Jameis has the physical skills to be a star, but he still needs help with his decision making both on and off the field.

Do they serve crab legs in Tennessee? If so, this could be a bad move!

Mettenberger didn't look too bad. I don't know if they go QB. (Unless Mariota is there when they pick)

I hope he's there when we pick and we have the good sense to take him. But knowing Idziot.....

The key words from that article that you did not bold were "at the moment."

Strength of schedule changes.

That's because they're assuming just because Tampa has it right now that they'll keep it.

They're not taking into consideration SoS as much as they should. I've seen "experts" make tons of mistakes before.

Gruden, last night, said a team could win the NFC South and get a top 12 draft pick. Obviously that is not true, and he does not understand how the draft seeding works for playoff teams.

If we take Winston I might have to take a break from being a fan.

I think he is going to be Geno/VY bad. Can't fix stupid. And he's stupid. Dumb as a rock. He'll never even win a playoff game in the NFL.

As of right now, I don't want a QB with our pick. I want the #1 pick simply for value and hoping that some team will be as dumb as the Redskins. Right now my top 4 for us are Cooper, Gregory, Rey, and Williams.

Mett should be given a medal for performing as well as he did behind this OL.

Brady was awful in that MNF game against the Chiefs because of horrific OL play. That's what ours looks like every game.

When he said that, I had to back it up and hear it again. I didn't think he would make a mistake like that. Gruden's been around a long time, he should know better than that.

He's said it 2 weeks in a row now, you'd think someone at ESPN would have corrected him by now

This is the last guy that corrected Gruden

He's the most overrated NFL analyst on TV. I've long thought Gruden is only raking in the millions a year because of his past coaching fame. Go back and watch his performance at the 2014 NFL Draft to see a real clownshow. He probably said "Johnny Football" or "Manziel" 500 times that night.

Welll there are those who believe Manziel is the next Tony Romo but I am not one of those people.

Believe or once believed? I think after Sunday there aren't many left.

Believe, also if people in Dallas are to be believed what you saw from Manziel on Sunday is not that different from how Romo himself once was when he entered the NFL. One big difference I would point out between the two is Romo is actually exceptionally bright and Johnny Suckball is an idiot.

I've had the luckiest season of my life in fantasy in regards to injury. I haven't had a QB, RB, or receiver miss any time all season due to injury, and I traded Jimmy Graham for Eddie Lacy hours before it came out that Graham had an injury that led to Graham having a couple consecutive terrible games. Now I'm in the finals and have DeMarco Murray so an injury has hit me at the most inopportune time.

You must love the fact that ESPN just extended him through 2021 then.

I like Gruden but I'm almost with Chad. He's over-hyped as an analyst. Seems like a nice guy though.


In other news, MSU QB Conner Cook (according to AP and ESPN) is returning to school. Could be the top '16 QB if he has a good season.

[TitansFan4Life]

I just ran through multiple scenarios, and the analysts are wrong... the Bucs could lose out and not get the #1 pick. But they do have the inside shot and will likely get it.

It's not a guarantee like they make it out to be though.

Aside from pulling for other 2-12 teams, we have to pull for the Rams, Panthers, Vikings, and Redskins to each win at least one more game.

And teams we need to lose: Chiefs, Colts, Eagles, Giants, and Jets

Would be a lot easier if Tampa could just win a game. Best case would be that NO clinches that garbage division next week and rests their starters in Tampa week 17.
