Supplemental Draft


Boltergeist

Recommended Posts

best player in the sup.draft wasnt even drafted? Jeremiah Masoli. he'd be a hell of a RB. too small to be a QB in the NFL.I think he is 5'11, 190 lbs...about like Pat White

Masoli debated going into the supplemental draft, but decided against it.

forgive my newbishness on the subject.. how does the supplemental draft work?

All teams are available to place bids (rounds 1 through 7) on players in the supplemental (usually guys that end up leaving school with eligibility remaining for whatever reason). Whoever places the highest bid on a player gets that player, but loses the corresponding pick in next year's draft. So the Bears and Cowboys lose their 7th rounders in the 11 draft, for selecting Unga and Brent, since they both placed 7th round bids.

are we talking like sidney rice kind of .. like epic time left sophmores ... 5th 6th year seniors .. or just people who decide after the initial draft that they would rather try the nfl than stay another year?

No most guys usually have some other issue. Unga was kicked out of BYU for honor code violations. I think grades were the issue with Brent, although I think he had some scrapes with the law in Champaign. Jeremy Jarmon (who was picked by the Redskins last year) was facing a suspension for a banned substance.

    • There is a Grand Canyon-sized chasm between your opinion and the opinions of most former player hockey guys who do this for a living.
    • I can only imagine the **** eating grins on the committee right now. "Oh, Bama didn't deserve it? Oh, Miami didn't deserve it? Suck it, haters!" lol
    • To say that, is gaslighting, because it isn’t true. I mean, maybe one or two people do that but it isn’t the predominant behavior. Even Frank has given him credit. I think particularly the Rams game. A couple of glowing posts.   I know I have. Gotta be honest about it because if you aren’t it undermines what else you say.  But the degree of how far I go with credit, in terms of it being a projection of future performance? Not very far. Acknowledge it, but require more of it. There is a lot of bad play to offset.    I tried to remain passive while the last 9 games (post ankle injury) played out. It is just really hard when the lows won’t go away. I failed. As high as a couple of those highs were, there isn’t enough.    I know it is premature to just say I want to move on, made my decision after 6 of those games ended up pretty much really good or not good enough, but I have had enough of being patient and letting him show the reality either way.  So in my view, he Could still validate himself to a decent degree if he smokes the last three starts. But also in my view I don’t expect to see it. Maybe one more high quality start, would be my expectation. So yes he could still somehow justify having the job next year. If that happened I still wouldn’t have much faith given the last three years and all that has transpired. Again, there is a lot of bad play to offset.
