    *** 2025 Draft and Season Discussion ***

    I didn’t think we had any sort of timer in this draft, especially with how unique it is with picks being made well in advance…. But lambert is on a golf trip in Florida I will text him now

    I’ll consider this matter resolved and edit the draft thread with the picks and carry on

    As I understood it he was switching his pick more or less right as RHR was submitting his own… and swapping it to a player not draft able by RHR… meaning a move away from Manaea could only help RHR… but it sounds like RHR was making his pick regardless But I see what GB is saying and think that is probably logical

    makes sense... but again I would prefer cmh or GB make the call (i'm not really a commish anyway) perhaps @RaiderHaters Revenge can review the situation and give his input...

    *** 2025 Draft and Season Discussion ***

    I believe that is the precedent.... I remember someone wanting to change a pick a few years ago and we determined that players eligibility didn't matter it was simply if another pick had been made after. sounds like the picks were bang-bang? looking at the pick thread his pick was the last to be made again i'm abstaining for family ties reasons

    im going to abstain.... i was going to make a pick but will hold off and see what @cmh6476 or @GuardBum think

    Yikes. Yates was a bit of a fallback option for me after Fairbanks although I clearly never would have gotten him. Think it will be a great pick though

    I had already assumed Randy would not be a Ray this year , despite his diminishing numbers I love the guy but Snell is far and away the top player on my draft eligible list. So I had already planned to be going SP/SP. the bones never seem to be all that kind to me when it comes to trickle down effect. For example if Padres pick before me in round 1 and have access to Soto, or even just prefer Machado to Snell, I get Randy AND Snell... I think a lot of the time its better to pick after the teams who share your top players so long as they have better options than your guys. Also kind of thought Fairbanks wouldn't be a 2nd/3rd rounder

    Packers submit proposal to ban "tush push"

    I'd like to see it removed as well. At the end of the day, do I really care very much? probably not.... but for arguments sake, if a ball carrier gains 3 yards and is then pushed BACK by the defense, they don't lose the ground they gained. Forward progress is called. Why should a ball carrier be allowed to be pushed FORWARD by teammates from behind? As soon as pushing begins, the play should be blown dead for progress.

    Jets QB Rumor Connects Garrett Wilson to Justin Fields Signing

    Maybe not. My entire post was about the Jets though

    Jets QB Rumor Connects Garrett Wilson to Justin Fields Signing

    I don’t want them to trade for Stafford (unless it’s somehow cheap) but I would view it as similar to having kept Rodgers or signing a Cousins or Carr if and after they are cut. Again these are guys you want for 2 years MAX while a rookie sits and learns ala Jordan Love The bonus is that a few of these guys can actually make the Jets playoff contenders and more with the amount of talent on this roster. When you have Wilson and Hall on offense and a line that recently invested in Fashanu, Tippman, still has AVT. Maybe they draft Tet as well. If they can retain DJ Reed, they will have the Williams Bros, Sauce, Jermaine Johnson back and Will McDonald looked good last year. Etc.

    Mock drafts are biased

    I love Emeka and he is not underrated. I’ve rarely seen him fall out of round 1 mocks anymore

    Mock drafts are biased

    RBs shouldn’t normally go very high so this just seems like people projecting a Jerry pick

    Are you calling Mason Graham boring? I think he’s going to be a stud. Flashy picks to the Raiders doesn’t prove whatever point you’re trying to make. Raiders have a long history of going with the fastest or most intriguing athlete so this is less about being cool and more that the Al Davis MO has stuck. Hunter Jeanty and Sanders feel like classic Raider picks

    With the way we drive when sober (like a-holes) and drunk (intoxicated a-holes), I wouldnt trust a magnetic mount

    I don’t. My golf buddies all use some desert fox one that straps to the side of a cart Desert Fox Phone Caddy you can get plain black or other solid colors for a few bucks cheaper probably.
  21. I threw $5 on LA when they were down 4-0. I thought they were on hole 11 but they were about to start 12. They won 12, won 13 with a hammer, won 14, tied 15 and won the overtime. I feel like the +odds should have been greater but I’ll take the $70 win
