***2024 NFL Draft***

I don't understand that trade, to move up 1 spot?

The Falcons scared the s**t out of them.

I don't understand that trade, to move up 1 spot?

They were worried that Denver was going to move up ahead of them. So they effectively give up a day 3 pick to ensure they get the guy they want

Besides Brady, who was the last team to make the Superbowl with a QB they acquired in free agency? Maybe you count Nick Foles? Although he only played in the post season.

To be clear, I'm not arguing with you that a team selecting QBs at the top of the draft every 3-4 years is a recipe for success, but the alternative doesn't have a great track record either.

Well I'd expand on my earlier point to include free agents or trades. Rams won a SB after getting Stafford through a trade. Broader point is it just makes sense to get your QB either from free agency or trade for a proven guy instead of rolling a $50 million dice on a top 5 pick who will probably bust out.

Gonna be McCarthy. Worth it at 10. I’m happy with it.

 

[clonedude]

Don't get the trade. Jets not going for McCarthy so he would still be there. Hope they didn't give up much.

It’s not the Jets they were worried about.

At least they still have #23 and didn't give that up to get him at 5

Yep. That's where I'm at.

 

[Marcelason78]

Hope the Vikes can get Arnold or Verse at #23, but they’ll both probably be gone by #17. Johnny Newton might be their pick there.

 

[FerShizzle]

JJ McCarthy is a slightly more athletic, slightly more arm talent version of Brock Purdy. Watch out NFC north.

I’d guess Dejean the Waver if he’s available.

[Mr Janny]

No defensive players yet. That's pretty crazy. Going to be some really good players available on that side of the ball in the mid teens.

 

[Marcelason78]

Hope not. Murphy, Newton, and Robinson should be there. Could only dream Mitchell or Arnold would fall to them.

Although…. the Jets could use a QB. Don’t trust Rodgers at all.

 

[Marcelason78]

Very surprised Denver didn’t trade back. Nix would have been there much later.

At this point... are you sure?

 

[Peter]

lol Vikings. They fell for it.

 

[Acylum]

#23 could be interesting since Kwesi has hitched his wagon to McCarthy. I wouldn’t be shocked to see him go offense again now that I think about it.

 

[NetflixAndClone]

Shocked that no defensive players have been picked yet.
