i paid attention to him when he was younger. he was the one who made Klein obsolete. i didn't like him that much over Klein at the time but Thompson has range and versatility. Thompsons cieling was much higher so as a rookie he got the start.
he's quick downhill, he doesn't excel in traffic to collapse the pocket however. but he can move around the field as good as any depth linebacker.
i think this is a solid addition to the team and look forward to what he can bring. Spector is trade bait.
Trade for what? A swap of 2028 conditional 7ths?
-
He basically hasn't played since 2022, so hopefully he's well rested?

14 Ohio State players were chosen in the 2025 draft alone
And that tied an all-time record for the school's 135 year football history, and represents 20.5% of all active OSU players in the NFL. Best not to use statistical extremes to make your point.

You’re right, but I said “starting lineup”. I think most guys in the starting lineup of elite teams at least get a chance in one of the various pro leagues. I wasn’t necessarily referring to the entire roster.
I didn't, and you changed a variable to "starting" to try to disprove my point. Even using your preferred metric, 82% of Ohio State's starting lineup is future salesman or Amazon delivery drivers. Maybe that's actually worse than 95% of the entire roster.
1 hour ago, SirAndrew said:I think most guys in the starting lineup of elite teams at least get a chance in one of the various pro leagues.
And that would be an incorrect thing to think. 7 total Ohio State players "got a chance" in the NFL. (4 on active roster). None had their rights drafted by the UFL. Steele Chambers (what a name), is the lone member of the Ohio State 2024 class currently in the UFL. That's 5 players across two leagues.

I expect him to be released to make room for Heocht and Ogunjobi after week 6.

The starting lineups of elite college teams are definitely not 95% future salesmen. The majority of Ohio State starters are going to see the NFL in some capacity, and the rest will be in the CFL, or the UFL.
I agree, a guy like Kyle McCord who couldn’t cut it at Ohio State in 2023 would probably be the best UFL QB. There are a lot of college teams that have better QB play than anyone in the UFL. NFL rosters often carry up to three QB’s. The NFL is taking most of the QB talent, that leaves the UFL with nothing at the position.
Ohio State has 4 players from their 2024 roster currently on active NFL rosters. They had 105 players on their roster. 96.2 percent of them are not on active rosters. I'll listen to an argument that some of that 96% are construction workers instead of salesman, but that's closer than being NFL players.

Ohio State, Georgia, Michigan, etc would destroy any of these teams.
positively ridiculous. The worst UFL team would blow out Ohio State. Most college teams are made up of 95% future salesman. At least these guys are playing pro ball.

I will never understand people advocating illegal streams.
For some reason, it being media makes it pallatable for people to say things like like this. But most of us would never say “oh that restaurant meal was expensive - but there are ways to skip out the door before paying without the waitress knowing”.
Why not just straight up say “i’m a thief”?
I'm a thief. My morals aren't your morals.

The Bills and the Cowboys are pretty much the same team right now. Strong regular season teams. Not sure how we have the ego to talk down to them.
They played without their starting QB last year and still were respectable. They've gone 12-5 each of the last 3 seasons with Dak under center. We don't want to start comparing Lombardi's with them either.-

I just find it interesting that per their own stats and rankings he is higher than what they chose to rate him.
It's Top 32 for 2025, not the previous two years. There are always up and comers and guys that slip down a little. It's hard to argue that any of the guys above him don't deserve to be.

There's also the "I take so much juice at once and so many masking agents I get confused so I just let my trainer take care of it and pray he doesn't screw up" approach. Either way, you look a hell of a lot better if you take full responsibility for it imo. Especially when there's no qualifiers in front of that statement.
I feel like this is a thing parents tell their kids for some reason that has absolutely no evidence of being true in reality. From every example I've seen both those directly involving me directly and those involving others, admitting guilt almost never proves to be a beneficial choice. Not only do you guarantee punishment, but your public perception is damaged forever. Not once in my entire life have I ever heard a person say, well, he [did poorly perceived thing], but because he admitted it I'll stand in his corner.
Deflect, Deny, Deflect to the bitter end unless you're getting a hell of a deal to do otherwise. When you refuse to admit guilt, you get several benefits. 1. You can potentially evade punishment. 2. some people will believe you or will be skeptical enough to not want you crucified for it, and related to that, your legacy is nowhere near as stained as if you admit it in the first place which can have sever implications both reputational and financial.-

Then he's the dumbest guy in the NFL and shouldn't be on the roster for that reason.
Everyone who has gotten caught the past 10 years has claimed this. For this reason, it's just not a credible defense. No player would simply take something some trainer or what not handed him and said, "don't worry, it's ok". Most of these guys can read, so, if they were really not sure what was in the drugs they were given, they could easily find out. Why would they leave their fate in the hands of some pusher? Accepting responsibility isn't accomplished by blaming someone else (who is this person he's blaming anyway?).
It's just not believable he didn't know what he put in his body. Zero point zero chance.
I don't think anyone is making the argument they don't know that they're playing to the limit and a little past it with PEDs. That's not really the issue here.
It's not about not taking banned substances, it's about not taking too much so you don't get popped. These guys aren't dosing out their own supplements. They have professionals for that, and I fully believe they're capable of screwing up, probably by misjudging what a player's test result will grade on a given day as a result of getting a little too risky with the program.-

I am 100% rooting for him. I know he has the height, weight and speed. But I look at him and think "likely to be scheme sound." No, please! I want to look at him and say "geez, I would sure hate to be a running back and see that animal flying downhill at me. Snot flying, drool dripping, that dude is going to wreck someone." I want to think - wide receiver over the middle? Not worried about it, Bishop will get there and lay the MoFo out. They may complete one, but it will be VERY expensive for them.
Let me reassure you, that's not who Cole Bishop has ever been. That player also doesn't really exist in the NFL anymore unless the guy you want is Taylor Rapp.

I remember in high school trying desperately to gain weight for baseball. I worked my tail off. I just could not gained weight. I was way too active.
I went to my doctor because my parents made me, to see which weight gain supplement and creatine he would recommend to help me add weight with my lifting routine. He was a younger doctor and a former college athlete, he looked right at me and said never put that stuff in your body, ever especially the creatine. That was that.
he really didn’t appreciate my joke about buying the one called the Russian bear at GNC which was 4000 calories per shake. That was a real product.
anyway, multiple high school friends took both and made huge gains. Meanwhile my 5”10 skinny azz worked like a dog to get to 160 pounds.
that was a 90’s thing and the current thing is testosterone products. Anything that advertises like four times on an hour on sports radio stations should be avoided at all costs.
anyway, hoecht is just a guy and he is going to have a hard time living down the ped thing without an abnormally high productive season.
So your cautionary tale is that you didn't take it and now you're here posting on a message board instead of participating in OTAs?
I don't think that more than a very small handful of people even care right now that Hoecht got popped. I sure don't. Whether he has an all-pro season or a totally forgettable one, no one will be talking about this at the end of the season. Every pro athlete is on performance enhancing supplements of some sort. It's all just a matter of gaming specific product and biochemistry levels to not go over certain thresholds. -

I still can't believe we gave a decent contract to a guy who we know just got popped for juicing
Who cares? Let them all juice as long as they're only suspended for meaningless games. We could use a prime Brian Cushing, Clay Matthews, Shawn Merriman on this squad.

I mean, it's very disappointing, but predictable.
I'd honestly prefer he doesn't even dress for 7 months. Stay in the weight room, do some yoga, take a cruise to Antarctica and adjust to the climate etc. We need the guy for 3-4 games. I have no interest in watching him play in September, October, November, or even December.-

Rapp saved us so many TDs and games last year by never giving up on plays. The guy is one of the only people we had that plays with general aggression. He was probably my favorite player on the miserable Defense and was never appreciated even by our own fans. Safety WAS a problem last year but it was the other guy.
Hamlin was quite a bit better in coverage.

On one hand it would be a great time to become a fan, but on the other it likely means a lifetime of disappointment after it's over. I'm skeptical we'll remain a powerhouse franchise into the future as that's typically reserved for big markets or at least teams with really strong pedigree like the Steelers/Packers.
My first memory of the Bills was the 1990 AFC Championship Game I attended a little after my 3rd birthday. I went because my mom was sick and couldn't go. I must've been a fan already, but I don't really remember it. I remember SB 25 mostly in flashes, but have stronger memories of the following year and was full on by SB 27. -

By my count, at least 4 rookie receivers clearly had better rookie seasons than the greatest WR prospect of modern times…hell, if he hadn’t gotten hurt, Keon Coleman would have been breathing down his neck. 🤣🤣🤣
And?
13 hours ago, buffblue said:This is not incorrect in any way. Harrison was great at OSU.
But let's not act like he doesn't have holes in his game. He is nowhere near the complete prospect that was sold. Receiver is perhaps the easiest position in the modern NFL to have a big impact as a rookie, and Harrison lagged behind many of his contemporaries that were picked later than him.
If he doesn't take a big step forward MHJ should rightfully start to draw Kyle Pitts level of scrutiny.
Easiest? It's the exact opposite. the college and NFL game is vastly different for WRs as they're asked to run more complete route trees, play against all-american level CBs every single snap, and learn to get two feet down.
You must be thinking of RB.-

Would you rather $ or Lombardi?

$500 is absolutely nothing, so Super Bowl for sure. $5k, $10k same thing.
That said, I've gotten so conditioned to them not winning it, that I might as well have the money. It would have to be enough to get something decently cool though. I'd say $100k, but if you twist my arm, I'd probably take less.
