NFL 2020 Off-season Thread: Kool-Aid Man Gets His Ring

[Weltall]

WalterFootball gave the Packers an "F" grade, and they also rated the Eagle's 2nd round pick as the worst 2nd round pick since they started tracking in 1999.

[Rhyis.]

to be fair the only qb the pack have drafted in the first round, in my life time, will be in the hall of fame so i'm not gonna kill them for the pick.... sucks for the teams immediate future and the future of ar12 tho lol

[tyven]

The first 8 episodes leaked, in case anyone was unaware. Enjoy

Oh shit are they HD???

[Weltall]

They were listed as 1280x720, but look more like screener quality.

Interesting stat related to Green Bay and Rodgers:

Number of touchdown passes thrown to first round picks -

Brees 104
Brady 105
P Manning 293
Favre 127
Marino 84
Rivers 35
*Rodgers 1
Roethlisberger 69

The 1 TD came in 2019 to a 50 year old Marcades Lewis. Imagine how good the guy could have been with some extreme talent and spending/risk.

Because Jennings, Cobb, Nelson, and Davante Adams were all 2nd round picks (and Jermichael Finley RIP was in the 3rd round). Arguing he didn't get talented weapons because those guys weren't first round picks is kinda dumb tbh.

[Rhyis.]

yeah historically most receivers that have worked out in the nfl have been drafted out of the second round, not the first.

media talking points, gotta love em

The Giants have placed the seldom-used UFA tender on DE/OLB Marcus Golden, per source. That means that if Golden remains unsigned past July 22, he can only play for the Giants this season, who would maintain the pass rusher’s exclusive rights.

Last time it was used was in 2017. Guess by who lmao.

Wideouts taken between the Packers 1st round pick and the receiver they took:

2006: Santonio Holmes, Sinorice Rice, Chad Jackson (they took Greg Jennings)

2008: (no first round pick) Donnie Avery and Devin Thomas were taken before Jordy Nelson in the second, then they took Jermichael Finley in the 3rd.

2011: Titus Young, Torrey Smith, Greg Little were taken before Randall Cobb

2014: Kelvin Benjamin, Marquise Lee, and Paul Richardson were taken before Davante Adams.

[Weltall]

Have they really not taken a WR top 2 since 2011!?

The stats also included free agent signings. No matter how you want to spin it, the difference is glaring.

[archibaldcrane]

Free agent Jimmy Graham

was a third round pick

[Weltall]

Just to be clear, you’re using post-Seattle Jimmy Graham here? Lmao

[archibaldcrane]

You're using 1st round draft position as a substitute for good offensive weapons

[Mertron]

Free agent Jimmy Graham

was a third round pick

yes but did you know he played basketball

[Rhyis.]

Every WR drafted in the first round from 2015-2019:

Marquise Brown
N'Keal Harry
D.J. Moore
Calvin Ridley
Corey Davis
Mike Williams
John Ross
Corey Coleman
Will Fuller
Josh Doctson
Laquon Treadwell
Amari Cooper
Kevin White
DeVante Parker
Nelson Agholor
Breshad Perriman
Phillip Dorsett

... Not great Bob.

You can go another 5 years and you'll only get about 6 other WRs that had productive careers (and almost all of them came from the 2014 draft) despite there being another 20 drafted.

[Mertron]

agholor might be the only first round wr wentz has thrown to, so yeah. desean and alshon were seconds iirc (ertz too)
