Section 1: The Controversy

1. Who will have the best start to their career: Travon Walker, Kayvon Thibodeaux or Aiden Hutchenson

Hutchinson. Walker is a huge bust risk, especially going to Jacksonville where they have a poor front office and culture history. Thibodeaux similarly has some risk/reward offset to consider so I could see him disappointing. Hutchinson should, at the very least, be a quality player in this league for a long time.

2. How many QBs from this draft will be starting on week 1 2024 (Bonus points who are they?)

One - Pickett. Pittsburgh is one of the most stable teams out there and they'll do everything they can to put him in a position to succeed with a great defensive and supporting cast. I don't know if he'll be a star, but I think he'll at least be Derek Carr/Kirk Cousins quality and remain a starter by then.

3. Which WR will have the best start of their career? Williams, Olave, London, or Garrett.

Olave. All four of these guys are going into tough spots with rather poor teams. I don't trust the Lions or Jets, so Williams and Garrett are out for this question. The Falcons have the ultra-conservative Mariota at QB for now, so that leaves Olave on a rebuilding Saints with Jameis at QB. He's the best of a bunch in tough situations here.

4. Stingley vs Sauce who ya got?

Sauce. I can see both being great, but Sauce seems legit.

Section 2: The Best and The Worst

1. Who is the current favorite for OROY this year?

Pickett. Given who his competition is, he should be in the starting job quite early in the season if not at the very start. He has good weapons and a great defense, so I think he could "Mac Jones" his way into consideration for the award.

2. Who is the current favorite for DROY this year?

Give me Kyle Hamilton. He fell because he timed poorly, but his play on the field is clearly that of elite potential safety. He's in a perfect spot in Baltimore, should see plenty of playing time, and they'll put him in position to flash.

3. Who is the highest selected player who will not be starting by opening week 2024?

Walker. At least not for the Jags.

4. Who is the lowest selected player who will be a starter by opening day 2024?

I'm sure there will be some 7th round OL in a starting job, but I have no idea who. Very likely a Day 3 RB as well. Can STers count? I think Araiza and Melton are impact players in ST roles by then.

Section 3: Your Dream Draft

You have pick 16 in each round you can take anyone selected after that does not have to be in the same round who do you got?

Section 4: How did your team do?
