  1. As quickly as they got that pick in, to me that says they didn't expect him to be there (and they had no plans of trading up for anyone). I didn't, and I wouldn't have expected him to be around much longer. I am not upset with this pick at all. Very likely BPA and a position of need. Winner all around.
  2. Do you have any lottery numbers for tomorrow?

  4. Got JnJ yesterday, no reaction, just a tiny bit of shoulder soreness. I was excessively tired yesterday evening, but I don't know if that was due to the shot or due to working out three days in a row (because I was contingency planning on being down for a day or two after the shot).
  5. Likely stirred up by a conference rival trying to induce chaos on draft night.
  6. Help me understand how ZaDarius Smith, Preston Smith, and Rashan Gary "suck".
  7. That, or they read "scouting reports" or mock drafts from some on-line hacks (such as Walter, perhaps the worst in the business) or that haven't been updated in six months (also Walter, and to a lesser extent The Draft Network) and take them as gospel.
  8. Gutes doesn't like to draft a guy unless he has a decent chance of making the roster; he doesn't like to spend draft picks on camp competition. With a new special teams coordinator, who had success in the past working with Pat McAfee and Rigoberto Sanchez, I think they try a different approach before a different punter. Scott has been among the league leaders in hangtime and lowest % of punts returned; the potential is there, and his past STC's have left a lot to be desired. Plus, they already have a second punter on the roster.
  9. Hell, once he signed with Rosenhaus that statement was pie in the sky optimism - how many people thought that when he signed with Rosenhaus he was as good as gone? The pandemic and resulting drop in the salary cap is probably the only reason he's still a Packer.
  10. One thing that I'm really starting to like about YouTube TV is that you can turn something on well after it starts and skip back to the beginning. Not so with cable. Still wish it broadcast in 5.1 surround sound and not 2.1.
  11. That, and look at the price that teams are willing to pay to move up into the top 3-4 to draft a QB. If you have a QB that is on the wrong side of 36 and a QB you think can be good falls anywhere near you at the end of the 1st round, I cannot blame you at all for moving up and pulling the trigger. Yeah, they lost two 4th round picks and the opportunity cost of drafting an immediate impact player. But look at what teams are giving up to move into the top 3-4 picks in the draft. It's a lot more than two 4th round picks.
  12. They are so choice. If you have the means, I highly recommend trying them. Buck up for prime, cheapskate.
  13. Are the Reds looking to get out from under Moustakas' contract, and if so, would they be enticed by Avisail Garcia's shorter/cheaper contract? Worse player, but can cut bait after the season for $2M. Brewers' 3B woah solvdd.
  14. Imagine Woodruff, Burnes, Peralta and Rogers as or top 4 in the rotation. And had they taken Shane Bieber instead of Braden Webb...
  15. Fun fact: Trevor Rogers was taken four picks after Keston Hiura in the 2017 draft.
  16. How many runs did the Brewers have yesterday through 8? Does the Marlins bullpen walk in as many runs as the Cubs? That was our best offense Three of the five runs scored on hits.
  17. How many runs did the Brewers have yesterday through 8?
  18. Sports Illustrated has the Brewers 4th.
  19. They were in the NFCCG. A healthy Bakh minus a boneheaded DC and they probably win that game. Spend their top two picks on OT and CB and they're as good as any other team in the NFC.
  20. Is a Prediction Pole like a Festivus Pole? Or is it designed to give you distance from your prediction in case it stinks?
  21. Not terribly far though. They have a lot of picks, but mostly low value. And they only have 30 players under contract for 2022 and are already at $219M cap value. They will need a lot of low-cost players next season and the Packers don't like to rely on rookies - they have said the biggest jump a player makes is from year one to year two, and I think they want to get as many rookies in this year because next year the entire bench is probably going to have to be year 1-2 guys.
  22. Please clarify: were you meaning best Brewers pick for 2016 or the best overall talent coming from the 2016 draft??? Could be the latter... Just think if the Brewers would have drafted Shane Bieber in the 3rd round instead of Braden Webb.
