anyone else feel like the Jets gave up too much for a guy that's about to be 40 and is coming off the worst season of his career?
Stetson Bennett IV???

I saw someone point out that if one of your buddies said he was going to spend a week in a dark room to decide his future, and came out and wanted to be a Jet, you'd have him committed.

I dunno. A declining weirdo QB is a good plan for Green Bay.

The odds of Will Levis going #1 swung from 40-1 to 4-1 this morning based on a Reddit post claiming Levis was telling friends and family he was going #1.

God bless anyone so desperate they are gambling on the NFL Draft

How he's even being talked as a 1st round pick blows my mind. Same for Richardson. Maybe less for Richardson because he's so freakishly talented in terms of being 6'4, 245 pounds running a 4.4 in the 40 and having one of the strongest arms in at least the last several drafts when you're talking pure strength/velocity/distance. Levis has....what exactly?

I actually do like Levis, as a late first round pick.  But if you are picking late in the first round, you are likely close to a title contender, and probably not in need of a rookie QB.

I think it's a team trading up into the 1st to take him late.  I think in my mock, it was the Colts.

Rodgers is just following Favre's footsteps, bypassing Minnesota.

I don't like the later date for the draft.  It's just weeks of additional build-up and makes me feel like it doesn't take place until June.

I also don't love that they put it in prime time on Thursday. I love the shorter clock. And granted with all of my kids activities, it's not like I can dedicate a random Saturday in April to watching the draft, but before they moved it, Saturday of the draft was a major day drinking day

I didn't watch Levis that much, but when he played the Dawgs he wasn't very impressive at all, to me.  Shroud was impressive, Young was impressive, Levis?  Not.  Richardson was very erratic.  Duggan looked better than the two of them, and his team got creamed.

I don't get the Levis thing, were he to end up UDFA wouldn't have shocked me at all.
