I think I’d put Brents between Porter Jr and Banks personally. Top 2 are interchangeable depending on what you’re looking for. Porter Jr 3rd. Brents 4 (I have him a lot higher than most). Banks 5. Forbes 6 (would be in top 2 convo with more weight).

I also like Jaylon Jones later day 2.

What about Turner from Michigan?  I think he is in the mix as well.

Michigan CBs worry me (Woodson being the exception).

Probably not a valid/fair concern.

He’s fast but has poor arm length. Undersized in general.

Well, our last good midseason trade was for a RB.  Every single one since has literally been just lighting a draft pick on fire and watching it go up in smoke.

Sure would be nice to have that 4th round pick this year.

Yeah Howie needs to have the trade keys taken away once a season starts

Stevenson is the CB I think goes earlier than expected , top 40 or so , big , physical , man corner 

Terrell Smith a later rd CB I like

Nah, but I might be looking at it through anti black and yellow tinted glasses though.  I'm not denying Polamalu was a talent.  He just wasn't what so many pumped him up to be.   As I showed... if you look at his career statistics... he's a distant third in the trio of Dawkins, Reed and Polamalu... and if you add in Leroy Butler, he's even behind him.  No way should he have been a first ballot HoFer.  Should he have gotten in?  Sure.  But, he wasn't at the tier of being a first ballot guy.  For me, that's the type of honor that's reserved for the truly best of the best.  Waiting a year or two would have been just fine for Polamalu, but he's got the endorsements, even now, for Head and Shoulders, so he's in the public eye all the time.  That doesn't make him a better play, just more recognizable.  But, for me, hair doesn't mean much on the football field, so I disregard that element and look at the player.  The player was oft-injured, oft out of position trying to make the splash play, but still worthy of recognition as a great player.  The issue I take with him (or more exactly his accolades) are that they are higher than his actual performance on the field.  

I've always thought that if Polumalo wasn't so recognisable on the field, that his rep would be smaller, and more so if he didn't play for the Steelers. If he played for the Browns or Bengals, he'd get in on later ballots only.

On the Chris Simms comments; to be fair, he does hit on the group think on mock drafts indirectly.  It's presumed that Anderson will go high because x,y and z, but it's more to the point if teams want to take him then and if they see someone else as a better fit.  Each year, the Mock Drafts fail by pick 5 at the latest.

Some pass rushers I really like who will go mid to late rounds 

Mike Morris , big big fan  , he tested poorly but he can play at a high level 

Tuli , I think he is a first rd talent who won’t go to rd 3

Diaby , Mcquier  and Fehoko 3 guys I think out play their draft slot by a bunch .

Kiper  had the Giants  drafting DJ Turner in rd 1

Stats aren't the way to compare players. Impact on the game and wins are (stats to some degree). I live in Steeler country and had to deal with live Steeler trolls my whole life so I'm a hater too. But it doesn't stop me from admitting when I see a great player and he was one of those.

I live up in Vermont so I always get the Eagles vs Giants 2 games and then like 4 or 5 primetime games plus 2-4 other random games.  Just stream or sports bar the other 6-7 games so no need for the ticket.  I realize this doesn't mean anything for anyone else in here 🙂

 

 

Those with YoutubeTV… can you stream on multiple devices at tue same time it is that an extra charge/tier subscription?

You can stream on up to 3 devices at the same time 

anyone know if i can watch hulu out of my market (philly) and still see the local philly sports ?

$50-$80 a month to watch the NFL, that's a hard no for me. I hardly watch any games besides the Eagles, and even being in Austin I get them on the local stations for both games against dallas plus they usually have 2 national games, and then are on the local channel another 4+ times when they are not playing the same time as dallas. So essentially there's about 8-9 games a year I would actually need this for. Will just be sticking to NFLBite for those since it gets better every year and I rarely have any issues with it.

Not paying for that. Absurd pricing.

I have YouTube TV and they're also jacking up their monthly fees from $65/month to $72/month

You pay that much AND you still have to watch commercials.

Plus this doesn't include TNF, MNF, or SNF since those are all nationally televised or available from a different streaming platform.

They had a golden opportunity to make an affordable experience and then they do that lol. I would say I hope no one buys it but just like madden every year, no matter how crappy and overpriced it is people shell out

At least you get other pieces of content with YouTube TV and other perks. 

NFL Sunday Ticket is getting pricey to the point that it's cheaper just to go to a bar if there's an an out of home game you have to watch.

It blows my mind that neither directv nor YouTube has offered single team packages. I guess it shouldn't, single team packages would cost less so they're hoping people just buy the whole thing. F these greedy ass companies, I'll continue to watch game for free
