Can it wait until Monday?

OT if they're there. If Lomu, Iheanchor or Miller are all gone, then they're screwed. Unless someone drops.

For all the moaning about bad WR drafts, you look around and see so many teams cutting bait with their successful WR hits, certainly true of the infamous 2019 draft, but now you see it all over the place. The Cowboys aren't going to sign Pickens long-term, and the Steelers sent him packing...

Sometimes the strategy of maxing out on 2nd round picks actually works out for you if you're not in love with what's left in the first round. 4 second round picks, 2 of them were home runs (Vollmer and Chung), 1 was OK to underwhleming (Darius Butler actually had a decent career elsewhere in...

Mel Kiper's list. All the big bodies and tackles rise up in the rankings, 7 of them. This is why it's exceedingly hard to draft a tackle. Everyone grabs them. When you get a chance at one, you grab them...

Around the league, the hit rate on WRs is 33%. I broke it down years ago and saw that 2/3rds of were busts. Even in the infamous N'Keal Harry draft, people rarely talk about the fact that only 3 of the 9 WRs who went in the first 2 rounds panned out while others like Harry, Hardman...

How did you get your peenie on your finger?

Let's go Sabres!!! How dare the Bruins steal Brass Bonanza!

Zachariah Branch may drop a round or 2 because of this incident. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/48532665/nfl-draft-prospect-zachariah-branch-arrested-georgia I have to say, whenever I see charges like "Obstructing the sidewalk" and "Failure to Obey commands" I immediately imagine that...

That's insane. The 10th pick and a hefty contract??? This must be the weakest draft in NFL history. Then again, it's the Bengals. This is beyond absurd.

These are just blatant lies.

Yes, I totally understand what you're saying and agree. I'm only saying that coaching and philosophy are even more important.

I think the problem is bigger than that. It's not a matter of a faulty player evaluation. It's a matter of a failed philosophy. The players they brought in are exactly as advertised analytically. Big strong and fast. High work rate. They can't complete passes. So this is more about style...
