FWIW, I think Cowher had a very good system for a high variance player in Ben (High percentage of amazing jaw-dropping plays. High percentage of...
I think they were mostly a signal that the practice facilities suck. Probably because they are old and "worse" than facilities at a lot of high...
I think it can be...but Goodell can appoint someone else. At least that's how I think suspension type things are done (even though Goodell could...
I think you and I are defining tanking differently. I'd call what you're talking about something more like prioritizing development after you've...
Turns out...he is indeed bad enough. We just had a defense and offensive system that could hide him.
This might change now. Since MM is an offensive minded coach who at least has a history of working with (and maybe even improving the play of)...
It's not that there is no incentive. It's that the incentive is much less than in the NBA and the NHL (IMO) where those top couple picks are even...
While trades are becoming more common in the NFL, betting against a trade is still the most likely option. If they did want to trade one of our...

My guess is that there's a much higher proportion of POSs in the ranks of pro athletes.
I wouldn't be against a lottery for teams that don't make the playoffs to provide a disincentive to tank. But tanking doesn't work as well in the...
Or Harrison "wanting to have his son baptized" (sorry if someone brought this up already, didn't read the whole thread)
Did you see that Lev Bell was ordered to pay $25MM in damages for sexual assault? Against his cousin. Who was a minor at the time. Sounds like his...
I wouldn't necessarily believe this precombine. But I'd imagine that he would be measured at the combine (although I guess he could opt out...but...
Thanks Thor! I agree with all you're saying here. And I wasn't aware of how the PPE accounting differs for extensions vs. not. I'd be in favor...
This may be the case. But I think the "add ins" to get to the top 51 are at the NFL minimum. I think draft picks (especially early ones) make...
