Hongbit Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 29 minutes ago, KL2 said: It is useless, sorry. There is no weight for a first round pick versus a late round pick. There is no consieration for whether a player makes a team. The sample size is too small and having a pro-bowler could easily impact the decision. Let's look at some possible scnerios. The Cardinals have pick 210, they take a QB knowing they would like to find a third QB for the roster for camp to take the load of Murray. They take one, he doens't make the team but is put on the practice squad for six games and is cut. Then who cares? The Eagles landed two good receivers in teh draft 6 years ago and now are paying them each $15 million. They have decided to dedicate money elsewhere so for backups they just keep using low round picks on WR and churring through them in two years and letting them go. There are too many items that can throw this report into wacko land and dramtically increase or decrease percentages. That is what makes it usueless. It lacks any context or weight as we know first round picks are more targeted selections than a seven round guy when many teams might take an 8th or 9th guy and he has no real shot to make a roster. And yeah I knew WR was where they invested the most when you break it down like this. Most teams will carry what 6 guys and maybe a kick returner that is usually a WR. That is what like 14 percent of the entire roster so it makes sense they spent draft capital there. It would probably be Oline, but the survey broke down T, G, C while not breaking down inside or outside WR. So so wrong. The entire thing is weighted based on which round the picks are in. The Cardinals spent 26% of draft capital the last 5 years on QB. This doesn’t mean they drafted 8 QBs. They drafted 2 but both were in the top 10 overall. What the hell does it matter whether a player made the team or was a pro bowler. It’s only measuring what position teams have emphasized on draft day.

The fun one yesterday was Jakobi Meyers signing for 5 years $87m or something like that and people running with it. He signed for 3 years $33m today which makes a lot more sense.

I hope after Rodgers assembles all of these pieces in New York, completely changing the makeup of both franchises, he retires. Leaves New York with Jacoby Brissett or Gardner Minshew.

RandyMarsh Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 (edited) I wish I could find the parody somebody made a few years ago about Rodgers and his demands. It was based off the scene in The Office where Michael Scott tries sellng his paper company back to Dunder Mifflin. It was great and 3-4 years later its even more relevant.

I always forget Aaron Rodgers did actually make a cameo in The Office. Thankfully that was when the show was terrible and I have no desire to re-watch it.

Yeah he did but the thing I'm talking about wasn't actually him, just somebody that photoshopped him over Michael Scotts face along with various other Packers players and Management with the other characters involved in that scene. From what remember it was great, they had Randall Cobb play the role of Ryan since on the show Michael demanded that Ryan be hired back. Unfortunately on YT when I search "Aarom Rodgers The Office" or anything like that all I get is the cameo you're referencing.

Crazy to think that it is just as if not more relevant than it was when the person created it, I'm pretty sure it was pre pandemic so it's been a little while now. Watch 5 years from now I'll be bringing this up again after Aaron holds a team hostage again. Edited March 14, 2023 by RandyMarsh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said the first days teams can only talk to the players agent(who is certified by the NFLPA) and since Lamar is representing himself teams can't talk to him.

MichiganCardinal Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 For a QB coming off a year where he threw a career low in yards, career low in QBR, 2nd lowest in his career in TDs, 2nd highest in interceptions, and who would rather be hosting Jeopardy. Let me know how that works out for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
