I think it's pretty straightforward: Miller - Oliver - Jones (maybe Settle) - Rousseau Jones probably compliments Oliver more, whereas Settle is more supplementary. But I'm sure we'll see various combinations.

I did my undergrad in Broome County. Never found myself in the Susquehanna, somehow.

Crazy that people get worked up online. But they do.

Never heard it said that way, "the Erie." Usually how we'd mention a river, rather than a lake. The Niagara. Or Lake Erie. Or, for that matter, the 290. The 190. A highway is like a river, in a way...

Of course you can, if whatever you're doing here brings you joy. But don't act surprised or persecuted when more sincere, reasonable users of this shared space call you out for doing...whatever it is you're doing.

One could easily argue that the crimes the recently retired Pittsburgh QB was accused of are far more heinous and violent than the pattern of behavior (not sure what to label it as apparently it wasn't "criminal") Watson is accused of. Watson might be a huge creep. Roethlisberger might be a repeat rapist. And yet teams will be judged harshly for pursuing Watson, while I never really hear criticism of Pittsburgh for sticking with their alleged predator.

Sometimes it's wiser to simply do nothing...and then watch the bodies of your enemies float downstream. *paraphrasing Sun Tzu, or someone similarly revered

Roger that. Carry on

His demeanor to date suggests that he's NOT actually a great backup, if we expect a backup to be focused on helping the ACTUAL starters prepare to play each week. He might be an intriguing short-term replacement player, for the same reasons he might not be an ideal backup guy in the QB room (ego, desire to start, public statements to that effect, etc.).

Doubt they'd ship out BOTH starting EDGE guys, but...this is a smarter move than Mack, all things considered.

Your axe is sharp. Careful with that thing.

Toddlers lack patience and require immediate gratification, or they become whiny and throw tantrums. Also, many posters in this thread because a trade happened that didn't involve the Bills. Self-reflection, folks. Self-regulation, for that matter.

While of course hand size "matters" to at least SOME extent, it's important to consider exactly HOW hand size is measured. It's essentially "handspan," from tip of pinky to tip of thumb when the hand is fully splayed. A dude could have incredibly LONG fingers that wrap around the ball, but if his hand is not terribly wide, or his thumb doesn't hinge outward in a particular way, then his measurement would be lacking. Dante Culpepper, if I recall correctly, had relatively small hands (9.5" compared to his 6'4" height) by this metric because his fingers didn't separate widely (almost like they were slightly webbed). I'd bet Culpepper's hands are larger than mine if held up against each other, even though my hands actually measure "larger" by the NFL standard. Mediocre example because I'm sure 9.5" is right around the NFL average. Like so many metrics, there are limitations and there are exceptions. Nevertheless, Pickett's hands DO seem pretty effing small for an NFL QB, and especially for a dude of his stature. I'm sure solid fundamentals (TWO HANDS ON THE BALL) and modern gloves can mitigate how much this matters.

CVSs are like amusement parks now, with their own islands for each attraction/department? Imagine how long the receipts would be for such pharmacy getaways...

Oh boy. Such a fraught topic. Sorry, mods. (I will not reply to anti-vax social media posts, I will not reply to anti-vax social media posts...)

You don't think McKinnon earned some money with his late-season/playoff performance?

He definitely had some issues executing Daboll's option routes as the season wore on, but then again, so did Sanders and everyone else (including Diggs and therefore Allen). We all saw the passing game sputter a bit in unforced ways.

No way. He does NOT rush the passer well. Objectively and subjectively, this is as close as we can get to a football "fact." To date, Tremaine Edmunds lacks pass rushing ability. Anecdotally, who was the RB who absolutely stepped up and STONED Tremaine's blitz late in the season? It was such a notable play for me, as I've seen MANY other LBs fight through such A-gap blocks or even run OVER such blocks (ahem, Matt Brieda), including our own Matt Milano. (Such a notable play that I can't locate the specifics right now, of course.)

I really like this take. A lot.

Do you even KNOW how young he was when he was drafted? Let's tally up the talking points. (FTR, I would never call Edmunds a BUST, but I also would NOT endorse the team paying him even Matt Milano money for a 2nd contract.) (Also, Walter Football LOL. The blurbs for many of these picks are baffling. Lots of references to 2019 stats, freshman year performances, and just observations in general that don't fully connect.)

I like CB most of all in round one, as the value and need really seems to sync up there. If the defense can be more effectively multiple on the boundaries moving forward (switching up/blending man and zone coverages and press and off alignments), that will help against top flight QBs/passing attacks. We face a few of those next season, and for the foreseeable future in the AFC. WR is of course intriguing as well.

https://walterfootball.com/draft2022_1.php This pick and blurb oughta get a rise out of folks. Dontcha think? Discuss.

Berrios at the price referenced (sub-6M) would be a SMART signing. His fits in the slot and the return game would be ideal. Ogbah at the price referenced (plus-10M) would be LESS smart, IMO. Which is much more about the price than the player. Solid LDE in a base 4-3. Better version of Shaq Lawson, if you will. But that price doesn't mesh with current cap and draft resource allocations. Which is the issue with FA. That OG is super meh at the price referenced (~8M), when we could have Bates at less than half that and already have Williams at just over it (who seems like a similarly effective player just with tackle flex rather than center flex). Maybe moving to a more zone-heavy scheme recalibrates o-line assessments? Devalues Williams and elevates Bates? Therefore opening the door to replace Williams with someone like whoever this Rams guy is? Could be. I'm losing focus.

Maths.

That's actually THREE big points.
