    With age, wear, pounding and exposure to the elements iron gets rusty and brittle...  maybe it’s time to use a diamond analogy? 

     

    I always thought the actual phrase was "steel sharpens steel".... Metallurgically speaking, McD is in a different age... Which may be why he gravitates toward older backs.

    4 dominant years in his career and your putting him up with the best of all time, sorry just can't do it with that small of a window of being dominant.

     

    The rings help... But other than that, Gronk was clutch all day... Got you whatever you needed, whenever you needed it.  Guy is a total bust... -HOF bust, that is.

  3. Watching the combine and listening to KW drop gems for young D-linemen entering the pro's gave me nightmares.

     

    I got visions of him coaching D-line for the Colts, Raiders or Dolphins... He knows the job SO well...

     

    I think I'd be happier with KW on the staff sooner rather than later.

    No, not in the least.

     

    What difference does it make the last time Miami drafted a QB in the top 5?   When was the last time the Bills drafted a QB in the top 10 before last year?  (Answer:  never)

    Did that "shock the world"?   No, because the Bills badly needed a QB just like Miami does now.

     

    Everyone and their mother knew the Bills were taking a QB in '18... OBD pretty much telegraphed that outcome... I think people were very shocked at WHICH Josh got taken.

     

    Still, within the context of many expecting Miami to go full re-build or "tank for Tua in '20"... Miami landing Kyler would be a shocking development.  -JMO.

    Perk has gotten looks from NBA scouts along with Massenberg. He might be busy Sundays.

     

    Perhaps with yardwork.. Even if he does make an NFL PS, there are still long odds he'll be called up to an active roster.

     

    There are just a few pro teams that bet measurably on TE's... Colts could be a nice spot to develop... Eagles.... Seahawks...

     

    Might just want to stick to hoops... NFL TE is a tough market for those who are good at it, never mind those who aren't.

    Friend of yours?

     

    I like his story.  I also think he's a damn good blocker.

    The Saints had him on their practice squad for the 2015 season and then the active roster to start the 2016 season.  They released him after a few games.

     

    Only to be claimed off waivers the next day by CAR... (he didn't clear waivers as Saints thought he would.)

     

    Since then he's played in 39 games for the Panthers who, recalling the Saints error, locked him up to a 2-year deal before he could enter free agency in '19.

    He's strictly a "reliable" blocking TE at this point.  I wouldn't say the Bills missed-out on a whole lot.

     

    I can't say how much they missed, but they sure as hell missed something...  You cut a non-football player after a tryout period and that's supposed to be "the end."

     

    Clearly with Manhertz, it wasn't... Someone turned that potential into real value.
