My favorite part of the postdraft is everyone talking about the mid-to-late round steals they got and then 90% of them are never heard from again.

christensens probably the in house favorite for starting left tackle so if I never hear his name that’d be great.

Its really hard not to love the moves Carolina made at everything but QB, tbh. That Brady pick was so clutch- he'd push to start on so many teams in the league, so to get that in the 3rd is a steal.

Not sure what you're talking about, that 7th round QB Sean traded back up to grab last year is going to be the new Tom brady.

To be fair, he was supposed to be the next Taysom Hill, but there can be only one.

Pressures and hurries are the assists of the NFL. His matchup beat him twice in that clip of highlights alone but I bet they didn't count a pressure on either of those because the right side collapsed first.

I just watched a video of our obvious goat kicker that we drafted in the 5th round also doing coffin corner punts. Two positions filled to a HOF level with one pick.

Enjoy your mere starters at guard when you could've gotten an automatic all pro in the 2nd

Like one of those dudes is equivalent to an adequate NFL pass rusher right now.



Also, that quote calling BYU's offense pro-style...I don't know that I trust that person to park their car without several grisly fatalities. *sees PFF in title*, ah, now it makes sense.

I actually disagree with this a touch and would call them blocks/steals—tend to go up when you’re doing well but can be weird outliers that aren’t horribly predictive. Meanwhile, assists are more like group tackles where hilariously overrated linebackers like Zach Thomas get a metric ton of tackles but frequently get run over in solo situations by larger backs or linemen.

Taylor rules, and Thomas should send him a loving thank you card every day of his life for the number of times he didn’t have to stare down like Jerome Bettis one on one over how disruptive and shedding Taylor was.

Thomas got big counting stats but received a lot of attention as essentially a permanent walk-on. “Oh, hes undersized but he tries so hard and is always in position” *gets blown up by the TE* *gang tackles a running back*. He was fine, but anything less than a murderous defensive line and supporting backers would essentially guarantee he doesn’t get all those tackles.

So I go to the Bengals training camp every year at least once if they're open. The first year Carl Lawson was with us he was just kind of big but not, like, yoked or anything. The second year that he was with us I accidentally used the same crosswalk to get to the facility that the players use and Carl Lawson was about 10 or so feet behind me walking the same direction. I looked over my shoulder and did a literal double take, just went "holy gently caress." He looked so loving different, probably 40 to 60 lb of new muscle.

I'm not judging. I sure as poo poo would be doing the same thing but yeah there's no way these guys get to the size and shape they do without research chemicals and a good doctor.

That doesn't make sense. There isn't a "don't need it" because football is competition. The difference between 23rd best at your position and 16th is tens of millions of dollars.

I can quite confidently say that everyone is blatantly on anabolic steroids of some kind after watching A.J. Brown's 2 month transformation from college to the pros.
