colb Posted March 25, 2016 Report Share Posted March 25, 2016 RG3 to the Browns seems a crazy move to me, they're gonna draft a QB next month anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain America Posted March 28, 2016 Report Share Posted March 28, 2016 Doesn't make much sense, I guess they can't afford to not have a hit at QB with Hue in charge. So double their chances of finding the guy, especially after the Manziel disaster. Every Mock has 49ers taking one of the QBs, Wentz or Goff. Not huge on it myself, too many holes elsewhere that a QB can't solve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain America Posted April 26, 2016 Report Share Posted April 26, 2016 It's draft week! Who do you want? I'm pretty happy that teams are reaching for the QBs as we wont sign one. We have too many weaknesses to go all in on a QB now. Hoping for an OT or an edge rusher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colb Posted April 26, 2016 Report Share Posted April 26, 2016 Laremy Tunsil (LT) or DeForest Buckner (DE) 1st round Kendall Fuller (CB) 2nd Round Artie Burns (CB) 3rd Round We need a stud CB or DE so i'd rather have Buckner, but if Tunsil's still there @ 6 it's hard not to pick him...

Captain America Posted April 26, 2016 Report Share Posted April 26, 2016 Yeah can't see Tunsil making it to us but I would be just as happy with Stanley. I'm hoping Bosa slips but can't see him getting past you guys if he does... The hype seems to have died around him though and I have no idea why. He looked so NFL ready in college.

colb Posted April 26, 2016 Report Share Posted April 26, 2016 Bosa's had some off-field stuff I think, driving while banned maybe? I think Buckner looks a better bet. I think the Cowboys are gonna go for Bosa. We should have had a mock draft/NFL fantasy league thing going on here? The good news is that there's gonna be some decent talent to go round, at least in the 1st round - as long as you've got a QB you like on the books at the moment. Good to see Brady getting his ban back as well, fuck the Pats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ca_gere Posted April 29, 2016 Report Share Posted April 29, 2016 Jets getting a nimble defensive back is good. I feel we've had our share of 300lb beasts and a Clay Matthews type might be a breath of fresh air to the defense. I bet the Dolphins leaked that Tunsil video. Some steal.

Captain America Posted May 2, 2016 Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 I quite like the niners draft. I love our pick at 7 but need Armstead from last year to take a step up this year if they are going to be dominant enough to stand up in our division. Interesting to see what will happen with our OL as well as our RT who took a year out wants to come back but he doesn't get on with the GM? I think we'll get 4/5 wins and Chip will take a QB in the first round next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoonie Posted May 5, 2016 Report Share Posted May 5, 2016 Draft chat is an odd subject because I remember the Seahawks getting panned for the draft where they took Wilson and co. I watch a lot of college football and I love seeing these dudes come to the NFL and seeing how they perform, but there are so many factors that determine success in the pros. Looking forward to seeing the Giants new guys getting out there and showing what they can do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colb Posted July 29, 2016 Report Share Posted July 29, 2016 Last Chance U on Netflix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoonie Posted August 1, 2016 Report Share Posted August 1, 2016 Have you watched All or Nothing on Amazon Prime about the season with the Cardinals? It's very similar to Hard Knocks, stylistically, and very good for it. Last Chance U is on my list to watch shortly too. It's taking a panning from coaches over here for questionable coaching and management ethics so keen to get stuck in! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colb Posted August 1, 2016 Report Share Posted August 1, 2016 I don't remember much of the actual coaching being shown - there's a fair amount of shouting and swearing in meetings and at half time, but I don't remember anything too out of order. Will take a look at All or Nothing this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoonie Posted August 1, 2016 Report Share Posted August 1, 2016 It seems to be more about the communication style, constant shouting, failure to reinforce a growth mindset, problems between the staff, apportioning blame to individuals etc. Keen to check it out for myself tho. Watching GoT S6 at the moment and then will get onto this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watching GoT S6 at the moment and then will get onto this That's probably about right, I think there are some mitigating circumstances due to the nature of the school though. Keen to hear your thoughts after you've seen it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ca_gere Posted August 1, 2016 Report Share Posted August 1, 2016 Hard Knocks, All or Nothing are both great. I will probably love Last Chance U. Will be watching that this week. I think i've watched pretty much everything football-related on netflix/amazon video. The 30 for 30s are all great - the U, one about the raiders, one about Bo Jackson, etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoonie Posted August 2, 2016 Report Share Posted August 2, 2016 Looking forward to watching it - will share my thoughts once I have (we have 7 episodes of GoT S6 to go!) 30 or 30s are awesome - even the non-football ones are awesome. The Jimmy Connors one (this is what they want) and the NC State Wolfpack one about the '83 national championship (survive and advance) are particularly special!

You're missing a real stud imo. Luck could have an outstanding year but even then unlikely to pick up Brady/Rodgers/Newton numbers. Your RBs might not get enough touches imo - I think Jones is in for a great year but that's not what always counts in fantasy, compared to your Elliots, Gurleys, Petersons who will play every snap you might struggle. Hopkins has big numbers in him but he's not consistently 100yd/game material and never will be playing for Houston. TEs are where it's at this year and you have a good one - Kelce sees a lot of the ball. Gronk, Eifert, Olson would have been better though. Montcrief and Cobb will get you points who did you grab first? 6/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Montcrief and Cobb will get you points who did you grab first? 6/10 That's the order I picked in. Its a snake draft so I drafted last (8th) in the 1st /odd rounds then 1st (9th overall) in the second/even rounds. I considered taking Gronk 9th overall as he's clearly way above all other TEs, but wanted to get a top RB. Being very new I probably didn't pick the best RB available, so woops, but I had Freeman ranked quite high. I passed on Ezekiel Elliot, Jamaal Charles, LeVeon Bell and Mark Ingram. Did I fuck up?
