    Did anyone see Brandon Douty's bowl game? I meant to watch it and forgot.

    Settling in now to watch Cal versus Air Force in the Armed Forces Bowl at 2:00 on ESPN.

    Last chance for me to be wowed by Jared Goff.

    He can sure throw that long ball......and understands the concept of looking off his receiver :D

    Meh, I'm underwhelmed notwithstanding the stats.

    He's missed at least a half dozen easy throws.

    The commentators are talking about him like he's Aaron Rogers.

    I hope he goes top 5--a massive overdraft.

    I can't comment. That's like the only pass I've seen him throw this game. I'm not really watching. Looks like a good athlete tho

    Don't get me wrong, he's thrown some nice passes but he's pretty frail and he's missed some really really easy throws.

    Petty is thrice the QB and a bigger stronger athlete.

    Cool, I believe you. Good to hear.

    I really like The Combine and will watch every move they make there. It's where I got to start to like Petty.

    I watch everything, the drills, the interviews, the body language on the side, those science workouts they show, everything....lot's to glean. Haven't watched as much College games this year tho as in in the previous few years

    Some very nice throws by Goff. Very nice throw under pressure there.

    Yeah I haven't watched nearly as much as I have in the past. I guess because I don't love this QB class and I feel we got ours last year.

    Yeah, after seeing MM and Winston go I kinda just put it Mac's hands and said whatever at that point, knowing that a high pick prolly wouldn't come our soon anyway.

    It's good to have Fitz and I like Petty too. As time goes by I can see Petty competing with his peers very well. I think he has a good chance to adjust to it all

    Jets need to continue drafting QBs until they find the right guy. Not sold on Petty yet, he needs a competitor.

    I wouldn't draft 1 in the first 3 rounds however, maybe look at Doughty at the 4th if available or the kid from Indiana [even though he makes bone-headed mistakes, dude has an arm and great physical talent].

    Goff looked good today, but he won't be a Jet that's for sure.

    Concur. It'll be interesting to see how Mac handles the immediate future this off season in that regard. One more year with Geno? Idk?

    If you were building a team and had to choose Petty or Goff as your QB, you'd choose Petty?

    You can't be serious.

    100%

    Goff is meh and will get killed in the NFL.

    Hope he goes round 1 to the Bills.

    Goff looked very very good yesterday, probably solidified first QB off the board.

    Not even close to an option for us, unfortunately.

    Paxton Lynch got the living shit kicked out of his draft stock today. That was absolutely horrible, a painful 3 hours to watch.

    Dude just kept trying to force it and failing miserably.
