    Literally any player chosen fills a need.

    Should make for an interesting Draft Weekend! 

    (But I just realized a week or so ago that I got tickets to see JIm Gaffigan at Playhouse Square, so I'll miss a good chunk of Day 3. Such a pity.)

    Two sides to that:  1)  the suspense, anticipation, like not knowing the prebirth gender of your grandchild.

    2)  worried about what jackass move they'll make because you've lost faith in their abilities as draft evaluators, that they're on thin ice regarding their jobs and like a wounded animal, might do anything from totally crazy to sane.       ☺️

    I hear ya. ?  Hard to believe option 2 is a lot more promising than my 401K today.

    Yes indeed!   Jim Gaffigan should be fun.   Usually day 3 gets away from who is being drafted with all these side stories; and then they catch you up as quick as they can on the last 5 or 6 guys drafted. Of course, Rich Eisen has to remind us he's a huge Michigan fan quite a few times throughout the day. Then he's going to run his 40 yard dash as fast as any sloth in the world can for a good cause at least.

    Nah.   Mostly classic rock.  I play in two bands.  Both have shows in May. (I'm not a fan of the word 'gig'...but it's the go-to term)

    I don't know.  It seems to me the superstars have shows.  The others have gigs.

    I am not putting you down.  Only you know which category your band belongs.

    You're right.  I'd be a 'gigger'  ?   50+ years ago when I played in the accordion studio's 40 pc accordion band, we played shows.  Around 1969ish  we toured Portugal for 18 days sight seeing and playing shows to packed halls.  At one venue they had speakers outside for the people that couldn't get in.  The audience dressed eloquently, every man was in a suite.  We dressed in black tux's and hot pink gowns. Audiences were very quiet and respectful and applauded in appreciation after every song.  But in a beautiful concert hall in Lisbon, at the end of Ave' Maria, you could hear a pin drop...and then the audience erupted in applause...and people were yelling something.  Our teacher/conductor seemed surprised.  Neither he nor the chaperones could interpret what they were yelling.  We found out a couple of days later that the translation was similar to Bravo!  -  was a great fun trip, 2 islands and then Lisboa.

  •  Research shows that 85% of job interviews are about charm, chemistry, connection and perceived social ability as much as they are about actual skills.  

     Sanders has ability and does belong. But it speaks volumes that his tape his better than Darts yet still dropped far below him.  Attitude is everything.  

  • do the jets have a qb ? I dont think so

  • Anyone find the tweet from 2018 by coach prime saying Shadeur would do an eli manning and never play for the Browns.

    Lol.

    This year he learned 31 other teams still weren't interested in Shedeur all the way into round 5.  Looks like it's Cleveland or Canada...

    The Eagles were going to take him with the next pick.  Even teams WITH quarterbacks were hitting the 'Why The Hell Not?' stage.

    Berry's explanation of drafting Sanders was kinda' funny.  'We weren't expecting to draft 2 QB's, but since we believe in BPA...'   Picks 2-5 were not the BPA.  But they all filled needs.  Our last 2 picks were seen as good value (Sampson & Sanders).

    Understood.  But I was replying to the following statement somebody posted:  "Anyone find the tweet from 2018 by coach prime saying Shadeur would do an eli manning and never play for the Browns."

    This wasn't anything close to Shedeur being an Eli Manning value of #1 overall when the Browns didn't even consider him at #2 overall before he did the free-fall to #144 overall in the 5th round.  In fact, Eli Manning was drafted 1st overall by a team (The Chargers) in the 2004 that Eli asked/told not to draft him.  Lucky for Eli, 3 draft slots later - the Giants drafted Philip Rivers and then traded him and draft picks to SD for Eli Manning.  

    I'll say this. I like Shedeur's accuracy; and I think he can develop into a good NFL QB.  That is, if his dad doesn't mess it all up first.   We shall see...
