Just Ruminating

Best thread in the box...Reminds me of the old Club Dirt 

@idle_havoc

 

We really need a consolidated CD Newsletter for the off-season. Post-Super Bowl banter has been spread out among at least a couple of threads.

Anyone up for it? 

I agree and I will start it but far from the skills needed to be a leader. Took me 10 years to understand why ball-busting was an American thing that will never change, Like a right of passage or close to it. Raised by a very Stoic Dad and picked up all the traits. Covers opened my eyes to it and was always and I mean always taught to help a man up and never condescend. Anyway will put a new start to 2025 . Gonna need a lot of help.  

@JOHNNY_ODAE

 From what I've seen, you simply need to just kick it off and allow everyone else to drive it. Thanks for staring it!

I'm reading now that the Browns just traded the #2 pick to the Jags. 

"Broncos making an aggressive push to move into the Top 10" - per Dianna Russini

Jeanty to the Raiders. Would've much preferred he went to the Bears just to keep him out of the AFC West.

Nice hit, Johnny!

WTF,, Bears? Didn't see that meteoric rise from Loveland coming. Maybe they'll be open to trading Kmet to the Chargers now. 

No they won't. Ben Johnson ran more 2 and 3 TE sets than any team last year.

Also, you don't want Kmet trust me.

The Bears could fuck up a PB&J sandwich. Tyler Warren is a better TE. Good for the Colts

Surely the Browns are gonna take Sanders today and if they don't after working him out earlier sum ting up.

@Biscuiteater1

 Read somewhere that Sanders playing only one sport since the age of 10 has the football minds leery. The good/great ones were multi-sport athletes as in Brady, Patrick and Elway to name a few. 

Quote of the Day 
“I ranked (Jaxson) Dart 28th, which means the value was right in line at #25. He has the arm to drive the ball in the New York weather. He can make plays with his legs. So the pick itself is solid. But trading three Day 2 picks over the next two years to get back into the first round for him, and passing on Sanders — who, again, is #5 overall on my board — makes it less appealing.”
Mel Kiper, Jr FYI: Armadillo Sports

— Tennessee Titans took Miami QB Cam Ward with the #1 pick; Giants later traded up to the 25th pick and took Ole Miss QB Jaxson Dart; they were the only two QB’s drafted.

Cam Ward started 57 college games, albeit at three different schools; Dart played for former NFL head coach Lane Kiffin at Ole Miss.

— Giants traded a 2nd-round pick and two third round picks to Denver to draft Dart, who started for three years at Ole Miss, and threw for 4,279 yards, 29 TD’s for a 10-3 Ole Miss squad that won its bowl game 52-20 over Duke.

2025 NFL schedule release will be Wednesday, May 14; this is a fun night to be in a casino, to see gamblers scurrying to the windows when the opening lines get posted. Found one more nugget.
