I have the most confidence in Simpson. I think he does the most and is the most pro ready.

I thought Bernard looked good vs LSU. I had not paid a ton of attention to him prior and was impressed. I think this will be a sneaky WR class at the top.

I like R Mason Thomas. Started looking at him and he has some juice.

Was this like a batted ball back to him - do you get a completion and catch on that?

Had to of been. I tried to find the play, but couldn't.

Had to of been. I tried to find the play, but couldn't.

Fernando Mendoza was credited with 15 passing yards but zero completions as a result of a specific trick play involving a lateral pass in a game against Oregon State in 2024.
Here is how the play unfolded:

1. Mendoza threw a legal forward pass to running back Jaivian Thomas.
2. Thomas caught the pass and ran with the ball.
3. Before being tackled, Thomas lateraled the ball back to Mendoza.
4. Mendoza then ran the remaining distance into the end zone for a touchdown.

In American football statistics:

• A forward pass is considered complete only if the receiver catches the ball and is downed or runs out of bounds, without a subsequent change of possession or a lateral. The initial forward pass to Thomas was a completion for Thomas as a receiver.
• The yardage gained by Thomas before he lateraled the ball counted towards the total yards for the play.
• The subsequent lateral to Mendoza is a running play for Mendoza as a ball carrier, but the initial forward pass is still the source of the yardage.
• The official statistics credited Mendoza with 15 receiving yards and a receiving touchdown but not an official reception, as he was the passer on the original play. The play resulted in 15 "passing yards" on the stat sheet, tied to the overall play, even though none of his forward passes were officially recorded as completed passes in the conventional sense of the QB completion stat.

This unique situation involving a lateral back to the original passer created the unusual statistical anomaly of having passing yards (which are a team stat tied to the play result) but no recorded completions for the quarterback (which is an individual stat for a completed forward pass) on that specific play.

Stroud is just speculation based on his diminishing play. Could they be enticed to go with a stop gap option? Probably not but you have to ask. That franchise does strange things.

Right? They traded D-Hop for a broken David Johnson...

 

[Denny Green Fan]

He would be the homerun pick if available. A legit MVP level QB.

Some speculation the jets will go for burrow… he would pick the jets over us if he had a choice I suspect…. 2 stud offensive tackles.., Wilson and hall….plus a much weaker division and bigger market..$$$$

 

[BooksOrangePlanet]

If he was available the Jets would trade 4-5 firsts for him.

burrows wouldn't go to the jets tho - arizona tho?

 

[DVontel]

burrows wouldn't go to the jets tho - arizona tho?

He wouldn’t go to Arizona either

 

[BooksOrangePlanet]

He wouldn’t go to Arizona either

you're probably right

Cardinals drafting a QB in 2026? It's going to take some work

Unless something changes, the Cardinals and Kyler Murray appear headed for a split, opening the door for Arizona to draft a QB in 2026.

Him & Dante risk going back in a special 2027 class. Idk.

Still struggles a little, but the Leinart lesson says come out.

Sellers does not look like an NFL quarterback to me

Leinart was busting no matter what. Another year would benefit Simpson.

Neither did Burrow or Jayden before transferring. I think he goes to Miami or LSU.
