How was I punked? It doesn't even make sense as a troll.  All that ended up happening was me being completely right about Carson Strong that it was going to be a struggle for him to even make the team and he ultimately was so bad that he didn't even come close. 

Most of them knew that. Apparently I was one of his only real fans.

Doubt it but hey here's hoping 

LOL .... I really don't think Jalen Reagor generates any "buzz around the league", or he'd have been traded by now.

Howie may resign himself today that it's peanuts or nothing for him, so if he's a cut candidate I could see a 2024 6th round pick coming back.

Keep trollin' brah. Here I am trying to have an earnest discussion with you, and you just can't bring yourself to it. Instead you fall back on "there's no such thing as a run first QB" when you know exactly what that means. 

 

How is it trolling? There are no carbon copy QBs out there.  Every QB has their own style, their own strengths and their own weaknesses.  There is a distinction between every QB.  

There is no such thing as a run first QB in the league.  A QB would have to run more than they pass to be run first.  That's why it's such a stupid term people like you use. 

Just now, Outlaw said:

Nah. Dump him for a day 3 pick, pick up Bowden and put Allen on the 53. 
 

Brown, Smith, Watkins, Pascal, Bowden, Allen. 

Sadly, agreed. 

That's a lot of wrs to have on a roster who's qb can't throw

So you're talking about the entire backfield...I was saying Gainwell alone should have 50-60. Maybe

Don't sleep on Scott, he'll play as much or more than Gainwell. He's a better runner and is solid in the screen game.

They need a 4th RB b/c I don't think you can count on Sanders for more than 10 games.

Nope, if it was posted, @Outlaw and I would have been rejoicing.

Go get him Howie.

He also plays QB and he is better at it than Hurts! GO HOWIE!!! GET US OUR FUTURE FRANCHISE QB!

 

Bowden will be on his third team in 2 years. Why exactly are we hyped about him?

I'm a fan of Scott. Just not in the return game. I think most of us expect them to add a rb at some point.

Maybe so. Still like our 3 at minimum. 

I thought you were busy eating breakfast? If I don’t eat breakfast, I’m Fing pissed off.

So largely the structure is very similar to a message board. You have a "server" - lets call it "Philadelphia Eagles". Then within the server there are any number of "categories" (like "TATE", "Rant n Rave", "Around the NFL" etc) and then any number of "channels" within those categories (so individual threads like the blog, or each player etc).

So that's a long-winded way of saying there isn't just one chat room (channel) but a neatly organised collection of chats under sub-categories - same as threads on a message board.

Some differences/advantages:

• Rights control - you can easily gatekeep which users or groups of users can read or post in certain channels or category of channels. You can control other rights as well like posting gifs/emojis/links/tagging people etc. So if this were a Discord server, you could have a section for those who only want to partake in "boring" intelligent discussion. I would make it so anyone can read those channels but remove posting rights for anyone disrupting the tone and intent of the section. It's more bespoke and effective than blanket banning. Of course conversely there could be sections catering to members who are more about the "fun" or whatever.
• gifs/emojis/memes/pics - the library to choose from is enormous and constantly growing. Until coming back to this board, I didn't realise how much I'd miss being able to post the perfect gif or emoji to convey my reaction to a post. It seems like a small thing but having a vast library of visual reactions to choose from makes a huge difference to the experience. And you don't have to worry about images putting load on the servers etc.
• text/voice - you can have text and voice channels. There's some servers or niche areas within servers where I spend more time in voice chat than text chat. Depending on context, it can be very useful. A voice channel during a game could be fun to try, for example.
• All in one place - currently all your message boards are their own website and so not in the same place. With Discord, all your servers are one under the other in the same place. So it's one click to navigate between different servers (message boards).

How is it if I have been gone for hours. Here you can jump to the last post and pick up right where I left off. How does that work on a discord?

 

Ill say it sounds solid once you get used to it. But I really dont like the idea of losing a whole bunch of members from here to a different place. This is home to me.

The only one of that lot I don't have on ignore is Outlaw, who I have no idea who that is.  So anyone that I was conversing with about Carson Strong actually bieved in Carson Strong and that is evidenced on how they continue to defend Strong and can't come to grips with reality that he wasn't that good and went undrafted for reasons beyond just his knee.

100+ catches out of backfield this year. 

Gainwell led all Eagles RB's with 33 catches last year, combined, Eagles RB's had 74 catches last year.

Kenneth Gainwell will not come remotely close to 100 catches, and the group probably doesn't make it.

Another bacarty hot take based on no actual evidence.

I always liked him. I think the eagles had interest in that draft albeit under a different DC and HC. But hes solid. I think would be the ideal backup behind Reddick and maybe a guy you put on the field at times even without an injury happening ahead of him. 

Could easily see replacing Taron Jackson with him. 

Theres already a bunch of really enticing cuts to go get.

Nah.  I walk alone. It means when someone who keeps tagging someone who they hate, it’s kind of obsessive.  We’ll be pals one day.  You’ll see. 

You’re here to fist who? 

Again says the person who leaves a smiley emoji on every single one of my posts every single day.

Tagged you what today and yesterday after you were involved in a trolling scheme 

Being in the center of the circle jerk seems lonely but hey you're the center of attention.

I still think on most teams he’s the 3rd safety. Hoping he shows us something more. Safety has been/is a disaster not just last year, this year, but next year and onward. Really need to invest there.

I don’t see how they go from a strong offer for Marcus Williams to signing/cutting Tartt and leaving us with what we have now. Something has to be in the works.

The Tartt cut could be because he's a vested vet or because they like Blankenship more than him and want to keep Wallace.  I don't know that they have plan.  I do think they would like to add a player.
