      kinda doubt it now that one of winston's handlers said he's not ready.

      • I have seen impossible to unpack paragraphs in many long form articles. Its not the 140 characters. Its the lack of time and editing.
        Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

        • 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

            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.

            • 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.

              • I have lost quite a bit of respect for Jaworski over the years. He seems on his way to becoming a concern troll.

                But the biggest hit his reputation took was discovering it was Cosell, not Jaws, who was watching all that tape for NFL Matchup. I have significant doubt he has independent sources giving him real info about the Bucs plans.

                  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

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

                    • At most TT would trade back and add a 10th. I screwed myself when the guys I was targeting kept getting snagged. Traded back too often, but then, I do not have the confidence in my selections that a pro department would.

                        Quite possibly no defensive back is moving up draft boards faster than Eric Rowe of Utah.

                        As first reported two weeks ago, there’s a feeling Rowe will end up in the second half of round one and won’t get past the 40th pick. The teams I’m hearing highest on Rowe in round one include the Green Bay Packers and Philadelphia Eagles. The Eagles have doubled up on Rowe, that is worked him out and will bring him in for an official visit, as have the Detroit Lions, who believe Rowe can start at either safety or cornerback.

                        Teams who like Rowe but select late in the rounds face a dilemma as most realize if they don’t draft him with their initial selection he won’t be on the board when they’re called on the clock in round two. Teams love Rowe’s size, athleticism and versatility but also feel he’s a smart, coachable player. The New Orleans Saints, Tampa Bay Bucs and Oakland Raiders are also bringing Rowe in for a visit. The Atlanta Falcons are working him out in a few weeks.
                        Getting back to the Green Bay Packers, immediately after the the combine I was told by several sources cornerback Kevin Johnson of Wake Forest is a player that have been targeting in round one.

                              • And the backtracking begins. Bet Jaworski got out over his skis as public draft opinion started to elevate Mariota again and he oversold the general consensus as his "sources". Long term workers at ESPN should start thinking about the long term affects of ESPN employment.

                                In 2013, Ron Jaworski gave ESPN roughly 72 hours of content by declaring that Colin Kaepernick could be one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time.
