i wish we drafted MJD back in 06
^^ This. Although 06 was a pretty good year for us.

I think Robert Woods (6'1") is a slightly taller version of Percy Harvin (5'11) (Harvin has been very productive in Minnesota before anyone jumps me), there is no way Wayne is as fast as Woods and certainly not Harvin
Percy Harvin now or Percy at Florida, because he lined up a lot at Running Back in college? I don't think Woods does the same does he?
-
He's slated as the starter in Detroit but its only a formality because he was on the team last year....a few blogs said JACOB LACEY may become the starter...with that said, dealing with this dude would be a waste.
If that's true, make sure you stock up on Packers, Bears and Vikings receivers in fantasy.

If I see Broncos jerseys at LOS when we aren't playing the Broncos...I'll call them a "DB". And no, "DB" doesn't stand for "Denver Broncos".
I was gonna say spill beer on them, but no way I'm spilling an $8 beer.
-
I agree, wholeheartedly with this. When Peyton retires, I think it'll be acceptable to wear them again as it will be like a throwback. However, if I see any Manning Bronco's Jerseys at Lucas Oil this year, I will flash them the dirtiest of looks.

I get the suspicion. I learned a while ago not to give anyone the benefit of the doubt when it comes to PEDs, especially in baseball. However, I don't think the biceps idea is evidence of anything.
And you very well may be right. My whole suspicion comes from working out with guys in college who were juicing and they would tear tendons all the time just doing ordinary lifts, as a result. So while I do see red flags, it could all be coincidence as you say.
-
I wouldn't want to give up anything more than a mid-late round pick for him. A 5th would have been ok, but we don't have one. If we do spend a mid round pick, I guess that would officially take us out of the Mike Jenkins sweepstakes. Doesn't say much about the team's confidence in the young receivers we just drafted if we do.
-
So you don't admit that this is 100% conjecture?
Could be, I never said that it wasn't. Innocent until proven guilty. In my opinion, did he use PED's? Probably, but that's just one man's opinion based on the circumstances.

Is the steroids thing real or fake
He's never tested positive, but all the signs are there. One of the side effects of roids is that while your muscles get bigger and stronger, your ligaments and tendons do not, leading to ruptures and tears. And Bob just so happened to have those big ole bicep tendons rupture in consecutive years. Just Sayin'.

My advice personally, you should invest in LongHorn Network. Contact your Cable Provider and ask them for Details. (I sound like a Commercial)
That would probably require me paying extra money, which I am not a fan of.
-
Hook 'Em Horns. I'm a TCU Fan, but I do enjoy watching Texas play when TCU isn't on TV. Mack Brown is a GREAT HC. And Manny Diaz Defense is something to be FEARED lol.
All my cousins live in Austin and some of them attended UT so I've been a fan all my life. They're rarely on TV in Indy though which stinks.
-
I would love to stand by Texas players here but sadly Indy doesn't take to kind to Longhorns
Well I do, big fan.

Please learn to recognize sarcasm - it's very common on the Interwebs. I'm pretty loosely wound, but love to have fun. Thank you for volunteering to be my psych - but really don't need one!
(Yes, I can also do smiley faces)I really didn't want to respond to this, but I digress, this will be my last comment on the matter. My first post WAS sarcasm to which you misunderstood and told me not to make something out of nothing in a rather snarky way. I then proceeded to tell you that my post was made in good fun, to which you further misunderstood and got even more defensive. So, I think you have things backwards my friend. Take care, Happy 4th.

Reading comprehension, please: I said "He's just joking."
Understand?
(Sorry, but I'm not smart enough to make it more simple than that).
My post was a joke, hence the smiley face. Get it now? Have fun living life tightly wound.
-
And the Browns too. Both were in the context of the rookie thing. He's just joking.
Nothing more than that. Please don't read more into it than that.
It was a joke.

I like that he's already calling out the Pats for cheating. He should fit well here

How Curtis became a painter

Did he give him the whole "With great power comes great responsibility" spiel?

Might be, I know Bob Sanders is close to that in height anyway, I think he will struggle alot if he is put at Corner
True, but Bob was over 30 pounds heavier and built like a tank and still got hurt. Mathieu made a ton of plays, but he doesn't have the elite measurables and lock down cover skills to warrant a high pick, I believe. But hey, it only takes one team to reach on a guy.
-
He will be a Safety I bet
You think so? At 5'9" 175, that would be the smallest safety in the league, I bet.
-
I just can't see Mathieu being taken in the first half of the first round. Teams don't usually gamble on corners that size early. I think his value is as a nickel back only.

Do you know how hard it was for me to say that Notre Dame had some credibility as a Purdue fan? This is in reference to your Andrew Luck comment. ND has a good Defense. I said it.
Again...good players can come from bad teams. Mario Williams vs an O-line and sack QB's is different from Amerson intercepting a pass 20 feet short of the intended receiver. I just watched a highlight video, and the toughest competition might have been Clemson. Two highlights of him intercepting Liberty...yee haw.
Again...I know...he's good. I get it. I just think his competition makes him look really good throwing floaters away from the target. To his credit, he's like 6'3" and can play jump ball vs receivers...my biggest question is : is he a corner or a safety? I think teams might have him play safety in the NFL.
That's fair enough, I haven't watched the kid yet, so I wouldn't know. I just think it might be unfair to pigeonhole someone based on the conference they play in. The Big Ten doesn't really have dynamic offenses, the SEC doesn't have stellar QB play top to bottom. My whole argument is that if you can play, you can play.
That being said, I know absolutely nothing about the Amerson kid in question, only that he has the measurables and some hype.

The next time NC State or anyone else from ACC makes it to a premier college bowl game after taking on teams like Oregon, USC, Notre Dame, Cal or any other team with some credibility, let me know. I wouldn't go comparing PAC-12 teams that play tough SEC competition to bottom feeders of the ACC.
Did you just call Notre Dame a team with credibility? Lol, didn't they just get beat in their crappy bowl game by an ACC team? I don't care if a dude played at Slippery Rock as long as he dominated the guy across from him every time. Good players come from bad programs all the time. Mario Williams was an NC State guy too.

Jarvis Jones or David Amerson

I can argue for either. A good DB makes the secondary better, but a great pass rusher makes the secondary better as well. Usually, highly touted pass rushers are seen as more of a sure thing and their skills will translate quicker to the NFL level. Also there are generally more quality corners to be found in the draft than elite pass rushers. If we're on the clock and both are available it'll be a tough call, but that's why teams have draft boards.
