  1. I, of course, strongly disagree. For example when Carolina used pick 1.8 in 2017 on McCaffrey. they passed on QB Mahomes 1.10 CB Lattimore 1.11 LB Reddick 1.13 CB Humphrey 1.16 DE Allen 1.17 OLB Watt 1.30 OT Ramczyk 1.32 Any one of the above players along with one of the following RB's would have been much better use of resources then just McCaffrey. Cook went 2.41 Mixon went 2.48 Kamara went 3.67 Jones went 5.182 Eckler was a UDFA I just don't think the drop off from McCaffrey to one of the above Running Backs comes close to making up for missing out on one the players in the first list. The Running Back Paradox Why Running Backs Don't Matter
  2. Any GM that drafts any RB in the first round 1.1 through 1.32 absolutely must be fired immediately. No exceptions. I don't care if you think you're drafting Barry Sanders etc. no RB is ever remotely close to being worthy of a first round pick. A select few might be worthy of a second round pick but that is questionable.
  3. Well as long as Velus isn't taking the snaps this is over.
  4. can't wait to see Dennis Green in the post game interview..
  5. "They are who we thought they were"
  6. Well, at least the punter looks good.
  7. Well at least Carolina is doing their part to make this years pick 2.1
  8. Seeing the replay it looked like if not for the pass interference he would have hit him in stride for a TD.
  9. Oh great, now we are going to get two pages of whining about how he is transphobic because he just assumed their genders.
  10. In fairness, WNBA teams don't need to do much scouting.
  11. But ... but twelve stupid people found him not guilty.
  12. Yeah, I didn't think you meant anything high. But by no trade value, I meant zero, even late ones in this draft. Any of those teams could just use that late pick on a guy and get four cheap years instead of the one he has left. Hell they could probably just go UDFA.
  13. I don't think Herbert has any trade value. I'm squarely in the draft RB's late, Pay them crap. Say goodbye after the fourth year. Braxton is more valuable to the Bears as a swing tackle for the next two years than a 5th rounder in this years draft.
  14. I think more than likely the team that beats them will have athletic guards that can defend Purdue's 3 point shot meanwhile simultaneously shooting well from 3. Basically trading Edey's twos for their own threes.
  15. Hey .... Rittenhouse hit his targets .... 3-3 100%
  16. Yeah, but you just don't understand. It's not just an RBI ... It's a game winning RBI.
  17. Quote from the article .... "They’ve got to be winners," Gutekunst said Another quote .... talking about Maye He went 17-10 over two years as a starter at North Carolina so he has a winning record, but it'd be interesting to hear whether or not Wolf -- or any others from the Ron Wolf tree -- would consider him a "winner." Wonder what they would have thought of this guy .... Patrick Mahomes' Red Raiders went 13-19
  18. He has zero trade value.
  19. Give or take they are around 10 Million.
  20. If he wants to play there will most likely be a team for him to start on. He can be signed for the vet minimum of 1.27 million. The offset language in his Denver contract means that the amount a new teams signs him for will be subtracted from the 39 million Denver owes him this season. So there is no reason for a new team to spend more than the minimum on him and he would not get any benefit from it if they did. There are 10 teams with QB needs There are 9 QB's available: 1 in trade, 2 in FA, 6 in draft. That leaves 1 team that would be hard pressed to find a better option then a flyer on Wilson for 1 year at 1.27 Mil.
  21. Not so sure what all the fuss about Stroud is. I mean it was a playoff game and he couldn't even throw for 300 yards
  22. Atlanta just fired Smith per ESPN
  23. So if Texas were to win the NC I believe that would make them the first team to beat all the other participants in the four team playoff era.
  24. Only FSU could make the college football playoff committee look smart.
  25. Kansas is way overrated.
