Helmets look good, socks and shoes look stupid. Auburn is about to put the pain on.
-
There was a Royce McKinny that played on the 1975 team.
-
any idea how old he is?
-
Can he take out an insurance policy on his health?
Unless he has inside knowledge of a likely work stoppage, this makes no sense. He's two semesters away from getting his degree... Great! How about he works on that for the next 10 years while he's banking coin in the NFL. By the time he's done with his football career some of his education will be wasted anyway as building codes will be changed to make room for the flying automobile, ozone protective shields, etc.
-
Matt Barkley will also come out next year. If both are healthy and we continue to suck we'll have two shots at a franchise QB.
-
I wasn't impressed last night. Forget the drops, last night was the perfect chance to show that he was a "champion". I didn't see him gutting it out. If anything, it seemed like the team relied more heavily on the running game. Ohio State was down to what.... their 5th string CBs and Arkansas still didn't seem to stretch the field much. I saw a ton of check downs and a waste of a cannon for an arm. My impression was that he wasn't a leader... or at least not an effective one.
I also saw enough of Pryor to know that I want nothing to do with him.
If we stay at 3 and Luck is gone, we should go DL.
-
I've seen every game he has ever played and while he had a better year this year he only has 7 td's in 6 seasons, he has health, speed and height issues. I say move on ad get some fresh meat like an AJ Green from Georgia. The kid is big physical and catches eveything.
So you want to use our 1st round pick (probable top 5) on a WR?
-
Honestly at this point, I wouldn't mind if they went somewhere other than QB with their first round pick. If you buy that it'll take 3 years to be relevant, why not address either line with an elite player that can step in and start day 1. Barkley looks better to me than any of the QBs that will be draft elligble this year, and he can't come out until 2012.'s draft.
-
So a QB that had to audible because he didn't like the defensive matchups shouldn't be able to call a timeout when the player don't get in position soon enough?
-
Last week the Bills were 5.5 pt underdogs, in a line that I thought was ridiculously easy money for the Jets better.
This week we're 1.5 pt dogs at home against the Jaguars. At one point we were even money, but that seemed too generous. I think they'll rush all over us, and even though they're near the back of the pack in passing defense, I don't see where we have the weapons to exploit. I think it's a close game, within 3 either way. I'd stay away.
I'll take Green Bay -3 vs. the Redskins.
-
How sweet
I'll take the Jets -5.5. Even without Reevis, I can't see Fitzpatrick having a great day while he's laying on his back.
-
He doesn't get our team over the hump to become a playoff team, so it's not worth taking him on if it means draft picks.
-
I love saying I told you so... but there were many others that saw this coming too.

Who knows though.. maybe 12 games of Cushings will still be better than 16 of Maybin.

Would you feel that way if someone asked you, your son or daughter, "is your mother a prostitute?" during the course of a job interview?
If my son had just told them that I was a pimp, and that his mother worked for me, I wouldn't have an issue.
-
Look at his numbers last year as a starter for half the season on the Cowboys. Now tell me what his numbers would have looked like on the Bills last year. He would easily be our 6th receiver behind Evans, Johnson, Hardy, Roscoe (yes Roscoe) and Easley.
As the 4th option in the receiving corp (Austin, Witten and Roy Williams) he out performed everyone on the Bills last year not named TO. Patrick Crayton would start on this team.
-
Would have to battle if out w/ Felton Huggins and C.J. Hawthorne to make our practice squad. Seriously.
Crayton would be a viable option on this team.
-
Just a thought pursuant to nothing in particular...I wonder if the interview was audio or videotaped?
Anyways, this was an interesting subject.
I'll bet you anything that it was taped. Whether or not we'll ever see those tapes is another story.
-
Silver asks a good question. Bryant's version is on the record. Ireland's isn't. Why?
Then again, Jim Trotter counters with the equally valid point: Bryant was on the record about his relationship with Deion, too, and that turned out not to be true.
Whole bunch of he said-he said here, and right now, I'm not sure I believe EITHER story.
If I were Dez Bryant, entering the NFL with the "diva" tag after having been suspended at the college level, I'd want to fly as far under the radar as possible in my rookie season. I would not be looking to add any new targets to myself. It says something to me that he's this outspoken.
-
And what do you think about the equally big issue...that the Dolphins, after the apology, leaked the "context" of the interview to make their position more defensible?
I guess I'm not following:
Do I think that it was wrong for the Dolphins to leak this? No worse that Dez leaking the question originally.
Do I think that the Dolphins are trying to save face? Possibly. I invision a scenario where Jeff was told by the NFL or by the Dolphins to issue his apology. He did what he was told, issued the apology and moved on. His co-workers thought he got the shaft, and came out to support him.
Do I think that it's possible that Dez Bryant is now lieing to save face. Possibly. He did lie to the NCAA in an attempt to save himself.
-
PFT has been covering this all day. According to Dez Bryant, it did not go down like this at all.
This is the Dolphins trying to save face. The funny thing is that if it went down like this, why did Ireland apologize rather than put out this version of events then.
We'll never know, unless Richard Nixon had hidden recorders in Miami as well. Personally I think the truth lies closer to what the Dolphins are saying than what Dez is saying, but that's based on nothing but a gut feeling.
-
This part of the article is what puts it into perspective. It was unecessary, tasteless and irrelevant.
"This kid may have led the league in [pre-draft] visits," one GM said of Bryant. "He was pounded by clubs. But I haven't heard about anybody else asking the type of question about the mother that the Dolphins did, so that tells you that no one else felt comfortable about going that road. You hear about all types of crazy questions being asked, but this is really the first time where there was something as insensitive as this. I'm sure Jeff wasn't the only one in the room. I wish somebody else had said, 'You know what? We don't need to go there.' "
I have a feeling that the GM quoted above said that without knowing the context of the question.
-
This at least puts the question in perspective.

At least what I have heard/read is most scouts don't think he's fast enough or has the acceleration to have sucess like that at the NFL level. Very good college player who could be a backup in the NFL.
As I said in the other thread... he looks fast to me on the highlight reel, but I don't know that that will translate to the next level when tackles are bigger, faster and stronger. I wasn't impressed with his moves, as he pretty much just rushed around the outside and took advantage of tackles poor footwork. I hope I'm just being a "glass is half empty" guy, and I hope he proves me wrong.

i don't know if anyone has ever heard of this guy but he was one of our undrafted free agent signings. if you have never heard of this guy go ontohttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EUyj73qqOgU and watch video of this guy. i don't know how he went undrafted cause he is a beast but i'm glad that we picked him up. he led the sec in tackles for losses and sacks
Discussed in another thread.
