I don’t know how we wouldn’t be at the top of the list for this guy. With 4 guys on the 53, We have the surest path to making a roster of almost any team and we’re actually good.

 

edit: just read that he got wasted, drove into oncoming traffic and killed a guy. Nevermind, pass

@mattwill I'll take 13-4

Saw this and it made me think of RR:

He'd have been a helluva of freakbeast TE if he had though.  

8-9 @mattwill

Reverse jinx similar to picking against them last year

Take a step back due to horrible schedule

I think he was the one who was hit by the drunk driver, who swerved into his lane.

I think he's a top 5 TE from the Sixers.  I would probably rank Sixers Freakbeasts TE prospects as follows:

 

1. Wilt

2. Darryl Dawkins

3. Moses Malone

4. Charles Barkley

5. Joel Embiid.  

* Honorable Mentions: Samuel Dalembert and Manute Bol.

What about Rick Mahorn for a little extra curricular stuff on the field?  I think I'd take him over Dalembert and Bol.  

Chocolate Thunder is a guy who is under appreciated for his sheer athleticism.  Frankly, I think he might even edge out Wilt for the top spot.

You've got it backwards.

If he were the driver, I'm sure he'd be in the court system right now and certainly wouldn't be working on his career, but working on his defense.  From the sound of it, the driver in question has no defense for their actions.

I just realized something looking at the Patriots roster.  The Matt Corral transaction timeline is wacky:
2022:
Carolina gives New England #137 and 2023 #76 for #94 to draft Corral
2023:
New England claims Corral off Carolina's waviers

End Result:
Carolina gains nothing, loses picks
New England moves up from 94 to 76 in the following draft, gets 2022 #137 (Bailey Zappe) and Matt Corral

I think even Shawn Bradley had a more prototypical TE physique than Manute Bol     lol

Surprised not as much chatter about Brandon Smith.  He was a top 15 recruit, the #1 inside linebacker, and a super freak beast of an athlete

However, Smith reminded the NFL community of his elite athletic profile across the NFL Combine and Penn State Pro Day. Posting a Relative Athletic Score of 9.97, Smith set exceptional numbers for the 40-yard dash (4.52 seconds), vertical (37.5″), broad (10’8″), three-cone (6.94 seconds), and shuttle (4.08). While he won’t command first-round attention like teammates Arnold Ebiketie and Jahan Dotson, there’s a solid chance Smith is off the board on Day 2 of the 2022 NFL Draft.

9.97 RAS!   😲

No worries... his fan club will be coming along soon enough.  Smith would be a viable option for PR as well as a trick play QB/FB.

It’s hard to get excited about a linebacker prospect who doesn’t have any instincts. The athleticism doesn’t really play.

Shawn Bradley never impressed me as an athlete.  He could not move.  He was big and the ball would come to him but Bol was an active defender that blocked shots.

Did you say Davion Taylor?

9.97 RAS score.  That's what really matters.
