Totally agree. By the end of the season teams had figured him out

Answer to "what to make of…"
Justifies Kirby & Staff, winning the SEC with a group of HS kids facing portal-hoppers, NIL bag-snatchers, and grown-ass men!
Coaching Award Committees were just flat wrong, almost as bizarre as the Ty Simpson draft pick.

They had said all pre-draft they wanted asap help for Stafford to get back to the Super Bowl before his age starts showing and then bam, they select a project choice for a development scheme that will takes years to show fruit. Sounds like something the Falcons would do!

Re: What to make of Georgia football having just one first-round pick in 2026 NFL Draft
Well said sir! Amazing effort from CKS & staff, swimming upstream all year.
But, last season felt like the end of something…
pistol-whipping a rival in the SECCG, then scrapping that offensive game-plan for the next opponent?
uncertain in-game decision-making from a coaching GOAT?
the defense losing its collective mind in the final minutes of a playoff game against a ragtag group of portal players from Ole Miss with a HC in his first game?
Hope my intuition is totally off, but the game is in hostage-mode and needs a Reagan-type badass to blow it up & reset things to normal!

All those high first round draft choices and no title last year. Fire Ryan Day.
Re: What to make of Georgia football having just one first-round pick in 2026 NFL Draft
Ty Simpson looked pretty good vs UGA on 9/27/25. Certainly a reach at 13 but that's what teams do trying to find a QB. No one is mentioning that picking Simpson all but assures that SBIV will be out of a job (w/the Rams) later this year UNLESS inexperienced (15 games started at AL) Simpson can prove capable of being LA's #2 QB.
OSU had 4 players picked in the first 11 draft choices. NIL has certainly changed CFB.
Branch's arrest shouldn't have a big impact on his draft position unless there is more to the story than what has been reported. Branch was never expected to be 1st rd. He will probably still go in the 2nd rd.
Down year for UGA relative to the NFL draft because if the youth on the team. Still counting 10 returning 5* players on the UGA D in '26.
