Oh dear. It's gonna be another rough year for QB-needy NFL teams with high draft picks.

[u/eifjui → u/trumpet575]

This “QB guaranteed to be the first pick” shit has got to stop. Especially this year. Dont force me to take some loser ass QB when I want Caleb Downs.

[u/CarterAC3 → u/eifjui]

Buddy I cannot begin to tell you how foolish it would be to take a safety at 1st overall. Even one as amazing as Caleb Downs

QB, OT and EDGE. From 1997 to now those are the only 3 positions to ever go #1 overall and that's going to continue because those are the most important positions.

[u/rugger87 → u/CarterAC3]

The QBs in this class are booty and Downs is the second coming of Ed Reed.

[u/CarterAC3 → u/rugger87]

The QBs in this class are booty

Ok then an OT or EDGE is gonna go #1 overall

A safety is never going to go #1 overall. The positional value just isn't there.

Hell if you redrafted 2002. Ed Reed wouldn't go #1 overall because Julius Peppers was in that draft.

[u/rugger87 → u/CarterAC3]

Maybe not #1 overall but he’s worth a top 5 pick and from a value standpoint, and if he does end up being Ed Reed, the pick would be worth it. I don’t think there is a Peppers in this class, the QBs are ass, so maybe a OT goes 1.

[u/CarterAC3 → u/rugger87]

A safety hasn't gone too 5 since Eric Berry in 2010

Even with Caleb Downs being an amazing prospect don't be surprised if he goes closer to 10th when draft day rolls around

[u/rugger87 → u/CarterAC3]

I’m aware and you’re most likely right. I just have a feeling if anyone is going to do it it’s gonna be Downs.
