    Fuck. No.

    Trubisky isn't a #2 talent. I still sorta have heart burn about him at 12 but can sorta deal with it.

    Right....he is not #2 talent. He is #1 talent. But he may not even come out from what I hear.....so it may be superfluous.

    He is not a top 15 talent imo.

    It doesn't matter what you think. It matters what NFL GMs think. If he comes out, he will go in Top 3.....guaranteed. They will assess that high. And their opinions will align more with mine than they do yours....guraranteed.

    Can't he just say the same thing to you ... It doesn't matter what you think?

    Why are you digging in so much on this fucker? He has a great arm, but lots of people have had great arms, and they weren't all Top 3 material.

    In fairness, big vaguely mobile guys have been going high with people looking to replicate big ben - Wentz in 2016, Bortles in 2014, Tannehill in 2012, Newton in 2011...

    I'm not sold that Trubisky is on the same level though.

    Then in a few years time if Mitch turns into Blaine Gabbert you have a fellow poster that can hang an opinion over you that was aligned with reason. Perhaps something more GM's should follow.

    I look forward to seeing what happens either way.

    There's only one scenario I'm comfortable with Mitch @ #1 and that involves a trade down of our second pick...which I'm an advocate for anyway. If at all possible to secure an additional 2nd rounder, then you go premier defense with your other first, Oline and secondary with your next 2. Then linebacker and depth following, especially in the trenches.

    He can say the same to me....and yes, it doesn't matter what I think. Its just that I think that what I think will be proven right. i'e. I think some NFL GM....maybe ours will agree with me and take him Top 5.

    And it is far more than just a great arm that I see. It is the whole package.

    Tell you what, I will make the same deal with you I made with Stan: If MT comes out and is NOT taken in the Top 5 picks of the draft, I owe you a pitcher of Margaritas. Conditions: you and Stan must meet me at Maya....and each of you must consume one entire pitcher each, by yourselves, in one sitting.

    Fair deal?

    If I win, you buy the pitcher....but I will share it with you both. I am trying to stay off too much sugar.

    As a prospect he is on the same level as all of them....except maybe Newton. How could he turn out. One never knows....hopefully...if we get him...more Newton/BR level. I someone else takes him....he is free to duplicate the Bortles/Tannehil path.

    I am sure I have had more than a few opinions that people can "hang over me". I mean, I am so well hung already a little longer dangle won't hurt me.

    I look forward to seeing what happens either way.

    And if I am right....I may dangle my well hungness over you!!

    I got no problem with that if it gets us more of what we need. For sure.

  • Garrett #1

    Trubisky #2

    Hooker #12

    what would it take to get SF's number 2?

    We give SF

    2017- 3rd round pick

    2017- 4th round pick

    2018- 1st round pick

    2018- 2nd round pick

    2018- 3rd round pick

    -Or-

    2017- 2nd round pick

    2018- 1st round pick

    2018- 2nd round pick

    2019- 2nd round pick

    ?

    @poeticg said:

    Using a draft value chart, it'd take our #12, both second rounders and our opening pick in the third round.

    Not something we'd do.

    Or, a #1 next year in addition to some of those other picks.

  • Yo, I'm late on this part of the conversation... whats up with the margaritas and why isn't everyone doing this?

    I was not impressed with his bowl game. Was responsible for two turnovers and two sacks that cost Nc 15 points! I agree he has size and an arm, but he's a project and I can't spend a #1 overall on him with so many needs and so much talent at other positions. Yes, we have to solve our QB issues (per Gipper) but not this way. It's going to be Tim Couch all over again.

  • 6'3" 209 lbs is decent size, but not "big". Trubisky is smaller than Goff, Wentz, Winston, Mariota, Kizer, Allen, Mahomes etc. not to say he's undersized, but comparing him with worthlessberger is strange. Average, strong and mobile would be a better description of ol' Mitch.

    Average what? Height? He is same or taller than:

    Rodgers

    Dalton

    Prescott

    Stafford

    Brees

    Wilson

    Cousins

    At 6'3, his height/weight are not a problem.

    He can say the same to me....and yes, it doesn't matter what I think. Its just that I think that what I think will be proven right. i'e. I think some NFL GM....maybe ours will agree with me and take him Top 5.

    And it is far more than just a great arm that I see. It is the whole package.

    Tell you what, I will make the same deal with you I made with Stan: If MT comes out and is NOT taken in the Top 5 picks of the draft, I owe you a pitcher of Margaritas. Conditions: you and Stan must meet me at Maya....and each of you must consume one entire pitcher each, by yourselves, in one sitting.

    Fair deal?

    If I win, you buy the pitcher....but I will share it with you both. I am trying to stay off too much sugar.

    Dude ... Me and Stan would be glad to drink multiple pitchers and pay for it ourselves ... so, I'm not saying he won't be a Top 5 pick ... I'm saying, I'm in.

    QBs are overvalued. Of course they would rate him high. Tebow got picked in the first round at one point. So I am not terribly concerned about where pundits place QBs.

    Apparently, you have got the Gipper autism and have locked down an opinion 4 months before the draft and anyone who disagrees is wrong.

    I am sure you would.....Perhaps there should be more meat and bones on the waiver.

    How about this: If he goes Top 5, then you have to bring Zoe and her sister to the party.

  • I'd love to see Foster fall to 12. My professional scouting report on him reads as such:

    Reuben Foster is good at fucking shit up.

    Then you admit that you completely agree with me. And it isn't pundits that are of concerned....it is NFL GMs.

    Or don't you get that? It was NFL GMs that chose Wentz and Goff.....two guys that may have in reality should have been 2d rounders #1 and #2.

    Apparently, you have got the Gipper autism and have locked down an opinion 4 months before the draft and anyone who disagrees is wrong.

    Or, maybe I am absolutely right....and you only disagree with me to disagree with me...choosing thereby to ignore the reality that QBs ARE going to be taken in the Top 5 of the draft.

  • If the Browns jumped back up to 2, I would hope they walked away with Garrett and Allen.
