I think McCarthy will be a first rounder. We will see.
he shows up like that at the combine and any open days... he might well just shoot up draft boards.
currently i've got it as 1. Maye 2. Williams 3. Daniels 4. Penix Jr 5. McCarthy as top 5 QBS with Nix Ewers and Sanders as some combination of 6-7-8. but this is hugely subject to change, its a long way to draft day. i think i'd be happy with the vikings getting Penix Jr or McCarthy and i expect them to be available at pick 11. i like Penix Jr more as hes just so accurate, but i'd also be fine with McCarthy, who might fit the KOC system a bit better. but like i said, its a long way to the draft.

I had been hoping Daniels would still be there when the Raiders pick, but now it looks like Penix might even be off the board already.
I'm just hoping they're smart about picking up whichever non-qb's are sliding to make room for all those qb's.

It's still early, the natchampionships have only just been played. QB hype is through the roof. Remember last year? Will Levis? Or the year before with Malik Willis? Every man and his dog had them projected in the top 5. It'll calm a bit before the combine... Then ramp right back up again 😂
reply
That's what I'm hoping will happen again this year. The thing is, Levis dropped in the draft, but he looked good when he played. Teams might take that as a signal to pull the trigger on the QB they want earlier rather than later.
reply
He did look pretty legit when he played. Hopefully the draft slide will humble him, cos the knock on him from what I was reading was character questions.
reply
A lot of teams want a QB of the future.

You think Williams drops out of 1?
Maye might be a more NFL ready QB but I don't see them not going for the potential generational talent Williams brings.
reply
It's more a hope really... I don't want him at the bears... For his own sake. The bears is where talent goes to die.

What do you think the odds are of Chicago trading down and rolling with Fields? The expectation is that they could get four first round picks for the number one this year.
reply
High. Fields has shown spurts of productivity when the coaching hasn't been inept. He needs oline help and weapons. They should prioritise that.
