    Texas A&M Commerce is the new Colorado School of Mines for Ted I guess.

    Packer Report ‏@PackerReport 28m28 minutes ago
    @WesHod had the news of Texas A&M-Commerce WR Ricky Collins' visit. Wait until you see my story on him later tonight.

    With pre-draft visits underway, #Packers are scheduled to meet with intriguing Texas A&M-Commerce WR Ricky Collins http://pck.rs/1ydJaCi
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    We only hear about the times coaches went head over heels for a terrible pro prospect. There has to be some success stories, right?

    Can confirm Illinois TE Matt LaCosse making a pre-draft visit to #Packers Friday. Was a Ron Zook recruit. Ran 4.64 at #Illini pro day.

    6'6", 258 lbs. ex-basketball star, runs the 40 in 4.64, good football intelligence, versatile, hmmmm...TT might have something here.

    This is why I can't see TT using a high draft choice on a guy like Maxx Williams. Besides having R. Rodgers already, Williams-style TE can be had in the later rounds or UDFA easy enough.
    One time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics. He held up a ball and said: "This is a football." McGee immediately called out, "Stop, coach, you're going too fast," and that gave everyone a laugh.

    I still take Mariota before Winston. Winston put his team in some deep holes by not being disciplined...and he'll do the same in the NFL.

    Anyone want to help me unpack this?

    LIES! #NFL clubs at #Draft time. Most let it out of the bag. Polian never did. Wolf did. One Club started rumor client gay-then drafted him.

    Cindrch (if this is the father and I think it is) is a legend in agent community. His time is largely past, but had a lot of players under contract and some big names. He would have some stories.

    He's saying clubs would use rumors to impact players' draft stock, sexual orientation included. No shocker there.

    Yeah, but is he saying Wolf made one up or just let a secret out of the bag?

    I think what he was saying is that Wolf was the informant for that practice but I could be wrong.. Fucking Twitter...

    Yeah, that's kinda where I came down. Wolf, as is his wont, fessed up. Pollen denies it happens or that he participates.

    Another example of why I think twitter is the worst thing to come around in a long time. So many people are committed to it, but it is so easily misunderstood. Regarding the above, I think there is yet another interpretation, if you look at Cindrich's earlier entry:

    So you can lie, defame a candidate in politics & it's ok? Sen Reid-Nevada. Little wonder we lack moral fiber. Screw you-it's just wrong.

    Then, in the one pbmax quotes, what if "Most" is a typo, and it should be "Must", as in he himself (Cindrich) must let the cat out of the bag? In that case he is saying that Polian never lied, Wolf did and someone he didn't name started a gay rumor.

    As one of the big time agents, Cindrich doesn't need any informant about the practice, he knows from first hand experiences with it. As a real insider into the draft, signing and personnel world of the NFL, a guy who knew the GMs well, he knew the liars, the cheats and the honest ones.

    Good post Patler. I agree.

    I have seen impossible to unpack paragraphs in many long form articles. Its not the 140 characters. Its the lack of time and editing.

    I find it to be mostly the limited characters. It is impossible to provide context for interpretation, and simple phrases on their own are often ambiguous.

    Ran through another mock. I traded down a few times and found myself in no-mans-land where the best players were all WRs and RBs... Had to trade up twice as well. The more I do this, the more I lament our draft position @30...

    042 - R2P10 - LB STEPHONE ANTHONY, CLEMSON
    074 - R3P10 - TE CLIVE WALFORD, MIAMI (FLA.)
    094 - R3P30 - RB DAVID JOHNSON, NORTHERN IOWA
    105 - R4P06 - CB JOSH SHAW, SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA
    126 - R4P27 - CB IFO EKPRE-OLOMU, OREGON
    141 - R5P05 - WR CHRIS CONLEY, GEORGIA
    144 - R5P08 - TE TYLER KROFT, RUTGERS
    146 - R5P10 - CB KEVIN WHITE, TCU
    166 - R5P30 - DT XAVIER WILLIAMS, NORTHERN IOWA
    182 - R6P06 - FB TYLER VARGA, YALE
    186 - R6P10 - LB XZAVIER DICKSON, ALABAMA
    206 - R6P30 - DT JOEY MBU, HOUSTON
    210 - R6P34 - CB CRAIG MAGER, TEXAS STATE
    213 - R6P37 - OT ANDREW DONNAL, IOWA

    Both of the DTs I picked are nose tackles. I was trying to hit the side of a pig's ass with a handful of gravel.

    Must get Anthony or I'll be disappointed. Like the 14 picks, but I think TT will stand pat on his 9.

    Ron Jaworski says sources indicating Bucs could take Mariota #1 instead of Winston. http://fansided.com/2015/04/13/marcu...mors-jaworski/

    I realize a lot of stuff gets leaked by teams this time of year that isn't true, but it wouldn't surprise me. I've always thought Mariota is the type of QB Lovie Smith would rather have.

    when i watched the 2 of them play each other this year i came away thinking mariota looked like the better QB on the field. add in all the off field stuff with winston, and i would think it's a no brainer who the first QB taken is

    i also don't think either one is worth a shit, i think they're both closer to geno smith then andrew luck. i don't think either one SHOULD be a first rounder, and i doubt either amounts to much in the pros

    i'm glad we aren't a team thats desperate for a franchise QB, it really makes you do stupid things
