Welcome to tropical Draftopia, where the relationships we bond are always correct and there is no brain washing 👀

DRAFT AARON DIAZ IN ROUND 1

DRAFT AARON DIAZ IN ROUND 1

DRAFT AARON DIAZ IN ROUND 1

DRAFT AARON DIAZ IN ROUND 1

Sorry not sure what that was about, we'll continue with today's relationship enhancement period - Quarterbacks.

 

HIRAM MARONDE, UCLA

Hiram had a prolific college career, and his draft rise and fall and rise and fall has been well-documented. Unfortunately for him, this draft has a lot more scramblers relative to the rest of the archetypes of QBs, which may hurt his value a little bit. 

Teams that should be interested: New York Giants, Atlanta Falcons, New York Jets

Ideal fit: Detroit Lions (#12) or Houston Texans (#7)

The Texans need to be all in on surrounding Ryan Johnson with talent, and they can still draft their own QB to fit Johnson's prime. Maronde has the skills to do it, he just needs a patient coach - which brings in jacobs. The person who knows him best is his UCLA background, and seemingly the missing piece from the Lions shot at the NFCN throne is QB. 

 

ANDREW SOLANO, TCU

Solano dominated the Big 12 for years, but had a healthy supporting cast that included a trio of NFL caliber WRs.

Teams that should be interested: San Francisco 49ers, Indianapolis Colts

Ideal fit: New Orleans Saints

The Saints let Cade Alves test free agency, and could always return to him with a contract offer since the poor fool received no interest during early free agency, but he's clearly not the answer in terms of elevating the Saints. New Orleans took his TCU WR Anthony Danks during last year's 6th round, helping to build a scheme that would help Solano thrive in the pros.

 

XAVIER MEANS, TEXAS TECH

An under-the-radar talent overshadowed by his Big 12 conference mates, Means displayed tenacity and the ability to command without elite support while at Texas Tech. 

Teams that should be interested: New York Jets, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Pittsburgh Steelers

Ideal fit: Houston Texans or Philadelphia Eagles

Means could slot into the Texans immediately and grow while limiting throws, simply handing the ball of and displaying his 4.31 40-time in a run-first-and-often (as God intended) offense. He wouldn't have to be an early pick, but could star in the mold of Kemoko Allard, a mid-rounder from 2023 who earned the starting nod in Seattle. However, even with the Eagles committing to Aaron Pool long-term, they should be looking for his successor, as there's little faith from this show's host in Corey Johnson (or Josh Pennel) leading the Eagles in the event of Pool getting hurt again or falling off. Means could be a superb understudy, and a worthy long-term investment.

LANCE ENRIGHT, WISCONSIN

Hiram had a prolific college career, and his draft rise and fall and rise and fall has been well-documented. Unfortunately for him, this draft has a lot more scramblers relative to the rest of the archetypes of QBs, which may hurt his value a little bit. 

Teams that should be interested: Las Vegas Raiders, Dallas Cowboys, Baltimore Ravens

Ideal fit: Tennessee Titans

I want to shy away from pairing the college-pro connection as often as possible, although I do think there's certain affinity between pro front offices and their college counterparts. However, kwheele's only Wisconsin QB to date has been Enright, and while they have Raiders-castoff David Paul and Broncos-castoff Phil Gray as backups, with their move up to #1 being presumably for a WR, it's also the perfect time to pair a signal caller of the future with a young WR.

BLAKE SMITH, NORTH TEXAS

Relatively low profile given his stats (4800 yards in 2023), but perhaps underrated based on his CFB conference, Blake Smith is gunning for the pros.

Teams that should be interested: Seattle Seahawks, Arizona Cardinals, Detroit Lions, San Francisco 49ers

Ideal fit: Indianapolis Colts or Jacksonville Jaguars

With seemingly 3/4 of the AFCS hitting the reset button on QBs this season, it should come as no surprise that multiple of them should be interested in one of the draft's biggest risers. Washington might not believe in him, but they've shown no loyalty to any QB thus far, even with multiple vets taking them far in the NFC to date, so their opinion on QBs is irrelevant. The Colts traded Rashaan Lyons, the biggest draft bust thus far, to New England for Gary Freitag, but he's ancient any only signed through 2025. Klemm can regain his own identity with less of an investment in terms of draft position, while still utilizing his TE who should be the signature of the Indy passing game. Jacksonville, meanwhile, took the flyer on Matt Howard in 2022, but Steven Connolly has lost his luster and Howard hasn't recaptured his collegiate luster. When you have 2 QBs, you have none, as the old saying goes, but what about when you have 3 QBs.

#2) did you just copy past Hiram’s college section in Lances?

I'm not sure what happened there because he had his own write up, but it makes his "bland" draft status more hilarious that he "didn't even get a write up" 😄
