If I could not hear about Colin Kaepernick for one day, I'd be so happy. I am glad the giants passed at least would've been a putrid choice. I'm no exactly happy about the Geno Smith pick either (and I don't know anything outside of the little draft day blurb from the new guy they drafted this year), but being Eli Manning's backup is basically the bench-warmingest position in all of sports at the moment. There's no way Kaep woulda taken that spot (not to mention the NY media isn't exactly the kindest to players in the spotlight).

Lets say they have a horrible season, any chance they make a run at that up and coming USC quarterback?. It would have to be a really monumentally bad season for them to bench Eli. Even then, they'd probably throw Smith the reigns first.

He's going to the other New York team. I don't know maybe the Rams give up on Goff and go for him perhaps? There is no way the Jets don't get the #1 pick.

I knew that C.T.E. was a major issue, but I guess living in Ohio especially so close to Ohio State, I never felt guilty about watching football. After reading this article from the New York Times though, in good conscious, I can no longer watch it. These last few years I've seen first hand what something like dementia can do to a loved one, and I wouldn't wish that on anyone. 110 N.F.L. Brains

I was thinking about that too; although, I no longer watch WWE and never watched MMA or boxing. Anyway, I guess some could say it's like smoking since people now know the risk going into it, but seeing my mom suffering from Alzheimer's, I just wouldn't feel right about watching football right now even though the players are aware of the risks of what probably will end up happening to them. I know that it will still thrive, so I don't expect people to stop watching it. It's just a personal choice for me because it just hits too close to home right now.

If anyone possibly opens OJ'S very brain, wonder what they will find possibly. Evidence of CTE that was planted by the LAPD!

Did a few mock drafts for fantasy picking 9th, 7th, 8th and 3rd out of 12.     Might do a few more later. My draft isn't until 2 weeks from now. I did more mocks than these but had to throw them out because I'd either forget to switch the settings to make it match the style of the league I'm in or forgot to draft a backup QB. In most of them I ended up drafting Kirk Cousins too which I don't really have a problem with. Ideally I'd like to get one of the three QBs that I consider "top tier" but I got Kirk Cousins as my 5th ranked QB so w/e. I really ate shit with my QBs on that last mock though

So Elliot is out for six game.
And I swear every comment section still manages to find a way to talk about Kaepernick.

"How come no one is up in arms about Lynch sitting for the national anthem?"
...because he's actually good and no one really gives a shit.

Anquan Boldin just retired.
He's an easy Hall of Famer (not a first balloter, but he'll be there eventually).

QB: Kirk Cousins/Tyrod Taylor RB: Devonta Freeman/Jay Ajayi/LeGarrette Blount WR: Brandin Cooks/Keenan Allen/Alshon Jeffrey/Jamison Crowder/Pierre Garcon DST: Patriots/Panthers K: Justin Tucker
Now, if you excuse me I'm gonna go rosterbate all week.

Matthew Stafford is now the highest paid player in NFL history until Kirk Cousins gets his contract this offseason.

I've never witnessed a quicker fall...
Still, $16M to hold the point after? Not too shabby.
