The Gipper Posted January 13, 2017 Report Share Posted January 13, 2017 Well this is getting a little bit convoluted but I'd say it's still gambling no matter who I'm playing in poker. I suck at poker. I was great in Euchre in college but mostly with my old partner whom I haven't seen in decades. We didn't cheat nor did we renege just had a parallel style of play. Entered a big tournament and were eliminated in the first round. I think I might have forgotten the point but I guess all I'm saying is that the odds are better but the consensus best player in the draft will be more successful then reaching down ten spots and drafting that lower value guyat number one. WSS What do you mean? I kicked your ass at Euchre. Or maybe not. You and Bob McHenry, right? I guess maybe you did all right. My Kiwanis Club is going to be holding a Euchre tournament in March. You should sign up, and try to dig up Bob to play with you. (though, actually, in this tournament we are always changing partners). I'll be your partner some.

tiamat63 Posted January 13, 2017 Report Share Posted January 13, 2017 Except for the fact I am on record here pre-draft on my examples. And research those you raise... Hence why there needs to be a stickied reference thread for the players people settled on and outright advocated for or against. I know I screenshotted D Bones comment when he called Bosa "average". I still get a kick out of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim Couch Pulls Out Posted January 14, 2017 Report Share Posted January 14, 2017 Hence why there needs to be a stickied reference thread for the players people settled on and outright advocated for or against. I know I screenshotted D Bones comment when he called Bosa "average". I still get a kick out of that. I believe I said he'd be good but not Watt good. I'm prepared to eat crow there. I've made my fair share of dumb predictions. I thought Bortles was good. I still think he can be, but I recognize the probability of him being bad far outweighs it. I thought Carr would be trash, I was far off there. I had faith in EJ Manuel. I also believed in some late round guys becoming eventual starters - Tom Savage, Rakeem Cato and Zac Dysert come to mind. I guess Savage did technically fulfill my prophecy. At the same time I preferred Wentz over Goff, believed Mariota and Winston would become franchise guys, thought TR was trash, thought Osweiler was trash, thought JM was trash, knew Wilson would be worth the pick, knew Zeke and Gurley would be amazing, knew Ponder would suck eggs and grew to hate Cook as the draft neared closer. I'll put myself at a hopeful 50% but a realistic 33%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TexasAg1969 Posted January 14, 2017 Report Share Posted January 14, 2017 The kid from Syracuse will be the next Joe Montana. On the 2017 draft. I finally have figured out the Browns draft logic. Think about it. The Browns traded down when they gave up Modell for Lerner. They just got into the habit of trading down to get shit. 6-3 207 2016 stats 64.8% comp. with 15 TD 7 INT 2678 yds 138.2 Rat. 4-8 w/l record What do you see that tells you he is Montana other than having better college stats (excluding Monana's 9-3 1978 w/l record) this past year and about the same size? Now granted when Syracuse HC Dino Babers was OC @ A&M I used to joke that he carried his playbook in a matchbook cover. He was relieved of those duties mid-season by Slocum. He got better learning from Art Briles @ Baylor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unsympathetic Posted January 14, 2017 Report Share Posted January 14, 2017 So Elflein has played himself into a day 3 pick.. if he's the answer, the Browns don't need to be the question. Pocic at the top of round 3? I don't like those odds.. he could be over-drafted even at 3/1. Never great when you hear a center isn't very good at run-block.

Tour2ma Posted January 14, 2017 Report Share Posted January 14, 2017 Beer? Now I want poker as well... Hard to say when, Steve... not seeing a visit for a Browns game this season. And barring some major construction activity I've not yet heard of, I don't see a mid-west "Coaster Tour" this summer. If I do attend the Draft in Philly, still pending, then I might slide in for a couple days just to stay in touch with the area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tiamat63 Posted January 17, 2017 Report Share Posted January 17, 2017 Why not? Serious lack of explosion, questionable hand usage to keep lineman from getting into his pads, no counter move. Just not impressive as a pass rusher, basically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
