May well be, but if a QB draft class has 3-4 that hit, I think that's generally considered pretty darn good.

i thought a half dozen are NFL ready each year?

i feel like theres going to be more busts than success from this class...

You still have to take a shot at one of them, right? I can’t imagine any of those guys being worse than what we have.

I would rather get OL or MLB vs QB this draft. Could be the wrong move, but I dont think any outside the top 2 really make me think they are worth more than getting Mason Cole into a backup role.

Half a dozen that can play on an entry contract to the level of KP, and "NFL ready" do not necessarily mean the same thing, mate.

I agree. The line was neglected for too long, it's priority #1 imo still, along with another CB and MLB help

MLB is such a weird position nowadays. There are next to no one who does what you want: good against the run and can cover tight ends. I'm not even sure theres someone remotely like that in next years class. I'd much rather draft a safety who can be moved around and tasked to cover linebackers.

yeah I suppose I didn't mean draft specifically but just roster-wise. Unless there's a Shazier type unicorn on the board you aren't going to be taking a MLB too early

Trace is like the exact opposite of Cement Shoes Trubisky as far as athletic ability, so he'd likely be a huge upgrade.

I’d rather Mitch throw left handed than trust a UPS QB

In the AFC...?

I mean that's great he's getting huge props for no turnovers - but give me a guy who makes great throws, takes some risks, and huzzah, scores TDs.

Postby **willeyeam** » Tue Dec 05, 2023 11:46 am

NFL.com has them at 11 fwiw

Postby **MrKennethTKangaroo** » Tue Dec 05, 2023 11:47 am

Playoff worthy imo

The media seems to agree

There should be very little space between the Steelers and the Jets and if there is, it just means that you should be looking at regular standings and not power rankings...because that's the only real difference between those two teams for me as a neutral fan. Excellent defenses. QB pressure teams. A slew of QBs who can't do dick in this league, including recent first round picks. Steelers have been a little better overall, they can keep the chains moving a bit better...but I'm guessing these things that have the Steelers in the top 15 in the league, also have the Jets in the bottom three. But that gap is not justifiable...

one has wins, the other has losses?

The Tomlin factor

nah he sucks

Postby **tifosi77** » Tue Dec 05, 2023 12:16 pm

There are superficial similarities to the Jets but come on. I don't really rate KP, but as of 2023 the fall off from him down to Zach Wilson is like that waterfall that took Marshall, Will, and Holly to the Land Of The Lost. It's a whole different world of existence down there.
