Dane Brugler's March 4th 2025 1st Round Mock

[SAGA45]

After Senior Bowl week, every time I see Conerly's name, this comes to mind:

This has got to be the most God-****ing-awful way to evaluate a prospect I've ever seen in my life. "He sucks because for one play he was put at RT (not his regular position), didn't set his feet well, and got smashed by another top-15 player." It borders on the most ridiculous thing I've seen on this board this draft season and it's come from a litany of posters (not just you Saga) that should absolutely know that in those Senior Bowl drills and drills anywhere, these guys get beat regularly because its not a true simulation of game action and forces OL to react to irregular angles.

Relax. I know it's just one rep and not indicative of his body of work. I've been doing this about as long as you have (just not on CP from the beginning). It's just that when his name pops up, that rep is what immediately comes to mind. Nothing more. Nothing less.

I'm relaxed. I have just seen it a lot around here, and it's kind of ... I don't know... nauseating, lol. I'm glad to read that you get it.

Guys have bad reps. I guess watching Thuney and Caliendo get carried into Mahomes' lap play after play has given everyone some PTSD.

I'll be honest, I was one of the posters who looked at that rep and thought "yikes" without really taking into account it being at RT, or a drill without huge relevance.

I think what bothered me was that it was a bad rep against power, which to me felt like his obvious weakness from the little I've seen. So it was a bit of confirmation bias. But I'll accept I've seen far less of him than you. Plus, tbh, I'd much rather a nimble OT with a year to build his strength, than another project with iffy feet and hands.

If he fell to us without having to move up, even if a guy like Harmon is left before a drop off at DT (man, I really want a quality DT), yeah, I'm probably running it in.
