it's already on wikipediaESPN just gave it away not that its a shocker that Jones is going to NE.
Has the gadget WR ever worked?
Um, yeah it is
I’ve heard it a million times (see what I did there Einstein)

I like the move down. The Bears first rounder will prob be a better pick than the GiantsI only meant the thinking was the Giants wanted Smith and Eagles made deal with Dallas to move up and take him. I would assume the Giants could've made the same deal with Dallas. They either got outflanked or they wanted to move down and get more picks and a first rounder next year which they did.
Fields has all the measurables, just like Trubisky did. I do think he will be good, but you really never know. 75% of being an NFL QB is between the ears. That's why I am plenty happy New England got Jones.
Yeah that was done deal down in Duval for awhile. Trevor was the Pick.“Hoping Jax goes for Lawrence” suggests you had some kind of doubt.
With the caveat that no one knows anything about drafting quarterbacks, there is absolutely zero about this Mac Jones pick that excites me. Why do you think the part between the ears favors Jones over Fields? I'm not saying you're wrong, I just don't see any reason to think that's the case. Fields is a smart kid - the stuff about not being able to go through his progressions is refuted by the actual tape - and he's certainly tough as hell. He could have shut it down rather than load up his rib cage with cortisone so he could go out and play Clemson. I think the Trubisky comparison is almost laughably unfair to the kid.

Mahomes is one of the greatest passers/drop back qb's the league has ever seen, he wasn't chased as a mobile QB. He was chased because he has one of the greatest arms ever seen, he has to run around sometimes especially at the end of the season because he had no line. Trubisky is a mobile qb, his problem is decision making and bad accuracy deep.As for the Bears and MT it is not like he can't play the game. Matching the QB with the right coaching staff is important. Fields is more mobile than MT. Not everyone can be Mahomes or Jackson though. The fact Brady is still standing with only one real bad injury impacting a season is hard to fathom. Everyone is chasing the mobile QB trend but will these guys still be healthy at 30 yo? Mahomes may as he gets out of bounds often. Hopefully Fields does the same.
Craziest part was they moved up to draft him, instead of just drafting Mahomes or Watson.Trubisky, to me, is Exhibit A of a kid who gets drafted way too high because he looks good getting off the bus. He wasn't even that good in college. Bananas that he went second.
