Default The Solder-Dowling connection.

By accident I've finally figured out BB's picking strategy.

Each players coach said the exact same thing about their players(Solder,Dowling) that struck out to me.

"He's the kind of guy you hope your daughter brings home someday."

It's the big selling point in drafting these guys and he's obviously trying to find a suitor for Amanda. He just has to control everything,that old rascal.

Opinions?

I think your going out on a limb on that one. I think this selling line with the coaches regarding daughters is just the new fad sell of this draft. blah blah, I wish I had a 100 players just like him, best player I ever coached etc. This one will be used more in the future I'm guessing.

Can you imagine if the coach at Hampton used this line for Kenrick Ellis? Every parents dream lol

I find this thread hilarious because Pioli married Parcell's daughter and became the GM of the Jets the same year Parcell's became the coach. Maybe you are on to something

The plot thickens...what if the NFL has somekind of a secret inbreeding code to create genetically superior players,coaches and GM's to keep us normal folk away from the stardom and money?

This requires further research.

The same was also said about Vereen. There was a thread in the main forum a few days ago about that.

Chris Snee is married to Tom Coughlin's daughter, for what it's worth.

Yep. The first three draftees all have impeccable character according to their coaches and scouts. Nothing really new in that. Belichick will always take a guy who might be a (slightly) lesser raw talent but has strong character and work ethic than a guy who has more inherent physical talent, but not as morally straight.

He probably can't run a sub-5.0 40 either. Not sure of the relevence of desireable player characteristics to non-players.
