    My buddy is a HS coach and goes to some of the  practices and he was there on Thursday or Friday last week, he said he looks like Randy moss and is going to be the best osu WR in history. Oh ok haha. He’s typically pretty jaded and even on the negative side sometimes so I asked him what he thought about Marv when he first saw him as a Freshman in practice to compare, and he said he thought marv looked different, a 1st rd pick for sure.  But Jeremiah smith is like a faster version of him with a bigger catch radius and vertical propensity to just jump up and moss defenders which Marv didn’t really do. So…

    Marvin Harrison Jr is extremely talented but he is nowhere near one of the top five or 10 wide receivers I've seen in college 

     

    Super good.. but the media is making him out to be a talent that we've never seen 

     

    Like he's on a pedestal all his own... But there's a few wide receivers in this class who are not that far off from him 

     

    He's honestly not even the prospect Sammy Watkins was coming out... And look how that panned out

    Complete lack of judgment in those who want to add Brown to the mix in order to get the WR they covet. Who is going to plausibly replace him in the lineup? The Bills invested the time to develop him, and now they should what, put La'el Collins in there to replace him? Van Demark did not look good on the right side in the snaps he took at RT. 

     

    I've yet to hear an intelligent reply to these concerns from the enthusiasts for pay any price to get a top 3 WR.

    Agreed... Van demark is another very good athlete who was very raw 

     

    He needed two or three years of development at least... Which a lot of NFL teams don't have the patience for... The bills on the other hand have shown they will give players two plus years of development 

     

    But as you said I think he is built for the left side not the right... And putting in Collins for Brown or trading brown would be 3 years of hard development gone to waste 

     

    When he's finally turning a corner 

     

    He has height , length , he has a boxer straight to engage and reroute pass rushers... He is a Mauler in the run game... He could run block zone or man schemes and he is athletic enough to learn pass protection with reps

     

    I know it's hard developing linemen over two or three or four years... But he could potentially be a perennial pro bowler and Future all pro with his traits

     

    If anything you resign him now to a four or five-year deal way cheaper before he really ascends... Which I will predict is this year

    Spencer Brown was a whipping boy until last year. Most of us wanted an upgrade at RT.  It’s possible Joe Schoen would have a value of a 3rd round pick on Spencer Brown

    Offensive line is the hardest position to develop in the modern NFL.. there is a complete lack of NFL quality lineman coming from college to the pros compared to 20 years ago 

     

    The schemes colleges run make it harder to transition to the NFL game... It generally takes two three four years for a non Blue Chip lineman to get it

     

    Spencer also lost a year of football in college due to covid... And battled through injuries in the pros early in his career which hampered development 

     

    Physically he has every single thing you want... Including a strong work ethic 

     

    He might not peek till he is 29 or 30... But he looks like a guy who could be a future All pro due to his traits which is why you definitely don't give up on him 

     

    he can definitely be Josh's bookend right tackle because he has a mean streak and protects Josh.. and he's a phenomenal athlete who can move the pocket with Josh

    I know nothing about the Hauschka thing but Tre Hendrickson has absolutely gone for Allen's legs with dirtbag moves, not just once, but at least twice.

     Anderson on the Jets years ago, after a blocked fg attempt 

     

    Hauschka Was trotting off the field... Not part of the play 

     

    And Anderson blind side blew him up... Injured him and hauschka was never the same

    I don’t know. There has been so much recruiting “compression” these days with the transfer portal. And highly recruited kids now don’t want to stay to develop, and then don’t develop at all, and then have to go down a level.

     

    For example, I think guys like Goodine and Braswell were well recruited by us and they ended up at some middling schools. 

     

    On the flip side and maybe more likely, It wouldn’t surprise me that you could get grad transfers from a MAAC school who Syracuse would be after. Similar to a guy like Cam Spencer. Patriot league player to star player on UConn as a 24-year old grad transfer. 
     

    Goodine and braswell couldn't get a scholarship from Syracuse in 2005 

     

    That's my point... The sanctions hurt Syracuse recruiting 

     

    We went from getting top 70-80 recruits... To top 300 recruits... Goodine and braswell were 4-5th options... Not number one high priority recruits

     

    Goodine should have never been in an su uniform... That's why he ended up at Fairfield 

     

    I know the landscape is changing.. but Syracuse recruiting was very hampered during the sanctions... We were not getting the same type of basketball player we were getting for the last 40 years 

     

    And it's going back in the right direction now.. with legitimate four and five-star recruits 

     

    Goodine was basically a three-star guy which is not Syracuse caliber

     

    We get top 100 high major four-star guys

    Wow—Onuwaku, Hart, and Blackwell!  That is awesome that he is getting all these Cuse alumni! 

     

    I bet we will see Syracuse players looking for more PT transferring to Siena (maybe vice versa too)— a mini-pipeline!

    It would have to be our worst of the worst like Peter carey

     

    If we have recruits going to that conference then we're not recruiting good enough 

     

    If we have recruits leaving... At least if they're going to duke like maliq it shows we're getting the right guys 

     

    If we have a bunch of transfers going to sienna it shows that we're recruiting mid major guys lol

    **** Warning Long Post ****

     

    It's draft week! So here, finally, are my tape evaluations of the top Quarterbacks in the year's NFL Draft. I have only done the top 6 guys this year. I think I said last year it was too much SEC when watching the film... this year it was a lot of PAC 12! Roll on re-alignment!!

     

    A reminder of my process for those who are new before we begin: 

     

    1. My process is four step as every year:

    - Try to identify the runners and riders at Quarterback the summer before;

    - Try and watch each at least twice in live game action on tv by mid season;

    - Film review in the early part of the year. For Quarterbacks I set the minimum number of games watched at 5;

     

    2. I try and balance the games I watch back in the evaluation phase for each prospect. I want to see them at their best and their worst in so far as is possible and against a range of opposition where possible.  

     

    3. My grades for each are against an objective scale…. They are not predictions of where players should go in the draft. I have to grade them not only against this draft and this year but against an objective scale so that in future years you can benchmark other classes - that might be better or worse - against it. 

     

    Before we start I should say that four of these guys ended up with a LOWER grade after the film review than my indicative grading based on watching them on TV. Only two went up - Bo Nix (slightly) and Michael Penix (more significantly). I think it is a class with a lot of guys who do some things well, but they all have some really noticeable holes when you get into deep film study too. Here goes....

     

    Caleb Williams – USC – Junior

    Games watched: Utah, UCLA (2022) Notre Dame, Colorado, California, Oregon, Stanford (all 2023)

     

    Pros:

    • The first thing that jumps of the film with Williams is his creativity. It is Mahomes like. He sees passing lanes that most Quarterbacks don’t see and is able to manipulate arm angles and flip the ball out when otherwise a play would be dead.
    • He isn’t Justin Fields (who he will be replacing) but he has plus mobility. You are going to be able to use his legs, especially early in his NFL career to buy him some time, make some first downs and get into some rhythm.
    • Excellent fast release and generates good velocity on the ball especially in the intermediate range.
    • Throws core NFL concepts – the slant, the out and the deep post well and with a level of consistency. They are going to be staples of any offense you insert him into as a rookie.
    • Was asked to go through progressions and read the field. Often asked to get to his third or fourth read which will help the mental transition to the NFL.
    • Carries his team. Especially in 2023 his supporting cast wasn’t great. Yes, it affected his production some, but he was still able to lead them back in numerous games where he was asked to throw 35-40 times.

     

    Cons:

    • Starts with the size. Being a 6’1 Quarterback in the NFL these days isn’t the total anomaly it was in the past but it limits your ability to do much under centre stuff and Caleb will need to make his living in shotgun.
    • He holds the ball too long. The downside of asking him to read the full field is some teams I feel like he is too slow getting through progressions and that is where the sacks come from.
    • Holding the ball also contributes to fumbles which in 2023 were a major issue – 16 in 12 starts.
    • Too willing too just fling the ball up when off platform and under pressure. It bit him in the Notre Dame game but there were other examples on film where I thought it could have led to interceptions and he got lucky.
    • I think his deep ball accuracy is questionable. While I like the velocity he generates in the intermediate range his deep balls seem to die a bit at the end.
    • Could sell play action better. I feel like he is very quick to come off the fake. Sometimes that helps him but often it means defenders haven’t fully committed to playing the run and so passing windows aren’t fully open.

     

    Conclusion: Caleb Williams is the kind of playmaker first, Quarterback second that we have seen increasingly become the norm in the NFL over the past 7 or 8 years. The natural creativity is going to be attractive to a team like the Bears who still have some issues up front and will benefit from a Quarterback that doesn’t need to be comfortable to thrive but his long-term ceiling will depend on him improving his processing and doing the routine with greater consistency. Mid first round grade.

     

     

    Drake Maye – North Carolina – Redshirt Sophomore

    Games watched: Clemson, Pittsburgh (2022); Clemson, Miami, Duke, South Carolina (all 2023)

     

    Pros:

    • Prototypical size and play style and aged 21 there remains room for him to grow and improve.
    • Live arm, plenty of pop on it and makes you defend all areas of the field.
    • I like that he keeps his eyes downfield even when things get messy in the pocket. He does have issues under pressure, which I will come onto, but he doesn’t look down at the rush he keeps seeking options.
    • Good ball placement on back shoulder throws and throws the fade well.
    • Love the trajectory he gets on downfield throws, especially the go route. His ball has a lovely arc and drops in the bucket consistently.
    • Not going to be a dual threat style weapon but has enough mobility to get on the move outside the pocket and pick up some yards on scramble drills.

     

    Cons:

    • His arm angle definitely gets impacted by pressure and as a result he has a tendency to get low in those scenarios leading to balls hitting the ground and batted balls.
    • Sixteen interceptions in two seasons and the vast majority are down to decision making. Can get reckless at inopportune moments and in game scenarios that don’t call for it.
    • That recklessness also leads to him taking too many chances into double and even triple coverage especially to Tez Walker who he has a tendency to lock onto as his primary target. 
    • His release is inefficient and elongated. I worry that will give NFL edge rushers a lot of chances to knock the ball out during the wind up.
    • The downside of him keeping his eyes downfield so well is that he occasionally walks into sacks in the pocket. His footwork tends to get sloppy when he feels the outside rush and he creates his own problems at times.
    • Regressed in 2023. His 2022 film is better and shows more consistency. Got to wonder if that is teams cottoning on to some of his tendencies.

     

    Conclusion: Drake Maye is the most conventional early round Quarterback of the group and there are flashes of elite level Quarterback play. He is also one of the youngest in this class with the most room to grow. He makes big boy NFL throws with ease at times but there is a recklessness and a rawness that you are going to have to be able to live with early while he continues to mature. He will need very skilled handling by Head Coach and OC to develop him into what they hope he can become. Behind a bad line and without weapons early it could get really messy. Late first round grade.

     

     

    Jayden Daniels – LSU – Senior

    Games watched: Alabama, Florida State (2022); Alabama, Florida, Army, Missouri (all 2023)

     

    Pros:

    • Elite athlete, going to be a genuine dual threat Quarterback at the NFL level. There are going to be opportunities for him as a passer at the next level that are created by defensive coordinators game planning to take his legs away.
    • Excellent thrower on the move. When you roll him out create a half field read and also give him the option to keep it he is deadly.
    • I love him pre-snap. Sets and adjusts protections, understands what he sees and is mentally as advanced as any Quarterback in the class.
    • Throws with anticipation, especially against zone defense. Recognises when his receivers will hit the soft spot in the zone and gets the ball there with an opportunity for yards after the catch.
    • Good accuracy in the middle of the field where he gets the ball in front of his receivers without creating lots of opportunities for negative plays.
    • Has definitely works on his footwork and it was improved in 2023 even over and above 2022. Much more consistent and much more repeatable and it has led to improved mechanics in the pocket.

     

    Cons:

    • He is very thin. His frame is wiry both top and bottom half and he looks slight even against college athletes. His ability to hold up to the physicality of the NFL is a legit question.
    • His arm is only okay. He has enough to get by but the velocity is average and that affects his ability to challenge tight windows, especially where faced with man coverage looks. 
    • Possibly linked to his arm but he has a tendency to leave his deep balls short, making receivers come back to them and giving defensive backs a chance to get back into the play.
    • Also potentially linked to the arm limitations but his accuracy dips significantly outside the numbers, even in the short game – shallow outs, dump offs, and throws to the flat.
    • Think he can lock onto targets. The interception he threw vs Alabama was created by Dallas Turner reading his eyes and getting his hands into the passing lane and I think he could do more to manipulate defenses with his eyes.
    • Needs to speed up the processor at times. When the ball comes out on time he looks a much better Quarterback, especially when projecting to the pro level. When he holds it uncertainty creeps into his game.

     

    Conclusion: I know this is hardly an original take but there is a lot of Lamar Jackson about Jayden Daniels. He has the elite dual threat ability and is much more comfortable throwing between the numbers than he is outside them. He doesn’t have Lamar’s arm and that would seem to lower the ceiling but he is more advanced between the ears than Jackson was coming out. Mid second round grade.

     

     

    Michael Penix – Washington – Senior

    Games watched: Stanford, UCLA (both 2022); Oregon, Michigan, Texas, California, Tulsa (all 2023)

     

    Pros:

    • The most natural pocket passer in the class, Penix has great feel for where pressure is coming from and is able to move his feet to slide up and to the side and give himself the best window to make a throw.
    • He is also the most aggressive passer in the class for me. Nobody is willing to give his wide receivers a chance to go and make a play as much as Michael Penix. He is willing to attack downfield against man and zone.
    • When going downfield against zone coverage shows good awareness and understands the weak spots in cover 3 and cover 2.
    • Good velocity on his ball and huge hands that help him control his spiral in even in weather.
    • Sets and adjusts his own protections. Understands how defenses are attacking him and is good at sliding his blocking towards the pressure.
    • Good touch and placement in the short game, gives his playmakers the chance to make yards after the catch.

     

    Cons:

    • An older prospect at age 24 who suffered two ACL injuries in his time at Indiana before transferring. That is definitely going to make teams wary.
    • The aggressive nature of his game means he is going to throw picks – especially when you consider the talent advantage he had at wide receiver in Washington which won’t necessarily be the case in the NFL.
    • There is a bit of sloppiness in his footwork. The backfoot has a bit of a tendency to come up and wave around. I think he is a bit of an arm thrower and he could improve his consistency if he tidies up the base. 
    • If you can move him off the spot his effectiveness really suffers. He is limited athletically and you will need to have a solid line in front of him.
    • Equally when the play breaks down I feel like he gets flustered rather than staying with it. I felt in the National Championship game he missed some opportunities where if he stayed patient there were scramble drill plays to be made.
    • He’s a lefty. I know that shouldn’t matter but it is such a rarity at the NFL level and I just feel like it adds a complexity to the way you block and we have seen with Tua in Miami the challenges they have had getting the offensive line right.  

     

    Conclusion: I feel like throw back 20 years and Penix is probably a first round grade. It is a bit of a sign of how the NFL has changed that teams value that mobility and ability to operate out of structure so much more these days. I think he has one of the higher floors among the guys in the draft but the ceiling is probably lower. He needs a good offensive line and a vertical passing scheme but he has a chance to be a really solid starter. Early second round grade.

     

     

    Bo Nix – Oregon – Senior

    Games watched: Georgia, Utah, UCLA (all 2022); Colorado, Washington, USC, Utah (all 2023)

     

    Pros:

    • Nix is experienced. He will be a 24 year old rookie and has the most starts ever for a Quarterback at the FBS level and his best season was his last one which suggests he may still be on the upswing. 
    • I think he has sufficient arm and a fast release. His throwing motion is very repeatable and it allows him to be pretty consistent with his accuracy – especially over the middle – and get the ball to his playmakers.
    • I like him in the quick game. If you want to run 3 step drop, ball out, pitch and catch type concepts then Bo Nix is your guy.
    • Love where he places the ball on back shoulder throws. He is very consistent at putting it where a defender cannot make a play on the ball without coming through the receiver first. He generated some flags in college, he will benefit from even more in the NFL.
    • Mobility. He is a really good athlete who will be able to make plays outside the pocket with his legs and his arm and he does a good job creating when the play breaks down.
    • Demonstrates decent recognition pre-snap and identifies mismatches well (even if at Oregon he benefitted from plenty of them).

     

    Cons:

    • He is 24 years old and there are still areas of his game that require development – is that a risk you want to take with a 24 year old?
    • Still not a quick processor. Oregon’s offense designed a bunch of wide open receivers and single defender reads. In the NFL your Quarterback is going to have to drop back on 3rd and long 3 or 4 times a game and read the entire field. I fear Nix will struggle with that.
    • Has a tendency to hesitate and hold the ball if his first read isn’t there or even if the window is tight. If he double clutches in the NFL he will take sacks. If he is late on throws his opponents will end up with the ball.
    • Could be better at knowing when to use touch and when to drive the ball. Unless you have a cannon arm (Nix doesn’t) the trajectory with which he throws outside is too flat and could lead to picks.
    • Footwork gets really fidgety on crunch downs. Often results in misfires where his base is not set.
    • While his 2023 production is undoubtedly excellent there is a lot of YAC from his receivers in those numbers. His ceiling is a distributor in my view, not a playmaker.

     

    Conclusion: I confess I found Nix a hard evaluation because I fear I have a bias against him that goes back to seeing him struggle in the SEC with Auburn. He has definitely improved and I can see a route to him as an NFL starter but I don’t think this is a franchise Quarterback. I think is asked to be a functional game manager you can win some games with Nix but his weaknesses will always rear their head at inopportune moments. Early third round grade.

     

     

    JJ McCarthy – Michigan – Junior

    Games watched: Michigan State, Nebraska (both 2022); Purdue, Ohio State, Alabama, Washington (all 2023).

     

    Pros:

    • Ran a pro-style offense in college, can go under centre, set protections and run conventional play action concepts. Only just turned 21, can still develop.
    • His third down production is very impressive. He doesn’t mind challenging tight windows when he needs to make a play.
    • Mobile, can move, and has some dog in him. Doesn’t give up on plays and is willing to run for first downs and move the chains.
    • My favourite thing about him is the way he stands in the pocket. He wants to play the game from the pocket, he wants to make throws and he is willing to get hit in order to do so.
    • Accurate on slants and curls in the middle of the field, especially when faced with zone coverage and shows awareness of how to lead his receivers into areas where there is YAC potential.
    • Safe decision maker. There are negatives to that too but I think you can trust JJ McCarthy not to be a turnover machine as a rookie in the NFL. Understands game situation and only takes the riskier option on “gotta have it” downs.

     

    Cons:

    • Don’t like his arm and don’t like his release. He has an elongated release arc and he doesn’t have enough drive power or velocity on his football to overcome that.
    • If you can pressure him his accuracy falls off a cliff. Has a tendency to miss high too often too and that is always risky at the NFL level.
    • Very little evidence of him as a full field reader. Possibly a feature of the offense but slow getting through progressions and stays on covered guys too long.
    • Don’t see a lot of wow on his tape. There are functional throws, there are a few nice scrambles outside the pocket but he didn’t get you excited watching him. He is a boring watch.
    • Isn’t super big or athletic and I think his ability to make people miss outside the pocket is going to be limited.
    • Such a low volume passer in college that I don’t know how he’d handle being the face of a franchise, expected to win games on his arm. You are going to need to give him a running game and some decent quick game YAC specialists to have success early.

     

    Conclusion: JJ McCarthy was a winning college Quarterback who was coached to be an efficient game manager and filled that role impressively. The question marks on him are whether he has the physical gifts to elevate anything around him and whether he is mentally advanced enough in terms of understanding and diagnosing what he sees from a defense given how little experience he has as a passer. I think he could start for a team for a period but his long term future in the NFL is as a bridge Quarterback or a solid backup. Late 3rd round grade.

    Caleb Williams is a better prospect than Patrick mahomes coming out... He's a better prospect than fields , Darnold , baker , Drake Maye , stroud , Anthony Richardson, Watson, tua even allen etc

     

    And his processing problems are over exaggerated... He had no problem playing the short quick game at Oklahoma ..  he can process fast... He isn't lost 

     

    When your defense gives up 40 points a game you no longer have the option of dinking and dunking down the field for 60 minutes a game... You must hold the ball to take shots ... You take yourself out of that short rhythm because 12 Play drives don't work... You pass up six yard completions to look for 15 yard completions... That's just what happens

     

    Does he have flaws in his game? Yes... But I saw him live in HS and Oklahoma and USC and when you put him around his QB peers he elevates... I said 3 years ago he would be the number one overall pick... Because he was on a different level... And I still think he is compared to the others in his class..  put him on LSU and watch what he does

     

    And he is the epitome of the modern NFL quarterback.. he's closer to a young Aaron Rodgers arm talent or better deshaun Watson physically.. a guy who can throw from the pocket or launch it while running... He has a live arm and is very mobile 

     

    He also plays stronger from the pocket than Drake Maye and others... He has a very strong step up move which leaves defenders hanging off him

     

    At the end of the day nobody knows how 22-year-old kids will progress over 5 years... It's a combination of luck, work ethic, skill and where you ended up 

     

    David Carr was immensely more talented than his brother... But Derek got the better situation 

     

    But Caleb was a dog day 1 on campus in OU... He had former five star number one high school recruit Spencer rattler... Who will also be getting drafted 

     

    Shook from day one on campus... Cus Caleb was coming for his job... And out playing him in practice and spring ball 

     

    Coming back versus Texas was the icing on the cake and an unbelievable true freshman performance

     

    Every single quarterback right down to Tom Brady and Peyton Manning have flaws...

     

    So yeah it's easy to nitpick 22-year-old kids...

     

    But Caleb certainly isn't your run of the mill quarterback and I've been scouting them a long time .. like I said I saw a number one overall pick in spring ball when he was a freshman 

     

    He has immense talent and has been playing with a lot of pressure on him for years so pressure won't fold him

     

    If anything the bears organization will... It sucks that that is where he's going because they haven't developed a quarterback in 40 years

     

    I think Maye has a lot of talent, is Young... And has the size you want 

     

    But I do not think he is the playmaker that Caleb can be at the next level

    Yes, it is. I'm not going to speculate as to why because that conservation could get heated and go off the rails very quickly, but it is a fact.

    A white corner was also drafted last year... 

     

    It has nothing to do with race... It has to do with how skill sets work better for certain positions and players have been built for college and NFL 

     

    There are lots of talented white football players.. running backs wide receivers safeties lineman QBs... Kids who are being groomed to play these positions from day one... There are just less white kids playing cornerback than safety or WR or QB

     

    You need the right body type and athletic profile for a corner in college or NFL... It's a very rare athletic profile ... And there are white cornerbacks in college... A white corner was also drafted last year

     

    But to make it simple... Most NFL players have been playing since they were 8 years old... Years of practice and grooming... Talk to a football coach who has a son.. From a child.. they were raised to be a quarterback.. or wide receiver... Or a left tackle or linebacker 

     

    My friend's father was a division one tackle at Maryland.. raised his kid to be a left tackle since he could walk... Calisthenics weight training bulking up early... My friend wound up at 6'8-320 lbs 3-year division 1 starter with a cup of tea in the NFL 

     

    he was bred to play football... There's not a lot of White corners being bred from day 1... They are getting groomed at other positions

    Has Byrd been wiped from everyone's memories or something?  2nd round pick for us, led the league in INTs as a rookie free safety after playing CB in college.

    Byrd was your classic zone college corner, with amazing instincts and acceleration 

     

    But won't be able to run with NFL wide receivers at corner 

     

    He was my number one free safety on the board that year

    It's getting to a point where teams should draft nothing but QB, EDGE, WR, or LT in the 1st round. Maybe a 3T if they're really sticking out. The value difference between those positions and the rest is just too high to justify anything else.

    I mean that's the trend that a lot of GMS follow 

     

    It's QB , pass rusher , Left tackle , CB or WR

     

    Those are the premium positions that get big contracts.. that's why you want the fifth year option 

     

    Off ball linebackers and safety's and running backs are valuable... But you can find them well after the first 

     

    Those positions that I listed get fast runs 

  10. Donnie Freeman finishes at number 6 in the ESPN 300 

     

    ******* Stud! And Elijah moore is one of the best shooters in the class 

     

    Lumpkin at center with 7 footers backing him up... We got by a lot of accounts now... One of The best high school power forwards in the country

    That might be his best spot as Zone corner but most people got him moving to Safety as if we didn't him to move him to another position that's something that never hardly works especially for high picks players. I mean we seen Milano make that transaction from Safety to Lber but he's one of few that's done that

    Milano made that transition during his freshman year of college 

     

    He didn't even play one full season as a safety... Just a few appearances as a 210 pound kid

     

    So he was safety size

    Age has nothing to do with your first love ! Matter of fact i see a lot more people that are married multiple times before they actually find their true love & this may be the cases with the Pegs .

     

    Okay i'll give you the deal as far as me saying his "First True Love" but she may be just that his 1 true love /

    I think there's a difference between your true love and first love as u also said 

     

    Why the hell would you be getting down on your knee and proposing to a woman that you didn't love? 

     

    And Terry was married before....

     

    So Kim may be his true love and love of his life but absolutely not his first... Because the dude already loved another wife

     

    That was more my point that he's already been married... So definitely not first love 

     

    Plenty of people find soulmates later in life

    Gambling is destroying everything. Seriously.  I know for many it is fun but I have watched it over the last 6 months rip NC apart. It was made legal just after the suoer bowl and every ad now is for some sports site. Radio stations play sports book shows 24/7.  Most people at work bet. They'll bet $2 on an Australian middle achool tennis match, Saudi Arabian hockey tournament, Kenyan horse race.... Any damn thing.

     

    Their third screens now show live streams of these sports, too.

     

    I just cannot believe how it's going and NC is a fraction of the tax that other states are and what I tried to tell these folks are the taxed winnings they get are based off of winning every bet not just the final net total they're ahead. One guy has won over $2k but only netting about $350 income. He doesn't understand no matter how many times I tell him he is going to owe a lot more than he realizes. 

    I thought I was the only one betting on Saudi Arabian backgammon

    Jontay Porter says he's innocent of any gambling charges.

     

    And he'll give you 3:1 odds that he will be reinstated before the end of the year.

    I'll take the house 😁

    It could be more to do about Kim  & their family than it is actually the Bills or Sabres .

     

    You only go through life once & he has been blessed to be  a NFL team owner but his wife & partner has had a life changing health problem, being there with her should be more of a priority at this point & time in their lives than being engulfed in the activities of owning & operating a NFL franchise every day .

     

    Kim is his first love & i'm sure the Bills are a close second or third . I may be completely off base but this could be something to consider with a move such as this . 

    Terry peg was 20 years old when Kim was born 

     

    I highly doubt she was his first love.. more like I'm 45 and see a hot 25-year-old and I'm rich so why not see what happens 

     

    Terry was basically 40 when she became legal aged... Terry did what a lot of millionaires do and married a much younger woman

    If it helps retain Josh Allen,  I'm all for it.

     

    Next offseason JA17's cap hits start getting so large and his remaining term so short that he can pretty much call his shot on where he wants to play if the Bills can't get him to sign an extension.

     

    His home state of California.........with offensive geniuses McVay and Shanahan.........and the promise of not having to face Mahomes in the playoffs until a Super Bowl........that would have to be very enticing.

     

    Bills need to be ALL ABOUT supporting Josh Allen.   The hope of Belichick making a difference might be enough to tip the scales if they are otherwise all-in on giving Allen weapons.

    Josh Allen would be the biggest fraud ever 

     

    Literally since day one before he ever stepped onto an NFL field he said he wanted to play with one franchise forever ... Hid biggest thing is loyalty 

     

    And talks about how much he loves Buffalo... The children's hospital is named in honor of his grandmother 

     

    It's one thing if he leaves when he's 37... Leaving in his prime... He would have a smear campaign against him 

     

    And they would probably drag up every single little incident that ever happened... And Josh certainly doesn't want to go through the ringer.. and they would drag him through it because they are so petty 

     

    You're talking about the face of an entire city... Before Tom Brady the Patriots were not a proud franchise 

     

    The Buffalo Bills on the other hand... And our fan base...

    But it's not accredited.

    I thought way back in the day, they replaced YHWH (YaWeh sounding, meaning Jehovah) with Adonai... but that was back when the Bible was being written, I think.

    Possibly been a while... 

     

    I know YHWH was the unspeakable name

    Having been raised in the Jewish faith this name never fails to crack me up.  "Adonai" is Hebrew for "God" and religious Jews are so careful of observing the commandment of not taking God's name in vain, they actually won't say this word unless engaged in formal prayer.  In other cases they substitute the word Hashem which means "the name."

     

    I can't wait until he catches a Hail Mary pass.

    I thought adonai was "my Lord" 

     

    And the Hebrews replaced the word, That can never be uttered..  the true name of the Lord... With Adonai 

     

    And used adonai in synagogue ritual

    As to the last, didn't hear it.  And I was listening.

     

    Called him his brother, said he extended a hand to him when he joined the team, didn't say anything about him as a QB

     

    I read your post, rightly or wrongly, as saying Diggs still believed in Josh as his QB and it was the Bills initiative to be shopping him.

     

    My point is from what others have said about seeking permission to seek a trade, it was Diggs who wanted out and asked the Bills if he could have his people shop him.  He didn't believe in Josh as his QB or in the Bills organization as a Championship-caliber organization any more, and he wanted to seek greener pastures.

     

    Who knows?

     

    The bottom line is that Diggs has moved on, and the Bills have moved on.  

     

    I have moved on, from Ghost (Gabe Davis dog) to Penny (Khalil Shakir's dog)

    Football is a business 

     

    It is what it is .. I certainly won't lose any sleep over it 

     

    And I think Khalil is a very talented young man

    Davis is mostly PF. Can probably fill in a little at C or SF if needed. He was the starting C for Delaware last year. 

    Yeah but in a smaller league right? He's 6'7..

     

    That could certainly fly in a mid major.. but I don't think he could play center in the ACC
