Steve Smith Ranked #7 All Time!

lol from the Michael Vick one:

Imagine being on a team where you are coming closer and closer to a championship every season.

Every single one of your teammates click and get the job done in a big way.

Then, all of a sudden, the leader of your team is facing jail time for dog fighting.

Yeah the 2007 Falcons having just fired Jim Mora and coming off two non-playoff seasons in a row were right on the cusp of the promised land until Vick threw it all away. No wonder there are still people who think he's a good quarterback.

As for the Steve Smith stuff, so long as he's not murdering hookers and passing out with hypodermic needles in his arm on South Tryon I'm not overly worried about him considering how little his "leadership issues" seem to actually affect things on the field.

He did punch two teammates in the face and I've heard he acts like a complete ass hole a good bit. So I can see why some one would rate him that high. Then again I don't think he is that bad of a teammate. I think he just has his really bad moments.

This article makes no sense at all. its apparently being a bad teammate to retire to follow what you love (ricky williams) or for pursuing illegal activity (even though a good portion of these players participate in illegal activity as well), but yet it's perfectly acceptable to throw away a franchise (and it's fans and players) if they won't allow you to financial cripple them (peppers, haynesworth, revis, etc)?

Also, where's ty cobb?

    • Here is how this draft could get mind-blowingly complicated--Interesting comment about Jags floating the Jeanty idea to lure Chicago into a trade.  I have to think Ben Johnson is going to duplicate in many ways the success he had in Detroit, and I have to think their free agency was following the blueprint Carolina designed last year (one that the Saints designed before them with Brees) and they upgraded all of their interior linemen.  RT in Chicago is set; Johnson loves RT Darnell Wright.  However, at LT, Braxton Jones is coming off a December injury and is considered to be in a competition for the position this year by at least a few fans on the Bears Wire.  His PFF score, however, was solid, posting an 80+ score in pass protection and 70+ score in run blocking.  He is in his prime.  However, in some of their fan mocks, the Bears are taking a LT.  I thought they needed an Edge to play 4-3 strong side across from Sweat, but they signed Odeyingbo to a pretty big contract in March. For the Bears, in my view, it comes down to TE or Running Back. Kmet is their #1 TE and he had 474 yards in that role, which was 25th in the NFL last season for TEs.  Adding Warren would help upgrade the TE spot and give them the ability to add around an estimated 80 yards of production per game.  The Bears have D'Andre Swift at RB, but could use a RB to pair with him for a desired 2 RB attack.  So if I am Da Bears, I stay at 10 and take Warren.  If the Jags want to move on from Etienne, then they will take Jeanty. I think, if I were the Jags (with 10 picks this year) I would take Mason Graham and not try to get an 11th pick.  It is a need position, and it seems to me the only reason they are toying with the idea of moving on from Etienne is because Jeanty is on the board.  That, to me, would be a luxury pick. New GM, I think he does not get cute--they take Graham if they stay at 5.  I might say the Jags' biggest need is Corner.  #5 is too rich for Will Johnson, but remember, they have 10 picks.  could they move up with Cleveland and take Hunter, giving them a CB and WR threat?  To me, with the draft capital they have, that is the move they should make.  Cleveland then could move back to #5.  Remember, Nick Chubb is an aging (29) free agent coming off an injury--so he is gone.  With an additional second rounder, the Browns move back and take Jeanty to give Flacco a running game. The Jags pick is very interesting, but I would not be surprised to see them move up. 
    • Walker is a good player and comes from a great defensive minded school but there a questions about him. He could be a superstar or bust.  You trade down and will get a player with similar concerns and you jump into the middle of the second round where there are some good players.  YOU'RE not getting a 1st next year and a 2nd for 8. These mock simulators give you fair value for the most part. I've tried and most counter offers were rejected.  We trade down get a good first round graded player and jump into the middle of 2nd round and not having to wait for 57.  Plus if a stud falls to the late first or early 2nd round we could package 46 and 57 and get him.
