Belgium 3-0-0 (+3) 9

Algeria 1-1-1 (+1) 4

Russia 0-2-1 (-1) 2

South Korea 0-1-2 (-3) 1

 

We have finally reached the final group and it could be an important one for the USMNT and their fellow Group of Death members.  Any team coming out of G will be matched with a Group F team in the Round of 16.  The favorite here is obviously Belgium.  The darkhorse of many, Belgium seems to be overrated or underrated, depending on who you talk to.  Regardless of how you feel about them they definitely got a favorable draw here to get through their group.  I have them winning the group and taking out the USA in the Round of 16 before falling to Messi and Co. in the quarters.

 

The difference between first and second in Group F is likely the difference between a winnable game to begin the Knockout phase and a date with Germany.  I have Russia as the team that will have to be content with qualifying because they are not beating the Germans.

Belgium can compete with any team in this tournament. I think they are a lock for the quarters. I have them losing to Argentina as well, but it wouldn't really shock me if Belgium won that match.

 

Honestly I really wanted to pick them in that match, but the home continent thing was too much to sway me

      As a VT fan, powell-ryland isn't a guy I'd put very high on an NFL list. I'm nervous the development path is minimal and he's maxed out physically. I don't see a 3 down guy there.  Savion jones is the untapped potential guy. He's worth a look as that's rare size speed and length. I get it, the production isn't there. But he'd be a solid guy that late (4th) that sticks for all downs in multiple systems. Diggs is a guy that might stick 3 downs in a 3-4 as an OLB. He's built longer than APR so I get why APR is so low on this list. He's like APR that he's older for the class and worry the potential jump is smaller than some of the others.

      Speculation from local sources

      Cam Jordan said something on GMFB this morning I didn't know that took qb off the table for NO.  He said that NO has not taken a qb in the 1st round since Archie Manning.

      There is at least some speculation that sanders may go to new orleans at 9.  That makes us a logical trade partner for anyone that wants him. Even if the saints don't really want him, it benefits us if other teams think they might.  If they do and we block them, even better. If we were offered anything like the op mentions, we should accept.  Then maybe trade up for a 2nd late first rounder.  Id love to get an edge and wr late in the first.  If we could do that and add a 26 1st, that would be amazing.
