    Yeah really. Go look at a 60 model anything in great shape, and tell Me that. If the vehicle you buy depreciates from 40 thousand to 10 thousand in 2 years.....you have bought the wrong vehicle....that's a You problem....just like green.....

    This is interesting. Long term, I'd much rather have Corral than Rudolph.

    That's his whole shtick he is permanently stuck to the top of the fence and refuses to get off. I gave up trying to have a meaningful discourse with him years ago. Im pretty sure he has at one point or another accused everyone on the board of knowing nothing about football and being stupid. He will claim if you just watch the game and are smart you will realize that coaches really add nothing to the game, game planning is next to worthless and that it all comes down to player execution. Players execute the plays and they win, players don't and they lose. In almost 12 years I don't think I've ever seen him comment anything that removes the fence post from his back side and come down on one side or the other.

    Has talent but apparently a real bad attitude. His release would seem to back that assertion up.

    Should take a look at Zappe.

    They would have to steal him from the practice squad, but he has a better opportunity in New England.

    I'm assuming Corral will end up on some team's 53-man roster. If the Steelers could get him on the practice squad, I'd love to see it, but I doubt that would happen.

    I mocked the hype, too but I just meant as a BU. And I think there is more to the story than this article. They were talking about this on GMF, I had it on in the background while I was working but I got the gist there was a disagreement of sort between him and Hoodie. I could be wrong, wasn’t paying close attention.

    I think it comes down to do they want the devil they know or the devil they don't. M&M have known issues. One can't throw it reliably over 10 yards and has got ultra conservative while the other has a nice deep ball but struggles with pocket awareness and learning to be a pro Style QB instead of a spread offense always in shotgun college star. If the snatch Zappe do they have a system to overcome his limitations?

    Texans GM scouted and liked Green out of college. So it was a solid deal for both sides. Omar knew that cuz he was right there with Cisaro. Omar drove the car for a long time and knows everyone on the block.

    Interesting analogy, but what if that same vehicle had the warranty run out but had irreparable problems? You know because you drove the car. The outside looks good just needs a tuning maybe from an outsider's perspective, but you know the real story the parts just are not reliable to get you to work and back on a consistent basis.

    I think the final destination for Green was getting cut. So yeah they drafted him too early which doesn't match up, but instead of getting $100 taken they were able to keep a $20 in a situation likely to lose all.

    S.T.D. has obviously never traded in a car. The minute you drive it off the lot, it depreciates by around 10%. And the value doesn't go up after that.

    You're talking classic. Just about every car brand new drops in price as you pull off the lot. And severally as the years go on.

    So honestly your comparison is a fail.... unless you're going to try to tell us Green is 60 years old and been garage kept.

    Again 2 years(same amountof time Green actually played here)....if You buy something ...anything for 40 thousand, and two years later can only get 10 thousand out of it....YOU did not chose wisely, and YOU know this.

    Tell me your car. About 90% of cars drop dramatically in price.

    I asked AI if Kendrick Green was a car, what would he be. It said journey man, and he dodged blocks that got Kenny concussions. It determined he was still in Good condition..... his value was 1/3rd.

    I’m not a MR fan either. I thought he would have a better connection with Washington than he did since both played at OSU.
    However, MR with downfield throws to Pickens and CA3 could be a beautiful thing.

    Unless there's a pandemic. The value of my 2011 SUV actually went up in 2020-21.

    That info is like 25 years out of date.

    Funny, because of the Supply shortage I am hearing stories of Used Cars selling for more than New Cars, because there is No Stock available.


    Now if it is an electric car, you are screwed once you drive it off the lot. Nobody is buying used electric cars, because of the cost to replace the battery.

    This is why you lease electric cars. A no-plug hybrid is the way to go if that’s your thing. What you save at the pump almost pays the lease. Especially with today’s gas prices. I just bought a new gas only car, but I looked at options.
