Well it IS the Bills so its not entirely out of the realm. Not probable but not that far fetched

Hibbert might break down early too, but that is not what happened to him.
Dude just quit on his team and does not give any fucks.
Even if his body broke down he would go from being good/really good to below average. But he hasn't looked like an actual pro for months and seems to be getting worse each month. I mean how the fuck can a guy that big play that many minutes and not get a rebound? Even someone who is short and unathletic is going to get a few rebounds per game just by being on the floor. Someone who spends all his time in the paint should finish with no less than 6 rebounds per 20 minutes (and that is shitty).
No there is something seriously wrong with that team and Hibbert seems to be at the heart of it. Hopefully it will come out in the summer as soon as the Wizards get through embarrassing them.

Can't say that I am a fan. The WR position is so deep this year. Take the best guy there at 10 or trade down for someone like Pryor from Louisville. Lions could use a thumper in the secondary.
Da fuck? He's been subjected to some of the dumbest fucking morons in coaching, QBs and personnel evaluation. I'll always be on his side. I know that Dre is a badass. BoB hasn't proven shit
I'm guessing the Bills writer for ESPN has been feeling a little unappreciated lately.
Calm down..
.Andre Johnson wasn't at minicamp today. O'Brien emphasizes it's voluntary, says "we just coach who shows up." #Texans
Ah. Should have been clear I was mad at BoB. I kind of took it that BoB was being passive aggressive towards Dre. I wish he was there, but it is ultimately voluntary
Im positive it isn't a situation where Dre just didn't show. Almost guarantee he called ahead and said why he couldn't attend. Honestly he is probably the only one on the team that can possibly get away with it
I thought you said he tanked so the Texans could take him at #33?
Well...yeah!....grain of salt Wes.

I think Vrabel needs a jersey. /still in good shape //Linebacker group thin. #Texans

Whitney Mercilus received more coaching in this session from Vrabel than I have seen from prior camps. Vrabel is fun to watch. #Texans
Based Vrabel!

I could see the Browns moving up to get Manziel. It kind of adds up- an owner who has nothing to lose and desperate to add value and positivity to the franchise after a horrible beginning to his ownership, dwindling season ticket holders, an active free agency that makes it seem like they feel that they are a player or two away and a horrible QB problem that never gets addressed.
jeez...it was a joke. But I am the only Texan fan who will openly state: I would trade him at this point. he deserves it and we can still get something for him.
Thanks. I just opened Chrome and that works. It is a mess in there. need some sort of chart to follow and not a jumbled mess of words.
That's the problem for STL. If they go defense at 2, then they miss on all the offensive guys they want at 13. If they can't trade down from 2 then they have to draft offense and probably go CB at 13

What would yall rather have?
A 4 day draft split like:
Day 1: Picks 1-10
Day 2: Picks 11-32
Day 3: Rounds 2-4
Day 4: Rounds 5-7
held at the regular date in April
OR
A 2 day draft split like the old NFL Drafts held in the middle of May

2-day draft was perfect. In HS, we woke up the morning after Prom and just watched the draft all day Saturday.

2 day draft. No question.

Buffalo doesn't make moves like that, not even for sure thing drafts. They sure as hell aren't going to do it for another DE when they've just locked up their DL for the foreseeable future.

brady would be shaking in his uggs if you guys grabbed clowney though
would that be the best front 7 in the league? i'd say so.

Two Day draft for sure. The 4 day format rewards later first round picks as they get another day to readjust
and idk if anybodys actually gonna watch day 4 when that rolls around.

Jadeveon Clowney spoke with Texans GM "two or three" times last week, Clowney said.
Hmmmm.....

@DeepSlant how many times did Manziel speak to the GM last week?

It probably already is. Problem is that the secondary is so terrible now that they'd be utterly stupid taking another DE. If they take Clowney, it'd be because he fell to 9 and he was the best player left on the board, but there is zero possibility they move up to take him.

Claws in kitty cat. Uncle Rog was the one who said that a 4 day draft was under consideration, I'm just the messenger.
If you have a problem, take it up with the NFL League Offices

I decided to skip it, sounds like it is a huge mess which is sad since I normally really like those games. Oh well maybe next year they will have a better handle on things.
I want to see if a defense can succeed while only having a good front 7, you guys can test it out for me.
dont fuck wit me m8 ill giv u a right wollop

Hey, we also have one linebacker worth 3 men. All we need is a secondary, a QB that doesn't break on contact, and another wideout and we may win up to 8 games!

Two day draft. Splitting the first round into two days is laughable excess.
I'd be ecstatic with Gilbert
A lot of mocks recently have mosley going to the packers but I don't see him getting past Baltimore and Miami
