  1. I thought he died
  2. No snuff videos posted today? Dang, this thread is slipping.
  3. I wonder if Andretti is even an option anymore since they can seem to keep their mouths shut publicly trashing F1.
  4. In Grandpa’s day 15+ yards was a deep ball. That’s not a realistic number anymore. 30 yards is more representative of a deep ball but that sort of misses what we are talked about with Goff. His concerns are the shot plays with high arch passes of 40+ air yards and that’s where the criticism comes on his accuracy. He was actually much better last season but I’d be interested to see his career completion percentage on balls over 40+ in the air and how he stacks up to the league. If those numbers are above average then I’d agree maybe his deep ball concerns are unwarranted.
  5. This is being discussed in the NBA draft thread.
  6. Damn that is pretty spot on
  7. This quote from Jeremiah is something else. Ceiling is a euphemism for Dream Scenario. It’s maybe a 1 in 20 shot they hit the ceiling, yet these pundits treat it like it’s a coin flip.
  8. The Lions scouting department spent enough time at Florida games scouting O’Cyrus Torrence that I’m hoping they saw enough to see Richardson to say nope.
  9. The initial suggestion on PFF was a 2024 4th
  10. @KL2 brought up an excellent point about how contracts are structured. We’ve seen teams like Rams, 49ers, and Bucs all continue to sign players and backload the deals and spread out the signing bonus. They keep kicking the bucket down the road knowing it will come due some day but in the meantime they can put the best possible team on the field. They also understand that the cap is only going up and a number that looks impossible to fit in the moment will be possibly in a few years as the cap rises. Also a team like the Lions that drafts well should feel confident they can draft later round starters on cheap 4 year rookie deals that will help the overall cap in the future.
  11. Theoretically, they could work out a 4 year deal for Tee that would finish right when Jamo would be due for a 2nd contract.
  12. https://syndication.bleacherreport.com/amp/2702414-after-5-years-of-byu-and-its-honor-code-jamaal-williams-is-free-what-now.amp.html Article is 6 years old but is fascinating at how much he is still the same person with the same character. He’s still working closely with his uncle as his trainer. Long article but absolutely worth the read and it tells the whole story of BYU.
  13. I don’t get the Addison love. Great college player but he’s tiny. Not sure he’s suited for the NFL game.
  14. 1000% this. I remember my best friends car that had counter weights and a completely modified chassis. We both started with the same kit but our finished cars looked totally different. I remember he won the first local pinewood and we went to a regional meet and it was all Big 3 engineer kids.
  15. Karun speaks truth.
  16. Interesting
  17. As described above, the money is there for them to resign the guys they want and either take a shot a one marquee FA like a Payne or Dean, 2 mid tier, or a bunch of cheap fillers.
  18. Chris “Clickbait” Trapasso from cbssports.com is up to his old tricks again. I’m not going to post the link but his latest mock has the Colts trading to 1 to take Richardson. Lions go Witherspoon and Mayer
  19. The text messages will make that determination. If it turns out his lawyer is full of shit and Miller knew about the gun being in his car, knew that an altercation happened and a shooting was going down, then he’s fucked and nobody is taking him. The texts before and after will get subpoenaed and will tell all.
  20. Because nothing is more important than wins, Alabama is playing Miller tonight at South Carolina. As expected, the fans are brutal.
  21. Agree but from a PR standpoint, I’m not sure a global organization like the NBA can let a small town Alabama police department be the sole determiner on the morality of the situation and if it makes sense for the NBA for Miller to be in the league right now. We’ve see recent situations in baseball and hockey where players were not allowed to play for past moral outrages even if the law said it was ok.
  22. it’s probably best that he doesn’t get indicted. He’s not ever going to jail and will just use it to grift more money through his “legal defense fund”. He actually may welcome an indictment to pad his pockets even more.
  23. He’s undraftable at this point. Maybe things become clearer and he’s exonerated but the story seems to be moving in the opposite direction. At this point, it sure looks like he was an accomplice to a Murder and Alabama, Nate Oats, and Tuscaloosa PD covered it up to keep their dream season alive.
  24. Watch Holmes go out and sign Gerald Everett and blow up everyone’s theories on how he views TE’s.
