If you like what George Kittle can do, that's why you're likely ok with picking Hockenson at #9. In order to develop Josh Allen's game, you need to provide him a variety of pass catchers on every pass down. IMO, what sets him apart, like many TEs from Iowa, is he a football player first, athlete second. I think that's important when you get to the NFL as everyone is an amazing athlete, the plays are more complicated, the game is faster, etc. Guys like Nkoju and Ebron are superior athletes who had to learn how to play football to produce in the NFL. I don't know what happened with Ebron in Indy, but it's like there was a legitimate football epiphany there because he went from catching absolutely nothing to catching everything.

I think a difficult pill to swallow for Democrats is that especially in regards to foreign policy, Trump's approach is more Democratic Party than it is traditional Republican Party. Hell, a good barometer of knowing your foreign policy is headed in the right direction is when Dick Cheney hates it.

If any former NFL players or Uncle Ricos are legitimately interested in getting back in the league or finding their way to it, they have more opportunities today than ever before between the AAF, XFL, goodl ol' CFL and the camp tryouts NFL teams run before the "real" minicamps. I'm sure JP Losman has moved on with his life but why a young guy like Karlos Williams who has stated a desire to get back to the NFL, wasn't the first guy in line for the AAF befuddles me.

I don't think Biden is going to withstand the social media barrage he'll likely get from the radical wings of his party. He's going to say a lot of things that crew does not want to hear like "No, we can't do Medicare for all" and any sentence that starts off with "When I was Vice President...."

I voted no because Kitchens is an unproven coach. Some guys are great, brilliant coordinators and dismal head coaches. There's always potential for sophomore slump as defenses now have had an entire offseason to gameplan for your quarterback. Lots of new players takes time to mesh, especially on offense. I think they are, dare I say it, "playoff caliber" but it's not a gurantee.

I think no matter where this player lands, he will propose a prove it one year contract and bet on himself. With a healthy, productive season, he's likely one of the top five free agents in 2020 Free Agency.

I think the NYG are getting rid of the malcontents. We make fun of McDermott and his "process" but the reality is every team in the NFL has a process. Just like all of our workplaces, sometimes there are personalities that are toxic and divisive that regardless of production, just have to go. IMO, I think a growing number of teams would rather suffer the losses than put up with "personalities". They aren't worth the trouble.

It's ironic. Random group of well-fed dudes with well-fed horses, armed with firearms. Kingdom: On the verge of collapse, running out of everything, medieval weaponry

Netscape Navigator was the superior browser. Microsoft Internet Explorer had the superior deal makers and marketers. If it wasn't for the internet, the Clinton/Lewinsky scandal would have likely never been exposed.

That's a frustration decision if I've ever seen one.

If you're the child, I'm not sure what's worse: 1. Your parents get busted by the FBI with your demostrated mediocre intellect used as evidence against them; 2. You had no idea any of this happened and your parents made the decision to risk imprisonment to get you ahead seeing your chances doing it by yourself were so slim. I'd like to know how these kids are actually doing in college once they got there. Yale: "We have no idea why William H. Macy's bright child has a 1.9GPA this semester. She scored a 1420 on her SAT and she was highly recommended by 50 teachers, a couple poet laureates, a few PHDs and a physicist."

In Negan voice: AUNT BECCCKY....gett-in' after it!

Imagine being such a dull bulb that mom and dad had to resort to: "Huffman is accused of paying $15,000 — disguised as a charitable donation — to the Key Worldwide Foundation so her oldest daughter could participate in the scam. A confidential informant told investigators that he advised Huffman he could arrange for a third party to correct her daughter's answers on the SAT after she took it. She ended up scoring a 1420 — 400 points higher than she had gotten on a PSAT taken a year earlier, according to court documents." https://www.foxnews.com/us/college-entrance-exam-cheating https://www.cnn.com/us/live-news/college-admissions-cheating-felicity-huffman-lori-loughlin/index.html

IMO, reading the tea leaves, the six teams mentioned are those that submitted bonafide contract offers. Absent the cash, I think the strongest suitor of the six is Green Bay. Play on grass , with a non running QB, with no "name" running back to supplant or beat out in camp. Bell is not an easy player to evaluate. I'm very concerned about the reports he's significantly heavier now than he's suppossed to be. (260lbs versus playing weight of 225)

This doesn't make a lot of sense unless Roseman is legitimately getting the band back together in Philadelphia. I can't see McCoy being shipped anywhere but back to Philly and that's only happening if Philly and McCoy want that to happen.

He's a great athlete who has difficulty in reading a football playbook and implementing the play on the field. In college, he pretty much just tackled whoever had the ball and let his athleticism do the work. In the NFL, he had to learn "assignments" and "zones" and IMO, that's why he's disappointed. That's why sometimes you take the better football player over the better athlete. It's easier to make a professional football player more athletic in the NFL than it is to make the athlete a professional football player.

I gave up cable news after the 2016 election. Wikipedia has saved me hundreds of dollars and plenty of time in regards to movies. I can just read the story under "plot." 9 out of 10 times it's a movie filled with plot devices I've seen many times before.

1. He's not *that* good. 2. Raiders are booking their rooms in cap purgatory in Las Vegas Year #2. I foresee them hoodwinking all their new fans into season tickets and PSLs with a dazzling year one in the new stadium and then having to tear it all down shortly thereafter.

Vince Young is an example of where coasting on talent and never learning the lessons of failure as a child, teen and young adult can absolutely murder you in your adult life.

IMO, I'd be surprised if he passed a physical. His neck injury was pretty signficant.

I'm sure somebody will... to get a leg up on the 2024 race and establish themselves as the alpha candidate of the DNC going forward. It just won't be senior citizens Joe Biden or Hilary Clinton. (I have no idea why Bernie bothers.) Really when you think about it, guys like Biden and Sanders are one term Presidents even if elected. Biden would be 82 and Sanders would be 83 in 2024 at the end of their terms.

I'd be surprised as well. 2020 is looking a lot like 1996 and neither Clinton or Biden want to play the sacrificial Bob Dole role. I think both camps also see the DNC as being a complete mess at the moment. Perez has no gravitas or authority to control the Democrat message or the number of candidates out there saying stuff just to get attention. It's a complete shitshow. FWIW, I think the Democrats (and Washington generally) have been tipped off that the Mueller report isn't going to say what they wanted it to say.

If you liked what Vontae Davis did, sure.

TJ Hockenson IMO he's the Zach Ertz for Josh Allen and it's very hard to screw up TE from Iowa. Fant is likely the better athlete but Hockenson is the better football player. (Assumes we hit on some OL in free agency)

Williams looks like Travis Kelce to me - a C that'll anchor a line for a decade plus. Taylor to me looks like a good, possibly great tackle but an elite guard.
