Does anyone here actually watch or follow the Gophers Men's Football team? I do not. I learned about Mafe during Senior Bowl week and followed him from a distance at the Combine. Apparently, another teammate is also receiving draft buzz: Would be curious to see if anyone here follows the Gophers and has anything to report about either player.

I've been gushing over Watson because he is essentially the perfect WR for a LaFleur offense and said offense needs speed and weapons. I don't compare CB numbers to WR numbers but, yes, those 3 cone and short shuttle numbers are utterly absurd. That is one hella athletic young man. Glad to see he is getting notoriety because Sam Houston State does not get a lot of publicity or exposure.
-
Great to hear on McCollum. BUT, as always: we'll see where he ends up. Clearly, teams like what they see on tape and love his numbers because he really didn't have all that a great a week in Mobile but he did get better as the week wore on so perhaps it was an adjustment period.

Oliver Hodgkinson just completed and shared his most recent 4 Rd Mock draft over on Pro Football Network. Of all the Packers-themed takeaways from the Analysts who watch tape and make scouting reports and then produce Mocks (which definitely is not all analysts by a country mile), this is probably my favorite draft. A Lot to like in here. This is a version whereby the Packers don't move and stay put - which, given Gutey's history is probably not the case but it would be extremely hard to judge this draft in a negative light. Mock in full here: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/2022-nfl-mock-draft-hodgkinson-april/2/ Packers results extracted for you: I can easily say: I like the projections for every one of these players. If you've never seen Devin Lloyd play, that would be an insanely good 'Value' pick and would give the Packers quite possibly a very solid shot at possessing the most athletic and most disruptive ILB crew in the NFL. He's that good. And, that would be a hilarious about face but with a D-Coordinator as a former ILB coach it would not be that surprising.

File this under: Priority UDFA (or, hey, we have 3 7th's let's take a flyer) Sheeeesh there is some kind of athleticism in the WR draft pool. An 11'3" Broad Jump is absurd. Just absurd.

The Basketball Gods have spoken. Blessed be! Farewell and good riddance Coach K.

https://www.profootballrumors.com/2022/04/kyle-hamilton-in-danger-of-falling-in-the-draft Yes, young Grasshopper. Continue to fall...to 22. Yes. Yes, this is the way.

I like George Hill - I always have. BUT, with the way he is playing at present he does not deserve minutes over Jevon Carter. I know Bud likes to favor his vets, and I get that. BUT, George is not playing very well whereas Jevon Carter is playing lights out and brings all Hill brings and more defensively - he merely lacks George's length. I sincerely hope Jevon gets some Playoff minutes. He is made for the Playoffs.

It is definitely a thing in all sports. IF you want to win that 3rd you really really have to defy that bias. I mean, case and point was that absurd Redick interview. I mean, he didn't even consider Giannis Top 3 IN THE NBA. This is a former NBA player, for crying out loud. It was about as classic a 'Well, Giannis but, yeah, what about this?' stupid take as there is. He continues, somehow and 100% inexplicably, to fly under the radar of Greatness. He is THE best player in the NBA and it isn't really even close. Embiid and Jokic are incredible players. Durant is an incredible talent. Giannis is on another Level.

Spring Training Games Thread - 2022

Yup. Adames was actually arguing fairly vocally to stay in the game - gotta love it. It was probably a cramp? Either way, entirely precautionary. -
Spring Training Games Thread - 2022
Joseph Zarr replied to Joseph Zarr's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Good April Fools performance. 5-3 victory over those men down there in Wrigleyville Luis Perdomo and Miguel Sanchez start it off with 2 scoreless apiece. Rowdy with a ding dong and 2-3 at the plate. Severino with a 2nd HR of his spring. Yelich with a rbi - he closes the Spring with a .280 BA. Let's get rested, ready, and primed to take Series 1 in Wrigley. -
A Random 'Not discussed at all, really' under the radar prospect... Unheralded FCS CB/S Zyon McCollum: Pros: Interesting as a Day 3 pick or priority UDFA (tho, I don't think he'll make it to UDFA) Has size, 4.3 speed, long arms (over 31" long), and a very good nose for the ball (54 total PBU's and 13 career INT's) Invited to both East/West Shrine game and Senior Bowl - obviously, the scouting community has taken notice. Thrived as a Press Man cover CB at the FCS Level...will it translate? See below. Cons: Has some stiffness in his movement even tho he is clearly athletic by his testing numbers - ie, may not play to his testing numbers Struggled early at the Senior Bowl tho he did see improvements by the 3rd day of Practice in 1v1's and was noted for his work there. Can play out of control at times - will need more discipline at the NFL level. May really be a zone CB or strictly a S depending on how his body develops or what a given scouting department sees Not a lot of tape (Sam Houston State is definitively not a CB hot-bed - no CB's drafted since Rickey Royal in 1989!) Here's a slightly humorous compilation tape of Zyon (NSFW. There is some casual profanity in this highlight and commentary. If that doesn't offend you, this guy's perspective and delivery is hilarious):

Jelani Woods. People are starting to see and discuss what I've been saying. Here's Ben Fennel with a direct comp: And, here he is in all his glory: This is truly the most Packer I've felt about a TE prospect possibly ever? I wouldn't think twice if we used one of our 2nd's OR drafted out of the 1st to acquire a 2nd and 3rd to ensure we have the Capital to grab this young man. *I highly suggest clicking on the 2nd Tweet to see 2 more clips of Jelani absolutely mauling. The man is a Beast.*

I'm actually hearing quite a bit of chatter that Linderbaum is potentially falling out of the First Rd. He hasn't really tested and teams are starting to think he is attempting to hide (I don't necessarily believe this, btw) what some already suspect or know: Short arms and light and small for the Interior of the NFL. I can't help but think, however, this kid has a wee bit of Creed Humphrey-like doubting in the Mix. Teams are overthinking a guy who is clearly a stud.
-
In the vein of 'Don't be surprised if the Packers...' (1) Take a Safety in Round 1 (2) Draft an interior OL or Edge in Rd 1 (3) Target an unheralded but fast riser in Rd 1 - such as, UConn interior DL Travis Jones (4) Don't draft a WR in Rd 1 because Olave, Williams, Wilson etc are all gone. (5) Trade out of one of their Rd 1 picks to accumulate more value in a very dense Top 100

This seems like a really good solution. Someone still can post their Mock BUT also address the problem another poster is having. Good work!
-
LOL. Jrue Holiday said just this in his post game presser. I laughed out loud because, my goodness, it really is true. He finds more levels and more levels. The absolutely crazy thing, as a Bucks fan, is we now have the makings of our very own Playoffs assassin. We are now the team other fanbases 'hate'. It is so glorious. Pinch me!
-
Yuppers. That's an entertaining group. Competitive for sure and, well, not overwhelming. That is a Group the USMNT should look at knowing they can move into the next Stage of the Competition if they play up to their potential. At first glance, Canada has a very tough group but what I find most interesting is there doesn't appear to be a true 'Group of Death' in this overall Draw. Several competitive groups but, even with Spain and Germany in the same group, one can say the overall competitiveness was spread pretty fairly which is quite awesome as a soccer fan.

Just adding to dj's post: (I will consciously choose not to make another low-hanging 'Gott' joke. Man, they are literally right there...every post?)
-
Also, @wallus: If you give me a better nickname, I'm all for it. Admittedly, for some inexplicable reason, I have a hard time using 'Hiura', 'Keston', or (please no) 'Special K'. I'm all ears if you have ideas. Let 'em rip if you have some.
-
Well, there isn't anything 'right' with it. I was jokingly using it when his bat started 'heating' up. I'm not married to using it in every post. Fear not. Edit to Add: I'm simply having fun in the doldrums of 2 weeks of ST...if he keeps ringing up HR and bats like this, tho, you might have to get used to my occasional usage.
-
What's wrong with 'Spicy K'. LOL. I was formerly calling him 'Kesty'. I found that wayyyyyy more annoying. LOL.
-
I am just going to say, because it needs to be said, the fact Giannis has been largely considered a 3rd place in this MVP prognosticating and straw polling is patently absurd. No way. No how. Not anywhere. Not ever. You have to perform some very very serious basketball gymnastics, especially after these 2 Master Class performances, to consider that a logical result. Edit to Add: This. Just this. Good gracious basketball Gods almighty... https://twitter.com/Bucks/status/1509727752949182466?cxt=HHwWhMCt4Y7Z0PMpAAAA

Not to mention, all-time leading scorer ON A STEP-BACK 3 POINTER. I mean, COME ON. We are so blessed by his greatness as Bucks fans. Not a game night goes by I don't count my lucky stars I am watching a transcendent and generational talent perform in a Milwaukee Bucks uniform.

I really wish I could disagree with you. But, well, I can't.
