Brady Quinn was a far better QB.At this point I'm wondering if Sanders is even on anyone's draft board. And I thought Brady Quinn dropped in the draft.
Always the USFL or arena football!At this point I'm wondering if Sanders is even on anyone's draft board. And I thought Brady Quinn dropped in the draft.
Nah. Send him to Japan. Can't fail there and he'll be a superstar.Always the USFL or arena football!
He'll make practice squad somewhere.Nah. He'll try the supplemental draft.
some here thought he would be a first rd pickJalen Milroe went before Sanders!?!
Watched him play a ton at Oregon. Good QB. Excellent feet. Good arm.Dillon Gabriel drafted now. Geez.
"..some here..."some here thought he would be a first rd pick
Dude is bizarre.I don't know who should be more embarrassed. Sanders, or all the draft pundit guys who had him the consensus #2 QB and pretty much sure thing top ten pick.
Shedeur is better than Jaxson Dart, IMO.Is Sanders the biggest slide ever? Many had him in the Top 5-10 overall, now looking like it continues to the 4th round. And some here boasted about the talent at CU and how ND should be exercising the same tactics (looking at you Chase nut sack). Now same nut sack is pivoting about talent disparity among other teams while ND competed for a natty. He can wipe his tears and ass (sure he shit himself when almighty Sanders slipped) with the jersey hanging from the rafters after a 13-12 record.
Not a starting NFL QB. Very good college qb. Very small, not a very strong arm at all, he's going to get hurt if he is ever a starterWatched him play a ton at Oregon. Good QB. Excellent feet. Good arm.
I thought for sure he would go second rdWatts is a Falcon
👍👍👍I don't know who should be more embarrassed. Sanders, or all the draft pundit guys who had him the consensus #2 QB and pretty much sure thing top ten pick.
I heard his combine/testing was pretty average and it hurt his profile as a prospect considerably. I think ND players are not being respected outside of O-line & TE maybe because SEC & BIG10 numbers/performance/film is a little safer? Who knows. If he was a 1st team AA playing in the SEC he wouldn't have made it out of the 1st round probably. Xavier Watts has been a total monster production wise (rarely gets taken out of the game and rarely gets burned and has been a ball hawk back there shutting down the opponents vertical passing game) since taking over at Safety full time at Notre Dame5 safeties taken ahead of Watts. Bit surprised there. He's durable, experienced, made plays. Tested well. No character concerns.
Sanders by far. Can't even compare. Draft talk guys did their job: get people talking.I don't know who should be more embarrassed. Sanders, or all the draft pundit guys who had him the consensus #2 QB and pretty much sure thing top ten pick.
Yeah because being at ND hurt Kyle Hamilton in the draft. Nice try. Try againI heard his combine/testing was pretty average and it hurt his profile as a prospect considerably.

Obviously his measurable a were not what teams wanted but it's called Football and it requires football players.. Watts is a football player and a ball hawk. Falcons got a steal of a pick. Wish the Bills drafted him.I heard his combine/testing was pretty average and it hurt his profile as a prospect considerably.

Kyle Hamilton had A+ size, A+ film, and was a top percentile athlete based on his combine results (although his 40 was disappointing).Yeah because being at ND hurt Kyle Hamilton in the draft. Nice try. Try again
Well i certainly hope he doesn't use the same wipe for both.Is Sanders the biggest slide ever? Many had him in the Top 5-10 overall, now looking like it continues to the 4th round.

Yeah. So him being in the SEC wasn't going to change Watts measurables. You're obsessed with the sec and putting down notre dame in any way possible. You're an embarrassmentKyle Hamilton had A+ size, A+ film, and was a top percentile athlete based on his combine results (although his 40 was disappointing)
And all of these guys were drafted before the ACCenshitification of NDs schedule. I'm talking about present ND. Based on the results of the first couple of rounds, the SEC & BIG10 are being respected by NFL front offices far more than any other conference. This probably means they trust the film/evals/numbers/performance to translate well to the highest level maybe more so than some of the other conferences. They probably aren't penalizing guys as harshly for suspect combine numbers in those conferences as well. It could also just be a reflection of the SEC & BIG10 monopolizing most of the elite blue chip talent out of HS in recent years.Yeah. So him being in the SEC wasn't going to change Watts measurables.
Mike Floyd Harrison Smith Will Fuller also went 1st rd.
I thought and think Dart will be the best QB from this class.Shedeur is better than Jaxson Dart, IMO.
What happened? No idea.
Gotta be baggage.

Why are you dismissing the genesis of the point im making and straw manning my argument to bicker over the exact dates ND partially joined the ACC?Wrong
Will Fuller and Kyle Hamilton both played when ND was playing 5 games a year vs the acc. So another incorrect statement. Try again.
Also does that affect where Clemson players have been drafted? Lawrence Etienne Wiggins Williams Watson Watkins Hopkins Spiller. They play a full acc schedule. All skill positions 1st rounders and not including their non skill position players
So what's your excuse this time around 🤣
Because your comment was wrong and anti ND and ACC like usual when it is just a stupid argument. If you're really good, you will get drafted in the 1st rd. Like Will Fuller and Kyle HamiltonWhy are you dismissing the genesis of the point im making and straw manning my argument to bicker over the exact dates ND partially joined the ACC?
I originally made the point that NFL front offices seem to respect the level of competition in the BIG10 and SEC more than the other conferences these days which is why they drafted 26 of the first 32 picks out of that conference this season (a trend im sure has gone up over the last several years)
I also made the point that if Xavier Watts was in one of those more respected conferences, NFL front offices probably would have been more inclined to deemphasize the combine results and put more weight on the stats and film. But since he plays a lot of shit teams in the ACC/on NDs schedule, he was probably punished more harshly for lack of measurables/testing in the combine.
I also made the point that outside of OL & TE NFL front offices are probably evaluating ND players production more harshly as a result of their soft schedule (buoyed by their partial ACC membership).
I don't remember how good the ACC was back in 2013-2015 when Will Fuller played but I was more speaking to modern/present /last 5 years where the ACC has fallen off a cliff in terms of its reputation and level of competitiveness.
