We taking Brock Bowers with that?Hopefully things change, but it seems like most have the 3 QB’s and 3 WR’s going 1-6.
Let’s all do our part and hype up JJ McCarthy.
If we can’t get one of the big 3, I don’t have much of an appetite trading up for Brian Thomas .. just double up at WR early if we want to burn next year RD1.
A run of 3 QBs and 3 WRs in the first 6 picks would be unprecedented. Not saying it won't happen, but highly unlikely.

I'll play devil's advocate on the bolded. Why is that necessarily a great thing? Are you saying Josh's decision-making is infallible? We know that's not exactly true.
Who are the new leaders that Josh will look to for feedback on team-wide culture stuff?
Don't discount the importance of a strong leadership team.
I agree that it's an important step for Josh to make, as McDermott recently put it, become the face of the franchise. This move solidifies this as Josh's team. Now Josh needs to take the bull by the horns and demand excellence from his offense. With Diggs there, Josh would never of been able to do that.

The more and more I've thought about this the more it makes sense.
1: Diggs is 31 and prob only has a couple years left as #1. This draft is loaded and if you can get one of the top 3-4 WRs, you've effectively replaced him with a new #1 for the next 10 yrs. Trading him now, at least they got value to make the move to get one of those guys.
2: The trade clears his contract from the team going forward and gives them breathing room next year to move on from Miller if he doesn't produce this year.
3: dead cap is $31M. Diggs hit was $27M. So that's a $4M difference. Add on the rookie #1 WR cap hit, prob $2-4M and now that #1 cap hit is around $35M this year instead of $27M. They essentially are paying a slight premium to move on.
4: A rookie gives them, hopefully, a star WR on a rookie contract for the next 4 years or so, again, allowing money to be spent elsewhere.

So the name actually changes and would remain the English name?

This board would explode if Beane ever had a draft like that (Whitner, McCargo, Youboty, Ko Simpson, Keith Ellison). Silver lining is we landed Kyle Williams in that draft.
I think my brain went into safe mode and helped me forget how bad that draft was. Dear god, drafts like that are why a team will be in perennial suckage for years to come.
7 hours ago, BullBuchanan said:Ko Simposn had a big rookie year for us and Whitner, while a bit of a disappointment, was a day 1 starter who played for 11 seasons. Far from our worst draft.
The thing that everyone always overlooks on bust drafts picks, is that in the vast majority of cases (unless you're Jacksonville, the Raiders or New England) that guy who was a massive disappointment for your team, was getting drafted in the next couple of picks if you didn't take him. The draft is just as much luck as it is skill.
If we didn't draft sammy watkins #4, he was going in the next couple picks. Same for Mike Williams, Ej Manuel, JP Losman, etc.The problems lies where its the same team drafting the massive disappointment year after year

Look for injuries galore with this new rule. It makes you wonder the mentality of a kick returner in this new iteration of the NFL. No more fair catches, the old onside kick rules. Safety has been put on the back burner.
Can you imagine being the kicker, the last line of defense, attempting a tackle on a returner that is now coming down the field full speed?

This century = 23 seasons of between 256 and 272 games per season, or around 5900 games (not including playoffs), so a surprise onside kick is attempted in roughly 3% of games.
I’d say it’s not a big part of the game.
Regardless how much it's attempted. It's a cool element to the game for coaches to have in their tool box. A 45% success rate is pretty good.

There have only been two "surprise" onside kicks that I saw work in my lifetime...New Orleans in the Super Bowl and the Bills in the comeback game (although Houston should have been expecting it).
It's just not a big part of the game.
A quick Google search came up with this:
"In the NFL, about 10 times per year, a head coach pulls a “surprise” onside kick - which I define as one that occurs in the first, second, or third quarter of the game. This century there have been 192 surprise onside kicks. Those have been successful 87 times (45.3 percent).Mar 14, 2020"

It will be the same as it is now but needs to be declared that they are trying an onside kick prior to lining up.
That kind of sucks cause that eliminates surprise on-side kicks

Take the highest ranked prospect on their board at a position of need.
Unless they trade pretty far up there isn’t going to be a WR at 28 worth the pick. At that point it will be the 7th-9th best receiver.
I highly doubt 6-7 WRs get drafted before 28
-
I think regardless of these signings we still need a WR to replace Diggs and this the draft to do it. This may be Diggs' last year with us.
What we do to get that WR? I think it's a fluid situation depending on how the draft is falling whether we stay put or move up. I'm sure they have their targets for who they are willing to trade up for if that person falls a bit to us. Maybe we get lucky and someone falls to us at 28 that the really like.

He'll probably pull a hammy signing his new contract.
All jokes aside, dude is exactly the type of WR we need at #2. Big, physical, fast, and comes down with contested balls. Buuuuuut, has he ever played a complete season?
Id only take him if he came in on a 1 yr prove it deal, which he may have to do post ACL. Is he also still getting all that guaranteed money from SD since they cut him?
-
I'd rather have Ekeler. He's the dual threat that Buffalo has been trying to get.

Pretty much every big Chiefs game comes down to one thing. Who has the ball last. If we controlled the clock and score a TD we win. Nope, we stall and kick a FG. The SB ended the exact same way.

You replied directly to me twice. Don't gaslight.
It was clear after you said "Is it really her fault that the NFL and the networks took full advantage of her newfound relationship? I guess if you believe in the conspiracies then you would say yes." one one post, and then tried to twist words and dance around it on the next post, that you were not worth speaking to anymore.
Your last post confirmed my initial hunch. Again, enjoy your Super Bowl.
I stand corrected. I thought it was boyst.
Regardless, no, I didn't twist anything. I stand by exactly what I said in both posts. There are plenty of conspiracies running around about her being involved. So if you believe that she is, then yes, you believe a conspiracy theory cause there is zero proof or facts to support this idea into anything more than a conspiracy.

Yes but it generally helps to have a law or infraction to quote when a lawsuit is made vs. Miss Swifts claim of it being mean because it makes her look bad for what she is doing which espousing conflicting messages.
Yes, I agree. I do see her concern with the tracking of her jet though. She's had several stalkers that have got themselves way to close to her. I also recognize that her and her PR team don't like the negative attention the tree huggers are bringing as well. That's definitely a large part of her problem with it.
If Elon couldn't do anything about the guy the was tracking him, then I doubt she'll be able to. Is it even the same guy?

Listen buddy if you want to gatekeep the thread and go after anyone who speaks against the blessed name of Taylor, go for it. I'm not up for an all day back and forth online debate. Enjoy your Super Bowl.
Wtf? Where did you even come from? Zero of my replies were directed at you. Are we only allowed to express an opinion that aligns with yours? GTFO

and this is the problem. This is the toxic conformity (which I largely blame on the media) over the last four years that bothers me. You must think one way or else.... At least it used to only apply to more important topics. now it is even in pop culture.
What if I told you that it was possible to both be annoyed with the overexposure of Taylor and not be a conspiracy theorist? Josh Allen has a celebrity girlfriend too, but I don't remember that being shoved in everyone's face.
This has zero to do with the question I posed. I'm not talking about if you are annoyed with it all or not. My post was about whether someone believed she has fault in her _NFL_ overexposure or not. Was she just a girl in a relationship attending football games that everyone else took advantage of? Or is she involved in a deeper plot?
My statement was suggesting that if you believe Taylor is involved in her over exposure in the NFL that you believe in the conspiracy theories surrounding that. Such as, the relationship is fake and is a media stunt collaborated between her and the NFL, etc... Do you believe she coordinated all the camera shots before,during, and after the games?
The media and NFL taking advantage of her being at games and in a relationship with a player, has nothing to do with whatever else is going on in her life.

Tell that to the people that says they are sick of seeing her because of all the overexposure the NFL gave her this year.

That's not the problem anyone has with her. It's that she has so much baggage. She flies across a city and then sues the dude who tracks her plane without even listing a crime.
You realize a crime doesn't have to be committed to sue someone, right?

Why? Her culture is the embodiment of everything wrong with our culture.
She is a magnificently talented entertainer who has charmed her way across the world. It's not what so many dislike her for or wish to never see her again.
Maybe it isn't all directed at you but I work with plenty of guys at work who are football fans from across the spectrum of the ideology base. It is a multinational company where 1 out of 5 are not united states citizens. All of them interested in football has lamented the discussion of her. How if you dislike her the news says you're a conservative conspiracy theorist because she is at the super bowl. How if you don't like her you don't like powerful women. How if you don't like the attention she brings the league you need to rearrange your priorities. How the new fanbases should be welcome to football.
So many of us just want to ignore her but can't. And when we get tired of it we get labeled as all sorts of things.
Enough with her coverage. Let her be who she is and let us watch football in peace.
Is it really her fault that the NFL and the networks took full advantage of her newfound relationship? I guess if you believe in the conspiracies then you would say yes. Otherwise, she just a significant other that should have every right to attend her boyfriends game, just like every other player.
I blame the NFL and the networks with their greed taking full advantage of the situation more than anything.

🙄 Mahomes played great- the injury certainly didn’t affect him very much.
yeah the Dee ford Offside and the dropped int were tough. Bad luck/poor execution. Players not getting it done. The last time you’ve had any key injuries you got blown out in the SB due to those injuries.
if you’re really trying to compare the KC bad luck/injuries to the bills bad luck/injuries you’re in the wrong forum. There is no comparison.
What is your point? That the entire defense was their most valuable PLAYER?
My point was that Lamar wasn't even the MVP on his own team.

In a league where 35 QB's threw at least 200 passes or more, 8 is not "close to average." That's a mathematical fact.
QBR and passer rating are not the same thing.
My bad, I thought I read QBR. Although, passer rating is also a made up calculated stat that has shown its weakness in the past. The whole reason ESPN tries to make something better by creating QBR.
Diggs traded to Texans for picks
