I've been going back over some of Te'o's games from this past year. I know I'll get grief for it, but the dude is not terrible. He's very intuitive, and quick to discern how the play is going to break. He is a bit slow, but pretty damn good in coverage. Besides the hoax/religion/circus crap, I think he's a decent player. Maybe not worthy of a first, but for a team hungry for an lb he might get snapped up.

Pead has an attitude issue. Like Jenkins from what I understand. Just don't want to work and think it should be handed to them. Could turn it around. Still very young. But of all the positions, RB should be where it's easy to come in year one
edit: Teo is a fine 4-3 MLB. But he probably can't play on third downs, so it's tough to take him too high.

Most people know he isnt terrible he is an average athlete with excellent football IQ. Hell before the whole drama scene came into being I was really hoping the Vikings would get a shot at him.
As for the Alabama game, everybody has bad games. He was just unfortunate enough to have it happen when everyone was watching. In addition, when a linebacker looks bad its almost always because everyone else is fucking up too, especially the Dline.

Mcshay has spoken.

Oh I wasn't aware he was asking for that much. Well screw him.
I saw that earlier today on another board! McShay is hit or miss. He was dead on with Osweiler last year.
Godslay is just trying to talk himself into it
I'd be fine with Teo playing for Denver. It's a definite position of need with Brooking not coming back, Mays sucks, and only Steven Johnson remains. I trust Del Rio and Elway to bring the goods, and if Teo is it, then so be it. I personally don't think it will happen because Elway won't want another Tebow type polarizing player on the squad. Could be wrong though.
Edit: Even if he doesn't land in Denver, I still think he's a decent LB.

I actually honestly hate Mcshay just as much as I do Merril Hoge. They're the same person to me.
I know it's coming so I'll say it

Agreed.

UGH YEA DON'T WATCH NO NBATV CUZ MY TEAM DON'T EXIST!

I remember they had Tannenbaum talk about cap situations on NFL network before :lol
I didn't even realize that rhymed when I typed it. I'm a secret lyrical genius. Macklemore must be rubbing off on me by being in the same city.
If you listen to top 40/hip hop and r&b radio I can guarantee you've heard one of his songs. If not, probably not.

I've heard of him, just haven't actually taken the time to listen to any of his music or anything.
...maybe one day
We can be basement dwellers together. Fuck the Mariners though. They deserve the empty seats and lost money for trying to block the Sonics from coming back. It's a shame because everyone from the GM down is pretty likable. The guys running the show are just terrible for the city and for the franchise. If they really want to increase revenue, don't try to block competition - improve your product.
Are the Kings going to be re-named if they move to SEA? That's BS!
They are. They'd be stupid not to name them the Sonics, that name still means a lot to the city. Wouldn't be surprised (and would prefer) if they let the Kings name and history stay in Sacramento though. People just want a team here, they don't care which one it is.
Why would I be pissed? They should give him a blank check. Big NFL contracts are only bad if you are unwilling to cut a guy in his last year or two when the big roster bonuses hit. We rode Favre out of town, Fraudgers will get the same when his useful life is depleted. Then we'll stick another bum in there to ride the green and gold into the hall of fame.
Fraudgers will play out this contract unless something goes horribly wrong.
He is getting paid. And he will probably get one more deal.

He's no star but he got turnovers and well...made the biggest clutch play in the history of the franchise. I'm pretty pleased with what he did.

Never wanted him anyway.....
I just hope they like what they see in Jordan. Otherwise we could see TE in Round 1 when we have other more pressing holes.
Dee Milliner seems like our guy if he drops to us.
I definitely prefer for us to make our defense as strong as possible before really tackling the offense.
Cry me a river.
I have not been able to play Fire Emblem nearly as much as I want to. I am near the end of the game and I am delaying finishing it and trying to recruit and level up as many kids as I can. Getting two characters support level up to sex level can be boring because I don't give a fuck about a lot of these characters, but usually their kids become super powerful so it is usually worth it.
I am glad I did not just splooge on my stat increasing items early on. I still have no clue who to use them on, but it will probably be on mostly the kids to make them even godlier.
Luigi sounds like a lot of fun, but I need sleep and I will probably stop gaming for awhile until the next must play (for me) comes out or I get the itch again.
If we get Milliner I'd consider the offseason a pretty solid success. What's McShay's latest mock say? Are the Eagles not taking Milliner any more?

Hello Browns thread
Didn't you just buy it like this week?
That sucks. Hopefully you can return it or Nintendo will hook you up. Their customer service is pretty awesome if you get the right person on the phone and you know how to talk to them.

I think I might honestly rather trade down and take Rhodes or Trufant instead of Millner.
Also I think theirs a good chance we could take tyrann in the 3rd, double dip and get a guy to play the nickel.

Wait why are the Mariners trying to block the Kings from moving to Seattle?
I hope Seattle gets the team. The new place they designed looks amazing.
I'd love to get Mathieu. We need playmakers in the secondary, period.
Do that and take say, Kenny Stills in the 5th to boost the passing game and I'm happy. Even if he is a dirty Sooner.

You're in luck! We have private workouts with both Tyrann and Stills!
Also batman, more pressing need then TE you savage!
