I guess you missed the part where he grew up with learning disabilities and then worked his arse off to set up charities to help kids with similar problems.
Plus he's a truly good person and continues to give back to the community long past the end of his playing days.
So STFUAGTFOOH, a-hole,...

I don't think so . Saban spent 17 seasons at Alabama. Not many coaches stay that long at the same school these days.[/quote]

[quote]And I like Penix. I just worry about using a first round pick on a QB who has to have everything go right for him to be successful - guys like Tua, Goff, and soon to be Nix, Penix and McCarthy.[/quote] ...snicker snicker... I notice you didn't include Mac Jones in that illustrious list.....

[quote]House isn’t a dumbass. He knows football and he knows X’s and O’s you don’t get to where he’s been without it. But it takes more than that to be a good college coach. It’s a tough job. You’re teaching a lot of these guys from basically scratch.[/quote]
So what you're saying is that House wou...
re: If Brock Bowers or Rome Odunze are still on the board at 14, do you take one of them?

[quote]There are busts at every position but I think OL is one of the easier ones to predict. Size, athleticism, experience, character traits is all you need to look at. They’re large bodies who’s job is to get in the way the defense. It’s not rocket science.[/quote]
Sorry, friend, but I have to di...

[quote]In regards to KC, I think Mahomes is just different. I honestly couldn’t name one OL on that team. Kelce is very important to that team and frankly probably more than the random OL they bring in to protect Mahomes. Mahomes has a quick release and is very mobile too.[/quote]

Posted by Dotarian on 3/29/24 at 10:37 am
[quote]Exactly, we’re not a contender. Go get a player who can be a core piece in the future because he’s an elite talent. Don’t grab an OL just because you have to. Unless you’re getting a top 5ish sure fire LT. [/quote]
I agree. OT's are a dicey pick, no matter what round they get selected in. ...

re: Bo Nix

[quote]And if he goes in the 2nd is he a first ballot hof?[/quote]
Nope. He'll simply be relegated to the endless list of non-1st round QB's that either weren't elite/franchise level, or took a LONG time to get there (and several shots with multiple teams).
My point was that if he goes in the 1s...

[quote]I'm actually a little higher on Nix than most. Granted, most think he sucks. I think he has the potential to be a decent NFL starter one day. And he'd be a great back up.[/quote]
If he goes in the first, he'll be Baker Mayfield 2.0. Good, not great, and needing 4-6 years to mature and grow ...
