*****2024 NFL DRAFT THREAD - NO SPOILERS*****

[Dante84]

Version 2024 - PATRICK MAHOMES & THE HUNT FOR THE THREEPEAT

Let's ****ing do this.

Rules for once the draft begins:

1. No spoiled picks in this thread, all weekend. This means that as tweets are leaking picks a few minutes before the selection is announced live, you don't post it in this thread (ex: embedded tweets), reference it in this thread (ex: Joe Slapdick says it's So and So to Green Bay) or hint at it (ex: "it's a RB!").
   
2. Don't be a dick.

Otherwise, have fun, talk shit, freak out and lose your goddamned minds. It's Draft Weekend. The hot takes in these threads are so funny. I'll also be starting player threads for each of our picks as they are made, with videos and notable stats/takes in the OP. These separate threads will be made as soon as the news breaks, outside of this thread. I will link the threads below. Pure knee-jerk gold to reference in the future.

Here are our picks:

Round 1, #28: Xavier Worthy
Round 2, #63: Kingsley Suamataia
Round 4, #131: Jared Wiley
Round 4, #133: Jaden Hicks
Round 5, #159: Hunter Nourzad
Round 6, #211: Kamal Hadden
Round 7, #248: C.J. Hanson

Here is a list of the prospects the Chiefs have shown interest in this year.

You're just being obtuse at this point.

Nobody said they're 100% identical in every measurement, but they are VERY similar.

Also, production and measurables are two totally different things. He's definitely not as productive, and he's not even as good.

But the fact that his measurables are very similar is the difference between him and the guys people want to compare him to. That's what makes him a late 1st early 2nd type of prospect.

Combine numbers don't make a player...JFC

They're being mentioned because everyone figured his testing wouldn't match his tape cause well he's a white WR...come to find out his testing is really good to go along with his really good game tape.

you mean height weight and 40 time?

just gonna ignore arm length, hand size, 10 yard split? Kind of valuable for a guy who uses his hands to do his job.

The difference in arm length and hands isn't all that significant either. It's not like he can't catch the football. Neither guy is going to win like a big man either.

Again, nobody said they're identical, but they're absolutely very similar from a measurables standpoint.

And there are just as many close to mecole's, including production on the field.

He's closer to a 2nd round pick than he is Garrett ****ing Wilson my god people

Passing on a high ceiling QB with Caleb Williams, Jordan Love and a good Lions team in your division?

Guys I think I found Carl Peterson’s burner

You apparently missed the other post..

Look at broad, 10 yard split and vertical.

[VAGOMO 4 LIFE!]

Ladd would be an excellent choice here! He’s literally everything you want in a player

ARM
32’’
HAND
9 7/8’’

ARM
30 1/4’’
HAND
8 5/8’’

That's a pretty ****ing sizeable difference dude

Comparing a guy who is a nuanced route runner and possibly the best one in the draft, to Mecole Hardman a guy who 5 years into his NFL career still isn't a good route runner..those 2 players should never be compared, Hardman is an athlete that plays football, McConkey has a much much better understanding of how to play his position.

Way to show your evaluation skills man.

That last part I would agree with if we're just talking about them as prospects. Wilson was WR1 in his class and nowhere near the 32nd pick.

We're talking specifically about measurables.

I'm not a huge McConkey fan but even I know he isn't Mecole ****ing Hardman.
