Passer. But competitor...? Lamar Jackson is anot a great passer, but his competitiveness is off the charts.
No doubt....I feel more sorry for that kid than any in the draft. I thought he was a beast, but the medical red flag was a dead give away....

You had Rudolphs overall mechanics ahead of Mayfield? The draft really is interesting when it comes to seeing how people see things differently. I was absurdly high on mayfield, his mechanics are so sound for someone so young and i cant see any bad habbits, footwork is already great and his release is sexy as fuck. I did not watch as much on Rudolph but id have taken mayfield over Darnold, Allen etc 2k
Comparing him to Big Ben. The level of competition in the AFCN is set by him now. Rudolph has bog shoes to fill and a high expectation. It's not a knock on him. I like Rudolph, but if he's a Ben's replacement....
See, but I heard he was cleared for play again 3-4 weeks ago already. I thought that story was over and he might fall maybe half a round or so from where he would have been. I wasn't expecting this. I loved his tape too.
If the evaluation isn't absolutely disastrous, I'd love to see the Falcons take him here in the 3rd (six picks from now). If he can play at all, the value at this point is getting to be significant. Worth a late 3rd. The main thing that's surprising me about Atlanta's draft so far is that it has a BPA feel to it. Thomas Dimitroff has always described himself as "a pure need-based guy" when it came to the draft. It's one of the things that I've always disagreed with in his style as GM. But it does pose the question of who Atlanta plans to start next to Grady Jarrett at DT. We've signed two free agents since the mock, but I don't think either would be widely projected as a starter.
Titans might not have traded up had they known Sweat would still be on the board in the mid to late third. I'm glad they did though, I'd much rather have Landry.
We were discussing earlier about how two people can watch the same film and see different things. I like Mayfields quick release but I do disagree quite a bit about his footwork. I’m on the phone now but we could discuss it some more tomorrow if you like.
There were multiple reports I read that indicated the majority of NFL teams were MUCH more concerned about his medical condition than the media was portraying...I thought he was a lock for the slider of the round.
