  1. Houston will regret that trade.
  2. Must suck to be a Denver or Cleveland fan this weekend, knowing your team mortgaged their future for bums.
  3. Wow. Great deal for AZ
  4. I doubt it
  5. What did Houston give up?
  6. Gotta be Wilson.
  7. Also shows that a lot of NFL players —even young ones—who get ACL injuries are never the same. There seems to be a belief here that guys who tear their ACLs are automatically going to be the same player after a year on the shelf, through the miracle of modern medicine.
  8. That would be outright thievery and it will never happen
  9. I don’t see any way he slides out of the top 6. Easily the best edge rusher in the class.
  10. Definitely don’t want Tyree Wilson on the Jets
  11. I think everyone in the league knows he’ll be cut…hence, no one has traded for him. And his contract demands are a huge turnoff…
  12. There’s never any proof that someone is going to be cut…until they get cut.
  13. Relax. We aren’t trading our first round pick for a 31- year old, PED-eating WR who’s about to be cut.
  14. Well there certainly doesn’t seem to be a consensus on the top picks, but I’m not sure it’s poor.
  15. I dunno…it seems like a pretty weak class at WR and IDL, but quite strong and deep at CB, Edge and TE…average at O-line and pretty decent at QB. Not seeing how it’s so awful. Seems at least as good as last year.
  16. Agreed. I think the Packers played this just right. They got the most out of Rodgers that they could, and then managed to acquire some very nice draft capital for him on the way out the door. NE got nothing when Brady left, and he probably had a lot more left in the tank than Rodgers does.
  17. Nice call.
  18. Scouts and GMs badmouth every draft class…if the class sucks, then they can’t be blamed for coming away with mediocre players.
  19. I think Simms is wrong about the WRs too; I think at least four go in round one, just because of need, and the fact that it’s a premium position. But Simms pointed out that JSN has injury concerns and underwhelming measurables, and said a lot of people he’s spoken to in the league think he’s an overrated prospect. As you point out, his mocks have not been real good, so we’ll see.
  20. Kinda remains to be seen, no? I mean, we’re talking about a likely slot receiver in the NFL, with a history of injuries. Not crazy to think he could slip to 27. FWIW, Simms loves JSN and has him as his number 2 WR in the draft.
  21. That wasn't my question. Why is JSN to the Bills “insane”?
  22. These guys love to bad-mouth draft classes…happens every year. On the other hand, college football is broken, and that does not bode well for the NFL in the long term.
  23. Why?
  24. I guess my problem is with the terminology, not the method or the practice itself. If you're really giving out true "first round grades" then there should be 40 or more in really strong years and some number less than 32 in weak classes. If you're always giving out far less than 32 "first round grades" then you're just being a curmudgeon😃
