  1. Yuk. That's a huge overpay, especially a week before the draft and at this point in free agency. Good for him.
  2. The changes to his list usually reflect a lot of the chatter about guys at this time and where they slot in. I think last year he had Kizer as the #1 quarterback, then at like 4-5 a week before the draft. I remember EJ Manuel artificially moving up his list as well.
  3. I'm going Rosen, but I think Darnold is the other possibility. I think we could trade up for either and I still cling to those really early reports that the Bills loved Darnold or Rosen. One of those reports I think has to be true. Again the Darnold report was in December...not a smokescreen...it could be wrong, but it is not a smokescreen. Even the Rosen report was pre-combine and such. News at that time is usually closest to the truth.
  4. I'm all about reading coverages and passing into windows with anticipation. Going through progressions, processing information. I want the ball out, before receivers come out of breaks. Then you have to have the arm strength to drive the ball in there. If you can do those two things, you will be a successful quarterback. A guy who can do those things can beat any defense. I guess it really isn't a metric, but that's what I want.
  5. I think it's likely. Gettleman may have told Beane that if he could get to six, then they have a deal. It guarantees the Giants one of Barkley, Chubb, or Nelson.
  6. No pants immediately changes the context of the picture. Quite significantly actually.
  7. I lick the twinkie package, the tops of a protein shake, the cheese that gets stuck on the inside of my cheeseburger wrappers. I lick the lid of my baby's formula package. Such a bad habit.
  8. I know people don't like Walter Football, but he has the Browns taking Allen, Jets passing on Darnold for Mayfield, us trading to 4 for Darnold and Rosen sliding all the way to 23, to the Patriots.
  9. If so, Baker is the true millennial jackass here. Despite what people perceive, the idea of putting yourself out there and being honest and open, not trying to be fake, ala Josh Rosen, that is quite the opposite of a spoiled millennial child. Most of those people learn, from their parents, to try and manipulate the system in some way. Lie, deceive, present yourself as something you're not. Apparently there was a little of that with Mayfield and his dad, and probably more of that here. I'm a teacher...I deal with it every day. I have faith that someone like Kim Pegula would be smart enough to see what a loser this guy is. It makes sense that the Jets would like him.
  10. Ok I don't like this obviously, but I'm trying to stay positive. The Pats liking him probably means that Daboll is banging the table for him, so that gives me some hope that he is indeed our target. We have way more ammo than any team behind us to try to grab him. I think we have an agreement in place with the Giants based on who is there and if that falls through, probably the Broncos, Colts, or Bucs. Jason Licht at Tampa is a former NE crony, so that is not great obviously.
  11. I still think he's better than Mason Rudolph. I believe they brought in Peterman last year. To me though, what happened last year is irrelevant because Beane was not here.
  12. Everyone will suddenly fall in love with Kyle Allen after the show.
  13. How dare he speak so confidently...what a stupid liberal millennial. Who does he think he is? ?
  14. Is this different than his "trade blueprint" report?
  15. 90% of the appeal of Nate Peterman is that he wasn't Tyrod Taylor. Now we have AJ and another shiny new toy coming next week.
  16. Lance does a good job with his evaluations. People say he sucks when his evaluations doesn't match up with their illogical man crushes.
  17. Anyone who likes Mason Rudolph, this is a warning. This is what you are signing up for.
  18. Technically speaking, he threw it about 45 yards. Was a nice throw though. Good touch on it.
  19. Oh gotcha. Licht left in 2012 for Arizona and then wound up in Tampa, Robinson joined him in Tampa in after the 2013 season...so I guess Robinson is the guy. It makes sense.
  20. They lost Floyd Reese, Jon Robinson(Titans), Jason Licht (TB), Bob Quinn (Lions). Not sure about scouts and such.
  21. Perhaps the Colts thought they could drop down to 6 and still get Chubb, Barkley, or Nelson. Like maybe their intel said the Giants were taking a quarterback, and now that has changed. As time goes on and things change, maybe they know all three will be gone, so looking to trade down more. If you can't get one of those three, why bother staying there at 6? That is the danger of making trades too early. I think they want Roquan Smith...with their switch to a 4-3, he is the kind of player they completely lack for their defense.
  22. Wouldn't work. Stanton's trade value is at an all time low right now. NY fans are killing him. He's batting like .086 in the Bronx. Otherwise the trade looks good.
  23. Well we really needed TJ Graham so...priorities!
  24. I know people get mad when Hughes or Lawson tardes are suggested, but man they are bringing in a lot of defensive ends...maybe this is Hughes' last year here? I think it's interesting.
