I downloaded Magnus' free chess app. recently. You can simulate playing him at different ages. I hadn't played in years and I have only used it a few times. His 14 old self beat me pretty easily about 5 times in a row so I started lower and beat him when he was 8☺ I have won one game so far against 10 yr old Magnus out of 7. Feels good to play chess again and exercise my brain in that way.

For Calvin Ridley, yes. Slow

Oliver or Wilkins in the first.

That would be my ideal, #15 and 2 2nd rounders. DT OT WR TE in the first 3 rounds in whatever order they fall.

good list. I forgot to list Winovich, the guy is incredibly athletic for his size and goes all out. wonder if he makes it to the 4th, if so the Bills should snag him. He was incredible the year before last when he was healthy, would be psyched if they got him.

I can imagine that being really annoying.

I just figured out that if you tap on the plate it gives you the answer. Evidently if you are not color blind you won't see anything on plates 14 and 15. I am extremely nearsighted but not color blind at all.

I could see all the numbers and the squiggly lines but what were plates 14 and 15 about. I could differentiate colors but couldn't make out any particular numbers on those two.

Metcalf is as agile as a 300 lb lineman. His 3 cone and shuttle times were incredibly awful, bottom 5 percentile of wrs. There were literally 300+ lb linemen more agile than him. Not to mention he is not great at catching the ball. He is a blazing fast workout warrior. Meager production in college, AJ Brown outproduced him by a huge margin. I hope the Bills stay away.

I get that, I was looking for less obvious gems. On that note I add G Connor McGovern RB Miles Sanders G Chris Lindstrom OT Caleb McGary S Marquise Blair EDGE Maxx Crosby CB Rock Ya-Sin

I agree, 2 or 3 them might be gone by end of the 3rd. I was trying for rounds 4 thru 7 but it is obviously an inexact science.

I expect these guys to go in rounds 4 through 7 and outperform their draft position. RB Justice Hill OT William Sweet WR Anthony Johnson QB Brett Rypien WR Gary Jennings Jr WR Dillon Mitchell EDGE Jaylon Ferguson G Ben Powers CB Iman Marshall TE Caleb Wilson DI Armon Watts CB Tim Harris LB Ben Burr-Kirvin EDGE Oshane Ximines RB David Montgomery TE Josh Oliver OT Yodney Cajuste RB Bryce Love

Ford had 13 more QB pressures than Clark with the same amount of sacks. His pass rushing and his overall grade were higher as well.

team moving up pays a premium. 23 to 9 will cost them both 2nd rnd picks straight up, 1470 to get 1350. 9% premium.

I am merely commenting on the consensus among analysts, sportswriters pundits etc. regarding the trade. Personally I am glad it wasn't the Bills. Hughes and Zo both graded higher than Clark on PFF for whatever its worth. Here is their top players for last season. https://www.profootballfocus.com/news/pro-the-top-101-players-from-the-2018-nfl-season Hughes Zo and Hyde made the list. Houston and Ford both did as well. Clark not on it.

The Chiefs got fleeced by Seattle seems to be the consensus grade for this trade.

Houston and Ford combined signed for about the same amount as Clark with less guaranteed money. Not everyone thinks Clark is a better player than Ford. One GM said that comparing Clark to Ford was like comparing Flacco to Mahomes. Here's another take: Now, there are worse ways to spend cap space, but this deal didn’t happen in a vacuum. The reason Kansas City was in need of a pass rusher in the first place was its decisions to trade pending free agent Dee Ford to San Francisco for a second-round pick and let the aging-but-still-productive Justin Houston go to Indianapolis for a modest deal. In all, Ford and Houston signed for seven years, $110 million, including $51.8 million in guaranteed money, with their new teams. That’s two ultra-productive players for, essentially, the price of Clark. Now, you might be thinking that the Chiefs defense was awful last year and the biggest culprit in all of their losses, and you’d be correct. But that had little to do with Houston and Ford, who combined for 125 QB pressures. No other teammates combined for more. Clark managed an impressive 64 on his own, which is 16 more than Houston tallied but 13 fewer than Ford’s total. Pro Football Focus graded Ford as the best pass rusher in 2018. Houston ranked fifth. Clark ranked outside the top-20.

I have a strong feeling they are going to regret that.

Now he has a torn labrum

I know, that's the name I remember it by as well, my brother called it the hysterical society.

He is 258 lbs. Ran sub 4.6 40, 4th among EDGE, 3rd in 3 cone and first in 20 yd shuttle. Impressive athlete for his size.

The Tangie is delicious. I love living in Oregon, some of the best beer and herb in the country if not the world. I definitely won't say the best pizza, but that DeFino looks pretty tasty as well.

I will be kicking back in my easy chair, cracking open a cold beer and watching it all unfold.
