Dark Acre

To be fair, it took Flutie awhile to grow into it. . . . (Those Flutie Flakes probably stunted his growth -- 28g carbs,13g sugar, 1g protein. Want to get big and strong? Grass-fed beef, free-range eggs, extra sharp cheddar, mushrooms, onions, garlic, and wash it down with a cold Miller Lite.)

Depends on the hangover.... That's a great video of Newton. Unless he's got a secret dark side (and with a cute baby like that, I doubt it), there's no way he's going to slack off, not do his job, party hearty, etc. Didn't having a kid turn things around for Sean Taylor? (RIP)

Russ Grimm is even better. "It's comin' at you, Randy"

Isn't that pass interference? I've got no problem with a TE or WR whose separation ability is so bad they routinely draw PI penalties.

Rene' Bugner must be European. They use "," in numbers where we use "." -- 3,72 vs 3.72.

So Johnny "Fig" Newton is the steal of the draft?

And when he gets cut, the Chig has gone away.

6'5/313, runs a 4.99-40, basketball background, and explosive? Tight end! Set a pick, catch the rock, and charging's legal in football. Perfect safety valve for Daniels.

And paid $100,000,000. That's a lot of zeroes not to pair it with Rome Odunze or any other force multiplier. Literally *any* position other than QB would've improved the team they're spending a tenth of a BILLION $ on for one guy.

Mark May, Russ Grimm, Joe Jacoby, Dexter Manley, Charlie Brown, Clint Didier, Darryl Grant, Mel Kaufman, Otis Wonsley.

Dude's composite speed is weird. Very slow acceleration. Great footwork.

Yeah, I think the last guy who would ever troll/clown anybody is Darrell Green. They called Walter Payton "Sweetness" but DG28 just personifies that word. Check out the 1987 America's Game on the Skins; DG is one of the participants. "They didn't know me from a chicken." Dude is as humble as he was great.

5'9/182? Why not just bring Darrell back outta retirement? He's already at the draft. That would've been hilarious. "With the 50th pick in the 2024 draft, the Commanders select, ME?" He couldn't wear his old #28 though, it's been retired.

#78 moving up 25 spots to 53 is great!

3-man IDL?

What're the products or services being pitched in the commercials?

"He's only a lad" (Had to make an Oingo Boingo reference)

Do you prefer mustard or a sugary, fruit-flavored drink? Some people would say, don't drink the Kool-Aid. Some people ask, do you have any Grey Poupon?

I hope Spencer Rattler pans out for whoever takes him. "Spencer, Rattler, rides in with the storm...." (Yeah, probably too obscure a reference here.)

Not 1 and 2, but in 1981 we drafted May in rd 1 and Grimm in rd 3. (Also picked up another OG later on named Darryl Grant. He was such a bad fit for the OL that his biggest career highlight was high-stepping into the end zone as a DT with a pick-6 against Dallas to seal the victory in 1982 NFC Championship. :->>>) Kids (and that's too many of you here), RIGHT NOW, pull that play up on Youtube and marvel at what us Gen-Xers grew up with as Skins fans. Note: that same 1981 draft we drafted the guy who tipped the ball that Grant picked off -- the indomitable (and at the time illiterate) Dexter Manley.

Wins

SF probably figured he's not going to last to 2-31. So if he's the guy you want, gotta get him at 1-31.

I told him *sativa* but he insisted on her sister indica.

Andrew Luck has entered the chat. Teams that are bad enough to draft a QB in rd. 1 should usually spend a bunch more picks on offensive fat boys unless they already have a good line. IIRC, we did give RGIII a pretty good OL.

In 2000, the Jets drafted Shaun Ellis and John Abraham back to back (12, 13). Those were not misses. Chad Pennington and TE Anthony Becht, yeah. Right after Pennington went Shaun Alexander. Ouch. Keith Bullock went 3 picks after Becht. That was the year we took Arrington and Samuels. Two teams had 6 of the 31 picks (didn't somebody forfeit?).
