gambling odds have shifted big to JD -275 now he was -155 a few days ago.
draftkings added a lot of new plays. this should be fun for the people doing tons of mocks

“He can get through progressions, at least can read the defense and identify who’s going to be open and where they’re gonna be open and throw the ball in rhythm and timing that is relatable to that concept.”
“He’s good out of a bunch set. Layering the ball down the field over linebackers on some of the little run-action, play-action throws. To really drive it in over linebackers is awesome. I think he’s very accurate.”
“He takes some risks, but I think he also takes necessary risks in the moments of the game where you’re like, Oh, that’s a bad decision…But a lot of the times, I think he’s got a good flow for the game and how he’s managing exactly that.”

That's based on the same flawed premise I've spoken to before -- JD is not LJ, not should he be, and thank god he's not. He's a far better quarterback, and, as such, won't need to run 10-12 times a game.
Jayden's a QB who is also an excellent runner. Jackson is a RB who takes snaps and also can throw to his TE -- most of the time.
Really hope we don't see those that favor either JD or DM posting anti-other pieces after this post.

Little less than 9 days left. Lets declare peace and agree that whomever the Commanders draft or trade down and draft that its the best move pick/move ever.But there's sooooo much new ground to cover...

Yup. Now it's a game of finding sufficient distraction for NINE days. I'm thinking of taking up street drugs. Not sure it'll make time fly, but I imagine I won't remember what I was trying not to think about anymore.
(Oh, wait. Except for the trade down part.

it's almost certain to be JD
which I am fine with. Only concern is his frame.
But for the sheer athleticism, deep ball skills, readiness to play right away and meshing so well with the Kingsbury philosophy...odds are very high it will be him

Inside Bill Belichick's failed offseason job hunt
As the NFL has moved on from this year's firing-and-hiring cycle, two questions remain: Why is Bill Belichick suddenly and seemingly unemployable? And will he coach again?

Agreed. There shall be a moratorium on the "who's better?" talk until such time that whomever "the other guy" is proves to be better than our guy. At such time, the original supporters of "the other guy" get to gloat respectfully for 14 days, and the staunch supporters of the guy we chose have to eat shit during that time.
Once that time expires, everyone must return to supporting our guy, only silently lamenting the "grass is greener" reality. At this point, it would be really great if a brand new DC linebacker (to be drafted later) were to accidentally rip a leg off of "the other guy," preferably during a football game, though we, the undersigned, will be flexible on that minor detail.
And so it is written.

OK, since we need something to fill the next 8 days: We need to trade back in to #7 to take Alt. Fight me.

Lot of praise for the commanders approach of bringing in bulk recruits for interviews in the pre-draft process.
It's like a field trip of recruits coming to DC for a big job interview, not only can you efficiently talk to all the QB prospects, you can see character in how they interact. Must be very exciting.

Interesting. “What not to do?”. Meh. They will pick whomever the hell they want to, and the other 3 can pound sand.
Come on…..JJ McCarthy!!

Florio sounds like a secret St. Louis Cardinal fan trying to police 'unwritten' rules.
I find it dubious needing more time one on one is needed eight days or so before the draft. If I was one of those four player I'd probably dig that it is more of a social mixer vibe and they could relax a bit more. All those 4 are competitors so would be interesting to see if just any little thing pops loose in that type of social situation.
Well, well.
If Daniels complained then the process worked. I don’t see why his agent would be criticizing the Commanders if his client was happy with the visit…
Either way, super dumb on their part.

I mean I can get it from the agent point of view he wants JD to go #2 (naturally) so I do find it entertaining he was indirectly complaining about it.
I thought I read JD came in the afternoon the day before but not sure if they met with him solo that evening before the next day thing.

My best guess is that JJs charisma and abundance of football knowledge bestowed upon him by Harbaugh really wowed everyone there, and that’s what has Jayden’s agent doing this.
