I agree.

Wow

Penix taken well before Nix. 

2 of the first 9 picks were Huskies.

[Front Ranger]

At least half these top 15 QB picks will almost certainly be busts. Could actually see this being one of the bustiest drafts ever for QBs.

Nix vs Wilson vs Stidham QB battle should be interesting for Broncos. Lol.

Nougats are playin'

They stole the Laker's soul, burned it, and then flushed it down the toilet.

Penix to Falcons is a head scratcher. They just signed Kirk Cousins for four years and $180M.

I said that to my son last night and listed some first 'pick of the draft' QB busts like JaMarcus Russell in 2007.    Who??

It was probably the biggest reach of the first round. ESPN rated it a “major reach.” Honestly it was shocking and people may lose their jobs over this.

Nix is a Zach Wilson 2.0. That being said he is going to a situation with a great head coach. Tough division, but he could have a great future in Denver! We will be wishing him well. 

I think you could make a strong case for every one of these first round QB s being a bust. Williams for obvious reasons, he might break a nail and pull himself out of the game. Drake Maye is Trubisky 2.0. McCarthy just isn’t an NFL level QB. Penix may never even play.

Well before seems a bit of a stretch. I was mildly surprised Nix went 12th as literally no mock drafts had him going that high. Penix to the falcons was also a shock, they could have traded back to the 2nd round to get him. Not sure why they would do that when they have Cousins, unless they don’t trust his health.

Nuggets are up 3-0. It's over.

Please don't forget any other Oregon QB drafted in the first round before Herbert.

Sounds like there were other teams after Penix.
