I feel bad for anyone who is actually influenced by someone they saw on the internet.

I’m going to see if they’ll let me announce a pick next year! I think a dude in a wheelchair announcing a pick with a talking communication device would be an awesome idea!

Trading up is a little easier when you go into to draft and already have 2 first round picks (Eagles). Then 1st , 2nd, 3rd round picks as well as 3 4th round picks, 4 6th round picks and a 7th (Patriots).  With the Eagles having 2 first round picks makes it easier to let some of those later round picks go and the Pats having a ton of mid round picks gave them more to trade.  Where as the Bengals originally only had 1 pick in each round.

Gone: D. Jones, Freeland, Adebewore, Johnson, Zavala, Ringo, Phillips, Bennett.

I'd love: Scott, Abanikanda, Wypler, Kuntz, Whyle, Jones, Wasilhington, Trice.

Real question. How often has a RB ever done nothing for 4 years and then broken out in their 5th NFL season? RB sure feels like a position where you either show you can be good in the first 2 years or you're never good.

KC being aggressive again. Trading a 5th round pick to move up in the 4th.


RE: ***2023 NFL Draft Thread*** - Bengal Dude - 04-29-2023

I still think Commanders is a weird name. 


RE: ***2023 NFL Draft Thread*** - Isaac Curtis: The Real #85 - 04-29-2023

Daniels gone. I would not use a 4th on OG at this point. Maybe McClendon.

Perine?

On a side note: It appears ESPN finally grew a brain and stopped putting McShay and Kiper on the same broadcast.

Kiper was on ESPN days 1-2 and McShay was on ABC days 1-2 with the NCAAF gameday crew. ABC broadcast > ESPN's, but I only have ABC so I'm stuck with Kiper today *sadness*

But at least they aren't together anymore, which was a mess.

Unlike us old folks who bought Ringo's disco solo album because "Well, he was in the Beatles, so......"

Same, too bad, still like Mitchell and Laborn or Chase Brown who is the best pass protector in this class

I love how the pick announcer gets all the fans hyped up, then announces a pick no one knows......then the fans in the crowd yell loudly for 1 second, then all get "puzzled WTF is that looks on their faces", then the "fuk it, I'll just yell louder" attitude for the unknown player. Hilarious.

Not as weird as being a professional sports team named after a skin color.

Nothing gets me to disconnect more quickly than someone calling themselves an influencer of any kind.  It's like using "Thief" or "Manipulator" or "liar" as your job description and people being ok with it.

No doubt with several picks in total you can. Good point

No doubt that was a terrible name. Just feels like another terrible Dan Snyder decision in a long line of terrible Dan Snyder decisions.


RE: ***2023 NFL Draft Thread*** - Isaac Curtis: The Real #85 - 04-29-2023

10 picks left. Multiple guys at offensive spots I'd be happy with here:

TE: Kuntz, Whyle, Mallory, maybe Allen
WR: Scott, Jones, Washington, Perry
RB: Abanikanda, McBride, Brown
C: Wypler
CB: Trice, Rush
