  1. A fastball of 82 in the 1920s. My grandsons hit harder pitches in high schoolspan widget
  2. Fastballs were in the 80 mph range in his era. Plus they didn't let black guys play. Imagine babe getting 90 mph slider. He was not an athlete in any way compared to today. He could hammer a 73 mph hanging curve though. He was great for his era
  3. Babe wouldn't have made single A ball today. He was great for his ERA
  4. Forte had the 4th most catches by a back of all time in 2014. Only CMC (twice) and Eckler have more.
  5. Othani is like someone glitched the matrix and a create a player was born. Like weird science, but not Kelly LeBrock.
  6. I said Faulk would be the standard in the NFL today. CMC has a long way to go to get in that territory.
  7. They paid him 2 million to come back after an achilles tear. I was off by 1
  8. Give him 100 targets and find out. Matt Forte was a similar player to JT. Up right runner, didn't run wide often. JT is faster. Forte caught 100 balls in a season. He won my fantasy league in 13 or 14. I bet he had more targets that year than JT has in 3
  9. His first 2 seasons he looked pretty good. Similar ypc as CMC. Just far fewer opportunities
  10. SS must want him to put a beat down on someone
  11. JT when given the opportunities has been a very good pass catcher. I'm not sure where that narrative is coming from.
  12. BTW Kelce is woefully under paid for the production he has put up
  13. In the end it comes down to QB. You either have one or you don't. A Marshall Faulk type back would set the market for backs today. He lined up out wide pretty regularly
  14. I'm not sure about the mid rounds. Of the 2022 top ten running backs. Only 2 were drafted outside the 2nd round.
  15. Then some other kid will play running back. The odds of making it to the NFL at any position is very low. I don't know how high school ball works now days. When I played, you played where you were told to play
  16. I think making 9 or 10 million a year will still intrigue some players
  17. I haven't heard anything that says he is gonna hold out. Did I miss something?
