2020 Our Year For Sure

Why would Peter Griffin be on the Madden cover?

Are you certain they were offered the 21st pick? I could have missed it, but I only remember hearing they were offered #28 and a 3rd rounder, but instead (foolishly) opted for #28 and a 4th and 6th.

Tom Donahoe: "We're going to draft football players." Yeah. Thanks Tom. Its equally illuminating when pundits tell us a guy is a "football player." I'm so glad they can deduce this from hours of film study. "He needs to work on his hand punch." That can not be legal. "He's got good hip swivel." I like to think Jessica Biel has good hip swivel. "He can make all the throws." No complaints, I just like it. "He's got good closing speed." Uh, why not just say he can run real fast? "Perennial overachiever." At some point, would you not raise your expectations a bit to compensate for his achievements? And of course, being a Bills fan, I vomit in my mouth a little every time I hear "high motor."

This is ridiculous. We've got all these needs and we're begging people to take our draft picks.

Wow. He seriously edited the thread title and first post so he wouldn't look like a baffoon. It didn't work, mind you.

Apparently, Denver is "in discussions," trying to move up for Sanchez. They pick 12th and 18th. Unfortunately, Sanchez will probably go #8 or higher. I'm holding out hope that someone (Broncos, Skins or Jets) will fall in love with Josh Freeman and we can pick up an extra pick without even moving back very far.

Just saw it on The Bottom Line. The Giants pick 29th, so the compensation would be high. But there's a lot of players we'd have to give up on by moving back that far, obviously.

I legit laughed out loud. Well done Skooby.

With Skooby, there's no difference.

Are you for real??? I never win anything!

Napoleon Dynamite. Whats my prize?

Although I like the optimism, this is the definition of grasping at straws.

See the edit in my post above..

If I remember correctly, Chambers was re-signed before the free agency period began, and therefore never hit the market and was ineligible to talk to other teams. Edit: Yeah, here's a Tim Graham report on the signing from before the start of free agency.

Buffalo's White Knight? Be sure to take notice when The Doctor of Football talks O-line, its a nice opportunity to learn a thing or two! And welcome, Heart Throb. Nice to have an optimist aboard to help keep things in perspective when things go wrong.

Took the link outta your sig? Boo, I say!

You guys saying we need a tackle, I don't get it. Our situations at guard and d-end are much worse off than OT...

Yes, it does. Proven commodities have far more value than kids who could bust out of the league in 4 years. And Owens will be gone after the season. Boldin would be better than Pettigrew and frankly, it isn't even close.

I'll tell you this, I'd much rather get a top-5 NFL reciever for the 11th pick than a tight end we can only guess about. It makes far more sense than taking Pettigrew, IMO.

Good question. I'm not saying this is what they should do, but there seems a decent chance its what they will do. The Ravens have had some success without much of a quarterback, so I guess maybe Ryan retains that mentality.

The local papers here seem to think the Jets are taking Pettigrew at 17. They envision Keller as an H-back/recieving specialist, and Pettigrew as the all-around in-line TE.
