glad twitter warned us of that graphic content.

So for someone who doesn't watch college ball... who do you all want as #10 and #30?

I think that shoe is a Burrow, Herbert, and a potential Jackson contract getting signed this off season. Burrow will probably be pushing $55mm APY and Herbert is going to be right around Hurts in the $50-$53mm APY. The FO has generally signed players a year early to get them locked in at a better rate. The thing with QBs is their market gets reset just about every year, so the earlier you can get them extended the better in the long run.

I saw some post earlier that said there would be no additional cap hit this year with the Hurts signing. If that's true, it shouldn't have any impact on making another draft day splash signing.

Cincinnati could get ugly with Burrow. Mike Brown might be too cheap to shell out that big of a contract.

More rumblings the Texans will pass on QB at 2.

It's been obvious they would at least consider someone other a QB there. The constant mock drafting of the top 3 made no sense; other shoes were always going to fall

Most Texans fans I hear call into NFL Radio (yes, there are some) have zero interest in taking QB at #2.  They have many other needs, and none of these QBs are capable of succeeding without a good roster around them.

I really don't get the complaints about Hurts' getting overpaid or not taking a discount. Kyler Murray signed a 5 year extension last offseason: $230.5 million with $160 million guaranteed. The salary cap from 2022 to 2023 went up by ~8%, from $208.2 million to $224.8 million. So if Hurts got the same deal adjusted for inflation, it would have been $248.9 million and $172.8 million in guarantees. 

~$7mm more in guarantees and total value for Hurts vs. Murray is a steal, especially since the Cardinals could have used the 5th year option on Murray. Once you account for that, you can argue Hurts took less. 

Had to be done

but if you make that argument why not just have Hurts play on the last yr of his rookie deal?

I agree with both of them that he's quite a bit better as a DE.  He doesn't appear to make any impact at all inside.

That roster is such a dumpster fire, a QB won't do squat to make improve things. Better to keep Mills and tank, especially if Nick Caserio goes back to NE as rumoured; the new GM can work out what they want to do

Idaho has that issue at the moment. Most people in the Boise area travel to this crappy little town called Ontario in Oregon. Population of only 11,000 people, and 31,000 in entire county, yet the county Ontario is in is the second highest earning county in weed revenue in all of Oregon with over $100 million in revenue last year. That’s all because they’re an hour drive from the Boise area. It’s where I go, usually takes me less than 2 hours round trip since I’m a bit closer. 
 

Idaho is literally surrounded by all legal states, all idaho citizens are going to these other states & it bothers me so much. I wish people would lose the stigma behind it, realize marijuana is really not that bad, and recognize how much money we are essentially handing other states because we’re so behind in the times

I still remember back when we were living in CO and it first was legalized that on the Kansas-CO boarder on I-70 there was always a TON of troopers pulling over cars with Kansas plates coming back into the state.  We never got pulled over because we had CO plates on our cop car Ford Explorer 

Reuben Frank is choking on Hurts D today.  Slow it down there turkey neck.

He’s part quarterback legend, part wise old philosopher, part unquestioned locker room leader, part franchise savior.

Houston's in a real tough spot if they're not into taking a QB at 2.  The hype on Anderson seems to be cooling, and if they're not taking him or a QB there I'm not sure who would be worth the pick. 

They might get fleeced in a trade down.  Especially if teams know they don't want a QB and Arizona is sitting there at 3 perfectly willing to trade back.

Lol that’s so funny because it was the same thing when Oregon first legalized it also. I still get a tiny bit nervous every time I cross the border back into idaho 😂

Marijuana is fully legalized here, and you'd think there's a huge outbreak in the skunk population.  That stuff stinks, in more ways than one.

Not all of them. But he most important one. Is he good enough to win a super bowl with? Yes, I think he proved that even though we didnt win.

He played well enough to win a Super Bowl and well enough to win 14 of 15 games.   He obviously is not perfect in every aspect but that's a very strong positive. The biggest remaining question is can he repeat that performance.

3 rounder because I'm poor and can't afford to upgrade to 7 round mock drafts
