    I turned 38 today and have lost 52lbs since February. I’m very rarely ever proud of myself, but I’m feeling pretty proud today and thought I’d share. Carry on.

  • At this point, I’d like to see a former HC on the staff, but the biggest coaching news left is whether Stout stays.  BOOOOOOOOM

Miami should have gone Sewell in round 1 and Marshall in round 2.

Can’t you be positive for once?  Sheesh.  

Dude, you're scaring me now.

Hurts midget arse behind a 6'6" center lol that's gonna be funny.

Think long term... he's got bad knees, and he's not a small guy.  

ACL’s are not that big of a long term issue. We aren’t in the 1980’s anymore.

Bigger injury concern for me are the ankles.

He has blown out both knees...

This guy has Sidney Jones written all over him. 

To be fair, Sidney's Achilles wasn't the issue.

Medical nightmare is fun to read with our medical staff. 

Is going to come out to the song dreams and nightmares like we did at super bowl LII?

Strong statement from Baldy.  He was the one guy who stated Mailata was going to be a player TWO years before anyone else.  

He also praised JJAW

Well if Baldinger like him, I really hate him.

Sure.   And Humphrey was the top rated C, and still on the board, without the injury concern.  🤔    

If there’s one position I think we have to give the benefit of the doubt it’s OL. If Stoutland wants this guy over Humphrey then you listen to him 10/10.

I would've went with the best safety in the draft, but I don't mind getting the best center.

I don’t think he is. Howie with little regard for draft capital now too. That was a bad pick

Probably gets buy two surgeries get one free in his defense.

If you want an o-lineman fine, take one who is HEALTHY that can help you now. He joins the rest of our oft injured o-line. Yippee 

Not arguing that. But you’re putting stock in a mock from Bengals writers, who seem to ignore OL entirely. 

 

Well, the Eagles pick an IOL that has all his major surgeries behind him having injured everything.   Like his play but he was a medical scratch from my board.  Howie trying to be the smartest guy yet again.

This.

Just from a strategic perspective, we DON’T need immediate starters. We aren’t one or two players from winning the super bowl. We need long term blue chip talent. We’ll see if this kid can stay healthy. If so, should be a good pick.

Would be nice to draft a guy at #37 that doesn't have that caveat.   Round 3, sure.  Round 2... nah, wait a little.   Hold your water.   OR... take the trade back and get that guy a few picks later and mitigate the risk... was that not the argument about trading back and then targeting a QB after moving back 6 spots in Round 1 when there were rumors about Lance being a target there?

Clearly you are missing the injury history of the pick.   That is the reason people are upset.  It's not about the player, it's about how often he's not on the field.

Everyone loves this kid, he photobombed an interview with a cartwheel, so he’s recovering quickly but he’s already torn both ACL’s and had at least one ankle surgery. 
 He’s 22, and will have osteoarthritis in both knees by the time he’s 26 at 330lbs.   
 If Howie or Jeff ever get caught in public saying Metcalf was an injury scare the person closest needs to kick them in their sack, I’ll start the Go Fund Me. 

This guy has the legs of a 60 year old but let's take him at the top of the second.

It’s Baldy he also said Jamar Chaney would be the next Urlacherz

Is Stoutland a medical examiner or doctor? If not then he shouldn't have a say in this  

One trend you’ll notice that makes me ok with this pick: 

Look at how dominant OL units are for every Super Bowl winner from past several years

We aren’t getting a starting quality corner at 70. Most rookie corners suck. 

Thomas Davis came back from 3 torn ACL's to still play at a high level. 

Frank Gore I can confidently say had 2 ACL's....maybe even 3. 

But yeah, ACL's are a career ender :lol:
