I don’t think we should make any determination on who we draft based on the configuration of older players in the secondary. 

Just for the sake of the argument, let’s say we draft Trotter in round 2. By his second year, we’re going to have two new starting corners. Ringo could be one, and he’s really fast. Brown projects to be a starter at safety, and he’s a missile back there. Blankenship isn’t fast, but he’s not slow either. 

Agree in the sense that we should take BPA all the time because things change...but if Howie is using a top 50 pick on LB, he's starting. 

I don't think it'll come up. OL/WR will be our first picks.

This is a great history of the Eagles-Cowboys rivalry.  My first memory as a kid was sitting on my dad's knee watching the 1980 NFC championship game.  He said to me "our team is the team in green and we hate the team with the star on their helmet."  From that day on. I have always hated the Cowboys.  F' Dallas, F' the Cowboys!!

 

Man the Dolphins suck. Talk about crashing back down to earth

What a defensive play from KC.

The Chiefs' defense is better than their offense.

Miami are posers. They lose to every good team they face.

Great quick thinking there 

Terrible play calling and execution from Miami

I think there's a strong chance that McDaniel gets shitcanned if they don't make the playoffs 

Way too much talent on that team for them to look so bad in big games

Inmates running the asylum had some racist undertones when McNair said it and still does. Poor choice of words. 
 

Generational talents get to request things. Players deserve all the money they can get. He has an asking price to play for certain teams…so be it. Certain guys can get away with it. I don’t think he believes he’s going to get ownership. It’s his way of telling teams to stay away, but if they offer it? Well then.

It's not really a racial statement, it's more being referred to as an insane person, or an inmate, which would Insinuate criminal behavior.

It's a pretty well known phrase and commonly used, and I'm well aware that McNair said it and why and the blow back he got from some, which is why I referenced it in Williams case because the situation is just as ridiculous, it was more tongue in cheek.

Lots of " Generational" talents have turned out to be busts, sure he and his agent have the right to make Any demands they wish and by doing so many have unwanted negative consequences.

All I know is I wouldn't want him in my locker room, he seems like a cancer to me.

Can you think of high level starting corners who couldn't get on the field as rookies like Ringo? I've been trying to think of one. 

Lito, depending how high of a level you want to consider him.

I think DE and CB is in the mix too if they like someone.

NYG fans don’t even want to sit through that dreck.

Growing up in Utah we rarely got eagles games, it was usually Denver, SF,  and ed tjnow LV.

Seattle.

But we'd also get a fair amount of Dallas games but I guess LV market takes precedence over dallas market for west market🤷‍♂️

Yes it is his life and his actions have consequences.

He wouldn't be the first QB to pull the ill only play for certain teams and he won't be the last.

The asking for  ownership of the team he's drafted to is ridiculous 

Let's say a crappy team drafts him then gives him ownership shares, what's to stop every player iny every team especially established superstars asking for the same? Before you know it the inmates are running the asylum.

He just seems like an entitled diva and that's not going to fly in a lot of locker rooms, especially at QB.

I get it but don’t get it - people everywhere like big-time games and are unimpressed by irrelevant ones.

If Ringo was starting right now, he'd be the youngest starting CB in the NFL. He's currently 21.

Joey Porter Jr is starting for the Steelers right now. He went #32 overall...and he's 23, Even other 1st round CBs in recent memory (Sauce, McDuffie, etc) were 22+. Many of them were seniors and had that extra year of college. 

Major comeback coming for the Dolphins!

Two past predictors @NCTANK and @twistr have decided to opt out.  If you too want to opt out, just reply to this post letting me know that is your preference.  I'll move your name into the inactive list in the tracking spreadsheet.

 

Miami just hasn't played that well on the Road this year.   But they can score fast so I don't think it's over for them yet here.

I think Joey had 4 or 5 penalties the other day, so he’s a WIP with opportunity.
