We know absolutely nothing about the NFL draft.
The time for post-mortems is around the corner, and you can believe one of the biggest topics over the next few days will center on how the NFL viewed this incoming quarterback class. After all, after seeing five come off the board within the top-fifteen selections a year ago, we waited until selection 137 in this draft class to hear the fifth quarterback come off the board.
Western Kentucky’s Bailey Zappe, to the New England Patriots.
Heads were scratched in the wake of the move. After all, that meant that Zappe came off the board before Sam Howell and Carson Strong, two passers who generated a lot more early-round buzz than Zappe, despite his prodigious numbers last season for Western Kentucky. Compounding matters was the idea that it was the Patriots who drafted him, as New England was one of those teams who drafted a QB early last year in Mac Jones.
So why Zappe, and why New England?
