Also, how do you know I'm gonna be there?  Do you have brackets already?

 

 

Will any other Huddlers be going? I'm on staff and just got the pre-registration list. I saw that Red Mage will be in the building! Anybody else?

 

:D

Pools have been posted btw. The only brackets that I will have are TTT2 and possibly VF5FS if there's enough for a side event.

In your defense, you're also so old that you get confused when two water fountains don't have "Whites Only" and "Colored" over them :P

 

I'm old enough to know about them, but I never saw it with my own eyes unless it was pictures. Growing up in Southern California, we had the Los Angeles/Watts riots in 1965 that was civil rights related, but I never understood how burning down your own neighborhoods solved anything.

 

I was transferred to Pascagoula, Mississippi in 1975 when I came back from Southeast Asia and I can certainly tell you some stories from there.... in 1975... yes... 1975.

    • Word is that Lawrence showed up and weighed in at nearly 400 pounds for his Bengals medical check. I'd find a reason to fail him. Blood type tested as bacon grease. Fail. We've all seen what happens when a dominant huge, explosive DT can't manage his weight. You're gonna age like milk. Looking like Kris Jenkins 2.0.
    • Hard to interpret some of Brugler's opinions. Capable of running a robust route tree sounds like a lazy thing to say - I'm sure just about every slot TE is capable of running a full route tree... I want to know if he is currently able to (which from tape leads me to a no). Granted, it's pretty common for most receivers/TE not having a full route tree developed before they get drafted. Agility/acceleration after the catch hasn't shown up on his tape (at least his Oregon tape) for those dig/out breaking routes while it has for the seam and slant routes. Agree he has a good physical build and he is very good running seam routes. His build definitely helps him to shield defenders and create a large target point for the QB. Drops were a concern, but it could be focus drops just like T-Mac was/is prone to. Run blocking is an accurate statement, but again, we have only seen him run block in the slot/backfield - inline blocking is a whole different animal. With his athleticism, he definitely has a high ceiling. I just think he also has a low floor and don't like taking that big of a risk on a mid 1st rounder. I think this is a deep TE draft and would much rather target one in the 3rd or later. He's very boom or bust to me - bust in terms of being worth a 1st round pick, not an out of the NFL in a few years type bust. I feel like he gives me Evan Engram vibes. Not saying that Evan Engram was/is a bad NFL player, just that most people would agree he shouldn't have been drafted in the 1st.
