    There are some good gambles in later rounds and Darnold can be a bridge guy, absorbing the shock of hitting the league.

      If Penix goes to 2nd round like these drafts are rating him, I’d grab him. He’s skinny, but so is Jayden Daniels.

        100%. Really fun player with a high ceiling and is a testament to his mental toughness and focus. I wouldn’t want him starting the first year, though. Rookies hopping in are burdened with the league’s expectations and just feel like they’re more likely to risk injury.
