VA has weird contrarian results where gov elected is almost always of other party in White House.
Terry McAuliffe was a god awful boring choice. And they keep Trump from coming to Va. That was the key.
Youngkin is a weasel who has no political future. He is just going through the MAGA list: stolen elections, woke, communist. Yawn. He does not believe it. Wearing his stupid vest, endorsing 10 wacko MAGAs who all lost in 2022.
Va GOP was sick and tired of losing state wide elections for 12 years, so they were all in on a guy who was "normal".
And his 17-year old son tried to vote twice for his dad.
Carolina, Houston, Indy, Seattle, LV, Atl, Tenn, NE, Wash and TB (and maybe Det and Minn) could use a young QB.
There are 3, maybe 4 with Levis, or 5 if you include Hooker, QBs - I expect a lot of trade ups to get one of them
maybe. three years of failure might be enough for him and the team. one thing is that the first 40 games are just brutal. if Hinch can survive that (and maybe he does not), maybe he makes it through the year. but neither Harris or Ilitch are going to fire themselves.
it looks like 4 QBs in the top 5 is more and more possible, leaving Carter (likely) or Anderson (possible but not likely) there for Holmes. If the QBs are all gone (and Holmes did not move up to take one), doubtful anyone is motivated enough to trade up to 6 considering lack of other elite talent in the draft.
Anderson seems to be a guy that gets at least a brisk walk if not a job to the podium.
Carter makes too much sense to pass up.
Staying put might just be the best and easiest decision.
Every day, AJ rolls out 7 or 8 of Al Avila's favorite players so Scott "Calculated Risk" Harris will have an opportunity to see if they really do suck.
Narrator: they suck.
W Anderson, T Wilson, M Murphy, and K White (and maybe L Van Ness) all look to be uber-athletic, 3 down DEs.
White might have the highest ceiling among this group; and could be available early in the second round.
I rarely see OL listed as a need, but to me the need is high. The back up OT is the starting RG, who missed last season with a back injury, and is in the last year of his deal, just like the starting LG and their main back up, who also back ups an oft injured C.
I have seen a few mocks with Skoronski available at 18 - but I doubt he will be.
I'm sure these meetings are important, but this meeting is really important - more important for the Lions than Carter.
Holmes and Campbell have the franchise pointed in the right direction. I'll trust what ever call they (and Glenn) make on Carter.
good; would have been really annoying to have a 32-year old eating up at bats
Schoop won't last to June
McKinstry has a solid AAA track record of what Harris claims he wants from batters, and the LAD contingent knows him
