    Well, Tour, I'm glad you finally love you some Kiper. lol

    Mayfield does take care of the ball better than Darnold, fewer bad throws than Allen...

    I just don't know if Mayfield can let go of the controversy and drama.

    That doesn't bother me. I think he'll be fine in that aspect, just fiery on the field. I wish for a little more height. If he was 6'3 I might like him more than Darnold. 

    In the end, what is 2 inches?

    Boo Fagley?

    Man, I dunno... for me that'd mean Nixon again...

    Wait!

    I'll take Nixon.

    Technically it would be LBJ, but he was a huge downgrade from Kennedy....

    Nah... Mel still sucks... he just sucks a lil less... 😉

    Agree on Mayfield off-field. Not the type to sit and learn in silence for long... especially if we start slow, which is likely.

    Here's the bottom line on the slurs...

    They aren't a positive, but if they were a one-off at 15, they won't be a significant factor. I don't think a lot of teams were on the fence when it came to Allen.

    What interested teams are now scrambling to figure out is whether his comments were a one-off.

    And it appears they weren't... now over three-year period.

    Worse... he just said on TV of the tweets, "I did not think it would hurt me six years later."

    Did a bit better later, i.e., "I've grown, etc.", but this is gonna hurt.

    One way or another, at least its only another 30-60 minutes until this borderline-homoerotic Josh Allen-lovefest of Cal's is finally locked. Countin' down the minutes...

    Before you do, all I can say is that even though I am 'whatever' about the Browns' first 2 picks...... I'm just glad we aren't the Bills.

    Same here. I said it in the Tavern. I feel pitty for the Bills fans willing to get Rosen. Then trade up for Allen...

    Well, it is only symbiotic that  Josh Allen....from Wyoming should go to the team named after Buffalo Bill Cody, seeing that the town named after him is in Wyoming.   (and where my brother lived for quite a stretch....was even married there)
