I hate it for her but love it for me. Jerry already has the big tent, he just needs a clown to draw in the crowd for the show. 

It's kind of like the old Faces of Death movies. You know it's going to be bad. But there's just something about it that makes you sit down and watch it just to see how awful it's going to be.

And I will be laughing every minute of it.

Deion in Dallas would be amazingly entertaining especially if the sell out to trade up for Shedeur and then draft Shiloh on the 2nd. Let's just go full bore nepotism and watch it all play out. LOL!

mcshay just did a great podcast of how that would play out.  Dieon would just tell teams he aint playing for anyone else so a team would either draft shedeur and hold him for ransom or they would have to trade up.  Not sure what a viable option would be for Dak as he literally just signed a huge deal

I think the NFL would do everything in their power to try and convince Jerry not to hire Deion for this exact reason.

If you have a QB prospect that many think should be drafted in the Top 3, tell teams he will refuse to play for them if they draft him, because his dad was just named HC of a team drafting #12 and they strong-arm teams into not drafting him so he falls to his dad's team, it's going to create an ugly situation for the league to deal with.

Yes, I realize it would be a pretty unique and one off situation, but if/when it works, what would stop players from starting to do the same and refuse to meet with and/or play for teams they just don't want to play for?

Especially with NIL these days and many of the top QB's coming into the league already as millionaires, it will give them even more ability to say they are willing to sit out a year to re-enter the draft than play for a team they don't want to go to.  All it takes is for it to work one time, and then the next player to try it will make teams too afraid to draft them and risk losing out on their 1st draft pick for the year.

Who knows, rumors are rarely valid….

Ben Johnson may be favoring LVR because he could start from scratch (and bring Hooker with him who knows his offense) Wild idea, doubt it’s credible though but never know.

I had a crush on Hooker.  Rather than ‘go get your guy’, I was content to take Hooker in the late first or early second.  Interesting that Johnson wants to bring him to LVR.  He must see something in Hooker.  Time will tell if he is starter material or just a placeholder who knows the offense until someone better can be brought in.

If the Raiders hire Johnson and add Hooker, I can say goodbye to my dream of us drafting T-Mac.

The Raiders really could go in any direction with their pick as they need so many things, but if they bring in an offensive guy like Johnson and then trade for an unproven QB, they need to help set him up to succeed in year 1.  

Yea, an OT could help there too, but if they do that, with their WR room being so weak, giving Hooker two weapons like T-Mac and Bowers would be great combo for a young QB to have at his disposal that I can't see them passing on him if he's there.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      By Paa Langfart · Posted

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      2026 Charlotte Hornets

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      By Swaggasaurus · Posted

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
