  1. A side effect of this signing is me seeing that the rest of MLB fans seem to think that Wrigley is still this HR hitter's paradise that it was like 20 years ago, meanwhile it's park factor is pretty much neutral over the last almost 10 years.
  2. I mean they did have a world series rotation just 7 years ago and this one is certainly not better, so......
  3. One move doesn't change anything. Now if it's a prelude to like Bellinger, Brasier and Hoskins then kudos to Jed.
  4. If Jed was indeed waiting out the market, I'll say a shorter than average deal on a bit higher AAV. like 4/90-95
  5. Cabrera has tremendous stuff and upside, more so than any non Horton pitcher in the Cub organization.
  6. I'm honestly not 100% sure I want him, but I do trust Carter Hwwkins who churned out tons of pitchers in Cleveland. So if they land him I'll try to be optimistic.
  7. Skenes and Painter #1 and #2?
  8. If he can be even average against lefties, he's good enough against righties to be a solid starter. He's just so incredibly bad against lefties.
  9. I'm so torn on center. Sedrick Van Pran stands a a pretty good chance at being there in the 3rd, but the guy you really want is Jackson Powers-Johnson. His blocking and passing grades are incredibly high, but if you want him you're going to have to probably take him in the middle of the 2nd. I'm not sure how comfortable I am going that early on a center.
  10. If the Chargers don't take Bowers, he's probably not going top 10. At this point I feel pretty safe in saying the top 10 locks are Williams Maye MHJ Alt Fashanu Daniels Nabers The rest could be filled in with combination of Odunze, Bowers, Penix, Verse, Turner, etc.
  11. Honestly even if Odunze or Nabers aren't there it's not the end of the world for WRs. There's a a decent chance that someone as talented as Brian Thomas Jr. slides to the early 2nd. They'd just have to find a way to get a pick in upper part of the 2nd round.
  12. Starting to see Penix to ATL at #8 in a lot of drafts. Pretty crazy how much helium he has after that CFP semifinal.
  13. Rivera is gone.
  14. For me the gap between MHJ and Nabers is smaller than the gap between Nabers and Odunze, which is not to say at all that Odunze is bad. In most draft classes he's your top WR, but MHJ is a legit generational WR prospect and Nabers is a once every 3,4 or 5 years type of guy. Odunze still has legit #1 WR upside and would be a fantastic, and my preferred, get at #9.
  15. Ron Rivera feels like almost a guarantee. I'd think Art Smith would be too, but Atlanta's owner seem to love him for whatever reason. I wonder if Jacksonville's epic collapse cost Doug Pederson his job?
  16. More or less the same reasons ATl would. They both have QBs who are just straight bad. Fields even in his current form is an upgrade over them and if they feel they can capture even of a portion of his upside, it's a significant upgrade for them. It's also the rumored going price for Fields a 2nd or 3rd.
  17. I'm indifferent between Williams and Maye, so I'd like to see them trade 1.1 to WSH and get 1.2 along with the 2nd the Bears originally gave up for Sweat(#40). Then Move Fields to Pittsburgh for a 2nd(#54) as well and hopefully go something like this. 1.2) Drake Maye 1.9) Rome Odunze (Malik Nabers is probably long gone and while Dallas Turner/Laiatu Latu/Jared Verse all make sense, the offensive talent is better than the defensive in this draft and the Bears desperately need a WR to pair with Moore) 2.40) Whichever of Kamren Kinchens/Tyler Nubin is available 2.54) Sedrick Van Pran (Maybe a bit early, but all the making of a dominant NFL Center)
  18. I wouldn't be mad about Harbaugh, but he doesn't really do anything for me.
  19. I'm not sure if you're just being delusional or attention seeking anymore.
  20. No one cares that you don't like a player. Lots of people have been doubting Fields and that's fine. People care because you go so ridiculously over the top hyper critical that it's a borderline parody. That's why you, and only you, get targeted like this. It's troll behavior, which you demonstrated once again, by adding that Matt Mervis comment just to try and irritate people.
  21. Yeah, I can't imagine why they would do that?
  22. So that locks up the #9 pick?
  23. I'm not sure that's true.
  24. The defense pisses down its leg one last time. horsefeathers Eberflus.
  25. Wide open again. Eberflus should be gone the moment the final whistle blows.
