@battl2heaven I personally wasn’t as crazy about him coming out
In fairness to Golday, I’m not as into the tweener LB types who are better as blitzers than coverage players. He might turn out to be a good player, this is just not my flavor of guy and Minnesota already has several of him lol
English
I still struggle to see how Golday is going to find an outsized role on a defense where Blake Cashman and Andrew Van Ginkel are both better versions of what he can bring to the table.
Minnesota didn’t need another downhill thumper or tweener type in its LB room.

The Vikings don’t want to rush 2nd round pick LB Jake Golday’s acclimation off the bat, @alec_lewis says via @TheAthletic. “They view him as a defender who can do Van Ginkel-ish things, but mastering the off-ball linebacker role is his first challenge.”

Who is the worst QB in this picture?

@JaguarGator9NFL As someone who isn’t tapped into college football much, why was Meyer so successful at that level? Just a great recruiter?

Turns out when you assault your own player, your employer can fire you for cause

@PurpyNFL I think sports cities have unique cultures, but the local media are shaped the city’s culture, not the other way around.

@Robert_J_Miske @SomethingEra2 You think that means they must have drafted well?
English
@TheHitmanStan @SomethingEra2 They have 6 fucking Superbowls! What are you talking about?
English
Good. Im tired of nerds in suits drafting based on analytics, the coaches make the gameplan, they should be drafting guys who fit that gameplan. Id prefer every draft ran by Flores and KOC fuck it.
VikingzFanPage@vikingzfanpage
People around the league thought the Minnesota #Vikings had a very “coach-heavy draft,” per @JFowlerESPN. “"How much influence did Brian Flores have [on the selections]?" one AFC exec asked. "It felt like a lot. Felt like a coach-heavy draft."

@clay8269 @SamMonsonNFL Where did he say that the center was too light?
English
@SamMonsonNFL Centers usually way far less than the rest of the line! holy fuck your dumb!!!!!!!

The line AVERAGES 325lbs and they have a 295lb player on it.

@thatman109 @CfbSelect @_johnleone I don’t think “most college fans watch NFL” is true. Maybe in parts of the country that’s true, but not in the South.
English
@CfbSelect @_johnleone Wrong. Most college fans still watch NFL, while many NFL fans don’t watch college at all. NFL will always win (I love college football btw)
English
I have a take that people may not like.
Viewing experience trend for every sport right now in my eyes:
NBA📉
CBB📉
CFB📉
NFL📈
NHL📈
MLB📈
Still watch them all and love doing it.

@Football1882 @SamMonsonNFL So why do you think the word “reach” is so widely used in draft discussions? Might it be that people are using the word in a different way than your conception of it?
English
@Football1882 @SamMonsonNFL If that’s your definition of reach, then who could you ever say is a reach? It would always be speculation about someone else’s evaluation.
English
@SamMonsonNFL They didnt "reach", they had a different evaluation.
A reach is when you are drafting players who you have ranked ahead of them because of need or whatever

@SeanBormanNFL What % of the DT franchise tag would this be equivalent to?

@beefcake_180 I think McCoy is going to fall to round 2 or later bc of medical issues.

@SportDunceDiary @mdotbrown Wasted opportunity for what should have been an incredible documentary.
They had Percy Harvin, Aaron Hernandez, the Pouncey twins, Will Hill, Riley Cooper, and Tim Tebow on the same team.
English
@mdotbrown Netflix passing off fluff as sports docs.
The Florida one was just Urban Meyer pr. Storytelling in sports is dying because there’s too much money at stake for those involved.

Haven’t watched it yet but tbh this is the problem with almost every doc these days

@Jordan_Reid @BenjaminSolak Love our tackles, but if Fano is there at 18 idc we’ll figure it out

@Cashbinoo @BillSimmons If that were the case then anyone who wins an MVP (and actually deserved it) would qualify, and that doesn’t seem even close to how Simmons is describing it here.
English
@TheHitmanStan @BillSimmons Come on man. He specifically says “I think he gets it for that year”
He’s clearly taking years into account

Hey dickhead — LeBron finished 2016 winning the last 3 final games and the title. You should worry about your own career, this will be the highlight of yours that i responded to you. There’s a reason you are where you are.

Memory-holing unanimous MVP Steph is so fucking crazy lmao Steph was gettin MJ comps in 2016 Love Simmons but good god take something for the dementia
English
@Cashbinoo @BillSimmons He’s saying those could’ve been tipping points.
English
@TheHitmanStan @BillSimmons It’s literally not. He specifically in the video is calling out specific seasons where curry seemed better like 2022.
Do you even know what the discussion is?
