  1. Maybe not but listening to NFL Network radio Friday and the hosts said Giants brass believes Eli has 4 years left in him.
  2. The fumbles bother me, but I am fairly certain the interception rate is on par with Rosens. So if that bothers you about Darnold it should with Rosen as well.
  3. Was watching him earlier and my three year old daughter asked me to "turn off the creepy guy"
  4. So they are overpaying in draft picks and throwing in their pro bowl running back to be nice?
  5. Were you the same guy pushing the imminent news on a Bills/Colts trade a few weeks back?
  6. Feels a lot like the Andrew Luck to the Bills trade that was supposed to happen last month. If I only had a dollar for every google eye'd emoji on twitter that day.
  7. I agree. I am not even sure how this would work, and it mentions nothing about the 2nd of the Bills 1st round picks. So the Browns drop a pick and get what in return?
  8. Could be Dallas or San Fran. A good scenario for the Pats here is they swap 1st round picks with Dallas or SF and then package that pick with 31st to move into the top five. Should be exciting to follow.
  9. Just for the record plenty of Trump supporters arent doing this and plenty of non Trump supporters are, so something tells me whether you voted for Trump or not isnt the root cause here.
  10. Got kicked out of Florida for stealing laptops and accepting money from donors.
  11. Very average wideout at this point in his career. Hasn't been dominant since 2014. Probably can go someplace like Seattle or the New York Jets and help for a year or two. Good move by Dallas, no way you can pay him 16million this year.
  12. Is it possible to pick best player available and still fill specific starting roles? Thats a serious question. The guy just said he needs to fill 22 percent of his starting roster with draft picks.
  13. Was Alex Carrington the DT we had who blocked a bunch of kicks? I think they called him "The Hand." Seems like forever ago already.
  14. I have him a very possible replacement for Adolphus Washington this year, and the eventual heir to Kyle Williams. Thinking he is a 3rd round guy.
  15. Can I ask a question that always comes to mind when I read something like this: What advantage does it give the team drafting #1 to create smokescreens? How does this help them at all? I 100% believe Allen is their number one quarterback. He is the exact model of what Dorsey and Jackson have looked for in quarterbacks. But seriously, the #1 pick smokescreen?
  16. I see your point on the Rudolph stats. My only point here is this, if I am trying to decide between two guys like Jackson and Rudolph I am generally going to go with the guy with stats closer to the average of quarterbacks who have found success in the league.
  17. This is completely incorrect. To say their is no correlation to college stats and future NFL success is wrong. You wont find a lot of quarterbacks that have found big time success in the NFL who: Started less than 25 games in college Won less than 20 games in college Had a winning pct under 60% Had a comp % under 57% Threw for less than 200 yards/gm Threw for less than 1.5 Tds/Gm and threw more than 1.0 int/gm There are anomalies in every case, but to say it cant be used as some sort of predictor of future success I think is inaccurate. On the field play may trump stats, but in many cases you cant have one without the other.
  18. I think you and I think alike here. Every bit of this is my current thinking. Except I think the giants draft Chubb.
  19. I also doubt anyone here knows where, or when someone is going to be drafted. It is however nice to talk about these things and give opinions, kind of the point of a message board, or am I wrong?
  20. I thought this was interesting so I did some research and came up with a few of my own. Including Mason Rudolph here as I think he is a legitimate late 1st to 2nd round prospect. Josh Allen Ceiling: Joe Flacco Floor: Drew Stanton Sam Darnold Ceiling: Matt Stafford Floor: Mark Sanchez Josh Rosen Ceiling: Jameis Winton Floor: Deshone Kizer Baker Mayfield Ceiling: Andy Dalton Floor: Brandon Weeden Mason Rudolph Ceiling: Matt Ryan Floor: Mike Glennon Lamar Jackson Ceiling: Tyrod Taylor Floor: RGIII
  21. Not sure its going to take three 1sts, but its definitely going to take two firsts and two seconds. Still think they like Darnold more than Rosen, but to say they flat out dont like Rosen is probably hyperbole and a misnomer.
  22. I like the idea of the comparisons. The only problem I am having here is your floor and ceilings are completely different type of players. There doesnt seem to be any congruency there. Specifically: Floor: Chad Pennington Ceiling: Philip Rivers They are two very different players.
  23. If the Bills draft Allen I will do my best to be 100% behind the pick. However, I've had a really hard time understanding what anyone sees in him on tape. My biggest fear is that Allen is Christian Hackenberg. Similar size, and athleticism and almost the exact same completion % in college.
