    Someone mentioned the Vikings reaction, the Lions was even more obnoxious. Their GM slapping the table, jumping up because he reached twice for a RB and LB both of whom would still be on the board today?

    Wright help will help to fill a need, was hoping for JSN. I really believe Carter was never a serious consideration by Poles and he managed to get his player at 10 and another pick for 2024. Jayden Reed will be there day 2 or day 3 to give your a little of what JSN would have brought to the table.

    It appears to us the OL is without question priority one, believe it appeared the same way last season. Given what played out I do not believe it lock Poles is going OL at #9, after what he said about DB's and CB's being value or whatever he called it positions. I can't get away from thinking he's going draft whomever is available from Witherspoon, Gonzalez or Porter. Then go heavy OL and DL with next picks.

    30 years of HOF QB play and all the Packers could manage was two SB's this'll be the legacy of Farve and Rodgers. However, I'm certain the Bears, given 30 years of HOF QB play, would have found a way to not win any SB's.

    Don't know what this Cubs is but, I do know every permutation of 2023 playoff contenting Cubs does not have Fulmer being leveraged in high pressure situations. Middle inning, mop up fine, but, when you need a big out or outs not a chance. Is his contract guaranteed? I know it's a one year deal, does he have options or can he be released?

    I don't believe the Bears were going to draft him at 9, I'm convinced Poles is going to take a DB in the first. Prepare for the gigantic Twitter meltdown after he goes DB with his first pick for the second time.

    Thus far, Kings - Warriors has been fun, also like Clippers-Suns. Thinking the Warriors run is done and we'll see a new NBA champion. After beating the Warriors don't know how far the Kings will go, nevertheless, they're fun.

    Seems plausible, regarding the scouting doesn't it occur during the whole of the college football season? Once the draft position becomes fairly clear I have to think NFL teams already have a big board in mind - no?
  9. gflore34
    Believe someone mentioned this before nevertheless, 2+ months after the SB is too damn long to wait for the draft. Why such a long wait, somehow money related?

    I did enjoy watching Zach take over along with Williams turning up the defensive screws.
  11. gflore34
    See the social forum now, thanks.
  12. gflore34
    Was going to ask about this as well, what's the procedure?
  13. gflore34
    The only thing worse than losing last night's game was winning the game. Unfortunately, that's what happened, I just don't see the point of winning tomorrow's game, they've no chance whatsoever against the Bucks. It just a dumb, fruitless exercise, at least, losing last night would have increased their chances at Wemba now, that's out the door.
  14. gflore34
    I agree, hard pass on Carter. However, is there any doubt Poles, if he stays at #9, is going to take Carter or a DB - Gonzales?
  15. gflore34
    Cardinals lost however, I'm a little bit jealous, Jordan Walker only went 1-5 he, nevertheless, looked good. Maybe his minor league success won't translate to the big leagues, but I doubt it, they have Walker from the 2020 draft while the Cubs have Ed Howard. I know Howard' recovering from an injury however, he's light years away, if he makes it at all.
  16. gflore34
    Could be worse. We could be watching Heyward hit GB after GB to 2B instead of Madrigal' soft liners to CF.
  17. gflore34
    Speaking of Dusty was it 2006 he said of Jacque Jones, after dropping a pop-up in Houston, that the ball was too high for him to catch? You know Dusty, always having the backs of "vets".

    I've seen articles suggesting the Packers are holding out for a first rounder. Thought this might be the holdup but, it's likely working out the financial picture that's taking time. The Packers demanding a first rounder is probably fluff because I don't believe any GM is going to trade a first for Rodgers.
  19. gflore34
    Are we certain Rodgers will be moved to the Jets?
  20. gflore34
    Do the 6 DB's include the one numb nuts is going to take at 9? Many think it should be OL or DL or WR or even RB at 9 but, I was thinking what if one of Witherspoon or Gonzalez is available? Some have suggested Poles subscribing to the idea of being stronger on the backside of defense than up front. Given what he's done during FA and last year's first two picks, could be a strong possibility.
  21. gflore34
    As an Illini fan, I’m not sorry to his backside heading out the door. He’s a really, really good offensive coach. I was interested to see if could maintain success after losing all key contributors next season.
  22. gflore34
    I’ll keep popping in to say one *should* be the pick at 9 (Quinten Johnston!) I'd venture to say Fields has probably lobbied for JSN at 9. I say go it, weapons, weapons, weapons, can never have enough, while Fields and a terrible OL contributed to his high sack rate. I'm guessing the lack of weapons also played a part most especially after Mooney and Claypool were out. Who'd give a second thought to defending a WR room headed by Saint-Brown, Pringle and Pettis?

    i'd rather have the entirety of Purdue's season, without a second thought, because this of course includes those 2 accomplishments you listed and banners that are hung forever this thread is having a real atypical hot take fest re Purdue, sometimes stylistic bad matchups occur, that's part of the beauty of March Madness If Painter and Underwood keep getting their teams invited, one of these years, the match up dominoes will fall and they'll get a breakthrough win(s). Look at Izzo last year lost in the second round, the year before in the first four, this year MSU is in the Sweet Sixteen with a legit chance to make the Final Four.
  24. gflore34
    How does Pickett keep getting away with using his left arm to push the defender away?
  25. gflore34
    Yes they did, don't mind Kansas losing, they've got a real shot at the FF now. Eat my words didn't think they much of chance, good for them.
