Irres Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 I know it's an odd thing to ask on a Space Sim/Game site...but anyone else following the NFL draft? What're your thoughts so far? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Osclin Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Boring this year. Not a lot of exciting players, can't think of any surprises(except maybe Tn passing up on Philly's fire sale), mainly just teams filling in needed roles. Now the real wait is to see how badly Winston screws up and how much Tennessee squanders Mariota's potential. Irres 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irres Posted May 2, 2015 Author Share Posted May 2, 2015 Never been a SD fan even though I have lived here for 10 years, but they got my favorite RB in this draft, so who knows maybe it's time. Aside from that I actually really like Tenn's and Arz's draft so far. I like Kevin White in Chicago, and Parker in Miami both good fits. and from a fantasy perspective: Abdullah, Coleman, and Yeldon will probably produce points immediately. (along with Gordon) Gurley in St Louis????? Not sure how that will play out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doopsums Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 I live in Tampa and am not excited about the Jamies pick. Not worth it IMO. We are not going to make the playoffs next year anyways and if you are going to use the next year to develop your QB, why not take Mariota, who is a more physically gifted kid with a better head on his shoulders!?

Irres Posted May 2, 2015 Author Share Posted May 2, 2015 Mariota was the better pick and safer for sure. But I think you will be happy with Jamies a year from now. He has risk for sure, but his upside is pretty good too. He is clutch if nothing else. However I agree I am not sure his upside is higher than Mariota by much if at all.

Doopsums Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Its pretty easy to be clutch when you had a consistently more talented team around you than your opponents in college. He is now entering a shitty team, with a weak o line, a coaching staff that has NEVER developed consistent qb play nor is known for having a great offense, all while playing against faster, more athletic athletes. I don't see it ending well. My prediction: Jameis does O-K his first year, team has a terrible record again. Year 2, Winston gets hurt, lovie is gone, and everyone in Tampa continues to support a dysfunctional franchise.
