I like the Foskey pick. I love it when your NFL team drafts someone from your college team

That could be a pretty nasty defense next year.

Eagles draft Kelee Ringo in the fourth. Might as well ditch the bird for a bulldog already

Seahawks needed some offensive injection at WR and RB, and it's been a turnstyle of running backs, and running back by committee since Lynch left years back, so give this a shot.

They've got the later rounds (like they have already picked today with a guard) to fill some of the other "less skilled" positions.

The Eagles are acquiring D'Andre Swift from the Lions for a swap of 2023 seventh-round picks.

Lions also got: a fourth-round pick in 2025.

Belichick is having some fun today. First, he trades up in the 4th with the Jets (!) to take a kicker, now he takes a punter in the 6th.

all that's left is a long snapper in the 7th. Come on Bill, you know you want to.

Yeah, that Kenneth Walker is a hack.

He's fine, and a great rookie year.

But it's been a two headed monster, at best the last 8 years since Lynch and Carroll has always had two RB at USC.

Since Lynch (1.0), the random running backs that featured on the team:
Thomas Rawls
Christine Micheal
Chris Carson has a couple good years.
Alex Collins
Rashad Penney
CJ Prosise
Travis Homer

Deejay Dallas was the second string with 435 yards in his career. Getting an upgrade there with the guy from UCLA, assuming Walker can be consistent, is a shot the Seahawks need on offense along with another WR they got.

Geno is a accuracy passer and very smart, so getting the ball into more skilled hands isnt an issue, it's going to be up to the players to make more of the touches, and, have defenses gameplan to cover more than just Lockett and Metcalf out wide.

Was wondering if the guy with the name of the year would get drafted but he did not

However,

Bumper Pool.... a LB from Arkansas has signed as an UDFA with the Panthers.

Yes, his legal name is Bumper Pool. He legally changed it from James Pool to Bumper when he turned 16

Continuing to surround Aaron Rodgers with familiar faces, the New York Jets are expected to sign former Green Bay Packers wide receiver Randall Cobb to a one-year contract, league sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Wednesday.

THis why the NFL is on its own level when it comes to major sports.

Quote:
Super Bowl LVII was the most-watched U.S.-based telecast of all time, according to revised data announced Tuesday by ratings agency Nielson.

The Kansas City Chiefs' 38-35 victory over the Philadelphia Eagles on Feb. 12 drew an average of 115.1 million viewers across all platforms, nearly 2 million more than Nielsen's previous announcement.

That's triple the entire Canadian population.

World Cup Finals and Euro Finals still triumph when it comes to total worldwide viewership.

But when it comes to north american major sports it's not even close.
