Belichick went 11-5 with Matt Cassell, 6-0 with Jimmy G and won 10 games with a rookie Mac Jones. Would he have won as many championships as he did without Brady? Probably not but the dude can coach and has proven he can win games with other QBs at the helm.

This.

Id much rather trade up as well assuming the cost isn't outrageous. Depth is always important in the NFL which is why you always want as many picks as possible but I think we're at the point this year where we are probably better served with quality instead of quantity.

It would be nice to pickup another 1st for next year but my trepidation with that trade is just the general consensus of this draft. Maybe Holmes's board is different than all the national guys but assuming it isn't if you go by the national board you would essentially be trading back to the 2nd round with that Minny trade cause I have yet to find one that has more than 20 players with 1st round grades.

Id take Tennessee or Houston's deal in a heartbeat. Minny would need to pony up more for me to trade back that far cause given this draft you're unlikely to get a true first round talent picking at 23.

This. To me the stuff you mentioned is the most important qb attribute(s) along with accuracy of course. If you have that ability chances are youre going to be a great qb unless your arm is a total noodle like Brees was at the very end of his career. Hell and even then when he couldn't throw it 30 yards he was still better than many of the physically gifted qbs that had no other skills.

Yeah I just started hearing some buzz about him the last week, he's definitely the type of receiver I want us to target so if the injury history doesn't bring up any red flags for the team then Id be fine taking him with one of our 2nds. I already advocated Tillman there but if they like Wilson or somebody else better Im cool with it.

Im skeptical of the SP going forward as well. If Skubal and Manning come back strong then that will of course help but that is far from a sure thing, given their history their more likely to get reinjured than come back strong. Boyd has been serviceable but given his history of collapsing Im always worried about him falling off a cliff. Turnbull has looked better the last couple starts and if he keeps that trend up he can be a reliable piece but again I'm a little skeptical of that considering it's his first year back from TJ. In the end it has potential to be serviceable if things go the Tigers way but let's be real its been awhile since that has happened so I'm erring on the side of things not going that way.

Michigan got two more 4 star recruits including the number 2 TE in the country. With those additions UM moves up to number 1 in 247s rankings. Assuming they keep all of them this is a major turnaround vs. last year and an obvious welcome sight. Admittedly ignorant to the NIL stuff but did Michigan finally make the changes needed to beable to recruit with the big boys?

It took us 43 games in each of last 2 seasons to get double digit wins so as long as we avoid a 10 game losing streak we'll atleast beat that mark this year!

I don't think we lead the league in total but out of our 9 wins only 3 have been by multiple runs so we may head in percentage of close wins.

Foley with an impressive performance as he closes the door for the Tigers as they clinch the all important series win!

As a pro wrestling fan I've been to many WWE shows where they light off fireworks comparable to 4th of July in small basketball/hockey venues. Went to one at Cobo Hall several years back where it took like a half hour for the smoke to clear so you could see the ring.

Greene's 3 true outcomes are K, weak groundball to right side and the occasional walk.

Good to hear about Skubal. Hopefully there won't be any setbacks and we can get him back relatively soon.

Yeah this is where I'm at. I know they still suck but atleast personally I have more faith in this offense than last year. Like last year I legit would chalk the game up as a loss once the other team got 2 runs, I genuinely didnt expect us to score the 3 runs needed to win that game. Now I may say it jokingly but I still am not completely giving up the game like I would have last year.

Levis one of those guys that teams salivate over what he could be based off his physical talents despite the red flags in other areas namely decision making. I think they are of the mindset that stuff like that can be corrected or coached and maybe in a sense in can be but Id imagine if you look back on history it isn't as easy to do that as teams think or hope. Once in awhile you do get the Josh Allen so I think just that hope is what drives teams to still take a shot with guys like this.

As of now they still got a home and home with Oklahoma in 25 and 26 as well so this appears to be the last year for awhile that they don't have and quality teams on their non conference schedule. Btw I guess the reason for the UT switch was because of Texas moving to the SEC now if they held the game in Austin then FOX wouldn't have the rights to broadcast iy but apparently if it's in Ann Arbor they can so they were the main reason behind the flip.

I don't know if statistically the offense is any better than last year but for some reason it feels like it's better to me. Like last year I remember going a damn near month stretch from late may to late June where we only hit like 1 or 2 HRs total. It just seem like we havent experienced patheticness like that.......yet.

Im guessing they are banking on signing him to another extension in a few years that will end up keeping his cap hit dowm then repeat that process for aslong as they want to keep him.

Lol really? I just heard them talking about the Levis odds briefly on the radio but I didn't hear where it all came from. That's crazy.

This draft kinda reminds me of the Sewell draft in terms of how many different scenarios and different directions that we could possibly go depending on how the board shook out. Nobody knew for sure if we would end up with an OT,Qb,WR or even TE if Pitts fell. Also didn't know if we were going to trade up or down since there were rumors of that as well whereas last year it was basically a given we were going one of Hutch, walker or Thibs depending on what Jax did. Same thing in the Okudah draft, barring a team trading up with Washington to take Tua leaving Chase Young for us it was basically a foregone conclusion we were going with Okudah.

I think the Grizzlies did it against the Spurs around 2010. Of course Milwaukee was doomed as soon as I picked them to win the whole thing a couple weeks ago.

Pitching has looked alot better but of course it coincides with the bats going cold outside of today's 4 run "outburst".
