Pick a FG kicker in the first round. Sebastiian Janikowski was the only one drafted in the first round. He was good. 100% hit rate.
T.O. said freshman Tua reminded him of Steve Young

Whats really funny is I almost wrote except Kickers and punters(because I havent researched those) and just told myself: "Nah! no one's gonna bring that up...".
What holes would you like us to fill in the first round?

Exactly!!! By that logic we should just trade away all our top picks

How about drafting BPA or at least one of the BPA regardless of position and especially when’s it a position of NEED!

Yep, and I believe this same success rate, percentage, will be pretty much the same for every position, or at least close.

Which QB was better:
Passes: 404, 65.3% completion, 2,688 yards, 13 TDs, 5 INTs, 3 rushing TDs. Had better receivers.
Passes: 404, 64.1% completion, 2,521 yards, 15 TDs, 9 INTs, 5 rushing TDs. Worse receivers.
The first is Burrow, the second is Tua prorated to 404 passes. I don't see much difference. Everyone seems stuck in the world of "Tua v. Herbert" as opposed to "Tua as a rookie QB". Tua was fine as a rookie.......that doesn't change just because Herbert was excellent.

Not sure how 11 TDs and 5 INTs prorates to 15 TDs and 9 INTs...? How did you come up with those figures?
Tua's TD/INT over 404 pass attempts is 15/7 and Herbert's is 21/7...

404 attempts / 290 attempts = 1.3931
1.3931 x 11 touchdowns = 15.32 touchdowns
1.3931 x 5 interceptions = 6.97 interceptions
I think there may have been a typo in his calculations.
I went with TD% and INT% and updated my post... Pretty much in line with your math.
To be fair, it was probably a typo mistake as Tua having a better ratio actually helped his argument...
Tua definitely looked better than Young did, his first 2 years. It goes to show you that great QB's don't always flash their first year, especially on bad offensive teams.
Exactly. Whats this dudes plan if not receiver? He wants to add a receiver in the 2nd but what position in the first with 2 picks? Guarantee the bust rate is damn close.
