I don’t get one finding comfort in the NFL agreeing with you about QBs in the first round. Their track record is cheeks.
Because Fields fans have spent the last 3 months lecturing everyone here about how actual NFL teams loved Fields and how Wilson was a media/TGG creation. Take the L and move on.
How do you validate whether he was a hype train creation or not? The Jets picked second and took him. There's no way to tell whether the rest of the NFL was all in on him or not. If he fails, was he a hype train creation despite the reasonable questions about his flags? And if he succeeds, he wasn't?
He fell past quite a few QB-needy teams. This is pointless though because you'll just frame it like the NFL teams simply fell for the anti-Fields mirage as well.
The reality is that teams fall in love with individuals. JD fell hard for Wilson apparently. The 9ers initially had their eye on Jones but during the process got swayed by Lance. It only takes one team. Fields landed where he was wanted as evident by the price paid to get him.
because the jets picked him. if we drafted fields the same people would be saying we passed on mahomes 2.0 to take jason campbell 2.0
because carolina hedged their best to darnold over fields, broncos hedged to luck and bridgewater instead of taking fields. NE declined to trade up for him, they wanted jones not fields. chicago didn't really have to move that high, nothing says fields was going before their pick. only possible place could have been WFT. The truth is teams just weren't that high on fields. doesn't mean they are right. they weren't high on allen or mahomes or watson or jackson. but it's the reality. NFL teams didn't see him as an amazing prospect and 3 QBs went before him.
True indeed. Winning heals all ailments, and even a broken down cat house reporter like Cimini will find a lot of good things to say if we win. His last piece on Wilson and Sam's trade however, was pretty idiotic and insulting to boot if you ask me, even for a cat house Winnie.
Mahomes was smeared and so was Mayfield And Josh Allen from Wyoming Cowboyland too All their teams are now VASTLY improved Carry on with downing and the doubting
Another parallel to Mahomes you left out is Matt Nagy being part of the coaching staff of a playoff team that traded up to grab a young QB.
At 5-11, Russell Wilson was considered too small by many to be a successful QB in the NFL. As a result, he was drafted in the middle of the 3rd Round and only went on to become one of the best QBs in this era. Those same people who were bashing Wilson for his lack of size when he came out of Wisconsin have been kissing his ass for the past nine years. You can measure a man's height in feet and inches, but there is no way to measure the size of his heart. The primary job of the agenda driven media is to create negativity and drag society through the mud. As clearly evidenced by the past year fourteen months, these low vibration types are not being paid to properly inform and enlighten the masses.
