Twitter: ESPN did a draft assuming every NFL Player was available to be picked: Here's RD.1

Who's going to build their franchise around a 43 year old QB?

It is like five twos said is this for the future or a 1 year thing. That is a big factor.

Prescott, Wentz, and Burrows were picked over a a 6 time winning qb. Let that sink in and just goes to show how off this is.

I thought it was rather obvious that they're talking about the long-term prospects of the player because, you know, it's a draft.

A 43 year old QB isn't going to be picked ahead of good, young QBs with several years left to play. Let that sink in.

It is like five twos said is this for the future or a 1 year thing. That is a big factor.

Are drafts for the future? There's your answer.

Seriously, they put Burrow ahead of Brady - why does this need to be explained?

ESPN is having worse time of this off season than we are. What's next? A list of teams on one side and Long Snappers on the other side with "Match the Long Snapper to the Team"?

Aye I'm not saying he won't ball. I'm not saying he sucks. I'm saying based on what we've SEEN? That's far too high for him. Basically they are saying he's a better player than Kyler Murray. I've seen nothing to suggest that at this point.

I feel you I'm jus sayin. I think he's going to be better than kyler. Did you see the last few games last season though? My dads GF is a broncos fan so I follow the team somewhat and of course my dad has to watch.

The Patriots didn’t trade down? Someone didn’t think this through.

 

[darthseinfeld]

Nah drew lock got that swag. He's my breakout candidate this year.

He has a ton of WR's to throw too now

 

[darthseinfeld]

Ridiculously high for Bridgewater

 

[CowboyRoy]

He's 43 this year and looked like a shell of his former self last season.

Spoken like a guy that doesn't know the Pats team from last year or much about how QB play works.

Pats were 12-4 by the way.

 

[CowboyRoy]

He's 43 years old. The fact that he's even taken in the first round at all is a achievement. No other 43 year old would even be considered. If age wasn't a factor Brady would be #1.

I have no issue with Brady. Its Drew Lock that's the issue if you want to devalue his list.

Who the hell is Drew Lock?

 

[Risen Star]

I'd trade up to 1 for Wentz.

Hey what up man you finally got your wish they got rid of my ability to add a avatar. I know you just loved my Nipsey avatar.......coincidentally I'm banned from adding a avatar for some reason.

Wow. That's absurd.

 

[Manwiththeplan]

LP Ladoucer came in at #33.

At least 15 spots too low

Naw I didn’t. You starting a team you picking him over Kyler?

 

[Hawkeye0202]

This is pretty lame. That being said, it is amazing that outside of a semi-large chunk of Cowboys fans that frequent this site, Dak is considered a very good franchise caliber QB.

+1

 

[Nav22]

Dak selected 9th overall.

Where did Andy Dalton get picked??? He’s on the same level as Dak, right???

 

[Nova]

He's 43 this year and looked like a shell of his former self last season.

Going even further than that, if every player is available to pick, that means all franchises are stating from scratch.

Who wants to start their franchise with an old QB?

 

[gimmesix]

Alright so while reading I was gonna give props to my boy Dak but what in the hell is that at #15? I keep reading over and over to see what exactly this is and #15 doesn't make any sense at ALL. As a matter of fact if every player is available in the league and I chose Drew Lock, Teddy Bridgewater or Sam Darnold I should be fired on the spot.

Just goes to show how much the quarterback position is valued. Teams take them at the top of the first round and ESPN takes them here over much better players simply because good ones are hard to find.

This is essentially just a QB ranking with a few other players thrown in to make it look like a draft.

Prescott, Wentz, and Burrows were picked over a a 6 time winning qb. Let that sink in and just goes to show how off this is.

If it were prime Brady yeah this would look stupid but would you rather build around a QB that has 10 years or one declining that could play 1 more season?

 

[Hennessy_King]

Naw I didn’t. You starting a team you picking him over Kyler?

Is my job or money on the line? If so prolly not. But if im sippin on some henn i might have the cajones to pull the trigger. My gut tells me yes.
