Daboll looks like he forgot his sunscreen, Reid and Belichick look like they'd rather be on a boat somewhere, and thank goodness they got the photo in before McCarthy fell over asleep.

Nick and Frank are definitely off doing their own thing; can't imagine where Vrabel is.

I wonder the politics about where they sit. We know Reid is the NFL coach Belichick respects a lot, Payton in the middle of everyone puffing his chest, but Shane opted not to sit next to Gannon. And McCarthy looks like the kid picked last at kickball

Had to be 4for4 making those threats and what not. Whomever it was is a sad and pathetic person.

I just don't see us going CB in round 1.  Where would Witherspoon play?  

Slot mostly.  And he would be the first option if Slay or Bradberry get injured.

Move Maddox to FS, play Witherspoon/Gonzalez in the slot, problem solved defense upgraded.

My money is on DUM.  He was always very stalkerish and obsessive so that is right in his playbook.  He also has a deleted account per no longer showing on my ignore list whereas 4for4's account still exists.  Who VA Beach is referring to has a deleted account now soooo, yeah.

Do you want Gibbs mainly as a slot receiver?

No.  Sharing the lead RB with Gainwell.  As has been pointed out numerous times by @TEW Hurts would be even more dangerous if Gibbs is the RRPO option at RB.  I can also see some sets where both Gainwell and Gibbs are RBs with one or the other going into motion.

If we're going to draft an RB, it needs to be one who can break tackles and convert 3rd and 2. We have Scott/Gainwell as passing backs. We don't need another scatback.

There was only one person that I knew of that knew my personal channel, I had thought he was trustworthy but perhaps, it seems, not. In his demand to delete his account and content, he even threw out a threat to go to Invision if we didn't, as if they care one way or the other about some random person on some random message board that they have nothing to do with lol. 

After posting here yesterday about this, he even emailed me complaining about 'blaming him', (saying that 'his people' were informing him of what's being said). Of course, I didn't name him and I even said that I didn't know who it was and that it may not be him at all, only that there was just ONE person (that I was aware of) that had the information. So either he gave the information out, which he said he wouldn't, or he did it himself. Either way, it doesn't matter. It's not like it was a huge "security secret" and now he's 'screwed me over'. I just wanted to avoid exactly what's going on now, which is whenever I post a video, the trolls want to TRY to harass me.

I guess they have nobody else that they can childishly lash out against (until they get banned from their new board, which I hear isn't very far fetched already lol), so why not lash out at me? I'm an easy target, right? Of course, they only help my channel by doing so lol. 

But to explain a little about my personal channel:
 

  Hide contents

Back during the beginning stages of the pandemic when nobody could leave their homes (and with my mother's health situation being what it is, that's still the case for me to a large extent), I began making what's called 'reaction videos'. That's where you watch something that you've never seen before (a movie or TV show) and record yourself watching it. Later, add the show or movie to the video so that others can see what you're seeing and reacting to, then edit it down to a shortened version for YouTube (or the entire video for Patreon) and upload it for others to watch. I'm may not be the best at it, with the most subscribers/views, and I can probably be a bit boring for some but I do ok and earn enough to help with the personal bills/expenses.  

There's people doing it on YouTube and Patreon making AN ISHTON of money at it, and by 'AN ISHTON', I'm talking five and six figures per year. Unfortunately, I'm not one of them lol, but I make enough to supplement my income and help with personal bills/food/gas/whatever. Which, since I am a fulltime, around the clock caregiver, is very helpful (and that's why I think doing something with the board's YouTube channel would really help the board if we can get it monetized). 

I earn revenue from various streams, including my channel. So it's basically like a 'job' and helps supplement my income so that personal bills and such are taken care of.  So when these idiots try to attack me there, they're also indirectly attacking my mother and my ability to pay the bills that help her. 

Anyone that wants to see my channel can PM me and I'll provide a link. Like I said, it's not a 'huge secret' kind of thing. But having been involved with message boards for more than 20 years, you learn to try your best to keep it separated from real life, for just this very reason. 

Can we do nfl games or the draft?

What I meant was that I just don't see how a team would be willing to offer a trade given the risk.  An offer sheet is an agreement by a player to accept a contract offer, if you have a deal worked out you have a signed offer sheet.  If there's a signed offer sheet, the team potentially loses 2 first round picks. They could trade for him after he signs the non-exclusive tag offer but Lamar is under no obligation, at that point, to negotiate a deal.  I think the difference is the value of the position to the team, the cost of the tag and the volatility of dealing directly with Lamar in negotiations. So I think the idea that a team would trade for him without just having him sign an offer, doesn't make sense.  

DE is a different position.  Taking on a player for one year at DE in their prime for what they gave up is relatively low risk.  Ngakoue and Clowney had announced they were not playing under the tag.  The teams did not have much leverage and were not opposed to moving on from them.  Ngakoue signed a one year deal for less than the tag to facilitate the deal.  Clowney had nixed a deal to go to Miami for Tunsil. He signed the tag to get out of Texas.  It wasn't about getting necessarily a long-term deal in the way it appears to be for Lamar. The players played a large role in the outcome and part of it was a willingness to sign something to move on from the team.   Clark is the only one of those 3 that signed a new deal with the Chiefs.  The way the trade was worked out it makes me think there essentially was a signed offer sheet. These were low risk moves for the teams making the trades and low risk for the team moving on from the players.  

I don't think QB is a similar position given the long-term cost of a deal. If there was a team that thought they were a QB away maybe that type of trade would happen but I don't see it.  The only team that is potentially a contender with Lamar is the Ravens.  Lamar is the face of the franchise and will be the face of whatever team he gets traded to from the start.  A team isn't going to want him for a one year rental the way they might consider taking a DE.  I also don't sense that Lamar wants anything other than a lot of money in a new deal.  

They can come to a verbal agreement without signing an offer sheet. It would be silly (stupid) to have everything lined up and then Lamar last minute to just say nvm after the trade processed. There's no benefit for him to do that at all, only detriment. 

I'm not saying it's likely or will happen. The point is it wouldn't make sense for multiple teams to wait until after the draft and then go after him when they can go after him now and trade two future firsts (or whatever they want).

Yup.  I think some people don't care at all and some people care much more than they should.  For group pictures I just pick a spot at random and if the photographer asks me to move, I do.  When it comes to having my picture taken, I prefer to blend in rather than be front and center.

My guess is they asked Reid and Belichick to sit front and center, then grouped some longer-tenure guys around them (Harbaugh, Carroll, Rivera, Payton).  One would think they'd have offered to put McCarthy somewhere in that group but he probably either said No or nothing, because he looks like he doesn't want to be there.

Troll job or not, you can't eject a guy for that. There is certainly a lot of competition among the four major sports but MLB umpires are probably the worst officials in sports. They constantly make things personal and officiate the game from that mindset.

What in the actual hell is that guy's problem? That umpire should be suspended for that kind of BS

Looking at it again, most of the old guys are on the bench in the center, and the former QBs are in the back (tall people standing)

But the bench just barely works for 29 people. What happens if all 32 showed up? Back row is stretched way longer than bench is? That would look off, weird that it worked out this perfectly with the absentees

Agreed. They need to upgrade the 3rd or at least 4th DT spot. It's something I don't think people are talking about enough and it's also why those complaining about bringing back Cox are wrong in my opinion. This defense has, is, and will be in the foreseeable future about the DL. Adding another DT and to a lesser extent, DE is important and something I think we will see early in the draft.

Davis, Cox, Williams and Tuipulotu are the top 4 on the depth chart. Not sure a fifth DT is a huge need. Plus, not sure anyone outside of Carter is going to win a spot in the top 4 on the depth chart, and he has a lot of question marks. 

Tuipulotu was even with Williams on the depth chart last year, so not sure why him getting a lot of snaps this season is a shocking concept. 

🤣

We can't show games, probably the draft too. If you've ever watched any of Shango's game day videos, he used to allow the TV to be seen in the video which allowed the game to be viewed. At one point a few years ago, the NFL (I'm guessing it was them), complained to YouTube and he temporarily lost his ability to live stream because of it. So now, when he does a game day video, you can't see the game. I think it's the same with the Draft. You can hear the audio (if I'm remembering right), but you can't see it. Just Shango.

If I had the time and live streaming ability, I'd jump all over it. But I just can't commit to the time that it takes. Last season, I think the Super Bowl might be the only game that I was able to watch 100% of it. Night games, I can't watch at all and 1:00/4:00 PM games, I'm in and out of the room so much that I might see 30% to 60% of the game (live).

I count 29 heads present, and I can name 25 of them, as well as the 3 missing:

Frank Reich - Panthers

Nick Sirianni - Eagles 

Maybe Mike Vrabel - Titans. Guy bottom row second from left vaguely looks like him, but Mike is an enormous human being. I doubt that’s him.

 

Ones I didn’t get were top row way left, top row between Shane and Saleh, Bottom row between Carroll and Mike Mcdaniel, and then the Vrabel imposter

One is Browns who I have no idea the name of, one is Matt Eberflus for Bears who I don’t know what he looks like, one is Brandon Staley Chargers who I don’t know what he looks like (young guy, maybe top far left?) and one is Allen for Saints who I don’t know what he looks like

 

did pretty good otherwise

 

 

Wonder why Sirianni no showed that.

Vrabel imposter first row second to the left is Dennis Allen.

Far left top row is Staley, he has a very punchable face. 

Stefanski (Browns) is between McDaniel and Carrol. He has this weird setup where his goatee is gray but mustache is dark. 

Eberflus is between Saleh and Steichen. 

Bo Wulf is in there for some reason.
