1) The fact you quoted your Fall-Asleep-To Movie is funny to me,

2) C'mon, Mut. You're better than this. "Why wasn't McCarthy unleashed?" Um, well, they won a National Championship. It's not like it was a team that was 5-5 and you wondered if your quarterback could pass the ball or not. They won the whole damn thing with exactly the strategy that Jim Harbaugh wanted to win the whole damn thing with. They never had to sway from what the game plan was. Jim Harbaugh was not going to change the game plan if he didn't need to. He wasn't going to change the game plan just to boost McCarthy's draft stock.

Now, with that said, I am out on McCarthy. I don't think he's the guy. I'd rather take Maye or Daniels or, better yet in my eyes, trade the pick and go back to 5 or 6 and draft Joe Alt. Use that extra capital to keep putting pieces into place. Draft Penix Jr. or Nix late in the first or early second and let them work behind Jacoby for a year.

And I LOVE MHJ. I am an Ohio State fan. I watched how good he truly is this season. I'd love to see the same thing -- draft MHJ and then grab Penix Jr./Nix -- but I almost love the Alt move more. We need more chess pieces. We need more depth. MHJ and Alt are bonafide, can't-even-question-it-if-you-wanted-to stars; I can't say that about Daniels, Maye or McCarthy.

Good weekend, Mut.

Boston Sports Media is addicted to mock drafts. I could make one with AI, share it out to some random twitter account and it will be talked about for a news cycle because they can’t get enough of them. MOCK MOCK MOCK ALL DAY LONG MOCK MOCK MOCK WHILE I SING THIS SONG.
