Cris Carter is saying Favre WILL start in this weekend's preseason game. WOW!!!

I'm convinced that Favre could take a dump in a bag, light it on fire in the middle of the locker room and that Brad Childress would be willing to dive on it naked if it would ensure that he would play for the team.

Like I said, Childress and Favre remind me of the class nerd an the class homecoming queen respectively 20 years later at the reunion. The class nerd is thinking OMGWTFBBQ the homecoming queen is TALKING TO ME!!!! The nerd doesn't realize the homecoming queen ain't what she was 20 years ago and wasn't even all that then, just a big fish in a small pond. The homecoming queen is using the nerd to feel like she is still all that even though in reality she hasn't turned many heads in years.

I'm not convinced he'll look as bad as he did in the latter part of the year with the Jets. The Vikes surround him with a much better team than the Jets did.

That's the practical side.

On the character side, I used to have loads of respect for Favre. I lost a significant portion of it when he went through all the histrionics that took him to the Jets. What little I might have had left is pretty much gone now.

Even if he manages to lead the Vikes to a Super Bowl, I still can't bring myself to respect him as I once did. This whole deal has just been too much.

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      By CRA · Posted

      A rookie that has never played a snap and a proven 1000K NFL WR are not going to be viewed the same in these type rankings.  And calling draft picks, lotto picks, isn't some new quip I just invented.  take the big 3 Hubbard, AT, insert whatever 3rd Panther you want vs Kamara, Hill, Olave.  Most football folks outside of Carolina are picking the Saints there IMO.

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      By WUnderhill · Posted

      You didn’t really address the point, just like you ignored the point about the RBs initially, and saying “they are all lotto picks” is just a really silly reduction because you could say that about literally any player rookie or vet every snap, every game, every year. It is well known that different positions have different hit rates, and I would argue different types of prospects within position groups as well, and that hit rates change the further down in the draft you go. Everybody knows QB is different and that, for example, first round OL have a really high success rate. Using your lotto ticket analogy…again…you are saying a lotto ticket with a 1 in 100 chance of hitting is the exact same thing as a lotto ticket with a 1 in 2 chance of hitting (this is an example, don’t take these odds literally). The point was he is no more of a lotto ticket than the 31yr old receiver coming off a major knee injury, and in my opinion he is better odds with a higher potential “jackpot”. Saying one player is an “lotto ticket” while another isn’t is just not sound logic. You have no idea who will break out, regress, get injured, etc. There are safer bets than others, that’s all. I don’t think Diggs is a safe bet and even if he was, weighing him over all of the Panthers WRs plus 2 1k rushers is just dumb. You can disagree if you want. The list is stupid.

      Yeah, this is all projections of how it will turn out. Inevitability this list will look ridiculous in a full 2025 sesson hindsight, most likely. Still, I am pretty surprised that so many bristled at being thought of as having very, very lowly ranked WR and TE units. We literally have been for years. All you have to do is just have things stay the same and those are immediately bottom 5 units. It is easy to see why one would be reticent to have lofty expectations in the preseason. Gotta show it first when you are a perennial cellar dweller. That's just life at the bottom.
