looking forward to the 85 Bears 30 for 30 :)

 

It should be good. I just watched the Buffalo Bills 30 for 30, that was enjoyable.

Phil Emery joining the Falcons front office. I found Shea McClellin's destination in free agency. All joking aside, that's where Phil belongs. He's a good dude and a decent scout. He has a place in an NFL front office. Shouldn't be in charge though.

Expect to see a bunch of dudes in Atlanta who have great measurables but can't play football. Also, 1st round draft picks that are expected to "contribute on special teams" this year, or whatever his comment was about McClellin. You draft a 1st rounder to be a starter and impact player from Day 1 (obvious exception at QB if you have a current starter, a la Packers with Favre/Rodgers). Not a guy who can play on Special Teams. What a clown.

Bears taking a close look at QB Carson Wentz. Measured out at 6'5 233 pounds and 10 inch hands

Are they?

Wentz has all the physical attributes of a potentially good NFL quarterback but like all the rest he has so many weaknesses (and that's at the collegiate level) that he would be a HUGE project. But I guess you have to roll the dice on someone for that position until it hits.

All of my guys getting rave reviews at the senior bowl. Love to see that.

Who?

It is nice to see a SEMO guy getting some attention. Look out for Paul McRoberts at the Senior Bowl

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jan 26, 2016 -> 10:07 PM)
Who?

Braxton Miller, Josh Perry, Adolphus Washington, Tyvis Powell, Nick Vannett and Noah Spence.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jan 25, 2016 -> 07:14 PM)
They won't let him walk, that is moronic. I think they want to make sure they have depth and never have to go out there with Bellamy, Mariani and Meredith ever again

They do have inside information on his injury history. He isn't valuable if he isn't on the field.

That doesnt mean you let him walk

What are your thoughts on Darron Lee?

 

Is he big enough to play ILB?

No, he's a walkout OLB that can cover TE's in today's game. Ryan Shazier-like.

Ryan Shazier plays ILB in Pittsburgh

Sorry, I was referring to a 4-3. ILB in a 3-4 as the one that will cover slot/TE

That is what the Packers need a LB that can cover RB/TE.

 

I think this is becoming one of the most important positions on defense. Seeing a lot more mobile LB.

I gotcha. I think Lee can play WILB in a 34 front. Probably a WLB in a 43 as well.

Got an e-mail from Ted Phillips today saying that they are lowering season ticket preseason prices by 40%, while increasing regular season ticket prices by 10%, as part of new "variable" pricing. As a whole, the cost of a full season will stay the same.

 

I know some people will fall for it, but a load of s***. That changes nothing.

He's not awful vs the run but he is undersized. He made up for it with technique, speed and strength in college.

Yeah, but basically will remove the feeling that they are "losing" money when they sell them.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jan 27, 2016 -> 08:05 AM)

It does if they think there are underlying issues for the injuries and they don't think he will remain healthy.

It may get more non season ticket holders to the preseason games. I think that is the goal.

Braxton Miller is projected in 4th round range

 

Kansas City and New England are apparently eyeing Miller in the 2nd round. I actually think he would fit excellently in both of those offenses.

Matt Miller ‏@nfldraftscout 4m4 minutes ago

The buzz around the Browns and Carson Wentz at #2 is real.

Yep, he's now being projected 2nd round after his performance at practice.
