At least the pick isn't as bad as SF's new uniforms.

Ooooooooooooooooh!

They aren't that bad until you think about what they are replacing. Niners unis are iconic.

The Saints will grab Petty, it's just a matter of time.

That team is doing this offseason perfect, even with all the changes. Still going to contend for their division, but infusing all the next generation with all the picks they aquired this year. They won't miss a beat when Brees retires.

People like you are why teams like this think they can get away with terrible uniform choices

I bet they dump Brees after this season so they don't have to pay him that 20 mill bonus.

Assuming they go QB with their next pick, that isn't a terrible idea. He's getting up there in age, can groom the young guy for a season and gives them the best chance to win their division this year.

I think it was you who always says that a rookie QB should (almost) always sit for a year or two (Andrew Lucks and Peyton Manning's (although he could have sat for a year) not withstanding).

That'd be fine. I really don't like Petty as a prospect, would much rather have someone like Hundley. Petty's a product of Baylor's system. Nick Florence(!!) had just as good of stats his single year starting as Petty. Don't see him as anything more than a back up in the NFL.

I don't buy that product of the system stuff. The guy is 6'3 230 and makes all the throws that NFL QB needs to make.

How could you not buy it when Nick Florence(NICK FLORENCE) put up more yards (4309 vs 4200) and TDs (33 vs 32) than Petty's best year. I'm not questioning his size or toughness (was playing with a broken back for a few games this year), but he didn't have to make a ton of NFL throws in college. Not many anticipation throws where he has to throw before the reciever is open, or those frozen rope 10-12 yard outs that are so important in the pros. Mostly long bombs and play action screens from that offense. Agree to disagree though. And if he slips to the third I wouldn't mind taking him, just didn't want him with our second.

Looks like no QB is going in the 2nd. And I'm glad Gregory went to the Cowboys and not the Patriots.

Bishop picked a great time to get hot.

EDIT: Spoke too soon. That was a Ryan Miller caliber soft goal.

I think both Cleveland and New Orleans take QBs before the Bills pick. If they have a preference they may want to trade up.
