A certain hot take machine has been eerily quiet about that subject on Twitter.

Man there's going to be a lot of Daniels in the top 10 now.

I didn't see his CB2 being his CB2. I thought maybe CB5ish. Man that lad is skyrocketing.

@JojoTheWhale 32 is perfect.


The 3 OTs I'm zoomed in on for the Eagles right now are of course him, Tyler Guyton from Oklahoma, and I'm wondering if they'd like Jack Nelson from Wisconsin on Day 3. I don't think someone like Mims is going to fall to them, I don't know whether Fuaga can stay outside, and I don't know that some of these other Tackles move well enough for them.

Kingsley, Guyton and Paul are the guys right now for me. I don't like Morgan but maybe I'm being overly critical in the two Arizona games I caught.
Ajani Cornelius is a Day 3 name I'm intrigued with but idk if he's gonna declare.

Paul is the main guy I don't get. He's an excellent pass blocker who looks athletic in confined spaces. Of course so far I'm going off of broadcast angles and only 2 games, but I don't think he moves well laterally at all.

This is both a positive and a negative, but he reminds me of a current Eagle -- Le'Raven Clark.

I think I'm going to see how he does in Mobile and then determine if I want to spend any time on him.

Sounds like Leonard left without a contract. Will make his decision over the weekend.
Once he left Dallas w/o a deal, I figured he would do the same with us. He's going to want to decide who he'll have a better chance to win with.

And we all know that, even if it's not us, it's certainly not Dallas. That team is asscheeks. They are capable of good regular seasons, but they won't go far in the playoffs.

this is why i like eye test...i hate the eagles but cmon..best record and all that..sure they lucked into some but all teams do that..

I don't know what goes into this system, but it strikes me as being relatively Pythagorean (or whatever), where raw numbers are jostled about with as much textual relevance to other teams as they can muster, possibly utilizing quasi-arbitrary scoring values (i.e. Avg Yds/Attempt - Team A has 8.71, team B has 8.68; therefore Team A receives a 100 basis point added value score above Team B if ranking is done at the integer level) to make composite rank order evaluations. Point differential, to me, is prone to gross misinterpretation. You can theoretically have a team with one win having a positive point differential and likewise have a one-loss team have a negative based primarily on a game or two. I appreciate the effort, but it is a fundamentally flawed enterprise.

Your mileage may vary.

TL / DR: I'm still drafting McCaffrey over Boston Scott

Anyone in the mood for a good laugh?



FPI continues to show itself as a complete joke

Last year all the media was like: "Who did the eagles actually beat? They win, but they win vs bottom dweller. They have the easiest shedule in the whole league. They will fail when they play vs real competition."

This year: "The Cowboys win all this games and they have the best point difference in the wins they got. DAK has such good Numbers he should be MVP." Now they only won vs loosing teams and lost vs winning teams.

Nevertheless the nation thinks the Cowboys are the 2nd favourites to win the Division and the Super Bowl??!!

The only show i can take serious is Speak for Yourself. And that is with having in mind, that Shady is sure biased pro eagles. But Joy Taylor is in my eyes a very good mind and fair to any site. I agree with her 90% of the time she say something.

National Media is a shitshow. Its nothing new, but iam shocked nevertheless

National media is absolutely in the bed with the Cowboys. Its why guys like Skip Bayless, Marcus Spears, Michele Beadle, etc keep getting airtime. Hell, Skip brought in Michael Irving to double down on the Cowboys fawning and the entire show really just boils down to how does what happen in the football world relate to Dallas every week.
