And that is why I said it is a bad pick. Unless the Rams think this guy has a 12-15 yr career as a well above average QB ahead of him, that is not worth sacrificing a player that could possibly help them to reach the Super Bowl this season.
The only, only way the pick makes sense for anyone is if they are convinced Simpson is that QB. There is no other way. Zero.
That is why I asked you the question. There is no logic behind calling the pick a good one & you have no idea what kind of player he is. You are just being contrarian just to be contrarian.

So you think they drafted a QB that they aren't convinced can be a starter? If that were the case they wouldn't have drafted him. This isn't complicated.
Pundits are the ones being contrarian. Why would they do that? Clicks and views that make them money? No, that couldn't be it. In the case of a thread like this? IDK so some "Joe Nobody(s)" can show they're smarter than the professionals that make the picks? Probably.
Thinking McVay's approval wasn't a part of this pick is just plain stupid. I won't waste my time explaining why.
Out of curiosity how much film did you study to make your decision for any of the picks in the draft? I'm guessing hundreds and thousands? If not how can you have a meaningful opinion on any pick? Who did the Rams miss out on based on your film study? Keep in mind if you don't "know" the player you can't have an opinion.
Me? I've heard pundits talk about Simpson from both sides. He's going to be good, he's not going to be good, he'd be good with more starts, etc. etc. etc.
None of them were in a position to study the guy AND make the pick. The guys in position to make the pick know more than you or me. You seem to think that isn't true. Now they can be wrong like you or me, that is true. But the base of knowledge and experience they work from dwarfs anything you have. They are a beach and you are a grain of sand.
