RD 3, Pick 74: RB Devin Singletary, Florida Atlantic
Herc11 replied to SDS's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
When that 4.66 guy is being chased by that 4.46 guy you can certainly see it. -
RD 3, Pick 74: RB Devin Singletary, Florida Atlantic
Herc11 replied to SDS's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I really want to like the guy, but I just don't think he has the speed for his style of running. Check out these highlights against OU. For his style of running, he won't be able to hit the outside runs, NFL LBrs are too fast. Sure he can make some fast cuts, but there is no top gear. I sure as hell hope he proves me wrong. I highly doubt him being drafted means the end of Shady. -

They listed him at 5'7" and a fraction (don't remember) in the draft. Buffalo also published him at 5'&" and he's listed on google at 5'7" Where do you see 5'9"??? He certainly looks short in the highlights -

He's only 5'7" and really doesn't look like he has that extra gear in his highlights. I know MJD was 5'8" but he was a wrecking ball and fast. I wish Beane would of moved up for a WR and then went after Bryce Love in the 4th. -
Is McDermott trying to get Oliver his own cereal?

Figure some may not know... it's clearly a reference/joke about the general mills plant in south B-lo that has the whole area smelling like cheerios. -
Dwayne Haskins’ father is a strange dude
Herc11 replied to Reed83HOF's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I got the vibe he was more worried about his own image and this is why he is so controlling of the situation. Your son is a man now and about to be a millionaire. It's time to let him go and hope the values you raised him with carry forward. -

Gov't paying means lowest bidder wins. Anyone that has spent time in the military or Gov't work knows how that goes. -
Help out Matt Barkley - who knew these existed in Buffalo?
Herc11 replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Just be glad it's not a camel spider. Those things are terrifying, very aggressive, and get quite large. I was on a deployment to Saudi Arabia, where they are everywhere. I worked nights and me and a buddy got back from a fuel run. A camel spider came out from underneath our fuel truck and my buddy goes and throws the wheel chock at it. The thing was peacefully going a different direction, until that chock almost hit him. I sh!t you not, that camel spider stopped dead in its tracks and turned and bolted after my buddy. Thank god I never ran across another one in my deployments. -
Sure, cause you surely weren't insinuating that he was wrong with your snide remark. ?

So we've not only learned you were wrong, but you also dont know how to be humble and admit that you were wrong. Great qualities right there.

Julio Jones doesn't care about being highest paid WR
Herc11 replied to Herc11's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
He has been that way his entire career. If he was doing as Kirby suggested he should do, he would of been the highest paid QB many times over. If you are out to maximaize your income, you don't take a contract well below your potential just because you have endorsements and a highly paid spouse. -
Julio Jones doesn't care about being highest paid WR
Herc11 replied to Herc11's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
There certainly are teams that can't keep some of the star players that they would like to keep. Look at how much that Seattle D fell apart as their players started demanding star contracts. Yes, you can afford to keep 2-3 players at top contracts, but that's about it. Like I said before.... Tom Brady. Take a look at his contract throughout the years. Never once has he been the top paid QB or had the highest contract. He has on many occasions restructured in order to pay other players. Yes, I know restructuring isn't essentially losing money, just changing the way it's dolled out. In fact, in 2016, 17, and 18 Joe fricken Flacco's cap hits were $22.5, $24.5, and $24.7 M... Brady? His was $13.7, $14, and $22 M. I do agree with you however about the QB position. That is the one position where you have to pay your franchise guy. We all know what its like not to have that guy. And again, I never said it's bad that someone wants to get what they are worth. -

Point to where I said they shouldn't. Let me help you, you won't find it because I never said it. What I was saying was that I think its a positive when you have a top rated player that knows the importance of keeping more than just him on the roster. Earning window of 10 years, huh? I can care less about that. Most starters in the NFL make more money in 1 year playing a game than I will in my lifetime. They only go bankrupt because they don't know how to not spend that money. So you don't think a QB that is getting $30 M per isn't limiting the team? Or a WR make $20 M per isn't? You got save somewhere on the team after having those kinds of contracts. There's a reason why the draft is so valuable now... Rookie contracts that can keep star players and fill the team out for cheap for 4-5 years. This is exactly McBeane's strategy if you haven't noticed. -

Herc11 replied to Herc11's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
My apologies, I didn't see you ask it the first time. In a world with players that are only out for themselves such as OBJ, its nice to see someone that thinks about the team as well. I don't doubt that. -

Herc11 replied to Herc11's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
No, its the fact that he knows that its important to be able to sign more than just him. This is exactly the benefit that Brady has given the Patriots throughout his career. While QBs are getting $100 million contracts, he isn't close. Being able to have top-rated talent at team friendly deals is a major plus in my book. -

Herc11 replied to Herc11's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Of course he wants a new contract, but it's refreshing to hear a player say that being the highest paid isn't his priority. He even stated how important it is to be able to keep other players around, which shows he's not a selfish teammate. That definitely sounds like a McBeane type attitude to me.
