    Diggs + 28 + 2025 1st  for 4th overall 

     

    Who says no  

     

    The Cardinals if they're smart.  Diggs isn't going to get better.  He may have a few good years left, but he isn't getting better at this point, and MHJ is a much better prospect anyway.  Plus, MHJ will be much cheaper for at least 4 years.

    Is NE really gonna go with Bailey Zappe? Or Brissett?would have thought they would take a guy but they are the most likely out of the top 3. Getting ahead of the Giants at 6 maybe. You wouldn’t make this move unless you already had a trade partner or an idea of one and this can’t possibly be for JJ McCarthy but crazier ***** had happened in the draft when it comes to selecting QBs 

     

    McCarthy is going top 5.  Possibly top 3.

    Honestly, as much as JA will win us games, he will also lose some due to his sporadic undisciplined improv playing style. I mean, it's fun to watch as fans, but it just has to be a nightmare for the team sometimes.

     

    This is my thought on it as well.  It's so hard to sat because Allen could very well be dominant like he was vs KC in the 13 second game, or he could have a game where he turns it over 2-3 times and in the playoffs, that gets you sent home.  Now obviously ANY QB can have a bad day, Mahomes included, but Allen plays much more reckless, which can be amazingly good, but can also lead to a very bad game here and there too.

    I understand that but Pittsburgh has zero skin in the game.  What happens if a QB they didn’t think would be there lasts until their pick?  Or let’s say Pickett looks decent in training camp.  Or Pittsburgh starts 0-2 with Wilson starting.  Feels like Wilson is trying too hard to show people he still wants to play.  Even $5m from Pittsburgh shows some commitment towards Wilson.  

     

    It's a 1 year deal, and he gets the same money either way, so no commitment either way, and it frees up more money for players elsewhere in Pittsburgh.  Pittsburgh's defense is always near the top of the league in % of the salary cap.

    Maybe, I guess depends on where Cousins, Wilson and maybe Sam Howell end up.

     

    Not one team is passing on McCarthy if they sign Sam Howell.  Wilson either.  Cousins possibly, but he is coming off injury and it would depend on how long of a contract he signs.

    Remember folks, all of Schefter's sources are agents. He will always report the biggest possible number. 

     

    It clearly says "up to", so it's not like he's trying to hide it.  Plus, bigger numbers grab more attention, so it gets him more clicks.

    If I were the Pats, I'd trade back as far as I can (of course everything depends on who does what with FA QBs) and just ahead of the Vikes and Broncos and take

    J.J. McCarthy.  Then I'd sign C. Wilkins, 1 big name WR and a vet or two for OL. and draft BPA throughout.  Bring back Brissett.

     

    We'll see how smart Mayo is.

     

    If they want McCarthy,  they better stay where they are.

    Timing was certainly a priority, particularly in the first batch of pandemic funds. The funds were disbursed in many ways, as quickly as possible, without the time to really establish much of a system to track as well as we normally would expect from our government. I think this was the right way to do it. The economy and our citizens needed it, in emergency kind of ways.

     

    Were the later pandemic funds needed? That's where we find disagreements, right?

     

    I think if the 1st round was done properly, the 2nd round may not have been needed.  Honestly, the 2nd probably wasn't needed either way.  But as I mentioned, the citizens didn't get crap from either round, or at least the citizens who "deserved" it.  Most of the recipients were corporations and people who used it to not work but still make more money than they were while working.  The every day citizen who continued to work didn't really get much at all in regards to useful benefits.

    Dems continue to blame inflation and shrinkflation on corporations.  Because they know their base is dumb.  
     

     

     

     

    For the 1000th time, who printed the money in 2020?  Who approved more pandemic handouts, Trump or Biden?  Now, both were beyond dumb with the amounts given out, but both sides just blame each other and ignore what their own side did.  

     

    And most of the pandemic funds did end up as corporate funds and profits.  Even the money to citizens was quickly eaten up by increased prices on everything, turning right back around into corporation hands.

    It’s almost essentially a fourth round draft, pick considering where Chicago is drafting this year

     

    It's early, but not top of the round.  The 1st pick is from the Panthers, not their own.  They should have the 9th pick of the 5th round.

    That's nuts. Purdy doesn't have the physical gifts to overcome a lack of talent around him. Mediocre arm strength, not great size.

     

     

     

    You're just making stuff up at this point.  Yes, Purdy isn't 6'5" 240, but he is 6'1" and 220.  Again, not many are like Allen.  Not everyone has a rocket arm.  And that's ok.  Plenty of top tier QBs didn't have elite arm strength.  Plus, Shanahan's offense doesn't ask a quarterback to throw down field non stop.  He asks for more timing, crossing routes, which Purdy is excellent at.  

     

    Purdy is a bit of a system QB, but to act like ANY QB can be a system QB is insane.  Lance was gabage in the offense. Garrapolo wasn't much better.  Suddenly, Purdy comes in and the offense takes off but has nothing to do with him?

    Cool, let's see him do that on a team like, say, the Jets.

     

    The man is the beneficiary of the most talented offense in the league, a HOF RB, and a coach that made Matt Ryan look like a football god

     

     

    That's not fair though.  Josh Allen wouldn't look like Josh Allen on the Jets either.  He'd still be very good, but he wouldn't be as good as he is now.  

     

    Purdy definitely benefits from a good offense, but he himself is very good too.

    You would know what that looks like since you lie and give false information all the time. You’re such a hypocrite!

     

    Show me 1 example.  Give me a post of me lying and giving false info.  I generally post here once a week or so. I hadn't posted in the political portion in several weeks until recently because it's the same 10 people spewing political nonsense all the time.  People here are so divided over the stupidest of reasons, they literally just make stuff up at will and post it as fact.

    The fact you believe these examples are representative of the majority of traditional American moderates provides an insight into your irrational thinking. 

     

    You do realize that people saying that "In the eyes of the American left idiot class anyone politically to the right of Lenin and Mao are right wing extremists.  MAGA is a term they use to describe what used to be called Moderates." is the exact same irrational thinking, right?  MOST left leaning people AREN'T extremists.  The extremists tend to be the loudest, and that's on both sides of the aisle. 

     

    Most Americans fall somewhere in the middle.  They tend to lean a little right or left, but overall are more centered.  I lean a little left on social issues, but not to the extreme as to support the totally absurd lengths that some go to.  I tend to lean right on financial issues, even if the "right" politically in this country doesn't lean right in that regard anymore.

    Huntley ran the Ravens offense at the end of last year and was a fumble away from winning the wild card game.

     

    Huntley had a QBR of 42 last year. He did play decent in the playoff game, but also had 2 turnovers,  1 of which was returned for a TD. My point was,  if he starts 17 games,  the Ravens are likely 5-12ish. He averaged 131 yards passing in 5 regular season games in 2022.

    yeah anyone with half a brain can see that Josh is more valuable to Buffalo than Lamar is to the Ravens.

     

    I don't know how anyone can say this with any kind of certainty.  Without Allen, the Bills don't win many games.  Without Jackson, the Ravens don't win many games.  The Ravens offense isn't that great.  Dobbins was out.  Their WR are very iffy.  Andrews at TE is great, but he's hurt a lot.  So a lot falls on Jackson' shoulders, just like Allen in Buffalo.  

     

    I'm not disagreeing that Allen is worthy, but every fan thinks "their" guy is the most important guy in the league.
