Raiders: no quarterback after the first day
Las Vegas will begin the 2024 season with Gardner Minshew and Aidan O’Connell at the helm of the offense. The franchise did not seek to recruit a quarterback during the draft, considering that once the first round passed, no prospect brought added value to the squad. For Tom Telesco (GM) the quality wasn’t there.
“On the third day? No. No more on the second day. The first day yes. But not after that,” Telesco told ProFootballTalk.com. “If we had considered that there was a quarterback available who was better than what we have, or who could become better, we would have done something. But that didn’t happen. »
Andy Reid: “Xavier Worthy looks more like DeSean Jackson than Tyreek Hill”
After signing Marquise “Hollywood” Brown (WR), the Chiefs offered Xavier Worthy (WR) during the draft. A position in which the Chiefs had the means to improve, and a newcomer who draws comparisons with one of his illustrious elders. But not necessarily the one you think.
« [Hill et Worthy] are different, and he will make his own place when he has found his feet,” explained Andy Reid (HC) at a press conference. “The comparison was unnecessary, since he is a good player and a good receiver. And we add the turner skill. I’ve trained a few guys like Tyreek and DeSean Jackson – and probably the body type fits DeSean more. »
Quinyon Mitchell refused to leave Toledo for money
For several years now, NCAA players have been able to capitalize on their image and earn dollars by playing on their reputation while remaining students. An exercise that Quinyon Mitchell (CB, Eagles) refused in order to stay on his faculty in Toledo rather than transfer to a more upscale program.
“Money and other opportunities are not more important than human relationships,” Mitchell told NBCSportsPhiladelphia.com. “The relationships I had in Toledo were so strong. That’s why I stayed. I love these guys, I love everyone in the organization. It’s all about relationships. »
Jerod Mayo: “I doubt Tom Brady will come back to play for New England”
Tom Brady (ex-QB) ever more immortal? A few weeks ago he let slip that he could return to the NFL, during the season, if a club lost its quarterback. In particular Las Vegas, and New England… It remains to be seen if a franchise could be interested. Nothing is less sure. Because the Patriots have five pitchers after this draft weekend.
“I love Tom, and the door is always open if he wants to come back here to coach,” Jerod Mayo (HC, Patriots) said on WEEI. “But as for the terrain, I don’t know. But if he comes back, once again, if we apply the idea ‘hey, the best player will play’ we will have to enter the competition. And he loves competition. I doubt he will pass through these doors in the near future. »
