The Browns whiteboard with players names was explained as "players they were working on video packages for." Coincidentally it was the exact group of players they either signed or tried to sign. Hmmmm.....makes u think

For some weird reason I feel strongly that if your team needs a QB, and your team passes on Bridgewater, then your team is dumb as poo poo. I don't know, it just seems to me that if you actually watch him play he's the only one who acts like a good NFL QB, and physically he just needs to eat more and exercise, which the NFL has had a good handle on for like 30 years or something. "Make dude bigger and stronger" isn't exactly something that's just going to baffle the loving NFL. And anyway, haven't QBs like Tom Brady and Matt Ryan never been anything but goddamn stick-people and it hasn't hurt them any? I don't know why I'm so sure about this to the point where I'm peppering everything I say with the words "loving" and "goddamn." It's especially dumb because my team doesn't need a QB and I've hardly paid attention to the draft this year, and it's not like I'm some kind of expert anyway. It just something that seems really obvious that everyone has talked themselves out of believing.

Regarding the size stuff - I think with QB's it's less about hitting the weights and putting on a bunch of muscle. When people talk about Bridgewater being undersized, they mean he is short and has a very small frame. Guys like Brady and Ryan are just larger human beings overall. They both have height and frames that are closer to what is considered ideal for QB's.

Guys today is the greatest day in the calendar year, or used to be when the first, second, and third rounds were all on the same day. My favorite thing about this day is all tweets that come out kind of have a modicum of truth, finally.

Ozu posted:Final Kiper Mock. The Jets just hilariously overvalue CB's and there is a reason they have the worst offensive talent in the league. It would be very frustrating to continue down that path with 5 years in a row of D in the first round and 3 of those being CB's.

KC passing on Bridgewater for Marquise Lee would be a nightmare. If Bridgewater is still on the board at #23, run the gently caress up and enjoy the next 5 years of peanuts QB cost. Not having to extend Smith next year for $15m+ and only having your starting QB with a ~$2m cap hit would be so god drat amazing. Although I would feel bad for Alex Smith. Poor guy being run out of town when he played well would be a bummer.

First I'm hearing that Houston wanted an RG3-type trade (exchange of firsts + 2 more and a second) for 1-1 and now McClain is saying the price is dropping just a day later. McClain is Always Full of poo poo(tm) and all but holy poo poo just turn in the card for Clowney already, Rick.

Dom Capers would even find a way to waste Clowney. And Mel Kiper has some addiction to mocking corners to the Lions. Last year he had them trading for the first overall pick and drafting Dee Milliner.
