If he’s there towards the end of the first there will be a few teams trying to trade back in. Sanders at 28-32 is great to get the extra option year and develop him ala Lamar

I think it hinges on what Pittsburgh does at 21.

Sanders is going ti be a nightmare for whomever takes him IMO

Browns ending up with Sanders and Hunter looks like a legit possibility tonight

teams are so desperate for QBs, it's amazing to see the same mistakes being made over and over again. Teams never learn.

Oh man that's a big reach. None of the QB's in this draft are worth being overdrafted. One of the nice things about the Smith trade is that it lessened the chances of the Raiders taking Sanders at 6 as IMO that's just poor value for a QB that lacks typical NFL arm strength. Dart also lacks elite traits. These guys are just way too close to Mac Jones type prospects for me as the upside isn't high enough to warrant a 1st round pick.

I mean we all laughed at the GOAT Nix pick last year being a reach, now he'd go no worse than #3 in a redraft. I expect we see 4-5 QBs in the first round as desperation + poverty fifth year option just makes gambling on a QB absolutely worthwhile.

There's even rumors that the Giants are out on Sanders and might reach for Dart as high as #3.

Phil Simms just called Dart "pudgy"

Jaxson Dart at #3, but Nathan Rourke can't get a practice squad job? WTF?

I think Nix probably fails if drafted by most other organizations. He just happened to land in the lap of a coach that knows how to run a very efficient dink and dunk offense when Brees started losing his arm strength which also suits Nix to a T. Fit doesn't get talked about enough when it comes to drafting QB's. Fit is one of main deciding factors of a rookie QB flourishing or busting as too often these young QB's are thrown into pro offenses that maybe don't suit their skillset or their maturation as a QB. I'm still lukewarm on Nix as I want to see how he can do in year two when DC's have a season's worth of film to go over and make things more difficult for him.

I dont think Nix jumps any of the top 3 QBs drafted last year.

I'm excited to see Cam Ward on the Titans, but after years of poor QB play from so many Titans draft picks I'm ready to get hurt again

Favourite non-playoff night of the season!


Hoping for trades and chaos

I think the list of teams that haven't been rumored to be trading into the top 5 is shorter than the list that has.

I hope the Bears stay pat, despite being probably the most rumored team to be moving up
