Rashod Bateman will translate instantly to the NFL as a successful receiver

Rashod Bateman, wide receiver out of Minnesota... He's just a guy that separation as far as route running, catching over the middle stuff. He's going to translate instantly. He's probably going to be a second round guy, maybe a late first, but Rashod Bateman would be my red star guy.

Bateman was a first-round pick but his 'instant translation' was slowed significantly by multiple injuries early in his career.

This is officially the end for Jimmy Garoppolo on the 49ers

This is the end for Jimmy Garoppolo, I think we all can agree. We always joke about the vote of confidence that a coach will get, and that usually means the end... [John Lynch] said he has been a pro... That is such a bare minimum thing to compliment a guy.

The 49ers drafted Trey Lance third overall in 2021 and Garoppolo was eventually phased out and traded.

I will give Chris Simms my spleen if Justin Fields is drafted 32nd overall or lower

I will say, I will give Chris Simms my spleen if [Justin Fields] gets picked 32nd overall or lower. Exactly 32nd or lower. If it's 32nd or lower, Chris, my spleen is yours. It's probably in pretty poor condition.

Justin Fields was drafted 11th overall by the Chicago Bears, well before the 32nd pick.

The Patriots 'smoke' regarding trading up for a quarterback in the first round is for nothing

I feel like when it comes to the draft, there's always smoke. There's always, always, always like, 'this might happen, this might happen,' and then usually nothing crazy that happens. I feel like they're not going to do it.

The Patriots stayed at 15 and drafted Mac Jones without trading up.

Liam Coen is the biggest snake in football for leaving the Buccaneers for the Jaguars

New Jaguar's head coach Liam Coen is the biggest snake in football today... My feelings were hurt when you left... I was a card carrying member. I was a Coenhead.

Whether someone is a 'snake' in this context is entirely subjective.

Desmond Ridder is the most pro-ready quarterback in the 2022 draft and is comparable to Marcus Mariota

A quarterback that can start right away. Kenny Pickett from Pitt? And it's like the most pro ready guy. I kind of like Desmond Ridder, Cincinnati... Cincinnati is like NFL comp is like Marcus Mariota.

Ridder did not start right away (Marcus Mariota actually started over him in Atlanta) and his career has struggled compared to Mariota's peak.
