Complicated defenses are only a problem when you're in the Steelers situation and have a ton of talent holes, not a crew of dominant horses that are resistant to injury.

That depends if Gilbert drops or not. There's going to be a CB hungry team that will take Gilbert before Evans imho.
What qualifies as a Cuban sandwich, Mexican sandwich etc.?
I mean technically a Torta is a Mexican sandwich, and while they're delicious, I don't see anything that separates them from a regular sandwich i.e. meat, veggies, condiments between two pieces of bread.
That "Cuban" sandwich looks like a regular sandwich to me. Don't see whats so Cuban about it. I'm not saying I wouldn't devour the hell out of it but what makes it Cuban? Is there some sort of cigar tobacco in it?

Well, Baalke was right, our D-line starters played an absurd 93% of snaps in 2012. They were completely beat by the time the playoffs rolled around - as shown by the 14PPG increase in points scored against us.
Dline was much more fresh this year and it showed in the playoffs.

You sound like you want to be participant 3 in the DK post-combine mock draft of boredom!
I'll offer up that sandwich for your coach, it's a fate better than the browns.

Lol I was just wondering what FMT was like? I picture he was somthing like the members of Browns Gaf.When I lurked I remember seeing glimpses of FMT before Harbs came into his life.
He didn't look well.

Futurevoid can handle all mock drafting for Giants fans.
My mocking usually leads to a lineman falling to Giants. I tried my hardest to make a mock last year having Chance Warmack, but I couldn't manage to make a sensible mock for that.

The bread is the most important differentiator. If you want an authentic Cuban, then it must use Cuban bread ( which is similar to French bread except it includes a fat element like lard ). It has a flakier crust and softer middle and is a bit more rectangular. It originated primarily in Florida. The rest of the ingredients are ham, roasted pork, swiss, mustard and pickles. Has to be mustard. I've seen places try to pass off a Cuban with fucking Mayo. Irritates me.

2012... Their Super Bowl year? If they were too beat after a 2 week vacation they had no chance to win.
Aldon Smith had shoulder surgery right after, Justin Smith was playing with a partially torn triceps. It was a result of being overplayed in the regular season.
No pass rush that entire post season.

Lions take any WR at 10 you win. They take anything else I win. Loser wears the ac from the draft to the start of the season

Aww the team who never gets injured had injuries? You're right. They were fucked.
When I lurked I remember seeing glimpses of FMT before Harbs came into his life.

I think we all just need to be there for him to comfort him through the rocky times ahead.
Don't get too cocky. This is the Lions we're talking about. Gata may have taken a stupid bet, but you are inching closer to the Gata if you don't think there is a chance the Lions take a receiver. The Lions are known to take shitty receivers with their early picks in the draft.

I went to this mexican place called el gallo giro here in the valley and they have very good food, so one day I ordered their Cuban sandwich, figured it was an actual cuban (never had one before so I didn't know the difference), it looked like this:
it's basically bread, avocado, lettuce, tomato, jalapenos, ham, head cheese, 5 different types of meat. I thought it was pretty good, especially with the 5 layers of meat, but then one day I went with some co-workers to a Cuban restaurant and had another one...while I was shocked that it wasn't like the first one I had tried it was soooo freaking good and now I know the difference lol

Deal.

EDIT: MRSA where is this local Bahn Mi in Southern Cali? Holy shit that looks delicious. I love me some Pho but never tried the Vietnamese take on sandwiches.

I think Yankey is a first rounder. 20-30's, IMO. Prefer to move back into round 1 and pick up extra picks. I do like him more than Su'a- Filo. A bit younger, better footwork in the admittedly limited film I've seen of both hough i think Filo is the nastier of the two.
If we stay put at 12, grab Ebron and take Filo early in the second if he's still on the board.
Dream draft scenario for me.Uh, it doesn't look like that really, that's a glamor shot you drunk Lions fan.
But there's tons of banh mi shops in SoCal you degenerate. I'll tell you what me and you will split some oxycodone, a 12 pack, and 6 banh mi sandwiches.

That's is a disgrace to Cuban Sandwiches everywhere.

Ebron is a receiving TE, no? Sure the Giants want him?I think Yankey is a first rounder. 20-30's, IMO. Prefer to move back into round 1 and pick up extra picks. I do like him more than Su'a- Filo.

well they call it the Cuban so I figured :/ This was years ago though when my food palate consisted of whatever I could keep down after a night of drinking.

Gallo Giro is a fast food chain. And their "cubana" torta is not a cuban sandwich. Also, their quality has taken a huge dive as of late. :\ They weren't amazizing, but they were pretty good for a big chain.

I've mostly seen the Giants mocked an OT, but now it seems everyone is moving Lewan up as a possible top 10. Can't say I've looked much at TEs as the Rams are stuck with Cook. I thought XSF moved better in the position drills than Yankey, but that's all I've really seen of either
Different offense this year with McAdoo.
edit. I want an OT so we can kick back Pugh back inside. Having a guard that can play OT is an asset that the Giants traditionally value very highly.

Haven't gone in forever since I've been to a ton of better mexican places, here in the valley there is a place called Las Fuentes that's miles better, my family used to know the owners too. I know they expanded too so I'm sure that quality took a hit

He's flashed as a blocker. After I asked the question earlier I did some digging on him and he's not hopeless in that regard. The offense is changing with McAdoo and a pass catching big tight end is something the Giants haven't had since Shockey.
Adrien Robinson isn't the answer.

Just to be sure we're all on the same page: Fuck the Pats, right?
Not sure where Zack Martin will go but he's supposed to be this year's Pugh. That's the really nice thing about Mathews is that he can probably play all 5 OL positions

Harbs coaching up the Red Rifle? Watch out NFL!
Don't think he's going to want to coach a team with Mike Brown calling the shots and a $18m/yr Red Rifle

Could be worse. I went to UC Davis, so the list is pretty much just Ken O'Brien.
Otherwise you get to guys like Mike Moroski, Bo Eason, Kevin Daft, and J.T. O'Sullivan.
