Brian Thomas Jr. speculation, he's got and off the field issue / injury making teams nervous. May need reconstructive surgery on shoulder after 2024 season IF he can play on it this year without injurying it more. https://www.sportingnews.com/us/nfl/news/colts-nfl-draft-target-brian-thomas-jr-shoulder-injury/551ac69bb3b0faa9372ede9c

You can say that again!

You know, that would cost around $16k per fan... So basically the cost of the PSL, lol

OJ Simpson, not a Jew.

There are more 2nd round wr's that could be in play here. Ja'Lynn Polk for one.

The SF 1986 draft. Had to look that up. They traded back to 39 and took a DE that flamed out. Then had 12 more picks. One of which became HOF DE Charles Haley, they're second DE selected, at 96. In all, they selected two CB's that started for a decade. They're #2 wr Jon Taylor... A LT that started for a decade. A third DE in addition to Haley that started for a number of years. And Tom Rathman... Like us, they had their franchise QB. But they also already had Jerry Rice... Flip DE and WR--trade back and take 3 cracks at finding two legitimate starting wr's? And then hope to find four more decades long starters? Sign me up! Easier said than done though.

Got offered lots of trade backs:

I don't know about all that. The big "incident" that gets cited is where he supposedly hit a woman. But if you watch the tape, the opposing student body storms the field. And someone gets in his face talking smack and he pushes her away. He definitely didn't punch her.

Simms loves to be a contrarian... But Thomas is my wr 4, and there's enough distance between him and my #5 (Mitchell) that I'd trade up for him... I also really like the idea of pairing a proven receiver (Aiyuk) with 1-2 guys in this draft class... I'll also say this, there's absolutely no one right way for Beane to address wr. There's probably a dozen or more ways to do a good job. And a handful of ways to blow it. Lots of exciting possibilities, imo... I could see Beane pairing Coleman and Burton, or Legette and Baker.

Except the Bills literally had no deep threats for Brady to scheme with. Brian Thomas would give the offense the added dimension of a big bodied flyer on the outside that kills downfield.

You mean the 165 losses between playoff appearances?

In preseason, and he was bad at RT. Which is why I don't think view Van Demark as a swing tackle, but the backup LT.

Do you think they told him he's in competion for a starting position? Or that he's in competion for a backup role?

I think Van Demark looked bad on the right side.
