    Looking Ahead to Redrafts 2024: First Four Rounds

    R.White may not be a no-brainer. He had a productive season, but 3.6 ypc may cause the Bucs to look for an upgrade next year.

    Looking Ahead to Redrafts 2024: First Four Rounds

    Don't think Henry on the wrong side of 30 with a fair amount of mileage on the tires should be in the top four rounds. Best case is that he carves out a Jerome Bettis-like goal-line back role someplace. More likely is that he is done - the cliff comes up abruptly for heavily used RBs. Kelce shouldn't be drafted in the first four rounds either (but he may very well be in many leagues). There wasn't a large sample size, but Anthony Richardson was looking like the real deal and could be a league winner if he drops (and learns to protect himself better) - I'd much rather take my chances with him several rounds later than Stroud in the fourth.
  3. Or more likely they have given up on Russ - at this point Stidham may give them the best chance to win. During their little hot streak they were mostly just relying on Russ not to make any big mistakes.

    Merry Christmas

    I think the FU threads serve well as the airing of grievances. The feats of strength - I'm not sure....

    Saturday Discussion: Bills at Chargers - Wk16

    Kudos to Gabe for softening the damage done to me by Higgins earlier.

    Saturday Discussion: Bengals at Steelers - Wk16

    If Cincy isn't going to use their time outs there, not sure why they didn't just go for it on 4th and 17.

    Saturday Discussion: Bengals at Steelers - Wk16

    Had I known, I'd have gladly compensated you to keep your eyes glued to the game.

    Saturday Discussion: Bengals at Steelers - Wk16

    That's the kind of league Larry David should play in.

    Saturday Discussion: Bengals at Steelers - Wk16

    Yeah, one of those 5 TD Mixon games would be fine with me so long as it keeps Higgins quiet.
  10. I wouldn't want any part of the Bears backfield for the rest of this season. I think the plan is for Roschon to eventually be the man. I don't think I'd start Foreman over any of the players you listed except maybe White if it looks like Jacobs is good to go.

    Week 16 All-Out Blitz (2023) ...

    Thanks - that's kind of how I was leaning but didn't want to commit to Henry only to see him inactive in the night game. Now that he has been declared out, I guess I'll try for the next man up (Otton) and hope for the best.

    Week 16 All-Out Blitz (2023) ...

    Who is the best bet to score a TD: C. Otton v JAC M. Gallup @ MIA T. Burks v SEA T. Allgeier v IND And if he plays would H. Henry @ DEN be a better bet than any of the above?

    Random Thoughts Week 15

    It sure looks like it. I'd guess Kelce will still have a role the rest of this season and into the playoffs, but next season and beyond Rice is poised for a dominant sure-fire WR1 role. Age and celebrity catching up with Kelce? Tough to say how fast the decline will come - I wouldn't be surprised if next season is very mediocre with a couple of 2-3 TD weeks mixed in.

    Random Thoughts Week 15

    The fact that Howell can't get the ball to Commanders best receiver suggests that Howell is not the answer (or has a lot to learn). Brissett comes in and immediately finds McLaurin for a TD and more yards than he has had in the last two games.

    The Official Week 15 FU Thread

    FU McLaurin - it's only been one series, but I can already tell that you are not part of the game plan.

    Random Thoughts Week 15

    McLaurin is the most invisible "alpha" receiver in the league.

    TNF Discussion: Chargers at Raiders - Wk15

    Good grief! The Raiders may be looking to top the 70 that the Dolphins put up earlier this season.

    tanking

    In addition to financial incentives, take away draft picks or not invite an owner back, but really only for the most blatant forms (starting clearly injured/suspended/bye week players). The problem is that it is impossible to tell if someone is tanking or just playing a hunch so long as they are starting active players. This last week if someone benched Diggs, JJ, Swift and Gus for Chase Brown, Tyjae Spears, Wandale Robinson and AT Perry would they be tanking? the results would say not. Now, starting Aaron Jones, Jonathan Taylor, M. Thomas and T. McLaurin would be viewed differently

    MNF Discussion: Packers at Giants - Wk14

    Packers coaches/playcallers are not very smart and deserve to lose. They should not have been in any rush to score. They could have pounded the ball three times from the 6 yard line draining the clock and/or the Giants time outs.

    It's now clear

    Perhaps. Let's at least finish the season, if not letting Mahomes finish his career before having the discussion. There were plenty of snippets of Brady's career that weren't glorious (remember "were on the Cincinati"?)

    It's now clear

    It's a silly argument: Eli 2 - Brady 0 hth Super Bowls, but no one in their right mind would say Brady didn't surpass Eli.
  22. Showboat

    It's now clear

    After Mahomes has experienced the prolonged success of Brady for 10 or 15 years, we can begin the discussion. Until then Mahomes is still one of the elite QBs in the league who has a chance to ultimately challenge Brady for the GOAT title. Let's not forget that Brady also had a few down years of his own and Mahomes still has his team in contention for a post-season run (no shame in being <Brady at this point).

    TNF Discussion: Patriots @ Steelers - Wk14

    Well, at least we know it's not Hunter Swift.

    2024 who are you stashing

    Brown is a good one - also A.T. Perry, Jalin Hyatt, Roschon Johnson, Tyjae Spears (though the last couple are probably already rostered).
