NBA OFF TOPIC THREAD

Trubisky's last season was as a JR. He did not stick around for his SR season.

68%, 288 passing ypg, 8.4ypa, 30 passing TD's to just 6 picks, 157.9 Passer Rating

Maye as a JR? 63%, 300ypg, 8.5ypa, 24 passing TD's to 9 picks, 149 PR

Not true. It was his third year of eligibility, but his 4th year in college.

Not sure why they were freaking out.

They have the first pick of the 2nd round and some good WR's still available. And they added some picks.

I can understand being upset about waiting 4 hours plus and seeing your team trade out of the round. I can even understand being upset about helping the Chiefs. It terms of what the Bills want, they did great. Moved down twice, moving up picks into day 2 and within day 3 without risking losing any of the best guys available for their needs (WR, DeJean, Newton, etc). In fact, I fully expect them to trade out of 33 too. Teams always want to trade up to 33 to get the players that may have slipped.

My preference is still McConkey, who visited with the team multiple times throughout the predraft process. 49ers taking a WR seems to indicate that they could still trade one of their WRs, which could very well be with Buffalo as well.

4 yr/180 with a 100 guaranteed. He’s going nowhere

It's essentially a 2 year guaranteed contract for a QB coming off a major injury. They have their succession plan in place.

 

[shopson67]

Chiefs really got worthy

Fuck are the bills doing man

Bills are working the draft very well IMO. Two trades down without costing them their target while dramatically improving their remaining picks.

Chiefs were likely going to get Worthy at 32 anyway. They just jumped Dallas to make sure Jerry didn't actually try to go all-in, lol.

Exactly.

Eagles did great last night. They got the guy they deemed to be the best CB in the draft and they were able to do it at 22 without having to give up any other draft capital. They pick at like 50 and 53 tonight.

Unbelievable that there were no CBs off the board before 22. Great circumstance for the Eagles.

 

[shopson67]

Been a couple of hours.

Still laughing at Atlanta

If they had traded down past the Raiders, they likely lose out on QB unless they want Rattler. They stayed and picked. They can get defense later (which seemed to be the general theme to the 1st round overall, lol).

That is a stupid GM IMO. Everyone and their mother projected Worthy to the Chiefs, especially with the way the OTs came off the board ahead of them in the 1st. Their only competition for Worthy might have been Dallas.

 

[tlance]

Yeah we know how that works. Penix is starting by midseason.

Doubt it.

Cousins is a very good player.

Succession plans are overrated

Tenn should’ve traded down rather than taking another guard

I think Kc should’ve taken Newton…imagine that pass rush

Probably a mistake since guyton a better fit for Dallas anyway, but I get not taking the risk

But if you were hell bent at going wr there was a lot of depth there anyway

Why the bills traded twice

The city of Philly really benefitted by other people being laughably incompetent last night

He'll be their starting RT

Would've been interesting. They need an OT as well, but not the remaining options over Worthy apparently.

Bills could also be working a trade for a vet WR (like Aiyuk). Niners did take Pearsall....

 

[thunderc]

Doubt it.

Cousins is a very good player.

Doesn’t matter, they got another lefty Michael for the city. He will be playing sooner rather than later.

We get it sassy pants. You’re gay and you love to suck the dick. You don’t have to keep reminding all of us.

Guyton was one of my guys I hated for the Eagles. I don’t think he’s strong enough or tough enough. Playing in the B12 didn’t help him fix any of that.
