchise WR right for the taking.
Neither Maye nor Williams have impressed me that much this season. Does that mean anything? Absolutely not.
He's a great college QB...he makes the most out of broken plays. Utah's got a great defense though, and have played the whole season without their starting QB
UH Fans may **** themselves, but the PAC refs just now didn't choose to review a 3rd down run that looked like a 1D...turned into 4th and inches. Then the offense ran the ball and got a 1D with 19 seconds left and some TOs, close to Utah FG range to beat USC @Bobbythegreat
The thing is when Stroud played an #11 rand Utah (with an #11 rank D) in the 2022 Rose Bowl, he shredded them for 573 yards, 6 TDs, 1 INT. People are starting to notice Williams performances again top 20 defenses. Drake Maye’s flaws are starting to be noticed. His TD rate is way down and has a tendency to play down to to competition. UNC lost to a 1-5 Virginia team where Maye threw the game sealing INT. Other QBs are creeping up the draft boards.
You knew nothing about Stroud last year. Maye plays well against good competition. Compare the teams overall talent. Maye is carrying a team with a talent deficit weekly. If you watched the interception, which I know you didn’t because you don’t watch football, you would know he was hit as he threw.
Are there any of the available guys for trade worth our Cleveland pick? Would Devonte Adams or Chase Young be worth the gamble?
Check again. I posted about Stroud September of 2022. I can link to the post. I have forgotten more football than you will ever know. Don’t worry, your hopes for Levis and Maye are still alive. Maye is is thanking the football gods that WR Walker was allowed to play the last 4 games. He is carrying Maye. Maye sure has a habit of losing to awful teams.
