    Man... Watson just can't stay healthy. He starts looking like a player and he gets hurt.
  2. CheezWizHed
    Sing it with me... The Love Shove.... soon we'll be making another 1st down...
  3. CheezWizHed
    Now a FG puts us up 8... TD wins the game.
  4. CheezWizHed
    Nixon!!!! He really isn't that good of a CB... 😂
  5. CheezWizHed
    When we've had a good run/pass balance, our OL has done well in pass block. When KC is pinning their ears back on obvious passing downs... not so much.
  6. CheezWizHed
    Yes. He was horrible for 5-6 games to start the year, but has gotten stronger as the season has wore on.
  7. CheezWizHed
    Or FA. Will be odd to have cap space.
  8. CheezWizHed
    Watson is having a night! nice.
  9. CheezWizHed
    The Chiefs didn't expted it either.... a lot of complaining about the no-flag

    I actually said elusive which is more about agility than it is speed. But a 4.65 forty yd dash isn't exactly a speedster either. Dayne played out his rookie deal with NYG and then moved on. Each year he got fewer and fewer carries. As an 11th overall pick, he was widely seen as a bust. I doubt a 4th round pick would've lasted that long or gotten that many carries. Anyone drafted that high is going to get more opportunities to just to try to justify the pick.

    A little stunned even. Time for the team to break top 25, isn't it?

    Matt Arnold's last remaining sock is dangling on a hang nail. It wouldn't take much in way of a trade to knock it off. Yelich had a nice season last year, but his contract doesn't quite align with that production.
  13. CheezWizHed
    A player a history of back issues should start learning 1B where you bend over a lot? No, I don't think so. Let him DH mostly and rest his back. Play LF on occasion. Go find a real 1B.
  14. CheezWizHed
    I'm not sure what you are trying to contend? Dayne would've been a HOF back if he was buddies with his coach? I admitted that at-best, he was NFL average. You are showing nothing that says he was more than that. Even before Dayne hit the NFL, there were rumblings about how well his style would work. If the stars would've aligned and the Steelers got him to play Bettis-ball, and he had a coach he liked... he probably was still just and average NFL RB with a bit longer and happier career. He had good feet to hit a hole, but he was running behind huge lines in the NCAA where boys were being run over by men (both Dayne on our OL). The playing field leveled in the NFL and he didn't have the size advantage. Thus he became average.

    The defense improved and there were some obvious mismatches in personnel for the system, so I think it was clearly a transitional year. I guess I wasn't so impressed by our CBs that I saw. Hallman did get a lot of picks and is promising. Wohler was certainly an impact player at safety. Maybe the biggest impact player on D. At OLB, Goetz and Boller had some impact, but much less than we are used to getting. Really no one at DL or MLB stood out much as an impact player. So given that they were "ok" last year (yes, poor opponents too), I think we should see them bouncing back nicely in the next 2-3 years. I don't have much of an opinion on 3-3-5 except to say that football certainly is more about stopping the pass than the run. That this certainly seemed to do well in the score prevention category.
  16. CheezWizHed
    I think Yeli is better suited at DH. He hasn't played 1B, so suddenly learning it with a gimpy back probably doesn't make much sense. Just let him rest on D (or a few games in LF) and simply swing away. His value is in his bat and that only exists when his back isn't acting up.
  17. CheezWizHed
    Which then killed any elusiveness he had, which (for the NFL) was already marginal. Dayne did have good feet and cut well, but he has to be the poster-child for the difference between the NFL and NCAA football. He was the best RB in NCAA history (at that time) and blew up college defenders. But his best in the NFL was average. He clearly struggled to bully-ball his way through tackles. And he wasn't fast enough to beat people outside. Those first two seasons you mentioned where he got 1400 yards, he had less than a 3.6 yd/carry. The reason he got those yards was because NYG invested a 1st round pick (11th overall) in him and kept feeding him the rock to try to justify it.
  18. CheezWizHed
    Without Woody, there isn't a reason why the Brewers couldn't afford Hoskins or Belt. Even easier if they trade away Burnes and/or Adames. You made it sound like these guys were getting 5 year, $30M/year contracts...
  19. CheezWizHed
    I think we'd sell low on Wiemer right now. Mitchell has some upside to tantalize mixed with MLB success, but my gut says he is at his peak right now. Hopefully injuries don't derail his career, but it is possible.
  20. CheezWizHed
    I would hope Chourio starts a little lower in the lineup to take pressure off of him. He is essentially jumping AAA. If he is crushing the ball then move him up.
  21. CheezWizHed
    But yes, this is good news about Chourio. I was OK when we thought it was shorter and higher $$, so this just seems very low risk with high upside. Bravo!
  22. CheezWizHed
    Only if you rest with those players. Because we trade for them doesn't mean we need to stay that way. The brewers are also pretty well known for identifying people that are flexible in the positions they play to help mitigate that.
  23. CheezWizHed
    100% of Wiemer's value last year was his defense in the OF. His bat has a serious "hole" against MLB pitchers, so putting him at an offensive first position seems backwards. Right now (bat unfixed), he is a good 4th/5th OFer because of his D. If he can hit enough to provide value at 1B, he will have a TON of value in the OF. Per the OP, I see Frelick-Mitchell-Chourio as the normal OF. Yelich can DH and play LF when one of the 3 sits. There are plenty of ABs to go around there. TT can be the 5th OFer (or perhaps traded). Wiemer to AAA to work on his swing. If one is traded or hurt, Wiemer/Perkins get called up. Good depth, good upside, good flexibility.
  24. CheezWizHed
    I had responded to this earlier... Yelich at DH makes sense given his back issues. Wiemer to AAA as he needs work on his swing. Then Frelick, Chourio, Mitchell, and TT for the OF. I don't think Chourio forces our hand here. But as you said, some might be trade bait too... I think Mitchell and TT are the most tradeable. I really don't want to get rid of Frelick. And I think we'd be trading Wiemer on a low note.
  25. CheezWizHed
    Yeah, I tend to think the opposite is true. It isn't an automatic that Chourio is ready for MLB ball yet. The deal will pretty much force their hand (probably) to have him in Milwaukee. Without the deal, he most likely starts at AAA and plays his way to MLB - like Frelick and others have done in the past. I think Chourio will play well next year for us, but I'm not sure he will carry our offense.
