I hate you all, j/k. No I'm not . . . no emoticon for unhappy bulldog.

The logic of simulations is often elusive, but I see I did not pay attention to the context of your comment.

Meet the Bills two 1st round picks!!
Dr. Who replied to Tatonka68's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I think he might be available in the second round. -
R. Smith isn't lasting to #22. You make that trade with the Pats*, they would take Smith if he is on the board. Don't like Rudolph at all, really. Folks who like him see a much better player than I am seeing.

Some young qbs are question marks. Is Kizer going to turn into a starter quality qb? I dunno. Probably not, but maybe. Carr and Mariotta regressed this year, for whatever reason, but I wouldn't say they're not starters. I'm starting to wonder about Mariotta, however. Some teams actually were forced to start backups because of injury (Colts/Texans.) The Niners before the Garoppolo trade did not have a starter quality qb. I don't think Bortles is a good qb, but you could argue. Jets, Broncos, Cardinals don't have starter quality qbs. Trubisky did not play like a starter, but he's still young so he might improve to justify his draft status. Taylor is below a Dalton or a Tannehill, who I think are marginal starters, but better than backup. Cutler is probably done and not very good. Taylor is below Dalton and in the ballpark of Jets and Broncos qbs, though Josh McCown sees the field better and is a more reliable passer. (I never implied there were twenty backups starting. You mentioned bottom third of the league, did you not? Anyway, this year, Taylor is in the bottom nine, imo.)

Is there any reason he would not come back from his injury? And while Zay had his problems, it seems to me many wrs take a few years to really establish themselves. It's certainly too early to write him off. Overall, however, we need more playmakers. It would be nice to at least have one burner with decent hands at wr, for instance.

Worst ever in history is hyperbole or non-sense, but I still think Tyrod is a mediocre starter on a really good day and generally, yes, a pretty good backup. Bottom third of NFL qbs are starters because there aren't 32 starter quality qbs in the NFL. They should all be backups if it weren't for the dearth of quality at the position.

I liked him. There was a time when it was not irrational to think EJ needed more time to develop. When he had the time and had not significantly improved, almost everyone agreed and those who hoped for him were disappointed that such a fine fella just couldn't play NFL qb. Tyrod has had what, seven years?

Pursue Carolina's Andrew Norwell in Free Agency?

Man, you had to bring in the advanced analytics didn't you? -
Pursue Carolina's Andrew Norwell in Free Agency?
Dr. Who replied to PolishDave's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I don't really know the fella, but McD and Beane will. That's the sorta FA signing I think we should be looking at. I'd like to see DL and OL at least partially addressed through free agency --- frees up more possibilities for the draft. -
These seem like plausible predictions to me. I don't like it, particularly. I like Mayfield and I can't get excited about a 34 year old qb unless he's a bridge to a potential franchise qb. I prefer Sony Michel to Chubb, but as a UGA fan, I am good with either. If you go LB in the first, sure would be nice to get Roquan Smith, but you'd have to trade up. No way he lasts to #21.

Yannick Ngakoue accuses Incognito of racial slurs
Dr. Who replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The metaphysics of truth exceeds ideological conceptions, but that requires a discussion not germane to this kind of board. Naturally, one may graduate from any program and run counter to the ideals established by department chairs and the like. -

I did explain that I did not read the original message board comment as serious. If you want to continue to act as if I am party to a desire to actually wipe people out, that's not honest on your part. Lockstep that isn't really lockstep isn't lockstep, but fine, I can live without your respect. -

Well, I assumed that was hyperbole. If meant seriously, it's certainly deplorable. -

Dr. Who replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
You are assuming a fair amount based on a quick comment. I am a conservative, but more influenced by European thought. I am not a gun-toting Trump voter, for instance. I have a PhD in the humanities. I speak from experience. If one espouses proclivities for traditional Western culture (Homer and the Bible,) one will find it almost impossible to find an academic position. Progressive ideology has a stranglehold nearly everywhere from elite institutions to community colleges. -

Schools and universities are designed to create them. Ivy League schools take your little darlings and turn them into folks who think correctly, don't you know? -
Official fire Rick Dennison thread
Dr. Who replied to Buffalo Bills Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
They need to improve both OC and QB. Don't want Rico developing the new fella that will hopefully develop into a franchise qb. -
ESPN predicts Alex Smith as starting Bills QB in 2018.
Dr. Who replied to PIZ's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I know you won't agree with this , but we should draft Baker Mayfield and Mark Andrews. They've already got a good chemistry going. -
2017 Draft Trade with 2018 Value Points
Dr. Who replied to coldstorage5's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
If Mahomes ends up a franchise qb, we lose the trade, no matter how good we choose at other positions -- unless we get our own franchise qb. However, given the glut of teams seeking qb this year, it will likely cost more draft capital to get a qb than last year. And it's not just about Mahomes, but Watson as well, who was available at #10.
