  1. The NFL made a decision many years ago to protect WRs and QBs from getting mauled the way they had been mauled for decades.   

     

    The NFL opened the doors to a passing league dominated by passing plays during a period when TV/Streaming contract prices accelerated upward.   

     

    So the way to win is throwing the ball downfield, since the rules encourage it.    So QBs and WRs are way more valuable than RBs, and the contracts today show that.   

     

    The numbers are so massive due to the salary cap, which is driven by what networks/streamers will pay to show NFL games, has increased dramatically recently.  

     

    Its all pretty simple.   Load up on QBs and WRs , as they determine if you win or lose.  And you have the salary cap to pay up for them. 

     

    RBs are good to have, but not essential to winning and losing.  

     

    Is what it is.

    He also missed 5 games last year with Kentucky. Hope this isn't a case where he can't stay healthy.

    kind of a little guy...

     

    always a concern when they get to the NFL and get start getting beat up by grown men

    The hype was super high, and he looked like a freak to me coming out. I live right here in Atlanta, so since he doesn’t play for UGA I don’t hear much about him.  :)

     

    I’m like a bird watcher when I have a rare Falcons gear sighting. 

     

     

     

    kinda like Jax.   all the fans care about is the Gators

    Yeah, OP is not correct. I live in Utah and watched Cole at U of U and he is an extremely willing, aggressive, and downhill tackler. Not an ounce of hesitation in the guy.

    Seeing Brian Thomas Jr. at 15 still kills me

    agreed.  but trading up to 22 or earlier to get him would have cost Beane a lot.   in 20/20 hindsight, of course it may have been worth it.   

     

    We'll see how Coleman does this year;

    How can you say Cleveland is screwing up?  They finished with the second worst record in the league, then fleeced the Jags out of next years first round pick.  They are well-positioned to grab a QB in next year’s draft. And it’s not at all clear to me that they are trying to win games in 2025.

    ah yes, fair enough, forgot about that really smart draft trade deal.   so they could win a few this, help Stafanski keep his job (not a good idea IMO), and get a QB.  

     

    I stand corrected.

    To start, I am not banging the table saying either are great quarterbacks, but they are clearly capable of starting in the NFL.  They may not be great, by any means, but they are way better than who the Saints and Steelers plan on putting on the field. 
     

    Granted, the Giants just signed Winston, but then signed Russel (named the starter) and drafted Dart.   The Saints took a guy in the second round, but he is far from a sure bet of being NFL ready, let alone week 1 ready.  
     

    Am I missing something here.  How are the Saints and Steelers not all over these trades?  I can’t imagine the asking price is big.  If in a fan of either team,  dreading this upcoming season as is.  If in a HC of either team, am I not also fighting for me job?  Granted Tomlin appears to be untouchable at times, but for how long?

     

    Just thoughts. 

    they are quietly tanking for next years QB draft.   IMHO.  If they pay a bundle for Cousins or whoever, hell they'll be out 40mil , win a few and screw it all up.   

     

    Drafting the franchise guy is what its all about in the NFL. 

     

    Will the coaching staff all get fired in the process for losing 13 games?  Yep.  But thats the cost of doing business.   

     

    An example of a team that is screwing it up is Cleveland; they are trying to win games.   The Saints are playing it beautifully now that Carr is retiring.   Tank and grab Archie Manning's grandson... what a story that will be.

    Why? They can have a horrible year and be in line to draft Arch Manning ..

    that would actually be an amazing result. 

     

    if you are going to tank for a QB, this is the year to do it, with the strength of next years QB draft class.

     

    timing is everything

    Would love to see Bosa be a consistent disrupter at DE. If he can stay healthy, it would be a dynamic on our DL that we haven’t had in a very long time! 

    Bosa.  Other than him, the D is no more productive than last year (which was very productive in turnovers, etc)

  10. Nice here in the DMV that time of year.  Spring has sprung by then.   Big lift for DC, that many people coming in.  Should be fun.  

     

    In all honesty, we all know that the weather in WNY in mid April is mainly dreadful.  To have a big open air event at that time would invite comparisons to the Blizzard of '77.   Please don't.   

     

    The Bills are finally lifting the areas rep , let's not trash it again with a rain soaked, 50 deg 3 day outdoor event.  Just sayin
