NFL teams voted today to expand replay review to quarterback pass/fumbles when the ruling on the field is an incomplete pass.

Teams also voted to change the criteria for determining draft order, ensuring playoff teams will not pick before 21st and that teams that lose in the Wild Card round pick before teams that advance.

good.

i just wonder if draft picks acquired through trades are going to be affected. i don't think they will but it will probably be clarified.

So the rule change to the draft is effective for this upcoming draft? Seems to me that would hurt a lot teams in regard to scouting. Maybe not but I would have thought they would have delayed the rule to take effect next year.
it doesn't affect this year. the guy writing the blog post used the chargers as an example of how it would be.

screw it i want a 20 game season, get rid of pre season.

I like the idea of having a 18 game season with 2 preseason games. Some preseason games are needed for the teams to evaluate players and make decisions on who to cut and who to look at closer and it gives players that don't get much playing time to try to impress.

agreed.

preseason games are also really more of a chance for guys who haven't gotten a secure job yet a chance to find some team willing to take a chance.

I don't get the Draft change. It should go by record. If a team goes 16-0 but loses in the Playoffs, they SHOULD pick later than the team that went 10-6 but went to the Super Bowl. Just because you have a good Playoff run, doesn't mean you should draft later. It should be a result of what happened during the regular season. In essence, a "cinderella" could get shafted. Not that the last few picks are that different, I'm just speaking in general here.

IMHO

2 scrimmage games 2 preseason games

18 game season

add two more teams to the playoffs that way you have a true wildcard game

I was also thinking that with more games you would need to have a larger roster, go up from 53 to 60 players, to account for the added injury possibilities.

      Micah officially requests a trade

      By TD alt · Posted

      You see, I just don't subscribe to a cookie cutter type of philosophy when it comes to trades or team building. Every situation is different. Many may disagree, but I think that FOs that can't draft impact-players beyond the first round aren't really viable.  Just for argument's sake, because we all know this hypothetical trade is as realistic as the moon being made of cheese, Micah is a young dawg really just beginning his prime and is arguably the most valuable pass rusher in the league. He could realistically play at a high level for at least the next five to seven years. Parsons' current trajectory is Canton. That being said, he's not some old merc that fits the mold of "one piece away," he's a core piece to any defense for the better part of the next 10 years. Pass rushers of his caliber and age don't generally become available, so, sure, he'd help an elite team, but he's also a fit for a younger team that's building. I know that you don't agree, but it's all good. I respect your rationale.

      Here's my not important take on this subject.  Who wouldn't want a pass rusher of his consistency?  I would absolutely love to have him on this defense.   Would I give up Brown in a trade for him.  Nope, I would never do that.  Interior linemen are way to important to be settling for whatever you can get at the position.   Would I trade 2 firsts,  plus fork out a big contract for him?   Without knowing if Young is for sure going to be our long term, franchise guy,  there is no way I'd be okay with letting go 2 firsts. As for the contract that he'd demand, I just dont get caught up with NFL contracts.  They have been out of control for decades.  So I really dont get upset over big contracts. It's just a fact of life in the NFL.  You HAVE to pay for talent.
