Kraft's behavior involved 2x 50+ year-olds - help me with the comparison.
There is no comparison. There was a lot of BS released by the police dept down here. There were no minors. There are Asian massage places everywhere in FL. The cops usually leave them alone unless they start selling drugs.

It's not hard to root for him. Hope he can come back strong and contribute.

I like AJ. Still feel like he would be better as a 3-4 DE but we'll see.

I agree with this. It is the most obvious actual scenario as far as the Packers are concerned.
2007 rating 95.7/4155 yards/28 TD/15 int
2009: 107.2 rating/4202/33/7
It's confirmed: you don't know what "falling off a cliff" is.
Why skip 2005 and 2006? I said he fell of a cliff the year they drafted Rogers. Which was 2005. I didn't say anything inaccurate. Go find someone else to bicker with.

Sorry, thought you said "year before." But maybe Rodgers falls off a cliff this year?
If he does in the next year or 2 then they made the right. I think Rogers is a douche anyways so I hope he does.

Huh?
2 years after Rodgers was drafted Favre was a Pro Bowl QB again. And again the following year (Jets) and the year after that (with Vikings). In fact, in his 19th year, he was better than Rodgers was last year.
Rodgers is already slowing down. He went from 45, 39, 38, 31, 40 TD seasons to 25 and 26.
Brett Farve
2004: 30 TDs 17 ints 92.4 Qb rating
2005: 20 TDs 29 ints (career high) 70.9 qb rating
If that's not falling off a cliff, I don't know what is.

Favre had a really good season in 2004, and IMHO better than his 2003 season when he made the Pro Bowl.
Rogers was drafted in 2005. Farve's 2005 season was garbage. I know they drafted Rogers after Farve's 2004 season but that's not what I said.
-
Terrible move. No reason to draft Love this year. Farve fell off a cliff the year they drafted Rogers. I don't see Rogers doing that for at least 3-4 years. Grab a guy in the 3rd or 4th every year and see if you can develop someone. Grabbing a backup Qb after you just went 13-3, insane.

The model for nearly every team has been, you sign your 2nd-7th rounders you want to keep after year 3 of their rookie deal and you sign your first rounders after year 4.

Give me Jabari Zuniga in the 3rd over this guy. I am a gator homer though.

Yes. Finally someone who knows what he's talking about with this. I agree with most of what you said, but using the lasted confirmed cases and people who died and were confirmed beforehand in the US the current mortality rate is 4% in the US(I'm not talking the whole World's numbers).
Being an essential worker(Actually handling COVID-19 test packages at UPS) & having a couple of underlying conditions that make me more susceptible to getting and dying from this virus I have practically have been studying this virus since early March.
You still can't do math though.

12,469 divided by 60.8 million is .0002, unless math has changed and I'm not aware of it. That is the US's mortality rate, I only used US numbers for both viruses. Also I did mention the final estimate of cases was going to be higher, but so will the deaths from it as places like NYC has had a ton of people dying in their homes and hospitals that were never tested and currently their deaths are not going into the final tally, but they will in the end. Again these numbers are straight from the CDC's own website.

.0002 is not .0002% like you said. There's a big difference.

H1N1 was around for a full year and was highly contagious, but had a very, very low mortality rate. The US CDC has estimated the US cases at 60.8 million with 12,469 people dying from the disease. Covid-19 has been around for a couple of months with 588,469 confirmed cases(Estimates later on will bring this number higher) with 23,711 confirmed deaths. Again though later estimates of the dead will go much higher as people dying at home & hospitals that were/are untested are not going into the final tally.
These are 2 totally different viruses with 2 totally different mortality rates. Covid-19's mortality rate is currently 4.0% while H1N1's was .0002%. Covid-19's mortality rate is 20,000 times higher. In comparison if the same 4% died from H1N1 there would've been over 2.43 million deaths. This isn't an apples to apples comparison. The easiest way to look at it is the World didn't shutdown for H1N1 like it has for the Covid-19 virus. The last time the US shutdown to a pandemic, I believe, was in 1918. Covid-19 has been repeatedly called a once in a century pandemic.
This is all wrong. First off, covid-19 mortality rate is going to be most likely less then 1% when the numbers are adjusted for all the people that had it and never got tested or even knew. Secondly H1N1 had a mortality rate of .02% not .0002%. Corona virus is not 20000 times more deadly like you're saying. Just totally wrong.

We don't know for sure if doctors will ever come up with a vaccine. And even if they do, it will be at least 2021 before they can complete full testing/clinical trials and be confident it doesn't cause disastrous side-effects.
If people are planning to wait for a vaccine before they are willing to re-open society, then a lot of these things we love are going to disappear permanently. And professional sports are not exempt from that. Even billionaires don't have an infinite amount of money to just sit on the sidelines without income for 12-18 months. I was reading yesterday that Disney is losing $20-30 million PER DAY by having their parks closed. Many of these NFL owners are taking huge losses on multiple areas of their business.
Listening to health experts, there are multiple ways (even without a vaccine) that we can gradually work our way back into normalcy. This includes getting back to large public gatherings like sports.
One is by offering extensive testing, which can identify who has the virus currently (so they can be quarantined faster) and who has already recovered from it. Once a person has recovered, they are immune and can be released to operate as normal without being a risk of getting infected again or being a carrier and infecting another person. This is called herd immunity. It's very likely that MANY people have already had this and didn't even know. As you can imagine, coming up with 328 million tests for every individual in the country is a very tall task. So right now, the tests are being prioritized for those showing serious symptoms. But as time goes along, it's more likely we can achieve the ability to test most, if not all Americans.
Second is by discovering medicines, drugs and treatments for the virus. This will not take anywhere near as long as a vaccine, especially if something is found among currently FDA-approved drugs. There are already multiple treatments (specifically those currently used to treat Malaria and Ebola) which are already being prescribed by doctors for critically-ill patients and proving to be very effective against this virus.
Third is by making adjustments to our practices at large gatherings. Requiring people to wear masks. Taking temperatures at the door/gate. Taking extra steps to sanitize. Etc.
Great post!

What are you talking about? Today is April 13th. The NFL season is not scheduled to start for over 4 an a half months. Why such gloom and doom? You really think there is going to be much of a shutdown past the next month in most places? I just don't see it. The panic among some is unbelievable. The reports I watch are that things are getting better. People are going to demand to go back to work. Life for most of us has to go on. The mindset outside of the Northeast and probably the West Coast is probably different on most things. And this seems no different. The liberal media paints a picture that is absolutely catastrophic. Here in Atlanta there is major social distancing. But by next month things will get moving again. What is there approx 23,000 dead from Covid 19? Do you know how many people die on avg in our country every day? Almost 7,700. Why aren't we in a panic every single day? I think while serious, the response has been absolutely over the top in many places. And then other places like Kentucky, they are holding big time Easter church services. I don't think that is appropriate. But to think that people are going to accept having their lives completely turned upside down for a whole lot longer is absolutely preposterous. What Corona is going to be remembered as is a bad virus that killed a lot of elderly and a lot of poor people. And why the poor, because many of them unfortunately have a whole lot of co morbidies (which means preexisting underlying health problems) and are not healthy to begin with. Sure there are outliers. But that is the overwhelming majority of who is dying. And those people would likely be still dying (maybe not as rapidly) even if there wasn't Covid-19. (I know. My business has centered around lower income people for a quarter century. I know how they live and what they do and don't do. And what happens to them)
We live in such an age of political correctness, that if anyone is not in absolute panic overdrive mode about anything that kills even the smallest amount of people, they are chastised to the extreme. Do you think 40 years ago there would be this much hysteria over Covid-19? Absolutely not. And according to CNN and most of the media it has to all be Trump's fault.
I want football. Its bad enuf this time of year with no sports to watch. (I was just becoming a Nascar fan this year when the virus hit) Imagine what the weekends will be like in the fall with no football. I don't even want to fathom that. You all stay safe. And keep thinking positive. The draft is almost here!!
They finally got a crisis to stick. We need to smartly open back up the country by May or we are in for big trouble.

Much of the Bills drafting in the 2000's is so atrocious. Downright embarrassing. Terrible picks, terrible strategy. Mel kiper would have been a better GM for the Bills in those years. Thank God we finally have a front office we can feel secure with.

Oh I memba

I don't see anyway Dobbins falls to us in the 2nd. Guy is way too talented. If he did though, we'd be fools to pass. Devin is a really nice player but I don't see him as a workhorse back in the NFL. As far as edge rushers, I think Jabari Zuniga From Florida in the 3rd would be a steal. IMO he's better than Greenard. He just unfortunately sprained his ankle this season and never got healthy.

This will go down as the most irrational response to a virus on record.

Bills need to add a DE in FA. What the story on Emmanuel Ogbah?

I think it's interesting that no 1st round defensive player has signed a new deal after only 3 season since Kueckly in 2015. Players like Aaron Donald, Joey Bosa, Von Miller, Khalil Mack, Jalen Ramsey etc all played out at least 4 years of their rookie contract before getting a new one. It'll be interesting to see if Beane breaks the trend.

I have a CC in FL. When I drove to Buffalo last summer, nearly every state on the way I have reciprocity. When I got to NY, I wasn't allowed to stop in the state, even if my handgun was unloaded and locked in a case, which it was. That's totally crazy imo.
Has there been a QB in recent memory with more Bulletin Board material than Josh?

Not even close to what Josh Allen has gotten from the media. No one even cared enough about the other guys you listed. Tyrod gets talked up by most media guys.
