1st. I believe the Bengals were planning to draft him No. 1.

I thought he would have been#1 as well

Yeah in his book he made it sound like that

No. 1; same position Wilson would have had if ESPN didn't talk about Lawrence for four years

Honestly I’m glad Wilson is at the Jets. At least they’re just an on the field dumpster fire…

Yeah but he'll get a lot more pressure from the NY media than he would in Jville

Jacksonville just seems so toxic right now.

Um, it’s pretty clear why Lawrence went #1. It’s not just ESPN hype

Those are some strong blue goggles there.

If Wilson was the Clemson QB you wouldn’t think so

You’re right, then they would be orange glasses

I thought it was pretty widely known he would have been first, but he went USFL for the bigger potential paycheck.

10/13/21 10:10am

Yes. His deal with the USFL would've paid him $40 million over 43 years.

He was the original Bobby Bonilla.

10/13/21 10:15am

He would have been the top pick. Personal experience on the issue
