Pulled this from the "Sam Bradford" thread in the NFL forum.

Look at this list...

Sam Bradford - Rams (1-1)

The Golden Calf of Bristol - Broncos (1-25)

Jimmy Clausen - Panthers (2-48)

Colt McCoy - Browns (3-85)

Mike Kafka - Eages (4-122)

John Skelton - Cardinals (5-155)

Jonathan Crompton - Chargers (5-168)

Rusty Smith - Titans (6-176)

Dan LeFevour - Bears (6-181)

Joe Webb - Vikings (6-199)

Tony Pike - Panthers (6-204)

Levi Brown - Bills (7-209)

Sean Canfield - Saints (7-239)

Zac Robinson - Patriots (7-250)

Good grief, that's awful :unsure:

Sad to say that in what might well be the worst quarterback draft in recent memory, we took two. And XClown pointed out to me that Armanti would make three, if you count him.

Now, while we aren't in the market for a QB this draft with any high round picks, a lower round pick could be an option. I'm wondering how people think this year's prospect list stacks up against the 2010 bunch.

This year's QB class will be better than that one, but there isn't a guy that is going to come in and dazzle right away, like the last couple of years of QBs have done. This year's class will need to either take a year to learn offensive schemes and defensive alignments, or, could just take a while to develop into a star level QB (like Flacco.)

But, if we were actually in this draft, there's no reason not to get one of the UDFA guys. With guys like Jordan Rodgers (Aaron's brother, Vanderbilt QB), Sean Renfree (Duke, learned from the same coach who helped develop Peyton Manning), or James Vandenberg (Iowa, learned under Kirk Ferentz), there are definitely guys who could be there after the draft that could come in and be a fantastic back-up for Cam, and who we could use to trade like the Eagles did with Kolb.

skelton probably turned out to be the best guy on that list... pretty sad

You could probably make an argument for Kafka, though he was in an Andy Reid system, so...

Regardless, being the best of this bunch is like being the prettiest girl on an East German Olympic Swim Team from the 70s.

      25-26 NHL Regular Season Thread

      Great article on all the Lil Canes attending their debutantes ball. Walt with a great breakdown of all the rookies, as always, and I'm a huge fan of his team coverage, he is truly a treasure, but as a fan of mixed metaphors and superfluous language which some might ignorantly refer to as a "run-on sentence" I never really understood what that mean or where to put the comma after a quote in the middle of a sentence, but holy poo Walt, this is a gem, "While there's a long road left in front of them left to determine whether or not they'll have that same success on the blue line again, the beginning stretch of the journey has been thrown a wrench, and the story on defense has been the emergence of up-and-comers forced into becoming lineup regulars." , bravo, take a bow, sir!

      When the broadcast showed the two benches side by side during the last TV timeout, it was pretty obvious the whole operation is a shitshow. If I was the owner, I would play that clip, with commentary, on the jumbotron at MSG as I fired the coach, GM, President, the whole lot. Bring in your AHL leadership team, wholesale, to finish out the season and start from scratch next year.  Can't fire all the players and fold the season. But, hopefully decapitating the zombie will light a fire under the body and burn out the cancer of the roster. (It makes sense if you don't think about it...) There are obviously issues on the roster. But, you can't have the entire coaching staff completely tuned out with 5 minutes left in a 2 goal game this early in the season. And you can't trust the people that hired them to hire the next staff. If you trust your AHL GM/Scouts, let them run the deadline firesale.   ...     Please don't let the owner read any of this. Because, this poo is hilarous!
