[Kevin Patra] I could cry

  1. Let’s hope Verse meets his new daddy’s in Johnson and Mailata and these two can nullify Kupp and Nacua

  2. Isn’t Mustapha the guy that Mahomes trucked into the end zone? That was one of the most demoralizing plays I’ve ever seen.

  3. Penn state has been consistently producing special players. They had a few stretches of time where 90% of the players drafted from Penn state were bust or just special team players.

  4. I really think that Primetime game Thursday boosted his odds, if he can kick ass Sunday he should run away with it

  5. I’d love to see Q win it. Although, it would be pretty cool is the voters said “we can’t choose… let’s select Quinyon AND DeJean.”

  6. The 2 players at the very top of my draft board who I thought were realistic targets for the Birds were Mitchell & Verse. I thought very highly of them both. They’re both complete players at their positions. Objectively speaking, I have to assume Verse would be the betting favorite for DROY due to his position. He can affect the play on every single snap and actually record statistics. For Quinyon & corners in general, a good game GENERALLY means they’re rarely even targeted. It’s hard for Mitchell/DeJean to accumulate PBUs or INTs if the ball don’t even get thrown their way lol.

    All things being equal and if our pass defense wasn’t so god awful last year, I’m willing to bet Verse would’ve been the pick round 1 and DeJean in the 2nd. Verse just seems like exactly the type of edge player they covet in the early rounds year in and year out. We were just in such dire need of young talent in the secondary and somehow lucked into both Mitchell & DeJean falling that far. By no means am I disappointed lol. Either Verse or Mitchell would’ve helped this defense immensely but it’s hard to argue against solidifying our secondary for possibly the next decade at 2 prime positions.
