    DRAFT 2024 NEP 6th Round Pick - Joe Milton

    That offense was more than friendly enough to Richardson. Besides strength and velocity he's got very limited arm talent. With respect anyone that's watched these guys tape understands why this is kind of a lazy comp besides the obvious. Milton has a stronger arm but doesn't have the touch or...

    DRAFT 2024 7th Round Pick - TE Jaheim Bell

    That definitely could be one of his duties, eventually. Blocking is enormous for the TE position bc it determines usage. If he can handle himself in space when it comes to that. I think the idea is to have him as flex/move te. Again with 3rd down being highlighted as a real possibility bc of his...

    Content Post 2024 PTP Board/Draft Thread

    I believe it was 5/8. Maye, Polk, Wallace, Baker and Dial. Robinson and Bell were very close to being on there. Not bad.

    DRAFT 2024 NEP 6th Round Pick - Joe Milton

    I don't think anyone thinks running is more important than quick processing, manipulating a pocket, layering passes etc but the position has changed/evolved. And rushing absolutely matters. I mean look at the QBs we just draft. Downplaying is ignoring the obvious. You won't be a good qb bc...

    DRAFT 2024 7th Round Pick - TE Jaheim Bell

    Makes defenders miss and picks up yac like we haven't seen in a long time. Don't ignore the obvious here. He's a big running back that if you're creative and again don't ignore the obvious. Should be a decent option in that role. Tore acl in hs. He actually started off at rb before expanding...

    DRAFT 2024 NEP 6th Round Pick - Joe Milton

    Agreed! A lot of people want to compare him to AR15 but Richardson is/was much farther ahead when it comes to coming off reads about going through his progressions. Better in terms of pocket management but you can't hate this pick. You improve even slightly on a few things and you have at...

    DRAFT 2024 NEP 6th Round Pick - Joe Milton

    Definitely think we'll see what he can do in terms of different packages and looks. Possible hybrid but in terms of raw talent he's a nice piece of clay to work with. Him and Maye are a definite reflection of what you look for in a "new" QB. Again I think Zappe is done and I was a fan...

    DRAFT 2024 4th Round Pick - WR Javon Baker

    That's the only real path for him to stay. I can see it but I know we'll kick the tires elsewhere. Rice is still available ;)

    DRAFT 2024 6th Round Pick - CB Marcellas Dial

    On the ptp board. I love Dial's toughness and ability to use the sidelines. See him as a strong zone corner that attacks the ball, C3 3rd where he can use the sidelines to his advantage, physical/press against bigger WR in short areas. He's not someone that can chase around smaller guys. Tough...

    Bunch of good players on the board. Love the value in Baker. Hoping we get the same here.

    DRAFT 2024 4th Round Pick - WR Javon Baker

    JJ, TT and Reagor are gone imo and I loved Reagor coming out :( Boutte as well. Pop Bourne Polk Baker are locks rn

    Content Post 2024 PTP Board/Draft Thread

    4/5 so far. Always kick myself with guys like Robinson bc he was in the middle of the pack on pure analytics/#'s from my list. It's really not easy making and I definitely could be more efficient. I basically look at 200+ guys athletic testing and match them up with what we have gone with in the...

    DRAFT 2024 4th Round Pick - WR Javon Baker

    Baker is a tough kid from ATL who used sports to escape the day to day in some parts of this country. Big time recruit which you always want. Was at Alabama before being lost in the shuffle there. Baker is a prototype Z with X upside if he works on his efficiency on the los and catch point...
