Jaxson Dart: I've tried to model my game after Jalen Hurts.

This just isn’t something you can plan for though. For one, you’d be relying on a certain level of performance to justify the selection as well as to satisfy the scouting aspect of his abilities, but you’d also be having to plan on having a record that’s within draftable range for the player, a range you don’t know as of right now.

This is something that would have to play out by accident, not with foresight.

Now if this was some “can’t miss” type Peyton Manning going into his senior year thing, or like Trevor Lawrence or Andrew Luck, sure you can somewhat safely plan to lose every game to land the number 1 spot, but even in that case, what if he tears up his knee?

Nuss certainly isn’t that guy and maybe he becomes it, but odds say he probably won’t, so you can’t really plan for it.

Heck, even without Carr I don’t think we have a “First pick in the draft” roster.

I'm not sure. We've never been in a situation where a high ranking coach (in this case OC), with plenty of reputation had their son enter the NFL draft. Doug Nuss has been around the league for a long time and has made many connections throughout the league. I agree there are a ton of variables and we'll watch many of them play out. But its also entirely possible that other coaches are afraid of drafting a QB who really wanted to go play for his Dad and may carry a resentment, not to mention practically spitting in the face of a well-respected colleague. Those are two variables that also have to be included.

Sure theres a ton of variables, and even some luck factors. I'm just really, really curious to see how it plays out. I'm extremely curious to see the leagues reaction to it. Say we pick 17 and Raiders pick 8th. Does it seem like Pete Carrol and Tom Brady throw a bone to Moore and Doug Nuss or does it seem more like a complete cut throat Fork* off mentality?
