Reaction to this law appears to have offended woke left whites. It's condescending and stupid to come out and say minorities don't already have IDs. You're aware that it's actually condescending and racist to presume that this fictionally "targeted" group of minority people without IDs are so incompetent that they couldn't easily get on, right? You know what happens if they pass a law requiring IDs? People who want to vote go get an ID. Before anyone calls me racist, I'd like to note that I am a minority myself. Is it racist that we require a drivers' license for people to drive? No. Similarly it is not racist to ask people who want to exercise their civic duty of voting to exercise the bare minimum effort of getting an ID so we can be sure that everyone's vote is counted accurately and fairly.

I find this self-centered and entitled post offensive as hell. You are entitled to nothing and are benefiting from someone else's investment of labor & money maintaining a website as well as the time and effort invested by mods. The notion of complaining about something you're receiving for free is ridiculous. Life is going to be hard if you run around believing you are owed anything from others, I hope you're able to grow out of this mindset for your own happiness.

The Gronkowski and Watt families would like a word with you about turning your nose down at one brother just because their sibling wasn't good. I note that none of your criticism has to do with the actual player, just opinions about familial ties and what you think of the program he played for.

Is a WR worth an early pick when they've played 7 games in 2 years?

I like the first 2 picks, but would rather have a big nickel or OL in the 3rd.

Yeah I agree McShay's reasoning is wrong and i don't love the pick. But outside of TE/CB I don't see a rookie 2nd rounder coming in and playing more than 40% of snaps anywhere on the roster. DE and RB are needs, but I don't see the talent in this draft at those positions to unseat the players we have starting currently. Oliver needs to be given the opportunity to step up and earn his 5th year option, I still think he can do that with a rookie playing behind him. We need better quality competition on the Dline, so I wouldn't complain about drafting a backup in the 2nd and 3rd. Phillips may be one of the only DEs we could draft that might have a shot at starting for us.

I think my post was unclear. I believe they would have him spell Ed Oliver with the odd turn at 1-tech if there were an injury so we don't have to slide Oliver over. Remember we should have both Phillips and Star back this year. I wouldn't draft Onwuzurike to play 1-tech. I do believe they would move him around though when the situation calls for because Beane loves players who are multiple.

He played plenty of 1-tech at Washington, played 3-tech as well as 5-tech too, but he's versatile and strong. I don't love the pick because I'd rather get a big body like Shelvin in the 3rd and Beane made a comment about getting bigger on the line so I think he agrees. But I don't think Onwuzurike is a bad pick, we rotate out DL a lot and would be a replacement for Vernon Butler, not Ed Oliver.

Way happier with how this draft fell. Ojulari would be a dream in the 1st, the more I think about Melinfowu (you can see in my mocks I'm locked in on him) the more I like him. Melinfowu can rotate in at CB2 and has the ability to play Big Nickel and immediately upgrading us at that position. He has the size and length to shut down TEs. Shelvin - because we need a young 1-tech badly, McDermott likes to rotate the entire DL and we will not have Phillips and Star both on the team next year. Stevens is an understudy at safety and can also play Big Nickel should Melinfowu win CB2 outright (I think he could). Iowa WR is speedy, has return ability and will likely fall a little bit because he got popped for a DUI last year. He's McKenzie on gadget plays with a little more speed. Eubanks can compete at TE2 and has the tools to win that position. Borland - special teams pretty much, it's the 7th rd.

Jumping on this Tik Tok trend a little late. You could tell Josh and Stefon were immediately aware of what he was doing; still enjoyed it though.

Sad thing about this is that his talent will ensure that the league tries its hardest to sweep this under the rug even if it is true.

The draft is a crapshoot. Trading 3 first rounders and missing on a QB pretty much dooms the team for 4 years and gets the FO fired. That said, if you don't have a QB you likely just wind up somewhere in the middle, just making or missing the playoffs and not advancing beyond the wild card - that's about as likely to get a FO fired.

Someone paid millions of dollars to put their name on a stadium that most will continue to refer to as "the Ralph." Ok.

So... yeah I'm fairly sure he did this now after reading the SI article. Gross.

https://nypost.com/2020/05/15/deandre-baker-could-be-headed-for-commissioners-exempt-list/ Evidently you're right. I didn't think players were getting paid while on the list, but I guess they do.

I think I'm picking up on a trend here but I want to be sure. If BPA is DE, who do you take?

I strongly believe Horn will be gone top 15 and Meinerz by rd 3

Completely against trading up. The greatest positions of need we have are DE, DT, CB. The strength of this draft is in its depth at those positions. We need to pick up extra picks in the 3rd or 4th rd and pick up some young players with upside. Tyler Shelvin, Alim McNeil, Ifeatu Melifonwu, Hamsah Nasirildeen, Dyami Brown, Shawn Wade, Israel Mukuamu, Shakur Brown, Trill Williams, Paulson Adebo, Tyree Gillespie - all these players could help us immediately and they are all going rds 2-4. I'd rather pick up 3-4 of these guys rather than trade up and lose a chance at them.

I don't know what TDN was smoking, but I'll take it. No way either my first 2 picks will be around for our picks.

Sam's stock is the lowest it's ever been. You can draft a 1st rd QB and let him sit for a year and try to rehab Darnold's trade value.
