Would you guys give up 2 2nd round picks for him? I have seen his stats but have only seen him play a handful of times so I'm not going to pretend to know what he's worth or what he brings to a team.

Why do we need a WR in the draft?
ndirish1978 replied to MrSarcasm's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
At what point in time did I advocate taking a receiver with our first pick or poo-poo'd the idea of the Diggs trade? Looks like you're still sore I made jest of you getting names wrong in that thread you started. The OP asked for the argument of why we need to pick a WR in the draft, I gave him my argument. I should note that you misspelled Beasley, might want to work on that. My days of not taking you seriously are definitely coming to a middle. -

V+A+L+U+E. The draft is deep at WR and you can get 1st round talent in the 2nd and starter-quality into the 4th round according to most experts. That said, WR does have one of the highest bust rates of any position, so it'd be a good idea to double up. -
Hard Knocks 2020: LA Rams/LA Chargers

Another season of building up undrafted rookies and then showing them break down as they get cut, meh. -
We had 2 of the highest rated games of the season. I think 2 is a minimum and 3 is probable. I understand the sentiment that this is a sport and sports should be fair to all and evenhanded with all teams, however that flies in the face of the cold hard fact this the NFL is an entertainment company in the business of making money. The big market teams, who bring in more revenue for the league will always be favored. Smaller markets like Green Bay get attention because they do have a national audience and well, they are good. Mid to small-market teams have to be good/entertaining and increase their share of bandwagon fans in order to get a fair shake with the league, that includes ref'ing and the schedule makers. I don't need to point out to refs telling Cam he hasn't "earned" certain calls or being told by Brady to watch for certain penalities and then subsequently calling those penalties to convince people here that there is bias in the system towards big names/bigger teams.

2020 mock drafts/ fanspeak/ draft network
ndirish1978 replied to ScorpionZero's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I am quite happy with this one. Got the WR/RB combo I wanted and drafted a stud CB. For me it's either this one or the one I did with Kmet as my top choices. -
14 teams in the Playoffs confirmed. Are we a lock?
ndirish1978 replied to Chandler#81's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Condescending answer and completely wrong. It's not hard to understand that a weak division with a division-winner who ekes in to the playoffs at 8-8 is a worse quality team than the 10-6 team that came in second in their division and missed the playoffs because of tiebreakers. -

Doubt it, if he's using Ryan Davis as a mouthpiece. 18M is what the franchise tag pays and that is evidently "well below" what he is worth. Probably looking for 20M+

No, because it's an American league, the games should be played solely in-country. Would you be happy if the EPL sent your favorite team to play 16% of their games in the US and Mexico? Doubt it. Brits throw fits just because Americans buy EPL teams, if they took away games you guys would riot. If you want games you should be getting pre-season at best, just like Arsenal and Manchester do when they play these warm-up tourneys across the pond, not games that actually mean something. International games put the "home" team at an awful disadvantage and they are ridiculous in a sport where you only get 8 home games to begin with.

Miami and New England Team Building Strategies...
ndirish1978 replied to DrDawkinstein's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Don't underestimate their HC, he had a team of nobodies playing well at the end of the year. He may make waves given some actual talent on that team. Who are they cutting? Can't even sign rookies with that amount. -
Cole Kmet is the only TE in this draft I would take. He has more natural hands than Sweeney or Knox and we would be set at TE between those three for years to come.

Not sure if I like this better than my RB in rd 2 draft, but I do like the idea of double-dipping on WRs. -

He's a depth option who at least provides competition. People are complaining about a backup.
