What Is This Guy Smoking?

Post by RanDux »

In his mock draft, USA Today insider, Farrar, doesn't even have Herbert in the 1st round. Laughable.

There’s a reason NFL teams aren’t knocking this guy’s door down to hire him as a scout or analyst. That said, it’s not a completely stupid move, for him. 1st round QBs have over 50% chance of being busts. If Herbert has a great career, no one remembers this article, or if anyone does he says “Herbert landed in a perfect spot with great coaches.” If Herbert follows the odds and fails, this guy will never stop talking about how he “was the only one” warning us about Herbert.

Not a bad strategy to make a name for yourself.

LA Chargers go QB, they either grab Love of Herbert. if Chargers grab Love watch for Herbert to fall to New England.

I take ANYTHING that a sell-described "insider" says with a grain of salt...

Wouldn't you love that! So would my brother. He is already hoping they grab Troy Dye.

If anyone in the NFC North goes after a QB I think it may be the Lions over the Packers. Not sure anyone wants to see an Oregon QB go to Detroit though.

Seriously. I just want him to go somewhere where he’s not considered the savior of the franchise. It’s a weird dynamic. Can you imagine a team drafting a LB and pinning all their hopes on whether he turns out to be a pro-bowl caliber LB?

To address the OP's primary query, in the words of an old DEA acquaintance, "Smells like horseshite and oregano!"
