    That would be my dream scenario also. But I'm really anxious to see what James Connor dies after seeing what happened to Chubb. If he declares I would love to draft him along with goff. He's just hard to predict I would take him in the 2nd but if we can get him in the 3rd I would be ecstatic. But if he does stay in school goff and Henry would be amazing.

    Goff/Henry or
    Goff /?/Conner

    Goff isn't of color. Therefore, he's not considered in his world.


    Apparently that's his shtick.

    Do you mean actual NFL scouts or media "experts" like Kiper, McShay, King etc...? If the latter, I'm sure a lot of has to do with conjuring up interest for the draft. Drafts with QB debates make for much better t.v. and draw a lot more interest IMO.

    2015 - Winston vs. Mariota
    2014 - Bortles vs. Manziel vs. Bridgewater vs. Carr
    2012 - Luck vs. RG3
    2011 - Newton vs. Locker vs. Gabbert

    Wasn't trying to be insensitive. Facetious, yes. Insensitive, I hope not.

    It's a common phrase. And I didn't think you were trying to be insensitive. I just hate that phrase. I would get into why but not the right place.

    I don't agree about the Goff hype either, but he'll be drafted. Trevone Boykin will be lucky to be picked at all.

    Lol, you lose pretty much all credibility by posting something like this.

    Im not sure if you're being serious or not, though.

    Goff has been average when he's getting his OLine blown up within a millisecond of hiking the ball. That means he's played excellent under the conditions he's faced.

    Im sure he'd love to face the likes of Stephen F Austin and Iowa St. on a regular basis, but that's why guys like Boykin look "good".

    I want to tell you a story, Skyrim and Harden2Capela. I'm going to ask you both (?) to close your eyes while I tell you the story. I want you to listen to me. I want you to listen to yourselves. Go ahead. Close your eyes, please. This is a story about a college quarterback walking off the practice field one sunny afternoon. I want you to picture that quarterback. Suddenly a golf cart races up. Two men jump off and grab him. They drag him onto a nearby field and they begin running pass rush drills on him. They see a blocking sled. Now they climb on the blocking sled. First one, then the other, pushing it, pressuring everything innocent and pure with a vicious thrust in a fog of grunts and sweat. And when they're done, after they've killed his pocket presence, murdered any chance for him to check down, to have any life beyond that tackle box, they decide to start holding up brooms. They start doing it in every passing lane imaginable. They throw them so high that the poor guy has to practically jump to throw over the line.

    Can you see that quarterback? His beaten, broken body soaked in their sweat, soaked in his own blood, left to ponder the playbook. Can you see him? I want you to picture that quarterback.

    Now imagine he's white.
