    Would you be OK with a smaller/lighter NFL version of the play in tournament like the NBA has?

    I like the way it is now.  I remember under the old format you'd see a 7-9 division make the playoffs while an 10-6 team sat home because they didn't win their division.  The one tweak I like that they may make is a division winner that doesn't finish above .500 doesn't host the WC game.

    Most teams wrap up their division before week 17.  Talk about a ratings killer for week 17 and 18.

    True, but it’s not about ratings, if ya can’t win your division, you don’t deserve to be in the postseason, again , jmo.

    He weighs.    Like 260 pounds and he’s slow can’t get separation, hell  even Coleman is faster, thst and he retired a bunch of years ago, 

     

     

     

    think he will catch on now

    On the flip side, there is also the "with what money" crowd when there is a guy people want to sign or the team misses out on. When you have limited funds, not sure gambling on a guy that has been either hurt or not productive since 2021. We have gone down this road before (Josh Norman) and expect a different result. 

    Oh well, it’s not my money it’s not my decision, when the draft is over we will see what the team looks like,

    Eh I think if he’s super cheap it’s worth doing. You get a veteran voice in the room to mentor Amos/Hairston or whoever they draft in the first round. Dude has been to Super Bowls. It’s a very young DB room. Plus you get a contingency plan as a very experienced backup and you create smoke a smokescreen that your biggest hole on the roster is filled. 

    I don’t buy it, there is little chance he can be competitive as a cb on the field at this point, sure with the vet tutoring thing, but it will take another seasons worth of time before he is mediocre at his job, these injuries take two years to fully recover from, 

    What is your favorite serendipitous draft story?

    Love the Elway drama. As one of the first years I watched the draft, it helped make me more interested in the draft.  Also, the Manning/Rivers draft.

     

    Not really draft, but related. Jim Kelly leaving Buffalo at the alter…

     

    Jim Kelly in town to sign after the draft.  Bruce Allen of the USFL calls the Bills offices and the secretary gives the call to Kelly’s agent and tells him not to sign. Jim leaves and the rest is history.  I do believe his years in the USFL helped make him a better NFL QB, specially in the K Gun.

    Yup, that’s top shelf Billsy right there,

    Is Cook worth it?

    Maybe, I’m just saying maybe, the OP didn’t know there has been an ongoing thread for weeks now about Cook an his inability to read the room he is in, or is it just me?
