  1. Yeah, and there have been a lot of cases where guys who check every measurable box not working out too. There's no science or foolproof methods to this draft stuff. The consistently good teams figure it out and draft more good players than busts. We suck in large part because we've been drafting terribly for years and we've been drafting terribly ever since we got obsessed with RAS.
  2. Its just absolutely baffling. I have longed for a legit sideline to sideline over the top true FS for decades and we keep rolling out safeties that play like they need to be wearing a fuging neck roll.
  3. If you don't want to compromise with an edge rusher you better be drafting top 3. You don't find Julius Peppers ideal prototypes at #8. It's why I lamented winning those games at the end of the year. Now we pay the cost.
  4. Why do we keep signing/drafting undersized LBs at safety and then act baffled when they suck in coverage?
  5. When I watch Walker, I see a guy flying all over the field making a significant impact. That's what I want out of a top 10 pick.
  6. Miller was a little taller and a little longer but people make way too much about an inch or two on these measurements. Parsons is a couple inches taller but his arms are actually shorter than Walker's. Walker:
  7. Yeah, I'm not trying to say he's a slam dunk and I'm not sure if he's who is pick but of all the guys that there's smoke about us liking, he's definitely the one I'd pick out of that group.
  8. That's exactly why the Cardinals squandered the early years of Haason Reddick's career after drafting him #13 overall. He didn't measure as an EDGE so they tried to make him an off the ball LB and he was just okay until they finally just said, ya know what... why don't we just let this guy get after the QB? Then he started playing like a guy who would've been drafted #13 overall.
  9. I like Walker. Not sure if he'll ultimately be an edge or off the ball LB who is a great blitzer but either way I think he's a player. Draft him to play EDGE with the backup plan of putting him off the ball.
  10. Just saw the clip of Maryland's buzzer beater. Let's just say that they're traveling to the Sweet 16. LOL
  11. I expected this to be a leaked sex tape. LOL
  12. Works for me. If that workout warrior Stewart went #9 in that scenario that would be a HUGE sigh of relief.
  13. All I seen reported is a "mystery team" AKA probably his agent trying to convince the Panthers' front office that there's TOTALLY another team trying to sign his client.
  14. Something like this would be awesome Walker listed as a LB but I'd be drafting him as an EDGE with the backup plan of making him a LB of it didn't work out at EDGE. I wanted a RB in there somewhere late but it just never made sense when I was up. Skattebo went #109 or I would've taken him at #111 and then taken West at #115 instead of Mondon Jr.
  15. Surely veteran minimum, right? This question usually precedes news that we've signed some bum for like 4 or 5 million per year.
  16. The ACC as a whole was just dreadful this year. No way to sugarcoat it. Tourney confirmed it. If duke comes up short they can honestly fairly blame it on the conference schedule being so soft that they went the majority of the season virtually untested.
  17. Well, we got behind big and lost but at least we didn't lay down and quit and made a helluva run at it. Team sports starts for me again with NFL training camp.
  18. Crying by proxy. The real losers of crying. LOL
  19. If I was as low as you I'd go and drag the poo out of your constant crying in the TB.
  20. Not sure how many more Hubert games I'll watch. Watching one of your childhood favorite players absolutely ruin your favorite sports program is just not at all enjoyable.
  21. Thanks for proving my hypothesis correct. LOL
  22. Honestly, I was wrong. I guess the ultimate loser move is just trolling fanbases with no professed rooting interests.
  23. The ultimate loser move. But yeah, that's Wake and State for ya. LOL
  24. Duke actually has something to cheer about. The other two...eh, not so much. LOL
  25. Been like that all year. Every time we've shot well we've followed it with a game like this. That's what I was saying "uh oh" watching us rain against SDSU.
