So it took over four hours, and three of those hours were commercials. But Drew Pearson knocked it out of the park.

Jags got some o-line help and another pass rusher, so that was good. Hopefully they are good players and not dog poo poo!

Can't claim to have watched him at all since he's an FCS school guy but I'm reading Kpassagnon is a physical freak who's kind of a project. Big, his frame has room to put on more weight, explosive, doesn't have a whole lot of technique. He's smart (accounting/finance double major) so he's already gotten some dumb 'does he care enough about football?' takes.

Hunt I remember kinda liking, but just for running through MAC defenses which a lot of people seem to do. According to the nfl.com stuff he's a zone blocking runner with good vision who can catch the ball, so if that's true he seems like a good fit.

The Dallas Cowboys are the greatest team in the history of ever and I am drunk with power and life is wonderful and when should I expect the firing line:shepface:



Seriously though, so far I've got very little to complain about with the Cowboys. Their little gamble on DE 1st round, secondary 2nd round appears to have paid off.:shrug:

Quick update on what the 49ers have done with the #2 overall pick, the pick they wanted to use to draft Solomon Thomas


- Solomon Thomas
- 111 overall
- 229 overall (from New Orleans, by trading Chicago's #67)

- 2018 2nd round pick (from New Orleans, by trading Chicago's #67)
- 2018 3rd round pick (from Chicago)

Oh good, Mahomes is going to wear #4. I'm sure will temper Kansas City fans expectations and help give them patience to let him sit without screaming for him every time Alex throws 2 yards down the field on third and 8.

He's got fantastic athletic ability but he plays a little slower. Maybe coaching up will free him to showcase some more?

Hunt was really good at Toledo and I couldn't tell you too much about Tanoh, but he looks like a freak.

I'm a bit surprised that Dorsey also used his 2nd round pick to future proof the roster. They must not count on Allen Bailey being around for long.

They lost Howard and Poe in the last 2 months and Bailey is really inconsistent against the run.

I'm really surprised Dorsey hasn't even made an attempt at ILB, which is a far bigger need than RB. Maybe they have a ton of faith on DJ coming back strong.

Seahawks traded down, and had four 3rd round picks, and two 2nd round picks. Used them to draft 2 dt's, 2 db's, 1 OL, and 1WR. Outside of WR those were by far the biggest positions of need for the team. Malik and Pocic, DT and OL, were the highest selections and both look like they have a ton of upside.

This really wasn't a great ILB class.

After Reuben Foster, it was a lot of, "man, eh. I don't know how well this player really projects in what they run."

Howard was already replaced by Chris Jones and they just swapped NT's basically.

I thought the OL was a glaring area of need, considering the Texans haven't got anyone in free agency?

Man are we hosed if that's the case.

I think they were planning to go ILB but the best choices came off the board before they ever picked again. They will sign Hodges after the draft and try again next year.

so yeah the Chargers haven't done anything that i've expected them to. WR in the first and then a pair of guards in the next two rounds.. it's a little odd, I really thought they'd address defense at some point, since safety is still a gaping hole and they could always use another pass rusher.

My guess is that the FO thinks their defense being terrible last year had to do with scheme and injury and that the switch to Bradley's 4-3 will pay immediate dividends. Either that or they're trying to be the poor man's version of the Cowboys, just grinding out the ball for 30-35 minutes a game and trusting what talent they do have on D to not lose it for them when the offense is not on the field. It's weird.

Like, i'm happy they finally decided to address how lovely the interior of the offensive line has been for years, it just isn't how I expected them to go about it.
