I don't understand how people view Milroe and Dart better than him. Those guys have lower floors than Anthony Richardson. 

Milroe has the tools but was all over the place play wise. Dart has the upside and hype going back to HS and USC, but nothing that really sets him apart. 

And transferring to Ole Miss really masked where he is developmentally. Prospective NFL offensive talent should start avoiding that program. We’ve experienced that (Corral, Mingo, etc)

Lower floors than AR coming out, or lower floors than AR now?  Are you counting that he has proven to be a productive goal line back?  AR as a prospect had just about the lowest floor you can possibly have.  Probably the same as Milroe.  Dart's floor looks a lot closer to backup QB to me, but the issue is that his ceiling doesn't look too far from that either.

It's crazy that teams are drafting scratch off lottery tickets at QB with 1st round picks.

Kiffens system is a damn qb killer.  Teaches incredibly bad habits.  If a team thinks they can coach that out of him then Dart has the size, speed and a great arm to try.

I mean it got Corral drafted by the Panthers and ranked #1 in the class by Simms lol.  That dude had no shot at being a productive NFL QB.

There probably was a fine needle thread line where it could have worked to some level as the kid has talent.  But Rhule and fitt completely ruined him.  He wasnt mentally tough enough to overcome their fugery.  Trade up for the kid, tell everyone you had a first round grade on him, bury him on the depth chart behind Walker, get him killed behind a poo line and thats a wrap.  He never got a legit chance here

What?  Jeanty to the Jags is picking up steam?

In what world does that make sense when they have Etienne and Bigsby already?  If they were picking in the late teens and Jeanty was still there, then sure, maybe you look at it as a great value pick and you trade one or both of those other RBs.

But taking one at #5 when you have two quality RBs already just seems like a HORRIBLE decision

No one knows who the jags or jets are going to pick. Each have been link to about 10 different players and need each one of them.

Lower floors than AR as a prospect. 

Now AR's floor is closer to JaMarcus Russell than it is Allen/Newton, IMO.

I don't think they ruined him. He wasn't an NFL player. He never was.

Won’t happen and isn’t worth considering.  They are posturing for a trade down obviously.

      Schedule Release: Leaks and Rumors

      generally speaking, going by the original NFL international marketing rights announcement... we would expect to host a Germany home game once every four years.  Doesn't mean we would play internationally only then, just the guarantee home game situation things might have changed since then, if they figure out how to play at more stadiums during a season to expand the number of "home" teams available

      Schedule Release: Leaks and Rumors

      Munich won't happen. It's a Lions home game in Munich, but we play the Lions at home at BOA Most likely to happen would be Madrid vs the Falcons (although KC has been pushing hard for this one). From a schedule perspective, it would be interesting to have an early November Madrid game (then the bye week), then close out the season at BOA for the 2nd game vs the falcons.  In other words, put the two division games in the 2nd half of the season Paris vs the Saints has long been rumored to be the Browns (but... never say never) We wouldn't play Munich, Melbourne, Mexico City, London, or Rio based on who those announced home teams happen to be

      Moton's knees were an issue before last season. He will be 32 before the season starts and gets 14.2M in '26 and 21.5M for '27 (not guaranteed). LT Icky and Rasheed Walker are signed through '26 and Freeling through '30 (option); LG Lewis signed through '28, C Fortner through '26 and Hecht through '29; RG Hunt through '28, RG Moton through '27.  They did a good job shoring up that oline.  We can have a starting oline of: LT Freeiling, LG Lewis, C Hecht, RG Hunt, and RT Moton pretty much locked up through the '27 season (will just take a Moton option to do). That's good because we need to be ready to pull the trigger with next year's QB class.
