True, good point.

This is exactly the news I am interested in. Im very glad he got hot and started connecting, its early in camp so this is good. Hopefully he doesnt need a "warming up" period as camp progresses and he can start hot. This practice almost seems like a microcosm for his rookie season. Its exciting to see him close out well and the optimists will point to that for what is to come in the future but detractors can look at the entire day and say well he was ultimately 10-19 which is 52% which is mediocre.

I mostly recall during the EJ days the reviews were generally positive from Astro (or at least had a positive spin on it) while EJ was getting killed by the rest of the media. Many people on this board thought the media had an agenda against EJ, and looked at Astro's notes as counter-points. We all know how that turned out. I read Astros stuff, again not hating. It just is usually the rose colored versions of things IMO.

Not trying to hate but Astro is usually much more positive than other media members the review the practices. Not that hes wrong but I just keep that in mind when reading it. Its a good contrast to everything else though.

Actually, despite Allens overall accuracy numbers, his air-yards-to-first-down numbers were one of the best in the league and thats something that gets me excited. He is always going to try to move the ball.

Foster also wasnt on the roster for most of the season but came on strong when Allen came back from injury. The hype on this board over that guy is definitely a bit too high. I would love it if he made the team but the CFL is very different than NFL with the deeper endzone and the running starts. Much harder to get separation in the NFL so hes got his work cut out from him. I think WR is one of the toughest positions to transition from because of those factors.

Why do we ALWAYS play the Jets when we end up 5-2??? It happened in 2008, 2011, 2017 and we lost all of them. If we didnt make the playoffs in 2017 being 5-2 thrice and missing the playoffs each time would be an unbreakable record. Dammit Dalton.

Thats what I didnt get. They had Barkley and Allen call him, McD got on the phone too. They acted like he was this incredible get but I kept thinking why didnt you just draft him? I guess its all good in the end since we got him anyway but could saved some headache and had him in the 7th

Also, the Bills did this last year and had some during training camp. Kyle is brutal. I get the sentiment of having him narrate but....its bad.

Even IF the Broncos fans liked Allen as much as we do, they still shouldnt make that trade. JA is unproven thus far and they just drafted Drew Lock. Why on earth would they give up Chubb for Allen? This is insane.

I havent seen any Jets fan think that Allen is better than Darnold. Most think that Sammy is much better, as they should since hes their guy, even if the do respect Allens talent. I think most fans here are also probably feel the same about Josh. Please show me the thread where "most" Jets fans feel they made the wrong pick, Id love to read it.

I would say we got worse at inside D-Line. Oliver is a stud but hes still a rookie, no chance he can 1:1 replace Kyle. TE is likely a wash. LB will depend on how Milano comes back.

This is it exactly. Any team can now get Bell for a reasonable price and may be willing to pony up a high draft pick for it. If they can secure a 2nd rounder then the Jets would be effectively paying $12 mill for a second round pick which is ultimately fine. In the NBA this type of stuff happens all the time, trading cash for picks.

Yep. Even Drew Brees used to throw a ton of interceptions. Recently is has gotten them to come down and has entered the best ever discussion. I used to have him in fantasy though and it felt like he was always good for 1-2 a game. I would gladly take 30+ passing TDs this year and 12-15 ints though for Josh this season while he learns.

I do think we will need to come to terms with some level of interceptions. QBs that are aggressive will always throw more interceptions. Hopefully its offset by scoring points though.

People also loved Tyrods leadership. He was very impressive in the beginning and, like JA, everyone assumed he would take steps to develop as he played more, but he really didnt. That 2015 was stacked, especially with offensive talent. That team was much better than the team that eventually made the playoffs IMO. I also remember being very excited for 2012. We had just come off the season when we started 5-2 before we stalled and finished 7-9 but we signed Mario and Mark Anderson. Fitz and Stevie had good chemistry, Spiller was supposed to be a top RB, drafted Gilmore.

At least we know he will be motivated now.

I think hes referring to the Bills organization. For Ed and Ford they flew them both in that night to great fanfare. A round of applause in the lobby of the building, and tons of posts on social media.

Why? He wasnt even good at Baylor

People's family lives can be super complicated. Many people have families with strained relationships and sometimes wealth only makes the strain worse. Im not going to come down on Rodgers about his personal relationships without knowing both sides of the story.

He is really not a great QB. Im not sure why people think he is. His yardage numbers are wild but how can you be a great QB, have what some consider the best WR of all time for a majority if your career and consistently be on mediocre teams. Anyone who thinks Stafford is a good QB, I challenge you to make him your sole starter in fantasy. When you follow him week to week he is infuriating. All the arm talent in the world. but thats about it. I would have loved if the Phins traded for him.

Most hobbies are worthless. Not everyone is in it for the money.

Seems like a bizarre strategy. It seems like you want to draft a WR in the first and then almost stash him on the roster until Brown's contract runs out? Theres no farm system in the NFL though. If you draft a guy in the first you dont wait 3 years for him to turn into peerless price, you would want more immediate production. At this point signing Diggs and then drafting a WR in the first or second would put a lot of players at WR going into camp. Obviously competition is good but I think that capital is better used on defense and other offensive positions like O-line and TE that are more immediate needs

My mom forced it upon me haha. But wouldnt want it any other way
