Fun fact: Last year there were only 5 DTs in the NFL that had more Tackles for Loss per game than Ed Oliver. But please keep telling us how awful he is and that you never see him make any plays. It's funny because it just shows how little you actually see.

I don't watch film of 50 other NFL DLinemen and neither do you. My guess would be that he's somewhere in that neighborhood.

No, he's had a pec injury, has had to wear a knee brace and has had "core muscle" surgery in the offseason previously. And those ankle injuries are chronic for him; they've popped up I think every single year he's been in the league. It's a problem because a) at his size he has to work so hard that it makes him more prone to injury and b) when he does get injured it's more detrimental to an undersized guy who relies so much on effort.

The only real problem isn't that Oliver is a bad player, he's not. It's that there's a real possibility that he's going to spend a large chunk of his career regularly fighting injuries that hamper his speed and strength.

Watching people that have absolutely zero clue about DT play freak out about this is hilarious.

What if he'd have been wearing a Chiefs hat?

He's absolutely gotten better at it but there are still instances where he's late getting into and out of his set and it puts him behind the play.

I interpret it as him saying that sometimes he's late to the line and slow off the snap. Which he is.

Woah, wait a minute. Are you saying that there are some days that aren't Doughnut Day?! 😲 I no longer understand the world and am going to need some time to collect myself........

Fresh foolishness regarding NE and Houston

2 posts in 19 years. That is likely an unbreakable record. Much respect for your self-control. So much respect that I am going to do something I never do and ruin the 4merper4mer's fun. He's currently working on hooking you into a genuinely bizarre and maddening conversation for his own entertainment. Your best bet is to walk away laughing. 🤙

Thank you for yet another repetitive 100 post crusade in a single day. Extra kudos for inserting a bunch of irrelevant woke nonsense. See you when training camp starts. Maybe.

I was just conning you into showing up. I'm still going to kick your ass.

You should tack Damien Harris onto your added list since he's essentially Motor's replacement.

Im just messing around I'll behave

I think the Bengals move in front of us and steal him

Maybe. Or this....

So you're telling people they can't hang out at their favorite website during the draft because other people should be allowed to tip picks and diminish the experience for them. Seems a lot more courteous to welcome all by just waiting until you see several people talking about it and know the pick has been announced

I think its that some have delayed feeds and want to both hang out here and watch it on tv at the same time, but people are throwing out names for the one minute before they see the pick called just creates confusion for them instead of anticipation. I can see where that might be annoying if it's something you loved watching
