  1. Chris Weinke had the same issue throwing across his body to the left.
  2. They seem focused on the OL right now--and i do not take Bryce if I cannot protect him. So they could be planning for his arrival. I also get him a solid receiving TE. While everyone is saying, "This is a good year to draft a TE," they are not wrong. But if we do not have pick #39, it is also a draft that should drive the asking prices of TEs down in free agency. A guy I like is Foster Moreau of the Raiders. He is under 26 right now, played a ton of snaps last year, averaged 12.7 yards per catch and had over 400 yards. In this market, he could be picked up for a good free agent contract, in my opinion.
  3. (hidden camera footage) Its lying season and finding the truth is going to be like asking children with crumbs on their faces if they know who took the cookies.
  4. Do not underestimate the importance of a good TE--yes, there may be 5 elite TEs in the league, just like there might be 5 elite QBs in the league. the best TE plays for the 1 team that won a super bowl. Imagine Mahomes without his TE.... Imagine Cam without Olsen.
  5. Various news outlets report that 70% of people who win a lottery or get a big windfall end up broke in a few years, quoting a study by National Endowment for Financial Education (NEFE).Jan 2, 2023
  6. https://www.pff.com/news/draft-2023-nfl-draft-board-big-board 1. QB Bryce Young, Alabama Young measured in at 5-foot-10 1/8, but that's all the height he needed to earn back-to-back overall grades over 91.0 as Alabama's starting quarterback. He plays the position better than anyone else in the class, even if his size makes him the biggest injury risk of the bunch. 4. QB Will Levis, Kentucky Levis' arm stood out among a very talented quarterback group at the scouting combine. The zip he has to the intermediate level of the field paired with his compact release is special. He did as much as he could to alleviate the concerning accuracy we saw on tape. 5. QB C.J. Stroud, Ohio State Stroud gave a “don't forget about me” performance in Indianapolis. He was the single most accurate quarterback in attendance and feathered in multiple 60-plus-yard go-balls.
  7. We have 40% former Panthers in the QB scrap heap.
  8. Y'all are crazy if you think Cam Newton has anything left!!! He is done, kaput! What a bunch of shallow morons you are!!!
  9. OK here is what you could do--trade up to #3. If your top 2 QBs are gone (Young, Stroud, for example) that means you have the access to the best non-QBs in the draft--Jalen Carter and Will Anderson to trade out. After that, imo, there is a drop off. Trade out of #3 back to #6 or so, for example. a team wanting one of the remaining QBs or Carter/Anderson will be all in. It is risky, but so is moving up for Richardson or Levis. But the thing is to get to #3 now, and then move around if needed.
  10. If my board has three QBs we would be willing to trade up for, then ok. I do not see us trading up on draft day- Why, you ask? All of the QB needy teams will have already moved up--they ain't trading out. If Baltimore gets two firsts for Jackson, then expect them to be in the market with the draft capital to move up to #1 if they want. I think it would be smart to work out a deal sooner than later, but not if you don't love 3 QBs--Me? I only love 2 and like 2.
  11. I don't get it--these teams compete against one another, and if a player were there that could help them compete, you go get him. Are you telling me that Bill Belichick in NE would not pounce on this if he saw the opportunity and value? I think you hear his demands and you notice that his own team put him out there, knowing that it would drive his price down, or knowing they can live without him. I would be very hesitant.
  12. I have said that I do not think they are evaluating QBs the right way--not that I knew how to do it, but I even considered having them play a video game that realistically simulates defenses. The QB testee would have to make pre-snap adjustments and reads, checkdowns, etc. I would love to see how these guys did it--gonna read
  13. I agree-- I would rate them: 1. Young 2. Stroud 3. Richardson 4. Levis But I see Richardson as a player who could top some team's boards..same for Stroud.
  14. Seriously, I think they need a cap that breaks down limits to players, not just rosters. For example, a team can have the following: (This is just an example--no research--but it seems the increase in cap is going to the QB, and it is not being realized as much by the rest of the roster.) I am guessing the Player's union could get behind something like this that benefits a majority of the players. Have not done the math--but a roster cap? 2 A players who each make 10% of the cap. (about $22.5m each) 6 B players who each make 5% of the cap. (about $11m each) 10 C players who each make 4% of the cap. (about $9m each) 12 D players who each make 3% of the cap. (about $6.8m) 25 E players and who each make 1% of the cap on average. (range $1m to $2m each) This increases the active roster to 55 players and allows for $$ for practice squads. Complex contracts would need a formula to pay bonuses, etc. but this would simplify contracts and get everyone on a more equal scale--so that teams cannot manipulate the salary cap. I call it the NFL MHS is a jeanyus CAP.
  15. About the collusion argument. It is difficult to prove, but it is also difficult to organize. If you were at the store and you saw a banana that was in its prime, save a few bruises, but nothing major. You love bananas, and you are out of bananas. There are green bananas behind this banana, and some old bananas marked half price. You look around, and you see shopping carts with older bananas in them; you see shopping carts with green bananas in them. However, there are carts without bananas being pushed by people who need a banana. Why are they not getting the banana in its prime? If they don't buy the banana in its prime, it will drive the price down. If they buy it, the price goes up, and everyone who was trying to drive the price down gets mad at the person who buys the banana in its prime. Since the banana is still on the shelf at full market price, it could be that the green bananas are better for the future and the older bananas are a better value. Or it could be that the customers in the store colluded to drive the price of prime bananas down.
  16. You can't help but wonder where Lamar Jax would be right now with an agent. Did he screw himself here? I think he did, but details will be available soon.
  17. Ok --and do not get me wrong--I see this point very clearly and agree--but I wonder if the rules that they have in place to protect the QB make a smaller player more likely to succeed? I realize that they all take contact, but you can't hit the QB hardly at all, you can't even land on him while tackling him. Just wondering if today's rules could allow for a more frail qb to play effectively>
  18. I am not a big fan of Shaq. He makes plays in spurts, but I do not see him as a Ray Lewis-type hole plugger. With Luvu coming on, I think we can find a rookie to go with Littleton (if he is still on the roster-he was not bad in limited play) I am guessing Shaq will be extended for 2 years.
  19. To me, there is no shame being a backup in the NFL. He is so young, it could allow him to develop and he could be starting somewhere at age 27 or so. His issue is mental--whether that be processing or confidence, I dunno. But you make a great point-he is humble and will work team first.
