Beck Water Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 Maybe catfishing not the right word. Example: I'm scrolling on my phone and "Chargers trade Austin Ekeler to Eagles for late 1st" strikes my eyeballs. Then I read "Seven Round Mock Draft" and "Chiefs take 3 WR". Oh. Wish I were savvy enough to adjust my newsfeed to not show me shite like that. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hondo in seattle Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 Sportswriters need content. So when there is no news, they invent some: mock drafts, trade rumors, refuted trade rumors, speculation... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsVet Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 My dad gets these all the time. Like Lamar Jackson re-signing with Baltimore for 2 years and 110M. Or Rodgers being traded. I have to tell him that's click-bait garbage from low grade outfits and check a true source like ESPN or, dare I say it, TBD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsNutHawaii Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 Just now, Yawning Frog said: I I'm not first in line save my spot for me. Will do. On a somewhat more serious note, I see some people giving others grief for looking ahead to future drafts. Speaking for myself only, I like to look ahead for a few reasons: - I know Bills management is looking ahead, and being a fan of the team I enjoy speculating what they may be planning / observing. - Future mock drafts (1-2 years out) give me an idea who to pay attention to in college football. So many teams, so little time, the future mock drafts help me to narrow my focus when watching the college FB action. - On a personal level, I enjoy the planning process. In fact, I do it for a living for the US Government here in Hawaii. So that extends to my hobbies like following the Bills. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TampaBillsJunkie Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 10 minutes ago, HOUSE said: Who is Catfish and what round ? Catfish Hunter. 7th Round flyer. They are bringing him in as a QB for Terrell Owens. It's age appropriate. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
