Damn that bad

Whoever signs Decker will be paying ALOT for an average reciever IMO... His numbers are inflated past few years with Manning throwing to him

Didn't he score 9 TDs with Tebow as his QB. I would love to sign him and draft Evans if we could. That would easily improve our offense.

I mean, I watched the NFL playoffs this year as a casual observer (I don't have a favorite NFL team - I just like football), and the Broncos in the Superbowl looked like the most disorganized, flat-footed team we've seen in the last month. The orange jerseys looked like a Chinese fire drill every time the ball was snapped. The whole team was in a panic.

Even if Denver were stopped and had to punt on their first possession, I think the whole team would've looked more composed and we would've seen a more even game.

The Seahawks played like they were in the Superbowl. The Broncos played like they all pulled an all-nighter and just had a nap before the game.

If your raiders sign him..how much are you willing to pay? With 60 mill in cap space i think..they are going to spend big..

I think they go after Moreno since he won't be back and Mcfadden is gone

He may be correct but he seems eager to show off his lack of class.

Further proof that giving out grades immediately after the draft is pointless, here are some of the grades the Seahawks received following the 2012 draft, which included starters Russell Wilson, Bobby Wagner, Bruce Irvin, J.R. Sweezey, and backup running back Robert Turbin:
Mel Kiper: C-
Sports Illustrated: C
NFL Network: C
CBS Sports: C
Sporting News: D

That's called either pulling a "Max McGee"or a "Eugine Robinson" depending on what each man did.

Pulling a "Barret Robbins" is another story altogether and would only apply if a Bronco ended up in another country.

However this new article where he says 49-ers are better than Broncos ... may be accurate surely but the fella has no class at all and really shouldn't be allowed to do anything but play ... and not comment on such things...

Wow another baseless comment. The man is intelligent and smart and graduated with a 3.9 from Stanford. Did you do that? Does that make you a thug that you didnt? You judging a man because of what he does between the lines in a violent sport. Really? How many off the field troubles has he been in? People love to hate the great ones and I am sorry, all the great ones are cocky. Its an edge they have that makes them great. How many of those hockey players that didnt even get to play a game because of fighting are thugs? I would assume, all of them by your reason.

The 49ers would have probably smoked the broncos as well. Peyton manning is the most overrated qb ever. He has never really won the big game. He couldnt beat Florida when he was at Tennessee and when they did beat Florida, he was gone and they won the national championship. The year he won in indy he had a subpar game. That was the year they had a really good defense and running game. I think Bob sanders won the Defensive Player of the Year award that year. Peyton has those stats because he plays in a league built for offense. Like one person stated earlier, no quarterback from this era should be the greatest of all time because they play with a set of rules built for them to put up crazy numbers.

You're likely going to have to trade up if you want Evans. I think Marquise Lee is a more likely pick at your current position.

I don't get how this is classless. In fact I tend to agree with Sherman on this.

In defense, a lot of that is based off team needs, and they had just signed a QB to a big contract right before taking Wilson.

And they smoked the 49ers earlier this year. 1 game doesn't tell you much about the teams.

[ChadFL]

This shows just how dominant the NFL is in America. The game was a bloodbath start to finish and it still drew massive ratings.

http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports...erman/5181381/

Sunday's Super Bowl was among the most non-competitive in decades but that didn't stop fans from watching.

The game, broadcast by Fox, got a 47.6 rating. That is off 1% from last year's game on CBS (48.1) that was an all-time high. Fox's number is the fifth best ever.

The ratings were boosted by a 56.7 number in Seattle where fans got to see their team, especially their defense, put on a show.

Broncos fans didn't shy away posting a 51.4 and the host market (New York) posted a 50.5. That was the best New York number since 1987 when the Giants-Broncos game delivered a 58.1.

The show peaked in the 7:30-8 p.m. ET time slot at 49.2 but also scored a 46 from 9:30-10 p.m. when the game had long been decided.

Fox's four-hour pre-game show which paraded everyone from Kevin Costner to the Geico Camel to President Obama got a 12.8 rating which was up 16% from last year's telecast.

And he also spoke highly of Peyton and told guys on Twitter to lay off on Peyton, I bet that's a thug move too right? Get over it.

I dont see them handing out any big contracts, those were the Al Davis days which are long gone, at this poing I'm not sure what there going to do, and that really scares me with all that free cap space

Calling the guy a thug is overboard. I would say the guy has dawg in him. Which is something you want the guys on your football team to have. I'm sure It's another case of the home team loving a guy like this and everyone else hating him.
