First Round Bust

An off-season deep dive: Alex Smith underwent a total of 17 surgeries on his right leg after suffering a devastating compound fracture during a game in 2018. The injury occurred during a sack, and it was compounded by a severe infection called necrotizing fasciitis. The surgeries were necessary to save his leg and life, and they included debridements to remove infected tissue and limb salvage procedures Following the initial surgery, Smith developed necrotizing fasciitis, also known as flesh-eating bacteria. Smith spent months in the hospital and had to use a wheelchair, walker, and crutches before finally being able to walk again. Despite the severity of the injury and the long recovery process, Smith returned to the NFL in 2020 and even started a game for the Washington Football Team. inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame as part of the 2024 class last December. The honor comes three years after earning his spot in Utah's Hall of Fame. When NFL legend Alex Smith and his wife, Elizabeth, learned their daughter Sloane had brain cancer, they felt like their world was crashing down. “You think you have been through a lot, but when it's one of your kids, nothing prepares you for a moment like that,” the former NFL quarterback said. https://www.si.com/college/utah/football/alex-smith-and-wife-reveals-8-year-old-daughter-had-third-10-hour-brain-surgery

wow irts been a decade already ? set for life at age 31 - 40M career earning whick includes a great NFL pension - whale(y) of a pick but better trade (Phillips) He got a ring with Philly as well.. made his mind up at Kentucky Darby...

I see...so lets move the kicker to the LOS with the both lines digging-in and have a tush-push

so 50 on-sides kicks last season with 3 recovered by the kicking team for 6 percent success rate. Given that...I quite dont understand why the rule still requires these to be announced before the play..with the element of surprise being key and thus removed Can't be safety issue as the teams are lined-up close to each other and players are not running all that fast into each other ?

ihould be named after a long-time HOF lineman...John Hannah...Ron Yary...Mick Tingelhoff...and then add...Blocker of the Year Award....sponsored by...Preparation-H or Gas-X...

Next...I hope he shows-up in camp driving a Bentley with some major bling on along with deluxe sound system and a big screen TV...then dad pops in to catch his pro debut and subsequent ad hoc presser... Then onto how debate about how many QBs the Browns will keep and cut...and then which ones pass thru waivers... then get picked-up on a PS squad... that should get us thru Labor Day...

As a fan of 70s culture...I give props to JD over Von for being the 40 king..he blocked well enough during the 2003 yard season of 73 that OJ gave him an engraved bracelet.. it said. Thanks we did it..and on the other side... I didnt do it

as well interesting to note that the two punters (Camarda and Robbins) are wearing numbers 32 (OJ) and 40 (JD Hill) respectively...per Joe B and his peerless puntapalooza pointers.

as a local I will attend the the DC draft on the mall so look for me wearing the 17 jersey ..I look forward to another in the 716 in the near future as well to prep for the Super Bowl parade

in keeping with the stoner theme...lets go with Dion Yorkie...he's also kinda dreamie in a teenage crush kinda way https://www.famousbirthdays.com/names/dion.html

Cordy-Cash-Glenn...the gift that keeps on giving
