Football General Talk

Today the sycophants will play the race/collusion card.

Daddy will play the god card for relief from embarrassment.


The memers will have a field day. And rightly so.

I saw where Stephen A is already saying the owners are colluding just like they did with Kap.

I think teams believe that he’s not good enough to justify the side show that comes along with him.

Anyone know how much he was making in NIL money versus the salary scale for a 4th or 5th round pick?

Is he going to accept being a back up or having to prove himself might be part of the issue.

Maybe he'll go to the CFL...

It's too bad Bill Tobin isn't alive to see this...

The funny thing is this happens all the time with college players these days. Only difference here is this kids Father is one of the best to ever step on to a football field. mtmuley

No one's disputing Deion's legacy...

I don’t remember Peyton and Eli having difficulty getting drafted due to their fathers playing ability.

Shadeur’s drop is due to him and his dad being obnoxious. He’s also just not that good.

Seems some think Deion's legacy is the issue. mtmuley

Looks like the Browns finally pulled the trigger.
I think he’s gotten a big slice of humble pie, whether he deserved it or not. Hopefully he can turn this into a positive and learn from it. I’d like to see him succeed. I think Cleveland is a great spot for him to sit for a bit and learn and eventually take over.

Junior Bergen off to 9ers 7th round.

Montana's Junior Bergen drafted by San Francisco 49ers in seventh round

Bergen, a Billings Senior graduate, was the 36th selection in the seventh round, and the No. 252 overall pick.

So who's happy with their teams draft? Not particularly happy with the Vikings but thats not unusual. Other than Gabriel I like the Browns draft esp. considering what they got out of added high picks next year when the QB class is stronger. Bears did a nice job giving Williams more help. Lions and Dolphins helped their interior on both sides. Eagles and Raiders did the best IMO. Not a bad day for Brady. He must have a soft spot for small school western QB's though....

As a Packer fan, thrilled. Picks were fine, but more so proud that a small town was able to pull that off. It was 10-years in the making, and the draft transformed the entire area around Lambeau.

Sounds like in-person numbers were really strong and the TV ratings were through the roof. I had my doubts, but sounds (and looked) like they nailed it.

Sure is cool to see a kid that grew up in Billings get drafted. By the 9ers to boot. I'm happy with our draft class. Time will tell.....

I think folks are downgrading their drafting two receivers too much. Their 2nd one Williams is raw but has a lot of potential as a swiss army knife, my comp would be Cordarelle Patterson. Did think Belton was a bit of a reach, but with time he could be a good one.

I hope the experience in Green Bay encourages the league to consider other places, it looked great and went over well. Have an in law that lived a few blocks from Lambeau at one time, there's really nothing like that setting anywhere else.
