The file, as you know, has three fairly comprehensive metrics: superbowl appearances, pro bowl appearances and tenures as a starter. I get that you would prefer SB wins, but it doesn't diminish the comprehensive nature of the file. I'd be more than willing to consider an alternative, but while the three metrics aren't what you want (i.e., SB wins), the three categories listed above aren't misleading in any way when considered over a static population over a 17 year period.

Ediut: Fair point, but I think we can debate the appropriateness of the two metrics And not come to definitive conclusion

Pleaes give this to the Russians and let them push Rosen into our laps, Baby Jesus.

I like the idea of trading up to 6/7 now. It would create so much more flexibility in the coming weeks and wouldn't lock us in to even taking the pick.

You are a Bama fan; we wouldn't expect you to value passing offenses.

I don't have the time or the interest in going through the fallacies in this other than to say, you are right on Roquan. He will be a great LB for someone in picks 8-11.

Yes....six Yugos instead of a Luxury SUV and a good Sedan.

We've got this....

Sidenote and distinct from his actions: What a ****ty friend to videotape this.

edit: Nevermind.....

The 5th ranked QB, no WRs, too many interior OL, no OTs, no edge rushers. I appreciate what you are trying to do, but this just doesn't satisfy my hopes for this draft.

You prefer All-Pro over Pro Bowl for datasets and the premise of your 15 year period requirement is nonsensical. Again, these are your preferences (which is fine), but do nothing to undermine the validity of the data/information.

Those aren't problems; those are your preferences. The data set is what it is and please feel free to do whatever you want with it, including disregard it.

It seems to be resonating more than your rebuttal....

Thanks. From Benjamin Albright's twitter feed.

One of the most interesting points in this piece IMO is the fact that Beane admits he isn't ready to move up yet. Unless he is lying (which I doubt), we weren't beat out for the Jets pick.

If you can't keep up with the conversation at the adult table, slide down to the kiddie table.
