  1. Maybe that was more Hockenson, and circumstances than the position.
  2. They don't need another mediocre tight end. If they choose to upgrade, that's nothing to bitch about.
  3. I know lions fans are techy about drafting a tight end high, but it is one of their weaker position groups, they run a lot of two te sets, and a top te would open up a lot of other possibilities for their offense.
  4. Probably none of the corners have value at 6.
  5. Purportedly the intent is to reduce the odds of long extra innings games, burning out pitching staffs.
  6. The benefit is that you have two of them, of course you want a te who can also occasionally handle a de inline.
  7. Every player is a composite. Whether he creates runs or prevents them, both have value. Get players who offer the most overall value, you don't focus on just one obvious factor.
  8. The market will decide his worth, not his agent.
  9. Wiseman, in no way, shape or form, fills a need, no one needs five centers. However, just based on talent, on ceiling, you'd take Wiseman over Bey all day long. What the hell is Weaver doing? Maybe just upgrading young talent wherever he can to be sorted out later. Maybe just hedging his bets that one of them fulfills his potential and becomes a star.
  10. Petzold seems especially prolific.
  11. What are you complaining about? That's their job. Most fans want to read about players, especially ones that aren't too familiar. What do you want them to write about?
  12. Based on what? Hurts was 21 and still on a developmental curve when he came into the league. If Hooker had that type of ceiling he would have realized it by now and not be knocking around in college for six years.
  13. True, I'm speaking of the Callis, Mayo, Cooper and Callazo'sof the industry.
  14. I don't dispute that the Tigers system is ranked very low, but they were ranked top five only a year or two ago (not by Law), so things can change quickly. Also, Law is one of the least reputable and knowledgeable of the prospect analysts.
  15. You should be re-signed to that.
  16. I believe the injury was more of a factor in Okudah's play than anything.
  17. Browns value is as a versatile back up, you don't really want him as your starting right guard.
  18. It's not an exciting trend, but there's not enough data to be determinative.
  19. His luck will stabilize over time.
  20. Torkelson suffered poor luck compared to Greene, and any discussion of production stats like WAR and OPS+ that don't acknowledge that are disingenuous. BABIP will stabilize over time. Both will have career BABIP a bit over .300, Greenes should be higher, but not that much.
  21. Whereas Torkelson improved his k-rate from 25% to 21%, and hard hit rate from 29% to 37% from the first half to the second. He also suffered a bit babip wise.
  22. I'm not sure what he's saying, but I'm all for letting kids fully develop before bringing them up. The bigs will shred you if you are not ready.
