The first quarterback taken after the Jets pick goes on to be a hall of famer.

u/PitbullsGymSocks is a menace

I like the twist that the Browns actually didn't mess up picks 1 and 4, but messed up far, far worse later on.

"The Jets will draft Baker Mayfield. He’ll become Drew Brees v2.0 and finally lead the Jets to the promised land of another Lombardi trophy.

The Browns will draft Sam Darnold and Saquon Barkley. Sam won’t necessarily live up to number one overall hype, but he and Saquon will make a formidable pairing and turn the Browns into a consistent contender. An AFC title isn’t out of the question, either.

The Giants will draft Bradley Chubb. He’ll make for an effective replacement for JPP.

John Elway will make a questionable decision and draft Josh Allen at #5. Allen will sit for two years under Case Keenum, who leads the Broncos to the playoffs both years, and then starts once Keenum signs a nicer deal with the Pat Shurmur-lead Giants. Allen will bust, badly. Broncos fans call for Elway’s head as Keenum goes and wins a ring or two with the Giants.

The Bills trade up to #6 and take Josh Rosen. His career trajectory pans out similar to Chad Pennington’s, as his fantastic play and bright future are ultimately dragged down by injuries. The Bills get another playoff appearance out of him, but after various shoulder injuries, he retires after just six seasons.

The Cardinals pick Lamar Jackson at #15. He becomes the new-age Michael Vick, and along with David Johnson and a resurgent late-career Larry Fitzgerald, the Cardinals become a consistent contender. Jackson eventually leads them to the promised land as well, and the longest title drought in North American professional sports comes to an end."

Golly. This guy missed so hard.

That thread is gold. Reminds me that we are all completely full of crap.

Most of these are terrible try-hard one liners as is Reddit tradition

[–] TheeVande@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Didn't even partake in the RemindMe bidding war, yet you're the one getting the karma. Congrats!

That top comment about the first QB taken after the jets pick has aged like fine fucking wine so far holy shit.

[–] Robocop52@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I like the Sam Darnold bust comment about eating a spicy pepper and the dude suggests a Carolina Reaper. Sam Darnold's chance to be a starter in the NFL pretty much ended in Carolina so that seems prophetic a bit lol kinda

[–] democratichoax@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

We should do this after the draft. Most of the comments are predicting how the draft will go instead of how players careers will go.

u/technoviking94 well. Did the remind me work?

[–] Oedipustrexeliot@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

u/TechnoViking94 you missed your chance! You even set yourself a reminder to repost in 5 years for easy Karma and everything!

Also appreciate the call of Lamar to the Ravens.

Top comment: Next qb taken after the jets will be a HOFer

The jets picked Sam Darnold. The next qb taken after him was Josh Allen. That aged well
