  1. Beasley looks like a beast to me. Von Miller clone except he's a lot stronger. 35 reps is ridiculous. If he doesn't go in the top 10 I'll be shocked.
  2. Were they not running the triple option yet? They were definitely run heavy as hell, that's for sure. Meanwhile, DGB was playing at pass happy Missouri. He never led the team in receiving yardage and accounted for a little over 20% of Missouri's receiving yardage in his two seasons there. Calvin Johnson or Randy Moss... puleeeeeze
  3. Dave Gettleman values pass rushers over seemingly everything else in life and he just let a proven elite NFL pass rusher walk due to off field concerns. Y'all really thing he's going to spend a high draft pick on a WR who has significant off field concerns and is a pure potential pick? Yes, DGB is just potential, that's it. The guy has less than 1300 total receiving yards in college. That isn't proven production, that's potential. Next Calvin Johnson or Randy Moss? Please. Randy Moss had over 1800 receiving yards and 26 receiving TDs - yes, 26! - in his one season at Marshall. Calvin Johnson racked up just shy of 3000 receiving yards in 3 years at GT while playing a damn triple option offense. He had 1202 receiving yards his final season accounting for over half of GT's total receiving yardage.
  4. Also, LOL @ RavensInsider dude breaking yet more Panthers news. Dude is the best Panthers beat writer out there while actually covering the Ravens. How embarrassing is that?
  5. I wish you could combine Thompson and Williams. Either give Williams Thompson's athleticism or give Thompson William's attitude and nasty streak. You'd probably have a 1st round OT prospect.
  6. Also give a shout out to my hometown brewers in Morganton, NC. Catawba Valley and Fonta Flora. CV is the cooler spot to hang out, but FF easily has the better beer.
  7. I live in CO and everyone probably already knows most of the major ones (Oskar Blues, Avery, New Belgium, etc.) so I'll name some really good smaller ones. Cannonball Creek in Golden Mountain Sun in Boulder Living The Dream in Littleton Equinox in Fort Collins Dry Dock in Aurora
  8. And I agree with him. We lost no one of note while getting Ginn back, adding a savvy veteran CB, greatly upgrading special teams, and even though Oher and Martin aren't future HOFers they're better than Bell and Faucoult.
  9. Yike. Sub-230 or a pass rusher? You can get away with that in college, but in the NFL? Most of the top pass rushers last year in the NFL were 260+. In fact, there wasn't a single double digit sack guy last year who is listed at a playing weight lighter than 250. You have to get all the way down to #41 on the sack list to find a guy sub-250 and that's Seattle's Bruce Irvin who's still listed at 248. I just don't know where a 230ish pound pass rushing specialist fits in the NFL. This guy may be in for an all out free fall in the draft.
  10. Haven't watched Coated and don't plan to, but still have an opinion? Why? Who loves Conley? Certainly not me. He's a track star trying to play football.
  11. In a different era. The Trent Dilfters and Brad Johnsons of the world aren't going winning Super Bowls in today's pass happy NFL. And yes, Russell Wilson is better than those guys.
  12. Seems like we've been sniffing around the top rated safeties in the draft for about the last three years.
  13. The guy is 230 pounds at only 6'. Any chance he could play OLB?
  14. Not a fan, but I don't mind doing our due diligence on him. I never freak out about workouts. If they work him out and fall in love with him, there will be good reason for it.
  15. Play calling? I don't think you draw up a play where your QB runs around like a mad man while being chased by half the defense and then throws up a wounded duck throwing across his body. That's a TD going the other direction more often than not.
  16. sure, I'll take a crack at it Breshard Perriman - 2nd Jaelen Strong - 1st Devin Smith - 2nd Nelson Agholor - 2nd Phillip Dorsett - 2nd Dorial Green-Beckham - 4th Sammie Coates - 3rd Justin Hardy - 3rd Chris Conley - 4th
  17. Maybe so. We'll see. Hell, I hope you're right. With that said, they aren't bringing him in to block. They're bringing him in as a legit #1 receiving threat and redzone target, two things they sorely lacked last year.
  18. All I'm saying is that Cam carries a much bigger burden in our offense than RW does in the Seahawks' offense. In his career, Cam has accounted for 23.7% of our rushing carries at 7.5 carries per game and a whopping 46.5% of our rushing TDs. He's done this while also averaging 31 passing attempts per game. He's personally responsible for 71.7% of our total yards and 72.8% of our total TDs. That is hurt by the fact that he missed two games last season. Accounting for those two games, those numbers jump to 74% and 75.1%, respectively. Russell Wilson on the other hand has accounted for 19.6% of the Seahawks rushing carries at 6.4 carries per game and 22% of their rushing TDs. He's done this while averaging 26 passing attempts per game. He's personally responsible for 66.6% (because he's the devil) of the Seahawks total yards and 66.9% of the Seahawks total TDs. I'm not really exaggerating when I say that Cam truly IS our offense.
  19. I'm sorry you're mad. It's okay to just say that you were wrong. It happens to everyone. Yes, I'm aware there are more variables at play, but we can simply go off of the information we have available. Strangely, you want to act like the only variables at play in LaFell's production in Carolina vs. NE are Cam vs. Brady. Would you like me to show you my MBA?
  20. Demonstrably false. He is MUCH better with Cam. In two seasons with Cutler: 101 catches on 178 targets for a 56.7% catch percentage with a 10.05ypc average and averaging 508 yards per season on 89 targets per season. In four seasons with Cam: 271 catches on 425 targets for a 63.7% catch percentage with a 11.85ypc average and averaging 802 yards per season on 106 targets per season. If you drop the first season where his catch percentage was much lower than the last three at 50%, you get a catch percentage of 67.4% So, let's do the extrapolation for Cutler... Based on the averages, if Olsen averaged those 106 targets per season with Cutler, he'd average: 60 catches for 603 yards.
