Justin just got traded 🤣🤣🤣
The Fact that Peneii Sewell has played strong from the jump and hasn't really sustained any injuries like Elijah Vera Tucker or Slater speaks volumes.
I mean… he was the highest projected lineman of the draft. I’d hope he’s doing better than the others 😂😂
@@yvngxnightmarehe’s doing way better than the others though. better than any prospect analyzers had predicted.
@@yvngxnightmare I mean, he's a top 5 LT and RT in the league. I don't think anyone saw that coming.
@@BlakeWR81that’s not true. I’m a lions fan but everyone during the pre draft process was saying this guy was a generational tackle. Lots of people thought he was gonna go top 3, and he has actually has lived up to that and then some. It’s insane that he fell to 7
@@deezytalk2600Brad Holmes magic
Penei went up against Donald his rookie season as well and got donald frustrated and when they were bickering penei DID NOT back down from Donald. If you can get donald frustrated, you are a different breed
Sewell is a future HOFer. He makes it look too easy.
Have ya ever seen an NFL team gameplan to get their RT involved like the Lions do? You have now. Penei is a beast.
Sewell is my favorite lion. This is a very likable team as a whole so its tough but i love everything about sewell. Perfect attitude, leadership, and hes the best in the league at a very important position
And very athletic as a person who's not really into watching offensive line that much. I love watching Sewell and Tristan Wirfs
Lions should extend him as soon as they can if they havnt already
@@SulfuricPro He's got 2 seasons left on rookie contract. 5th year option is a no brainer. They will probably try to sign him long term after this season. Amon Ra is on his last season on rookie contract so they trying to sign him right now.
The pregame speeches ALONE are HOF worthy. He’s otherworldly
Brad Holmes Magic. Detroits draft classes the past 3 years have been insane.
Every single BH draft pick was still on the roster until about 24 hours ago, and the 1/23 that is no longer on the roster was a 7th rounder who contributed well on special teams while he was here (Chase Lucas)
Jamo blows...coulda and shoulda grabbed Kyle Hamilton
Gibbs was a bad pick too(@#12)
@@dishdog215yeah...totally, grabbing a player that was a pro bowler as a rookie is a huge mistake
@@dishdog215 look at couch GM over here 😂 JMO has been fine/good and Gibbs is 100% worth the value of #12 overall. Hes not just a RB but a WR and a Blocker in the back. A multi purpose weapon who produced heavily in his rookie year. I think imma trust Brad Holmes over "Dish Dog" on youtube lmao
@@dishdog215smoking bath salts
As a Jets fan, it was a mistake to put Wilson in the starter role right away, but many of us still want him gone
A lot of what went down was a comedy of errors, but in the current trade market I don’t see the value of us letting him go for nothing, he’s still a young high upside qb who never really got to sit. If we can trade him we absolutely should but I hope we don’t release him
Y'all should have just paid Joe Flacco when he was there
As a Bears fan it was just as painful to see Fields go from “learn for a year behind Dalton to try not to get killed in your 1st start against a ferocious Browns pass rush” 🤦♂️
Seeing how Lance couldn’t prove himself in limited action after a “redshirt” year and then Purdy took the ball and ran with it as literally the last pick in the draft is keeping me up at night debating whether the weapons the Bears have now are what will unlock Fields(plus adding MHJ) or if they need to just go with Williams and never look back.
At least he’ll be in a better situation than Lawrence was…
its so annoying how the 49ers messed so badly but somehow ended up with a franchise qb with the last pick of the draft so no one cares they gave up 3 1sts for trey lance@@NotMeNaNaNa
@@Dee-- IKR! It makes the argument that anyone could be a good QB in Shanahan’s system except of course the guy they gave up so much to draft.
It’s also along with Stroud’s success in Houston why guys like Wilson, Fields and Jones don’t get the benefit of the doubt for all the excuses made for why they haven’t succeeded yet.
Crazy that if Justin Fields gets traded, Trevor Lawrence will be the only 1st round QB in the 21' and 22' draft to still be with the team that drafted them.
Wilson-Likely cut or traded
Lance- Traded
Fields- Likely traded
Mac Jones-Traded
Kenny Pickett-Traded
Update Fields and Wilson got traded lol. Also I said 21' AND 22' 1ST ROUND QBs!
Oh never thought of that 😂
And Trevor is just average at best
Did Zach Wilson get release or traded?
i think the jets MIGHT give wilson another year to be fair to him to sit behind rogers probably 3rd string
I thought wilson was on the vikings?
I was SUPER pumped for Jaycee Horn coming out of the draft. I even said he was better than Patrick Surtain. Ugh. Man just can't stay healthy to save his life.
I think Horn would be elite as well, but surtain is just one of those dudes you wish you had instead
The potential is there for sure, hes a top 10 corner when hes on the field, its just staying on the field thats the problem
Lol healthy or not he's not in surtains stratosphere
Never thought he was or would be better. Surtain was always the better prospect. Plays more soundly. Horn just had that high ceiling temptation for Carolina.
Penei Sewel is only 23 and is regarded as the best RT in football he is going to have a lot of All Pro Seasons ahead of him.... teams just be prepared when he declares as eligible
Im sorry but the music intensifying at 20:47 and your overall grade of Zach's performance that was just cold.
Any one know the song title to that instrumental? I remember that beat. 90s hip hop song.
@@LoPresti13hellcats and srts by sexy red
The amount of picks that the niners gave up for Trey Lance only to trade him for a 5th is crazy
Not that it makes it any better but it was a 4th lol
If they hadn't lucked into Brock Purdy, that team would be royally screwed at the position.
It doesn’t get talked about because the Niners are so good at drafting in the late rounds that it doesn’t even matter lol
Yeah its insane
Second only to getting a franchise qb the very next draft for garbage
They hop skipped and fumbled the bag into "With the 262nd pick in the 2022 NFL draft the 49ers select "John Lynch's savior" Iowa State"
@@fate8718lol franchise qb
Cant believe I refreshed to a new vid, keep up the good content!
Thank you Jake!
This dude only puts out bangers🔥🔥🔥
Thank you!
This was such a great class. Franchise changers over and over
HOT TAKE: I’ll always say this, from the QBs, covid made their numbers inflate and made them look good so they were drafted way higher than they should’ve been
I would say the opposite tbh cause they didn't play many matches that year. The only player you can say that the stats did in fact make a player overrated is Mac Jones
Bad take
Trev missed games due to contacting covid
Trey opt out of the covid season
Zach was just garbage before and during (typical Jets pick)
Justin best season was before covid and struggled during covid to catch a rhythm
Mac maybe but his benefit was having 3 NFL WRs , 2 NFL rbs and an majority NFL Oline
and thats why the GOAT mahomes had his best season after covid.................................... recency bias insane to forget the goat was better pre covid---- and the bears have still never had qb pass for 4k yards in their history
@@dimitrisgegas5254 so you’re telling me the stats didn’t overrate the other quarterbacks? He was playing well his rookie year.
@@rudigngoat? 😂
Great to see a FA morning upload. Thanks for all your great content over the years, here's to many more 🥂

I love these draft grade videos, you always have good takes and very fair grading. Keep up the good work!
Thank you!
These are the videos that led me to your channel, and kept me here. Great work. I love these type videos.
Thank you so much!
Trevor is fantastic. If you think the Jags are bad, imagine them without him.
Idk they had great weapons around him last year and they still missed the playoffs. CJ Stroud is everything Lawrence was supposed to be and he had an arguably worse supporting cast
@@GrayGamerit’s simple: 30th ranked OLine in the league last year after they got to 8-3, beating out only the Panthers and the Giants. It was open season on TLaw, he got hurt and the run game died
Trevor is the heart of the team. Last year he was playing well and the Monday Night game would have been the best of his career had he not gone down with an ankle injury. After that the offense struggled, the defense had been exposed, and injuries piled up. I don't have to imagine the Jags without Lawrence I'm m a Jags fan. I saw that for 25 years
He's mid . I'd pick 15 over him I'd bet cold take
Mahomes
Allen
Lamar
Burrow
Arod
Stafford
Hurts
Herbert
Stroud
Cousins
Purdy
Goff
Baker
Deshaun
Yeah about here
Dak, Love, Kyler area
@@loganhoche9068id take Tua Dak Love and Kyler above him. Idk about Watson though.
The 2021 QB draft class is the most overrated of all time. Trevor Lawrence is nothing special and the rest of the QB's have been traded and are future backups.
Can’t be overrated if everyone calls it bad, it’s just bad
Trevor Lawrence only being one grade better than Justin Fields feels wrong.
Great video. 🦅
I'm a really big fan of what you do on this channel. The variety of great videos is so refreshing. You are definitely one of the best football anylizers on RUclips. You're up there with AlexRollins, in my opinion.
So that's why I have to say that I was disappointed when you used some bad language in this video( 11:21 ). One of the things I specifically love about this channel is that it's very clean and family-friendly. If you keep those good things up, you will keep this subscriber, regular watcher, and potential sharer of your videos. Thanks for reading, and I hope you can keep this fantastic channel clean for your fans that feel this way.
Lions… Sewell, St. Brown, McNeil, and Barnes… all starters…
Micah falling off in the last month of every season needs to be talked about. They talk about a rookie wall but he's a vet now, he's worn out come playoff time
Hey Daddy Football Analyst
Oil up boy.
Hello
@@FootballAnalysis1 My glorious King
Well, Justin Fields was traded to the Steelers for a 4th round pick (2025), if he plays 51% of the snaps this season, otherwise it a 6th-round selection.
I’ll be the first to admit I was wrong in that the Chicago Bears were going to keep Fields, and I apologize to Football Analysis.
However, I still think Fields has what it takes to start in the league, and learning behind Russell Wilson will do wonders for him, and I’m not yet sold on Caleb Williams until I see what he does in the regular season.
Caleb is the future 🐻⬇️
@@FootballAnalysis1I've heard that said about so many picks (Reggie Bush, Luck, Vick, Vince Young, Trevor Lawrence). Unless you're talking very near future, like next 2 years, then yes Caleb is the future. But we'll see how it plays out. If Caleb turns out to be a stud then that Carolina trade last year may end up as the 2nd worst trade ever after Dallas Dyanesty setting Hershel Walker trade.
just spawned into a new video gonna be a great saturday
Don’t know how Fields gets a C while Wilson gets an F when Fields was in a much better situation yet yielded basically the same results. Seems like the NFL as a whole feels similarly about him
Bc he run fast wow so much potential 💀
I think Justin gets a grade of D-, he might be great at rushing but his percentage at 4th quarter clutch ups are around 20-25% compared to other Bears Qbs that have played in the last 10 years who had a clutch up percentage of nearly 50%
Because he's not good...
you need to add a S grade (for MVP, O/DPOY, hall of fame-level guys) to go above A+
while rashawn slater is great, micah parsons is definitely a step above. they shouldn't both have the same grade
S Ranks? What next, we have to start fighting zombies?
Agreed, I’d say only Parsons and Sewell are on pace to be HOF players from this draft. Surtain, Slater, and Chase were also great picks.
That would be
Sewell
Chase
Micah
Patrick
Really great draft in retrospect
I just feel bad for Zach Wilson man, the kid had talent, but it’s been wasted. His NFL story has just been kinda sad.
Zach had one good year in college during Covid in empty stadiums with a cupcake schedule against depleted teams. He shouldn’t of went in the first
@@ramonejones6749nah his talent is easily first round, he def deserved first round, but not 2nd overall. His career could’ve been insanely different if he went 10-15 picks later and sat out a year or two.
In 2 games vs Utah, Zach threw more TDs to Utah than he did his own team
He was never talented
Dude just benefited from a weak Schedule
Where’s the talent? He doesn’t have a great arm, he’s not accurate, he is incapable of reading defenses and he lacks intangible qualities like leadership and instincts. He’s kinda mobile but other than that he’s shown nothing that suggests he’s a great talent
@@cannonschwarz9554 he had time to read like 8 books in the pockets he had in college.
I love the Heisman winning trophy receiver from Alabama, Devonta Smith.
Exactly getting a player of his caliber close to out of the top 10 of the draft has to be a A+
@@alexmatthewsiv4310 I think given how often a later round WR pick have worked out, getting a true WR2 in top 15 is an overreach.
All day and would be a superstar reciever on 29 teams in the league not up for debate
@@athras8822 he’s not a #2 tho like waddle is a #2 and I would still say that’s a A+ pick but smith when a play is needed that’s who gets the ball it’s hard to call him a #2
@@alexmatthewsiv4310Lmao. Quit lying to yourself. He’s a #2. AJ is miles better.
Should probably redo this grade with Fields traded for a conditional 6th round pick
The Trey Lance pick stings even more, cause while the Jets were bad enough to land the 2nd overall pick, the 49ers traded up for a project QB that did not pan out. For the 3rd overall pick, the 49ers had to surrender 3 1st round picks (12th overall in 2021, 29th overall in 2022, and 29th overall in 2023), and a 3rd round pick in 2022 (101st overall) as a sweetener to the Dolphins. Ironically, none of the 1st round picks acquired by the Dolphins were actually used by the team, as you will find out.
The 1st one stings very hard, cause while the Dolphins did not pick him, that 12th overall pick became Micah Parsons, who is the current pivot of the Cowboys defense. The tale of how the Cowboys got this pick is an interesting one, as the Eagles also held it at one point before sending it to the Cowboys.
The 1st round pick in 2022 was sent to the Chiefs as part of the Tyreek Hill trade, which the Chiefs in turn flipped it to the Patriots for their 1st round pick, which became Trent McDuffie. The Patriots ended up selecting OL Cole Strange, which pun intended, is a strange selection to say the least. He's there, but not a set the world on fire type of guy.
Staying in 2022, the 3rd round pick WAS used by the Dolphins to select LB Channing Tindall, who is still with the team as a rotational player. Kind of on par with what you expected from someone picked in the 3rd round.
The 1st round pick in 2023 was sent to the Broncos as part of the Bradley Chubb trade, and the Broncos traded this pick to the Saints for the rights to HC Sean Payton. The Saints would use this pick on DT Bryan Bresee, and while it is still too early to evaluate, Bresee is shaping up to be a solid presence in the Saints defensive line.
Hindsight is 20/20, but if Parsons was still available on the board at 12th, there is no way the 49ers would pass up bolstering their potent front 7 by adding Parsons (imagine Parsons AND Bosa coming at the QB together). The 49ers would not have picked Strange in 2022 given the chance, but they would have gone for the guy picked after him: George Karlaftis. The 49ers must be kicking themselves to let the Chiefs have Karlaftis and McDuffie (who ended up with the Chiefs via proxy from the Dolphins trading picks) Furthermore, Bryan Bresee would have also been a welcome addition to their front 7, especially now that Javon Kinlaw is gone. All the 49ers have to show after trading for Trey Lance, and then trading him away, is a 4th rounder this year (2024), pick yet to be determined. While the 49ers have shown to have found diamonds in the rough before (George Kittle and Talanoa Hufanga), anyone they pick is probably nowhere near the caliber of Micah Parsons, George Karlaftis, or Bryan Bresee.
As a Jets fan, I hate the Chargers. They stole Slater, although I am a fan of AVT, praying he is healthy, but they could do something dumb at pick 5 this year, that affects us.
As a chargers fan we love slater. Need a right tackle tho. At 5 we likely take reciever but hoping we trade up a pick or 2 for marvin harrison jr
Can you do a vid on your view of how the jets did addressing their o line this off season?
The thing about Mac is not only the missing of help, but also the availabe QB prospects and the need at 15
can u do a piece on nfl dad/sons and compare plse?
Imagine this class of QB ends up like that class of QB. Last years was hyped but not near as much as this year or 2021.
This draft played out exactly like I thought and I’m rarely right about this stuff 😂
Whats up Football Analysis 👋🏾
What’s up OG supporter how you been king hope all is well
@FootballAnalysis1 I'm great man. Hope you are doing good too 👍🏾
The slim reaper pick is an A+ especially considering the Eagles track record with drafting receivers.
Crazy the the 9ers were able to get more in return for Lance than what the Bears got for Fields.
"Girth makes a big difference" - Football Analysis, 2024
Crazy that when the Bears traded up to get Fields, many analysts thought it was genius. He was a highly rated prospect. I hope he improves in Pittsburgh.
Good that you admit that you agreed with the picks that later became the draft busts. And that the draft grade is not always on the player but how the player was used by the team. Shows honesty and that fans can be overly critical of draft busts. Every team has plenty.
I feel bad at how the new first round QB picks have turned out and been treated but it goes to show just how bad their respective organizations have been and continue to be. Surprisingly, this includes the Patriots, along with the Bears and Jets.
Nowhere did the Bears give Fields any offensive weapons nor offensive system. Instead of trading down or staying strong to draft Marvin Harrison Jr. they traded Fields away. Jets did attempt to give Wilson with AVT but looking at how he moved around signals just how bad the rest of the OL must have been. Jets did no favors by kowtowing to Rodgers demands to get his OC and players. Incredibly, Rodgers seeks to be VP before getting shutdown by RFK himself.
I feel bad for Trey Lance I do genuinely hope he can start somewhere and get the shot he never really got
He doesn’t deserve a shot. The NFL isn’t a daycare
I played more football games in high school than he has played in high school, college, and the NFL combined
@@ataturk_33 damn you’re cool
@@cannonschwarz9554lol the d-riding is crazy
I agree
If the QBs panned out in this draft class 2021 could’ve went down as one of the best ever
id say devonta smith compliments aj brown really well, like how Higgins is with chase
How are all three wrs A or A+? When there was an all pro wr taken in the fourth this class, and they passed on either parsons or all pro OTs.
Anyone know the song title to the last instrumental that started on zach wilson grade?
How do you feel now that fields went to Pittsburg to play under Wilson?
I remember seeing sometime ago that if the Jets didn’t take Alijah Vera-Tucker, the Pats would’ve picked him and then got their QB in the 2nd round with someone like Davis Mills
I’d have to say that the lions didn’t hit a home run, they smashed multiple grand slams!
The 49ers should be lucky they have a stacked roster and lucked out in drafting Purdy. Because screwing up by drafting Lance would have set back most teams for like a few years.
They should have drafted Fields instead of Lance at the time in my opinion.
Fields and Lance are the same player. The 49ers just had an option to move on faster
Fields is not a starting nfl Qb, lol. Never has been.
@@lancesilvis4085 There has been flash it’s not all on Fields even you have to know he been in a dumpster fire for the last few years
@@ataturk_33 Fields is way better then Lance I think he would have done well under Kyle especially in the west coast offense but it looks like at this point Fieids might have to settle in being a backup for a year because the QB market has dried up
@@jalenjohnson0339 Fields cannot read a defense. He made a top 5 offensive line look bad because he holds the ball. He is horrible and people only pretend he isn’t because he’s black. They do the same for Trey Lance and Malik Willis.
Frankly, I and many other sports fans are tired of it. Black quarterbacks are not inherently good because they are “talented” (which, let’s face it, for most people simply means “more black”).
Giving Justin Fields a C is probably the most baffling grade in here to me. He hasn’t had a season with even 3k passing yards nor a season where he played all 17 games in his time in the nfl. Mind you last year he had DJ Moore to throw to and couldn’t hit that 3k passing yards marker. Being a 1000 yard rusher as a quarterback is good but when you are going up against guys like Aaron Rodgers, Kirk Cousins, Jared Goff and now Jordan Love who are all at least franchise level quarterbacks that is no where near good enough. If you want to be generous to Fields than he’s a D with the saving grace being his rushing ability, if we are being honest then an F it is. When you are in a quarterback dominate division you can’t be caught with a sub 3k passer
fr, I feel like he only did that so he wouldn’t get hate, Fields has been worse than Mac ffs
3000 passing yards +1000 rushing yards=4000 yards
@@youtubeistryingtocensormeFields only had sub 3k seasons
2021 - 12 games played - 1870 passing yards - 420 rushing yards - 2290 total yards
2022 - 15 games played - 2242 passing yards - 1143 rushing yards - 3385 - total yards
2023 - 13 games played - 2562 passing yards - 657 rushing yards - 3219 total yards
Even if we combine his best passing yards in a year with his best rushing yards in a year (3705 total in this made up case) he’s still not a 4k combine quarterback. Mind you Jordan Love put up 4416 combine yards (4159 passing yards and 257 rushing yards) and Jared Goff put up 4596 combine yards (4575 passing yards and 21 rushing yards). Neither of them ran as much but still have better numbers than the fictional best for Justin Fields.
Counterpoint.
A. He's on the bears, they haven't had a passing offense in decades
B. He's been their entire rushing offense because they have no good RBs or OL
C. Most of the bears losses in 2022 were 1 score games, so they traded their no.1 pick to the panthers and now have the no.1 again, DJ Moore and still have their own first
You're a hater
Zach played behind the worst offensive line in football and still had a lot of good moments like his last complete game played which was against Houston. That game he threw for over 300 yards and multiple touchdowns in a monsoon so I would say he still has lots of upside.
A B for TL, eye roll. Dude took his team to the playoffs with his 1st year with a real coach, and last year lead the league in dropped passes and TD. Trevor is all that.
When you trade your future away for a first round pick, you kinda don't get the luxury to redshirt him. He has to be an immediate impact player. You don't give away 3 picks, Multiple firsts, and a pick swap for a "project player". Thats the kind of deal that you could get for a current MVP. Imo, thats the kind of deal you give to get Joe Burrow, Patrick Mahomes, etc.

This draft is a cautionary tale to any GM'S thinking about taking a QB in the top 10-15 who is not a can't miss. Every year the hype machine cranks up to elevate undeserving QB's, and they get picked over all pros at other positions.
I knew micha parsons was a beast, i didnt know he ran a 4.3 40....god damn.
coming into the draft I said that Pitts was the most likely to be a HoFer. I felt his ceiling was that high and chance at near ceiling career; now I didn't think he'd be the best player in the draft, I felt Sewell was most likely to be the best player but HoF is a different beast.
I would give Trey Lance an incomplete grade. We were never given a proper sample size and he wasn’t a great fit for the 49ers timing offense. I’d like to see him over a period of several games before saying he was an F. I’m now curious what you grade you gave Jordan Love after essentially sitting for 3 years before playing
Think he gives the grade becuase how much the niners gave up and I'm sure they gave him every opportunity to beat out Jimmy g but he couldn't
he didn’t look good when he did play
Ngl I’ve thought about what grade I’ll give Jordan Love for a few weeks now. I think you can make a case they win a SB if they draft Tee Higgins where Love was
It’s going to be tough to grade and I’ll address that in the video
Zach Wilson deserves an incomplete even more so than Trey Lance. The reasoning, Trey was replaced by Purdy who was also a rookie and shined. Doesn't look good for Trey. On the other hand, no QB looked good for the Jets including 4x MVP Aaron Rodgers who lasted all of 4 plays. Plus Joe Flacco looked completely done playing for the Jets and the following year led the Browns to the playoffs while also winning comeback player of the year.
Sewell and Parsons are future Hall of famers.
What’s crazy is I think the 3rd best player from this draft was Amon ra st brown and he was a 4th round pick.
Then I’d say other great picks were surtain, Chase, and Slater.
That was good buy why didn’t you do it in draft order as you get an even greater impact on how good or bad the selections were?
As a Bengals fan, i was pessimistic about them taking Chase over Sewell when they already had Tee Higgins and Tyler Boyd, but my stance has definitely changed since then. Still, if only if they had been able to get Sewell... 😔
Jaylen Waddle made a huge impact right out of gate 14:38
One thing I’d suggest is grading teams instead of players in a slightly longer video, splitting into afc and nfc. Just saying because at a rams fan, we aren’t talked about at all
Rashawn Slater was a absolute excellent pick by the Chargers cause he's very special young man but he really ment something to the team at Right Tackle without a doubt 4:40
Is there any particular reason why the Jets always seem to draft USC players at a higher rate than other teams?
Can we give the Cahse pick an A++
All the analysts gave the Bengals crap about that pick and its seriously one of the pest picks of recent memory
2:00 agree it should be a F especially the 2022 and 23 seasons. But that also should be on Belichick. The free agency signings of 2021 were a disaster especially on offense with overpaying Jonnu and Henry at TE, Agholor at WR. Then the OC hirings. Man which qb would succeed with Patricia/Judge running offense. Only Bourne was a n ok signing. Missed out on Hopkins who ended up signing for more with the Titans.
I think this is one of your best evaluations. My only quibble is that Parsons has so spectacular that he deserved an A++.
Thank you so much Terry!
I agree with mostly everything and I'm not a Jags fan but Trevor should probably be an A- . When grading picks, I do like to weigh opportunity cost of what the team could have reasonably picked at the spot at that time and how that would have worked out better or worse.
Short of trading away the spot, the Jags smashed that pick. They needed a QB. The only other reasonable pick at the time would have been...Zach Wilson. Trevor has helped make them a legitimate playoff caliber team instead of an expected bottom 5-10.
Now if the discussion was "how many NFL Qbs are worth an A grade?", then maybe he deserves a B because there are enough other QBs I'd rather helm my franchise for a year.
But I also consider he had the equivalent of a "lost" year with his first coach and how other QBs fared afterward when they had massive coaching changes. The only ones that havent pretty much "sucked" in the past 5 or so years have been Justin Herbert and Trevor Lawrence. That pops him into the A tier for me. If so many of these other "top prospects" couldnt handle it and he could, that makes him better than "above average" in my grading (even though i suppose "average" is Failing for these other QBs, lol)
Micah Parsons is the absolute animal with the Cowboys no doubt this guy out of Penn State University is the real deal pretty soon he'll be a future NFL's Defensive player of the year for sure...A+ 5:51
I wish you graded my papers in school, an A for effort lol
The thing about Jaylen Waddle is that he has the team record for the most consecutive 1000 yard seasons, so in my eyes he is an A+
He's not he's not as dominat as guys like Chase that's what separates A's from A+s
@@dropssky I agree with you
Besides the clayton/duper era of the 80s with dan the man throwing to them, who have they ever had as a dominant wr? Marshall was a joke and past his prime btw
@@zackwoodward4430 tyreek hill is dominant
@@Waddle_breaks waddle had his best season when reek wasn't there, you think he wouldn't be dominant if he hadn't been traded there?
Peneii Sewell is without question a BEAST as a excellent Right Tackle this guy will be the real heart and soul to the Detroit Lions franchise for years to come but I will love it if he wins a Super Bowl Ring with the Lions I know that he came so close to going to his 1st Super Bowl after reaching the NFC Championship title game for the 1st time for the right to go to the Super Bowl but it's not his fault the Lions will run it back of 2024 13:16
The Bears got a sixth round pick for Fields.
Love Parsons but something that needs to be addressed from the Cards game onward this past season is that you can run straight at him and control the game. It’s kind of the story of the Cowboys right now, they have super talented players without a complete skill set and teams that can attack those beat them. Usually pretty badly. Not really his fault, he’s small to be responsible for holding the amount of ground he’s asked to, but the fact that he’s a liability in the scheme they’ve been running is a problem.
10:47 Its almost insane to consider the Broncos drafted a Pro Bowl CB and ended up worse for it. I can guarantee you the Russell Wilson trade happened because of the backlash to this pick. Most Broncos fans DESPISED this pick and immediately began calling for George Paton's job because he didn't pick Fields here. Even though corner was a legit need for the Broncos because of letting Chris Harris and Bradley Roby go. Even though basically all common sense in the world told you that Fields was probably gonna be a bust. Even as someone who liked the pick, I find myself going "Man I wish we had drafted Fields here, because at least if we draft Fields and he still ends up a bust, we probably don't trade the equivalent of 4 first round picks and 100 million dollars of cap space for Russell Wilson, who mind you, played worse than Fields for most of his tenure in Denver."
I'll save you some time with the Packers : Eric Stokes - F
W video by the goat
🐐
Hurts to hear all that talent on the panthers released and gone... the organization has done reshape and rebuild after rebuild.
Truly in the lows after ownership transition. Hope its just another 1-3years and panthers on the up n up. And not eternal ineptitude...
I hate Mac Jones, but to give him a D+ and Fields a C is just disrespectful, he has been way worse than Mac and was in better situation, people just like Fields because he can run fast, he’s a big bust and will be a backup just like Mac
One of the biggest disappointed QB class probably in the last decade
Zach Wilson gets an F in 2022 for being benched when he started 5-2...after Flacco started the Jets' season at 1-2. He gets an F in 2023 for being benched again (as a backup), and only going 5-6 on a Nathaniel Hackett-led offense, and behind an OL so bad that Aaron Rodgers lasted only four plays into the season. Who will become the next QB bust drafted by the Jets?
"Micah is far from the reason" the only thing Micah did in against the Packers is draw a single holding penalty.
Justin just went to pitt
Can't believe the lowly Lions passed up a chance to draft Justin Fields to draft an offensive lineman. BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
I feel like my boy Mac Jones got done dirty! granted I'm from Alabama and I'm biased but still though
Parsons actually is part of the reason the cowboys have underperformed in the playoffs. Dude is a disappearing act late in the season
Sewell is the best Tackle in football, Left or Right. Lifetime Lion and future Hofer
Trevor Lawerence and Justin Herbert defenders will say “he needs a better coach weapons and defense!!” While telling you Brock Purdy is just a game manager in the same breath.
I don’t get it 🤦🏻♂️ also, picks like Zach Wilson and Trey Lance should be a tier worse than F. They were catastrophic draft choices.
Patrick Surtain II he's awesome no doubt he is amazing 11:51
Reverse the Z. Wilson / M. Jones grades and I'd pretty much agree with this list. You forget NE was a championship level franchise when M. Jones arrived (or at least a season removed from it) while the Jets had been bad for a while. Jones 1st year really wasn't that amazing, and he has been pure dogcrap since, tanking the franchise on the way. An F if I've ever seen one. Hope he proves me wrong in Jax.
Everyone he talked about, even if saying they were underwhelming, he was able to find a positive play clip of them...EXCEPT Zach Wilson. All interceptions for Wilson. It'd be hilarious if I wasn't a Jets fan.
