9 games until the quarter turn; even going just 4-5 puts them on a 89 win pace; Cleveland looks legit, though not this legit; Royals probably will fade; should be a fun summer!

pretty sure that's 10 no-hit innings in a row over the last 3 starts for Jobe

looks like Columbia nonsense is over; NYPD will be permanent presence on campus thru graduation; protestors overplayed their hand and accomplished nothing.

not sure this is accessable to all, but this is great article, explaining how GOP exploits the stupidity of the progressive left. they are not useful idiots - they are VERY useful idiots https://nymag.com/intelligencer/article/anti-israel-encampments-protest-palestine-republicans-trump-israel-anti-semitism.html Not every protester joining the encampments shares this goal, of course. But it is the goal of the people directing the protests. That is why their slogans and chants call for elimination rather than coexistence. It was instructive when left-wing Israel critic Norman Finkelstein pleaded with protesters at Columbia to change their slogan to “From the river to the sea, Palestinians” — rather than “Palestine” — “will be free,” only for protesters to mock him by immediately repeating the original chant.

for 2025 draft, Brad has his own pick in rounds 1, 2, 5, 7; TB's pick in round 6; and and Dallas' pick in round 7. He also has one pick in round 4. Does anyone know if the 4th round pick sent to Philly in the Vaki trade was Detroit's or a return of the Eagles' pick (from the Swift trade)?

If Levi makes it thru 2024, plays 14+ games, and then moves on, I think it is A++. Otherwise just A+

Patriots?

Good problem to have; one injury coud clear it all up; carrying Manu all season with the real possibility he never dresses once could be worth it long term, but it is a short term cost

Brad and Dan know what they got more than we do. But no WR? I would have bet almost any amount of money that in this draft, DEEEEPPPPPP in WR, they would have picked one. And I don't know what Brenden Rice did, and I don't want to know.

164 and 201 went to Philly; they just have 205, and 210, and 249

6-8, 350 lbs Canadian OT SUMMARY: Werner “Giovanni” Manu was born in Tonga before moving to Canada at age 11. He was a natural at basketball, then started playing football when he attended Pitt Meadows Secondary in 2013. Between his freshman and sophomore years in high school, he grew five inches and put on almost 80 pounds. He continued to play basketball (averaged more than 30 points per game as a senior) but was recruited for football. He enrolled at the University of British Columbia and earned the starting left tackle job as a freshman. He was a four-year starter for the Thunderbirds, also seeing time at guard. His unpolished tendencies are easy to spot on tape — he plays too narrow and off balance in the run game with late hands in pass pro. But he moves really well for his size, espec ially out in space, and punishes anyone in his way. Overall, Manu isn’t NFL ready, but he is a highly intriguing developmental tackle with rare athletic tools that might get him drafted. Manu is a raw offensive tackle prospect with rare size, long arms and good quickness for his size. He didn't play against a high level of competition at the college level, but he is a powerful run blocker who overwhelms defenders on tape. He flashes a strong punch, and his wide frame makes it tough to get around him when he is in pass protection. -- Steve Muench

everybody is guessing; no one knows; right now, BH does not even know

USA Today A Yahoo SPorts A- Atletic A CBS B NFL.com B+ NYPost A PFF Very Good Walter Football - Trade A; Pick A+

feels like solid player will be there if BH stays at 61 also feels like BH would move up to grab a guy he sees as an impact talent and it also feels like he could trade down as next pick at 164 whatever he does, fine by me!

Athletic: For Detroit, this fills an obvious need and it comes in the form of a perfect fit for Detroit’s culture. Arnold is a confident corner who plays with swag, he loves to work, he loves tough coaching and he loves to win. Arnold also gets to reunite with Brian Branch in a new-look Detroit secondary. Another great value pick. Grade: A CBS Prisco 24. Lions: Terrion Arnold, CB, Alabama Grade: B The Lions needed some corner help, so it makes sense to make a move to get one. Arnold gives them another Alabama secondary player to go with Brian Branch, another player with versatility.

SI: Among the teams exploring a trade up are the Detroit Lions, who are sitting at 29. After two consecutive years of multiple first-round picks (which brought them Aidan Hutchinson, Jameson Williams, Jahmyr Gibbs and Jack Campbell), the Lions are likely looking for an edge opposite Hutchinson, or perhaps another corner.

I could be wrong, but one minor complaint is that I think BH has been slow playing these extensions for some reason. months ago he could have "set the WR market" at a lower number than 30M. same is true for Goff, who is going to get 50M per.

Biden is about to sign Ukraine, Israel, Taiwan, and TikTok bill in a few minutes. Senate passed 80-19. Another bipartisan win for Biden.

looks like Secret Service is preparing for possibility of lock up. MAGA wackos would have you believe SS will get into shoot out with bailiffs

Wednesday's are for motion practice, with no jury; so they can send him off to holding in the basement for the morning; and bring him out in handcuffs at lunch, and the judge can ask him if he is still feeling frisky

for some reason, Brad is trending on twitter. not sure why. I love a really crazy mock draft. A few nuggets out there: yahoo sports has BH taking DT Michael Hall in R1 PFF has BH taking 2 late RBs CBS has BH passing on R1 to pick up first picks in Day 2 and 3 from Carolina (not crazy at all)

Newton had a broken foot at some point last year and kept playing - had it surgically fixed - not sure if you downgrade him for injury, or upgrade him for toughness and see his very good-not-great numbers and dream what could have been if healthy all season. no idea if he fits what they want at DT, but talent-wise he seems to be worth 29th pick
