Official 2022 NFL Draft Thread
 

It's not too soon anymore. This coming Monday, it's officially draft season.

Non-QB and Non-Kyle Hamilton, who would you love to see us be able to land at No. 11? Charles Cross would have been my answer until we re-signed Leno. I'd go with Ahmad Gardner now.

Would anyone be interested in doing a draft party somewhere around the DC area on Saturday, April 29th? That day would be the 2nd and 3rd rounds.

I'd like to comment on QB's in this draft. I'll make a comparison of each QB to an NFL QB, not in terms of how good they can become but in terms of their styles. There are two QB's who I think can become quality NFL starters soon and one who could become a Pro Bowler in due time. This is how I rank them.

1(a). Kenny Pickett. He is a polished QB prospect with NFL size and athleticism. He makes all the throws with very good accuracy and velocity. He can evade the rush and is a dangerous runner but he keeps his eyes downfield when he is chased out of the pocket and often finds a receiver on the run. He is NFL starter material. NFL comparison: Josh Allen

1(b). Matt Corral. Matt is also a polished QB prospect. He throws a beautiful deep ball, is poised in the pocket but when he takes off running watch out! He's the other NFL starter. NFL Comparison: Russell Wilson.

3. Malik Willis. Malik is a superb athlete who has a rocket arm and great foot speed. He would probably be the best athlete on the field most Sundays right now but he has a long way to go to become a complete QB. I ranked him below Pickett and Corral for now, yet I feel that any team that is willing to wait for him to develop could have a potential Pro Bowl player. NFL comparison: Michael Vick.

4. Sam Howell. Sam knows how to play the position. He has a strong arm and he can run, too. He can light it up when he has a decent supporting cast. He is NFL sturdy and he has the tools to possibly become a starter in due time. NFL comparison: Baker Mayfield.

5. Desmond Ridder. Desmond is a smooth operator at QB. He has NFL size with long arms and big hands. He could be held back by accuracy issues but he is a proven winner. NFL comparison: Matt Ryan.

I really like Dean and Spiller.

I figure there's no way Dean gets to the 2nd rd. But it's nice to dream.

What’s kinda crazy is 2 highly touted mlb-type prospects at 11…Dean and the Utah kid, Lloyd. I don’t see a MLB on our roster 🤷*♂️

Re: Official 2022 NFL Draft Thread
 

I have watched Sevyn Banks for a couple of years now. We should not want him. Very, very, very inconsistent.

11: R1 P11 OT Ikem Ekwonu - NC State (this stud can replace Scherff at RG and/or push for a starting T spot, this man is a HOG!)
42: R2 P10 S Lewis Cine - Georgia
73: R3 P9 QB Bailey Zappe - Western Kentucky
112: R4 P8 LB Brandon Smith - Penn State
188: R6 P10 G Lecitus Smith - Virginia Tech
228: R7 P9 RB CJ Verdell - Oregon

Did this one with waiting until the 3rd round to draft a QB. I'd be pretty happy with this draft if it worked out this way (On actual draft day, I think we need to go QB in the 1st or 2nd round).
