  1. I think he's one of the weakest about, and a product of the obsession with trying to find the next Romo amongst recent players. He's done a lot better as a studio analyst when I've seen him than as a commentator and in a couple of years that'll be his future
  2. He might not have been the 4th if it was possible. For all we know he could have been the lowest priority to protect
  3. Simple. Because most Chiefs fans who want a Mahomes jersey will already have one. Mac Jones is new
  4. I think it's better to put them in tiers than rankings. There is a clear top tier of Reid and Belichek and a 2nd of 7 or 8 that McDermott falls in.
  5. I think Gilliam is combined TE3 / FB1 I think we'll only keep 2 TEs. And keep Gilliam instead as a utility player as short yardage back, FB and TE3 in practice.
  6. No. Because if he signs next year a starter you're getting a 3rd or 4th as a comp pick anyway Grow up.
  7. That's what I dont get, aside from underdog feel good story redemption from the CFL what has Duke Williams actually done to merit even sticking around the team as long as he has done?
  8. I think so. They look like guys who weren't going to be on the 53 but could legimately get a job elsewhere
  9. The Bills took a chance of him from the CFL when no other team did. They then gave him repeated chances, and gave him multiple long stints on the practice squad to develop and prove himself. He got far more of a chance than most do in those circumstances.
  10. I don't think so, too much talent ahead of him at WR in Lenoir and Gentry
  11. Bobby Hart Duke Williams Brandon Powell Caleb Benenoch Syrus Tuitele The bottom of the roster OL isn't good enough so may as well get rid. Williams has very little upside and way too much competition ahead of him, let him try and get a few weeks in camp to catch on elsewhere and Powell just takes away return reps from Mckenzie and Stephenson I think you keep Fromm until final cuts just to give you flexibility in camp, and if there are QB injuries in the league you might get a 6th / 7th in a trade
  12. No it doesn't. You are trying to find examples to fit a narrative. Unfortunately the examples don't support it
  13. The injuries were the reason and it was widely reported. Just it is now being reported with Jenkins. This LT / RT narrative simply doesn't match reality
  14. The Titans are going to walk that division so may as well let Lawrence sit a few games and adjust.
  15. Do people seriously still believe that? The days of making do at RT are long. With creativity and variation of pass rush now, you need 2 good OTs as the rush comes from across the line. And teams recognise that in the draft
  16. In terms of WR. He is also 2nd for both returner spots, which neither of the above 2 are.
  17. In the last one I saw I think they were 12 or 13th which seems about right. The Raiders are a bit low too at 20th. I'd have them borderline top 10. I'd be interested to see a poll of teams by negative opinions. Aside from the obvious Cowboys and Patriots I think the Jaguars would be pretty high, I sense increasing amounts of dislike of the media Jaguars hype train and the atmosphere at London Jaguars games has definitely turned against them in recent fixtures, they are attracting fans, but also turning neutral against them
  18. Exactly. Spain and Germany have long established, credible fan bases. Interestingly, US fans seem far more supportive of the college games in Ireland than NFL games in the UK, Germany and Spain It is in that sense, but its a far cry from the media hype machine that somehow makes out the Jaguars are London's team. Dare I say it, the best claim to that title is the Dolphins. Who have a lot of long established support and always represent really strongly in London
  19. https://yougov.co.uk/ratings/sport/popularity/american-football-teams/all Its done by the polling agency YouGov who do lots of surveys etc and has been done on a regular basis. An earlier version was referenced by SI, so suggest its credible https://www.si.com/nfl/dolphins/news/miami-dolphins-top-poll-for-favorite-nfl-team-in-united-kingdom#:~:text=The Dolphins were chosen as,Cowboys and New England Patriots.
  20. The NFL don't really have a choice until they change the rules to force teams to go. They've survived recently in London using the rule that relocated teams and SuperBowl hosts have to host an international game. To expand the international series significantly will require a fundamental rule change Not really. Whilst it's grown, the most recent survey of fan support doesn't even have the Jags in the top 10 of UK supported teams. They have a strong media impact, but in terms of actually generating fans, the data suggests its been far less successful than they would like you to believe
  21. Let's put it in perspective. It's Logan Thomas, not Travis Kelce.
