The draft is a gamble. In your reply you suggest the 4th pick could be better than the 1st. If so, then doesnt it make sense to have multiple chances at getting the picks right?

Trade down from 1. Its the absolute highest chance of success. One player versus 4 players. If both options end up being successful, then the latter is an exponentially better result.

I think tune has a thingy for the big fellas.
 
With Maye's comments, the league would likely do some investigating if Milton starts now.

There’s no rule that says you can’t sit starters. Health is a multi year concern. It’s not like their health resets at the end of the season. Can you imagine the backlash Kraft would get if, god forbid Maye torn his ACL and missed all of next season as well.

The fans might just riot and Kraft would never feel welcomed in his own stadium for the rest of his somewhat non senile days.
 
This game is being shown across a lot of land-mass, but not a lot of eyeballs. Most of the most populous areas are seeing other games. Still, this is more viewership than usual.

It might be televised in a lot of places, but that doesn’t exactly mean anyone’s gonna actually watch this game. If many of us fans aren’t even going to watch it, why would anyone else?
 
Back in the day, Blackouts meant we couldn't watch... today is much different, you just need to look around.
I remember blackouts, they SUCKED, but I didn't know/realize workarounds.
I Love My Team, that won't change.
 
Quite a communicator, our Eliot.

Let me condense his feeble attempt at taking ownership of the dismal situation he created......

"I failed. I suck. Our coaches are trash. And the rookie WRs are ass"
Straight up. That’s basically what he said. Nail. Head.
 
They thought Polk was plug and play. He looked plg and play in preseason. Wtf happened?
Bizarre isnt it. You think they could’ve completed more slants/drags/hooks to just get them going. The steep drop from the positive reports at the beginning of the year is pretty surprising.
 
I know Mayo and AVP were saying this week that we are playing to win
They have to say that or it would be possible fines
Starters obviously will play but I wonder if this means the scrubs are going to get playing time
Which would hopefully mean treating the game like a pre season game
Hopefully to secure #1
 
Watching all the injuries in Ravens Browns, Maye shouldn’t see the field
 
Polk to IR? LOL wow. Who the hell is deciding this? Tomorrow should be about force-feeding him the ball.

I think he was on the injury report with a bruised ego.

Maybe Baker will play? I hear wheelchair bound people are grabbing up tickets.
 
They will sit maye and Henry tomorrow along with Boutte . No way anybody who is slated for 2025 plays tomorrow's game. I expect white, pharms, Pettus , Hooper to have limited playtime.
