All I'll say is I believe that Brock Purdy will show that he is worth the money they just paid him and his favorite target this year will be Ricky Pearsall.

No doubt he has been a talented QB but that talent has waned considerably.the last couple of years. What concerns me about him is the drama he's brought to himself lately. He was all fired.up to be the Rodgers of old when he went to the Jets. Sadly that fire was.quickly extinguished in part because of his Achilles injury. Even when he returned he seemed to have a lack of confidence and a kind of didn't care attitude. Now he's gone from the Jets and has left the NFL in limbo while we all wait for his decision on whether he's going to play or retire. Even if he plays he's a shell of his former self and he should consider if he wants to put himself to the agony of being not very good. He has no doubt pissed off several NFL teams that were courting him for his services and the league, teams and fans are feed up with his drama and ego of himself. I don't care if he plays again and he certainly wouldn't be on any of my fantasy roster unless the wheels fall off of my other QBs. Sorry for dragging this on but in all his drama and ego stroking he should be a first ballot Hall of Famer. His accolades support it with 4 MVPs and one Superbowl ring. For years people wanted Rodgers on their fantasy teams as he could really help you win but it's just sad that for all his talent and accolades people will look at Roger's as a prima Donna that has just drawn too much negative attention to himself but love him or hate him he will be a first ballot Hall of Famer. Now he just needs to retire and ride of jnro the sunset and give us all the courtesy of not dealing with his drama.

Regardless of who starts, whether it's Richardson or Daniel Jones the only player worth having in fantasy is Jonathan Taylor. Even though Tyler Warren is touted as a pretty good TE he'll put up modest numbers at best. Colts won't be any better until they get a franchise type QB.

I figured it'd get done before training camp. Much deserved IMO. If the 49ers can stay healthy this year then Purdy has the skills to gets to the playoffs even after losing Deebo and Aiyuk not healthy yet. Not worried about the run game but if CMC stays healthy he'll put up good numbers and he has a capable backup in Geurendo. I'm looking for a breakout year for Ricky Pearsall which will help and Jennings is still there. Kittle is still a top 5 TE. Schedule will help so at this point I'm optimistic about the 49ers season and glad Brock Purdy got his bag.

So looks like the Sainys may not win a lot of games thus year putting them.close to maybe getting Arch Manning.if he's.their guy. Buy, not so fast. They have 3 QBs on the roster. Tyler.Shough slots in at QB1. He's 25.but a little old for rookie QBs. Jake Haener is 26 and probably won't see.the field. Spencer Ratller is 24. It'll come down to Rattlet and Shough in training camp. I say Tulet Shough gets the week 1 nod over Rattler. If they hope for Manning next year they should play Shough right away to see what they have. Doubt that he'll light it up but could be serviceable. Olave still.can't stay healthy so their best receiver could be Rashid Shaheed. He's good at getting deep but can Shough get the ball to him? We'll see. I think they'll roll with Shough all year long and could still be in the Manning sweepstakes and if they get him then Shough could be related to #2 on the depth chart. For fantasy Shough would be no more than a lower #3 QB and knly a bye week fill-in or injury replacement unless he turns in some decent games then his stock would move up. Odds are.against the Saints but they have who they have and IMO they should give Shough the nod.

Now that the draft is over there's high expectations for players this year. I'm curious to see what you guys think on who will be the Offensive and Defensive Rookie of the Year. There's.a lot of players who could garner this award this year. So, let us know who you think will win it on both sides of the ball. Will they win it because of heir talent or because of the team that drafted them. Also, if you care to, what kind of production do you see coming from these potential ROY'S. I have some guys in mind and will post here later but I'm interested to get you guys opinions because a lot of you are very knowledgeable about football in terms of real and fantasy. I'm.sure some of you will nail the ROY on offense and defense so let us know your players and why they will win the award. Thanks for your input.

Yup, there's just too many other rookies on offense that should put up better numbers than Hunter and while he might be in the conversation for OROY he'll be down on the list of other rookie players. If he's got a mindset on winning a rookie award he'd be best served tk have his focus on the defensive side n of the ball. As stated he's probably going to need at least 4 if not 5 int's and probably would need a puck 6 in there too. The teams he'll be going.against.will be well aware of his abilities and they may even choose to NOT throw the ball to whomever he's tasking to cover. If that be the case then he could struggle tk even put up numbers worthy of DROY. As much as I hate to say it he could be spreading himself a little thin in working both sides of the ball but his coordinators should have enough smarts to not overwork this kid. If he's overworked it could be a risk of jnjury.and then he's no good to anyone. Personally I'd just like to see him.stick to defense but we'll see.how they use him starting September.

Yeah Hunter would have to play amazingly well on offense to win but there's just.oo many other guys, RB &WR, that will put up better numbers than Hunter. I.don't think Hunter will even come close to the production that Brian Thomas will put up so I'd.scratch Hunter from.the offensive list for ROY. He's probably got a better chance at winning defensive rookie of the year.Anyway, he's probably a better cornerbacj than receiver but there again there's numerous other guys playing defense that.will outplay Hunter but if.Huntet is to win rookie of the year it'll be on defense.

Doh,lol. My age,73, tends to make my brain confused at times. You are right with Judkins going to Ohio State. I just drafted Judkins 4th overall in a recent rookie draft. I still stand by my pick of Omarion Hampton to win offensive rookie of the year. The Chargets should be improved from last year and.the drafting of Hampton means they're going to focus on the run game. Certainly that'll be the case also for Raiders RB Ashton Jeanty, whom.I'm.sure will be a lot of people's favorite to win OROY. I have a real darhorse candidate for OROY. Jacksonville Jaguars RB BHAYSHUL TUTEN. He currently is slotted in as the #3 EB on the depth chart behind Travis Etienne and Tank Bigsby. I feel Bigsby outplayed Etienne which makes me think that Etjenne's not gonna get the touches he's hoping for this year. If Tuten has a.good training.camp.and preseason Etienne could find himself on the bottom of the depth chart. Yrs, it'd be hard for Tuten to get.the majority of touches as I'm certain the coaching staff will want to see.that Bigsby involved a good bit so TUTEN would really have to wow the coaching staff to be the lead.dog. Yup, it's a hard hill for him to climb but we've seen similar stuff happen before so.while he's a real Longshot I'll swing for the fences with him as my darkhorse to win OROY.

I'll take a.stab at.it. Offensive ROY- RB OMARION HAMPTON(Chargers) We know Jim Harbaugh wants to run the ball and he's got an rb that can carry the kind of load it would take to win rookie of the year. Hampton's running mate at Ohio State, Treyvion Henderson, was suppose to be drafted before Hampton and a lot of pundits.would say Henderson is the better of the 2 backs. So now Omarion's hellbent on showjng the NFL and the rest of the teams that passed on him exactly what kind of RB he is. I don't think it's out of the question that this youngster could push.close to 1,500 rushing yards this year. He'll have competition in Ashton Jeanty who's pretty darn good but I think the Raiders are going to be forced to throw the ball a lot more just to stay in games thus limiting Jeanty's rushing totals. So RB OMARION HAMPTON is my candidate for OROY. Defensive ROY- DB JAHDAE BARRON- don't have a lot if insight, analysis or prjjection for this rookie but it's more of a gut feeling that at the end of the season he walks away with DROY. I will say though that he's going to have at least 5 INT's maybe more and maybe surprise some people by scoring 2 touchdowns and toss in a few sacks for good measure. So there you have mone.so feel free to rip it apart. OROY- RB OMARION HAMPTON DROY- DB JAHDAE BARRON

DOH, yeah my bad. Should bake looked more closely and would have seen it was Dillon Gabriel they drafted. Even so Shedeur Sanders went to a team where he will have a real chance of being the starter. Gabriel will push Sanders and we'll see who comes out on top after training camp. Thanks for pointed out my mistake.

Yeah he'll have to battle Tyrone Tracy for carries but if the Giants work things right I believe Skattebo could have a productive year. And yes it is fun just to say his name. I know Kyle Brandt of Good Morning Football is pretty happy the Giants were able to get Skattebo.

I would give the Giants an A grade on their draft. Abdul Carter will be a beast. My Grandson is a Commanders fan and he's not looking forward to facing the Giants defense twice a year. Their defense.should be better this year. I really liked when they moved back into the 1st round to draft.QB Jaxson Dart. He couldnend up.having a great career.and I hope their O-line gives the rookie thenprotection he'll need going against the rest of the teams.in the NFC EAST, especially facing the Eagles twice.a.year. I also really like the pick of RB.Cam Scattebo in the 4th round. Should be a pretty.good rb combo with Skattebo.and.last year rookie Tyrone Tracy who.had a good rookie year. They did get some help for the O-line in take offensive lineman MBOW. I think overall the Giants will definitely improve from.last season but we'll see how they do in a tough division with 3 other pretty good QBs.

Yrs I think they had one of the better drafts of all the teams. I wouldn't be surprised if they finished in 2nd place below the reigning division Champs the Buffalo Bills. I'm rooting for Drake Maye to have a pretty good 2nd year and hope his receivers help him out.

Yeah NOBODY, I'm gonna have to agree with you on Mr. Sanders. I'm.sure Shedeur thinks himself as NFL caliber starting QB and I'm.sure daddy Deion thinks the same. It was said that some of the interviews Shedure had with some teams were not so pleasing and desirable to some of the NFL teams. Maybe it could have been some cockiness he had of himself and how talented he thinks he is. Yes I do agree that he does have some talent. The rub here with him is whatever team drafts him, that being the BROWNS, he will bring some baggage along with himself that I don't think a lot of the teams wanted to deal with. No doubt daddy DEION orchestrated a lot of his pre-draft personna that probably left a lot of teams not wanting to deal with Shedeur and Deion drama which will certainly happen. Deion is gonna have his analysis on his boy.and push to have him.playing sooner than later. Shedeur does have talent and it'll be interesting tonsee how things shake out in training camp when he'll be looking to prove he's more talented than Riley Leonard. He may be, but if he focuses on.how he can help the Browns win there's a chance he could end up starting week1 for Cleveland. Even with his talent he still wasn't drafted until the 5th round. That to me just shows what all the NFL thought of the young Sanders. Looking at the depth chart for the Browns QBs it is far far from.stellar. I don't think that Joe Flacco should be the starter and Shedeur should be able to beat out Kenny Pickett. So as I see it the battle between Leonard and Sanders in training camp will yell who will be the Browns starter week1. In reality Shedeur probably landed in the best spot for himself given the current Browns QB roster and that should at least provide him with the opportunity to prove he should be the starter come week.1 for Cleveland. We are.just getting started with the Shedeur.and Deion show and.just wondering when it's.going to implode leaving the Browns thinking.if they made a mistake in drafting Shedeur. I'm not wanting to bash Shedeur and I hope for his sake he handles this process like a pro. I do hope he has a good career but we will surely witness some hub bub with him as.teams.start off-season workout and then into training camp. Yet at this point I'm rooting for Riley Leonard to win the Browns starting gig. If that happens then I bet Deion will not be a happy camper.

Since free agency has started and a bunch of players finding.new homes their departures leave hole the teams need to address. We know that strange things can happen the the NFL Draft and there's likely going to be some moves up and moves down in the first round. I like to see what you guys think could be some BOLD MOVES in the 2025 Draft. Are there some dark horses that make a bold move to get to the top of the draft to.grab one of the touted couple of QBs. Will some team fall in love with a RB enough to toss caution to the wind and snatch them up before another team gets a chance at them. So feel free to post any BOLD MOVES you think might happen in the 2025 NFL Draft.

I would love that move. I posted earlier that I thought the Cowboys would trade up to #5 but never considered the 49ers moving up. While it would be a great addition to my 49ers they have so many other holes/needs from all the players that left in the offseason. They could still get a RB in the early second but they really need to address the O-line and multiple spots on defense.

Obviously this guy is a phenomenal athlete. Whatever team drafts him.won't be disappointed. It was mentioned in the profile that the teams that are a best fit for his talent were the Packers, Raiders, Jaguars, Patriots, Giants and Browns. The first 3 teams listed won't even get a sniff to draft him. Probably the Patriots won't get the chance either. I'd be very surprised if he isn't drafted within the first 3 picks. The Giants areprobably hoping that the Browns take Sanders so they can scarf him up at #3. Yet he should be a lock to be drafted in the first 3 picks. While he's an exceptional cornerback he receiving skills could use a little work, especially his route running. He's said if he can't play both offense and defense he'd rather not play football. Therein lies his conundrum. While he played both sides of the ball in college it was not against NFL players. The grind of a full NFL season is going to tax hus body and also increases the odds of getting injured. I hope that doesn't happen but because he'll be a dual player he could well have a target on his back. He'd probably be best served to play cornerback full time and receiving part-time at least early to get acclimated to the NFL grind. It'll.be fun to watch he play and hope garners success on both sides of the ball

Can't remember Peyton and Eli's brothers name but he's still a Manning. Regardless of Arch's father.not having elite or even average ability for playing sports Arch is still an above average QB. Teams could be beating each other up to try and get him in next years draft. The kid will have a ton of pressure on him to try and live up to Peyton and Eli's legacy. Just hope that what ever team.selects him.foesn't squander his ability by not putting players around him.so he can be successful.

I have the Cowboys trading with the Jaguars for the #5 pick to take RB Ashton Jeanty. If by some chance they don't move up to get Jeanty, which is certainly possible, the could really take a long look at drafting McMillan. He'd probably go pretty good as the #2 alongside CeeDee Lamb. As far as this class of WRs I like Matthew Golden better than McMillan but the Cowboys might like his height better than Golden. If the Cowboys miss out on Jeanty they'll for sure to look at nabbing a WR with their first pick at #12. Whoever they grab I don't think they'll change the Cowboys problems. Only new ownership might change that to a degree.

Thinking about Arch Manning it's not out of the realm for the Saints to lose a lot of games. Yet not so sure tanking will be tolerated by the NFL without some kind of repercussion. Don't know if there are any rules in place that prohibit tanking. If not there should be. So even if the Saints are hellbent on losing games to get a shot at Manning it could be done without too much suspicious activity. Don't know much about Rattler but if the Saints don't take a QB there's a good chance Rattler starts with Derek Carr's health and being able to Plat are in question. Papa Manning is probably hoping his Grandson gets drafted by the Saints.

I still think QB Sanders is rated above Dart. Sanders could be there at 9 but likely gone which leaves Dart. I believe the Saints won't need to trade up to get Dart. If he's there at pick #9 the Saints take him. Likely to sit for awhile or at least until Carr underperformes or misses time. Saints need a QB now so they won't wait until next year.

Yeah not sure mocks are biased. Basically just fun and seeing different points of view which is a good thing. So speaking of fun I see 3 of the above sites have RB Ashton Jeanty going to the Cowboys at #12. First , he won't be on the board at 12. Second, many many sites have Jeanty going to the Raiders at pick #6. I, along with a lot of others would like to see that but unfortunately Jeanty will be gone come the Raiders pick at #6. So, Jerry Jones asserts his financial muscle and trades up with the Jacksonville Jaguars for pick #6 where they DO indeed draft RB Ashton Jeanty. Laugh if you will but it could certainly happen and I think Jerry Jones is ALL IN on drafting RB Jeanty before someone else gets the i dea to move up to get him. So I'm certainly not biased being a 49ers fan but having some fun with my mocks but taking a shot at trade that could actually happen. The Jaguars could use more picks anyeay.

I don't think they take him even if he's there. I say the picks go like this,. 1-Cam Ward, 2-Shedeur Sanders, 3-Travis Hunter, 5- Abdul Carter 5-Ashton Jeanty. At least this is how I think my top 5 picks will go. Feel.bad for the Raiders if they miss out on Jeanty so they'll probably trade back if Jeanty's off the board at #6. I think there's a good chance as well as another runningback goes in the top 10 picks. After seeing what Saquone Barkley did last year teams are now re-evaluating what they think about RBs. The trend is that teams are probably placing more value on rbs but I still only see 3 RBs worthy of being 1st round picks.

Yeah, I don't think that'llhappen but I do have one more bold move involving the Cowboys that'll shake up thr first round a bit. The Cowboys have pick #12 and there's likely an RB available at that pick, Omarion Hampton. I don't think they'll be drafting Hampton but they ARE going totake a rb. They won't wait until the 2nd,3rd or even 4th round to get a rb. I believe they're going to make a.bolder move to get a runningback. It's been pounded in many mock drafts that the Raiders will take RB ASHTON JEANTY with pick #6. I think they're going to end up disappointed to find out that the Cowboys trade with Jacksonville to move up to pick #5 and select RB Ashton Jeanty. Poor Raiders lose out again. This trade is coming straight from the top dog in Dallas Jerry Jones. Before you say they won't draft a RB that high if I recall correctly they select Ezekiel Elliott with pick #4 in a draft year I don't remember but had heard they took Elliott at #4. Jerry certainly knows the Cowboys aren't even going to sniff the playoffs if they don't have a running game. So, I submit my bold move for your dissection, thoughts or disagreements on the Cowboys moving up to puck #5 to take RB ASHTON JEANTY. I don't think it's a far fetched idea but one that could truly happen. Yes we've heard time and time again that the Cowboys need a legit #2 WR opposite CeeDee Lamb to help his production, as if he needs help,LOL. Yet obtaining Ashton Jeanty would boosts Lamb's game in my opinion. So ther you have it, the COWBOYS trade with the JAGUARS to move up to pick #5 and take RB ASHTON JEANTY.
