That would be a belter of a London game, but would be a marketing/commercial feck up from the NFL if they give Burrow @ Lousiana to the UK.
I've sat through enough Jags games at Wembley. I've paid my dues. I deserve this :lol:

Packers in the international games!? They said they'd never do it, but the one person at the Packers who has pushed hard for it in previous years... Aaron Rodgers.

I'm still expecting him to leave, but a lot of fans seem to think it's part of the effort to keep AR happy. Possibly a crackpot theory, but he's wanted to play in London and GB resisted pressure from the league, and him, for years.

Tickets are hard enough to get for games like Jets Vs Falcons. Packers might be a tough ask.

Is that part of why people think he’s announcing that he is staying tomorrow?

For the record I don’t think he’s leaving. I think he’s staying.

Re: tickets yep. Fortunately I’ve had a “season ticket” since 2015 for London games so I’m generally comfortable.

Same with regards to ST for London and Tottenham stadium

This situation is pretty interesting.

There’s some talk that the coaching staff were due a playoff bonus last season but the owner refused to pay the cheques as he wasn’t happy with how they lost, and the bonuses were seemingly discretionary.

And now Kylers agent, who also reps Kingsbury, comes out with this super public and aggressive tactic.

Also also Steve Keim is scheduled for a media appearance at the start of the combine, which is now going to be all about Kylers contract situation.

Apparently KM came out with a ‘Go Bucs’ Gram post. Haven’t seen it, no clue if it is even true.

Point of the story is that we do not want.

Quite literally Joe Burrow Jr then, as he’s already been called due to exploding onto the scene in his last season.

Should be a 1st rounder. Malik Willis is the one to watch to be the first QB off the board, methinks.

He and Strong are the names I keep seeing but I saw one guy (can’t remember who it was) sayin Willis isn’t first round calibre and Strong should be the one to opt for so long as both are available.

Edit;


It was Tim Jenkins in this vid.

Huh…been hearing mostly negatives regarding Strong after the Senior Bowl. His arm not looking as impressive as we thought when next to Malik being one.

I guess that aspect of the draft will all revolve around Carolina and Denver at 6 & 9. My hot take for the draft so that I could look smart afterwards was going to be Pickett and Strong going there, respectively. Now I’m thinking that was too spicy.

It’s gonna be interesting to see how FA plays out before we get to the draft, but I’d expect both teams to pick a QB no matter what they do. Even if Rodgers moves it’s a short term solution.

It's almost midnight and I'm looking on Twitter for a schedule when Treylon Burks et al run their 40s, this is as bad as it gets probably.

4.50 and 4.55 runs. Somebody started a rumor a while back on reddit he’d break the 4.3 barrier… :lol: Also 6’2” even and no ginormous hand size requiring special gloves.

Steve Young and Tony Romo fare well despite "small" hands and yet Paxton Lynch sucked ass despite massive hands.
Well on the one hand, there has not been a proven correlation between hand size and QB success. But on the other, his are quite small: only 6 QBs in the past 30ish years had smaller hands. That’s out of 663 people.

It is not a deal-breaker, but it is a point of curiosity...or just a useless trivia bit that I like to collect.

Garrett Wilson is verrrrry nice at 4.38 :drool: Burks somewhat disappointing but also not disastrous at his size (friggin' 225lbs). Read a study yesterday that argued that the 10-yard split time was more important for RBs and WRs anyway.

Wan'Dale Robinson measured in 5'8, that's a major concern imo.

I don't think Cowboys fans need to be outraged about this. Can't stay healthy most of the times, had a down year in production last year, and they have a new alpha with Lamb. Contract specifically designed to get rid after 2 season as well apparently.

Unvaccinated player - better to get rid of. Simple logic.

That’s definitely not the point here. All Covid rules have breen dropped by the league as well.

London, in a simple twist of fate, actually improved his stock by measuring shorter and heavier than listed.

The number of 6’5” 205# WRs that have excelled in the pros is extremely small but, even though the numbers don’t look wildly different, 6’ 3 7/8” 220# is a different story. Also helps explain why he’s been such a YAC threat.

Yeah I'm ok with Cooper going he tends to disappear too many games particularly away from home.

I would be surprised if we keep D Law as well going by reports we are more keen on keeping Randy Gregory

Damn, Breece Hall trying to take over the consensus 1.01 in fantasy rookie drafts.

Only an inferior landing spot should derail him at this point.

Yeh, like you I think Cooper and Lawrence are really good players but probably not worth the money they're due. Could likely pick up players that are not that much worse but for a fraction of the price. Hopefully the cap space is spent on real positions of need though.

It is going to be funny if they let Cooper go and then Jerry takes Burks because he’s from Arkansas.

Not funny for the rest of the NFC East though, as Burks is still a monster even after finding out he’s not a track star.
