Yeah, I find it interesting how tough it is and how many blown drafts teams have (Cincinnati).
Oh really, yet they've still played for 3 Lombardi Trophies - talk to Browns/Lions fans.Those two were the scurge before the 1960's now nary a blip

I lived in Cincy and idly watched them draft Qb bust after bust, it was a bit amusing to me, some of them were obvious.  They seem to have done better of late.

Shame we're not getting wiser

Yup, he said Rice cleaned his clock, and he thought he'd been hit by some OL down field.  He said Rice was the consumate player, didn't take plays off, played hard.

And Bryan is still a pretty large dude in good shape.
Same here.....as a nobody who never even played in college, I played 7 years of tackle football and the biggest hit I ever took was by a guy who topped out at JV WR in a pickup game.  When you get crack-backed blindly, it puts you on your ass.


He had a big, shit-eating grin and I said "good hit," and put my hand up for him to help me up.

The Falcons and Hawks would probably make that list somewhere.

Falcons at least had some great runs and made it to a couple Super Bowls in last 25-30 years. I remember the one vs the Broncos and of course the one vs the Pats.

Same-same played from grade school thru grade 12.Pick up games were the most vicious.....and fun. I had the boom lowered on me the very same way but it was a clean block. Many of the guys could have played varsity ball but weren't kissing the coaches hiney to do so. Back in the 70s/80s we had guys show up in baseball cleates,golf shoes and track spikes (all metal then) - Good Times

don't think this is much of a surprise, but Dax Hill posts the best overall athleticism score of any safety prospect from NFL's NextGen Stats powered by Amazon - with a 96. It's like that Nike SPARQ type deal recruits get rated off- some kind of grading system/formula that looks at all the measurable testing time and creates a score.

Dax Hill checks in at 6' and 1/4", 192 pounds and runs an official 4.38 in the 40, 4.06 short shuttle, and 6.57 second three-cone drill. His 40 time was the fastest of any safety prospect and his short shuttle and three-cone times were also the best at safety. 

Some updated mocks are putting him in the 1st round now.

You always have good LBs.  Guessing- a good combo of recruiting and development/coaching?

Russell Wilson traded to the Broncos. Wow. Seahawks will get QB Drew Lock, TE Noah Fant, DL Shelby Harris, two 1st rd picks, two 2nd rd picks, and a 5th rd pick for Russell Wilson and a 4th rd pick. Yeah so Drew Luck sucks, Fant is decent but not exactly a Gronk in his prime or Kelcee type TE, and I've never even heard of Shelby Harris. 

Broncos about to get good, really fast. Seems like QB was the one thing they were really missing.
