2017 Draft Prospects Thread

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
So I think I have come to the conclusion we need to take a chance and draft a qb, its just to important, and I have concluded only 2 qb's interest me. (This is assuming Jimmy is not really available for a reasonable trade, like a 2nd round pick)

Mahommes or Webb.

If they love Mahommes and he is there with the 33rd pick, then take him. If they really love Webb and he is there, then maybe, but rather use the later 2nd on Webb unless intel says he wont be there.

The thing is so much talent in the first 15 picks, no way do i want to trade up, or back, or for another player. I want to stick at the position and take a stud.

Personally I would love to see something like Garrett, OJ Howard, Obi then Webb.

That is kind of a dream haul to me, but I just dont see the need to go first round with this QB class.

For some reason, I still think Jimmy Garoppolo is going to end up here.

I just think the only thing yet to be determined is what the price tag ends up as.
 

I think they were saying Thomas said, "The Browns should draft Trubisky"

There's ESPN putting words in someones mouth again.
 
It is crazy we are still over a month from the Draft. The NFL definitely did a good job of stretching out their offseason. It hard to get a good read on teams right now. So many agents are GM putting out false information or leading information to help their cause.
 
Not sure if this was posted, if it was my apologies

If this scouting report is accurate (and I am not a scout nor do I pour over game films trying to act like a scout), and if what Hue says to the media can be believed, then there is no way the Browns will pick Kizer unless he makes a spectacular free fall into the 3rd or 4rth round. Has difficultly processing, does he have "slow eyes"?, accuracy issues.... weren't two of Hue's tenents processing speed and accuracy?

Kessler's accurate, but he's extremely slow to process.

I think it would be good for everyone on this board, myself included, to not hang on every last thing Hue says.
 
Shaheen is such an interesting prospect.

Here's a high school basketball highlight tape to show what kind of athlete he is. It's amazing how much he's changed his body.

It won't let me embed it, but here's the link.

There is a recent tape on him in the Mock Draft section. I was totally blown away at how fast/how fluid his motion is for his size. Now, obviously, the biggest concern would be the talent level he played. He pretty much dominated at that level, can he adjust to a massive leap in speed, strength and skill at the next level? Who knows, but he is still intriguing.

Very interesting article. For the TL;DR crowd here is the draft bottom line.

  • 96.1 percent of starter-level quarterbacks drafted since 1983 have been Gold or Silver passers.
  • Every Super Bowl-winning starting QB drafted since 1983 has been a Gold passer.
  • Bernie Kosar (Silver), Elvis Grbac (Bronze) and Brock Osweiler (Bronze) were on Super Bowl-winning teams as backups behind Gold quarterbacks Steve Young, Troy Aikman and Peyton Manning, but that is the closest a non-Gold QB has come to winning a trophy.
  • There has never been an Bronze All-Pro QB in the SEMTEX era.
