Too bad they're owned by Anheuser-Busch (the same ******* who made my life hell in 2016 by pulling the rug out from under me)
-
-
Had him in my early drafts, but once they signed McKinney I took him out. He will have matchup issues with TE's, but is a good, tough football player who is good in run support. Another solid pick.
-
I'm going to pre-apologize for comments I make later this evening. These beers are going down way, way too easily...
-
Off the schnied! -
That's exactly what happens. All teams are informed immediately when the pick is turned into the league, not when it is announced on TV four minutes later.
-
So, sitting pat at your slot is being passive? Trading up didn't exactly work for Mike Sherman.
-
How do you know? Just because they didn't trade up and give up extra picks?
-
He went one pick before theirs, so I don't know that you can make that claim.
-
Until the Eagles sneak up one spot ahead of you to grab DeJean. That may very well be why the Packers moved down - DeJean was now off the board.
-
Some reports out that the Packers are trying to move up in the 2nd. Also Jaguars and Eagles.
-
Gutey said that he thinks that Morgan can play four positions - assuming that OC is the fifth - and likely was the only OL available who he thought could play four positions. I assume that means that they didn't think that Barton could play OT and/or that Morgan was a lot better at OT. The more I think about it, the less I am surprised. Solid pick. Have OT covered with Walker/Tom/Morgan with the odd man out competing with Rhyan for RG and Myers/Tom have OC covered. Don't need to dip back into OL until day 3 to grab another depth piece or two, so can focus on S, LB, CB, RB on day 2. Can make a move up to get DeJean and then see who among Cooper/Wilson/Colson is still there at 58. GB's 4th can probably get them up to around #36.
-
Nah, Gutey just wanted to get to bed. Detroit is in the Eastern time zone.
-
Tip of the cap to whoever named Jordan Morgan, I know at least one person did
-
Gotta admit downtown Detroit looks a heckuva lot nicer since the last (and only) time I was there in the early 2000s.
-
If you see the pick on social media or wherever before it's announced on TV, please don't post a spoiler
-
So trading back will create players you like if there currently aren't any you like? Hogwash.
-
Mitchell was on my first draft but he got so much helium at the Senior Bowl and then at the Combine, I thought he'd be long gone by now. I think I'd be happy to whiff on my 1st round picks to get him.
-
(See: 2021 Las Vegas Bowl)
-
Leo Chenal is sweating bullets that he doesn't end up in the AFC.
-
I think Guyton's still available at #41 if not #58. He didn't play very well (PFF grade of 63.7) and the rumor is that there are concerns that he and two other players the Packers brought in (Maason Smith and Burton the WR from Alabama) can mentally make the jump to the NFL, and that's why the Packers brought them in for a visit - to evaluate their intelligence.
-
The Packers haven't drafted an OT in the 1st round since 2011. They haven't drafted an interior OL in the 1st since Aaron Taylor in 1994 (while Ross Verba moved to guard eventually, he played LT his first couple of years and was drafted as a OT). I don't foresee them taking an interior OL in the 1st. If Barton is the pick - and I doubt it would be - it's because they think that with better coaching he can play OT.
-
I like how much you use the term "probably" (and "guess"). The reality is that a 7-footer who averaged 11 points, 7 rebounds, and made 44% of his 3's and 74% of his FT's would get a lot of money in the portal. Similar profiles are ranked among the top 20 players available.
-
It absolutely is, in the case where one player isn't much "better"/more valuable/more minutes/etc. than the other, according to sources very close to the program. If your teammate, and someone who got the same amount of minutes as you, suddenly got 5x what you were getting, how would you feel and what would you do? That's because Crowl has integrity, as does Gard and UW. He doesn't have one foot out the door because the system they have in place has been relatively fair and it is what he has been told it would be. When the system becomes different from what he has been told would be the case, that creates cognitive dissonance and will change things. There is a story about Nigel Hayes and a time when he was with a bunch of other CBB players from other schools. Someone asked the group to raise their hand if what they were told during recruitment was what they experienced in reality. Hayes was the only person who raised his hand. That's how UW chooses to operate. Isaac Lindsey had his scholarship revoked at UNLV because they brought in what Otzelberger thought was better players. When UW had one too many BB scholarships promised, they moved Lindsey to a NIL deal equal to his scholarship. That's how UW chooses to operate. It is a free market. Crowl is free to do what he chooses, as is UW. So stop criticizing UW because they choose to operate with integrity.

They do, They communicate weekly about who are the top priorities. The issue goes all the way to the top at UW. Above Gard, above McIntosh. They insist on playing by the rules and kids getting on campus before giving out any $. Other schools are writing a check when the kid signs.
