Tackle- Simmons, Membou, Campbell

Banks can play Tackle but I think he'd be better as a Guard. Grey Zabel is the top IOL.

Chiefs are apparently targeting Banks and or Simms. We'll see. They are saying the Chiefs are focused on the trenches.

I'm sure your way ahead of me in that department. I'm just getting started. And you are right. Except for a couple positions, this draft is weak. IMO Cam Ward is the only QB in this draft worth taking. Rest of them are junk.

I'd say most of them are long-term backups.

I do like Tyler Shough & Will Howard somewhat. But neither one has a high ceiling. They would likely be considered lower tier starters.

The only other QB I like somewhat is Jaxson Dart.

I see too much Drew Lock with Dart. He has that IDGAF mentality. Plus, I think he's going to have a harder time adjusting with the offense he ran at Ole Miss.

Doesn't matter anyway. My two teams aren't looking for a QB. Bad year for QB's if your looking for one. All done looking at QB's. Time to look at RB's now.

I think Shough & Howard are backups. But could play sooner rather than later. That's why I would have both over Dart.

Todd McShay is obsessed with Shough for some reason. The guy seems like a huge stiff to me

lmao I think McShay has a late 1st grade on Shough.

I like him. But yeah, I think he's a long-term backup. His film is actually pretty good. He can run an NFL offense. But his ceiling is limited.

Campbell will also likely end up as a Guard in the NFL.

Depends on the team. But he can play Tackle.

You are rooting for two teams? :rolleyes: I don't think curses can be that easily circumvented.

Actually 4. I also love Joe Burrow and the Bengals and will putting a couple early season prop bets on Detroit once again. I doubt they will lose 9 of their 11 starters on defense again this season.

4 teams? That's like rooting for an entire division.

Fan etiquette allows one team in each conference (AFC, NFC). That's the limit. Anything beyond that would qualify as bandwagon behavior. This should be common knowledge.

Each week there are 16 winners and 16 losers. Each week I love to find at least 5 or 6 games to bet on. Between that and fantasy its a great way to get through the season when your favorite team sucks or you have Jerry Jones as an owner. Its been that way for over a couple decades now.

A draft casual, but the whole bad QB class, so the best of the group ends up going 1st just cause a team needs one, seems like trouble in the making. Just take star defensive end and try QB in 2nd or 3rd round imo.

So what are the chances that Shedeur Sanders slides? And how far? It’s looking in by more and more like Shedeur will be the QB that slides this year. If he doesn’t get drafted by pick 9 to the Saints then there is a chance Shedeur could slide into the 20’s or even out of the 1st round.

Would Pittsburgh be willing to trade up (10-15 range) to draft Shedeur?

Short arms isn't such a bad thing. It just means he has a pudd.
