For O/U, a draft position (Say 5.5) means 1-5 is Under and 6+ is Over

Travon Walker 1st Overall +150
Aidan Hutchinson O1.5 +180
Sauce Gardner U5.5 -125
Kyle Hamilton U11.5 -115
Kenny Pickett 1st QB +150

Spicy Bet:
Houston Drafts DB with their 1st pick +450 (Think Sauce/Kyle at 3 is a real possibility).


for context on why i think TW > AH

Speed Score, is based off your 40 time + weight, and it's a pretty good indicator of finding underrated talent (esp in fantasy and esp at hb but i digress)

**A speed score of 99.0 currently rates 51st percentile among NFL edge players. **

EDGE
1. Amare Barno, Virginia Tech – 136.2
2. Sam Williams, Mississippi – 131.9
3. Travon Walker, Georgia – 131.5
4. Boye Mafe, Minnesota – 124.0
5. Nik Bonitto, Oklahoma – 116.8
6. David Ojabo, Michigan – 116.7
7. Kayvon Thibodeaux, Oregon – 115.5
8. Jermaine Johnson II, Florida State – 115.5
9. Isaiah Thomas, Oklahoma – 109.0
10. Jeffrey Gunter, Coastal Carolina – 105.7
11. Joshua Paschal, Kentucky – 103.5
12. Aidan Hutchinson, Michigan – 103.0
13. Dominique Robinson, Miami (Ohio) – 101.9
14. Myron Tagovailoa-Amosa, Notre Dame – 100.9
15. Logan Hall, Houston – 99.8


Aidan is barely above 99.0 which is like.. average.. Travon is a junior with a 131 lol. Fucked up. But it's also Jacksonville so who knows.


For Kenny Pickett #1

Think that the Malik stuff is all hype and shit to make people interested in the draft combine. Reality is that QBs who have poor completion percentages dont translate to the pros, except 1 recent QB (we'll get to that) and WIllis has a 60% comp at Liberty. Not impressive at all. And the 1 person that did it (Josh Allen) is the comp that people keep placing on Malik but I dont see it. I see teams going Pickett (Carolina or Pittsburgh) and ya.

Was thinking the same.

Probably a bit better than Brees, but not as animated as Romo.

Seems too bland and where everything has to be perfect to be good as an analyst IMO.

Different sport, but Richard Jefferson is the absolute best whether it's on ESPN during the day or providing commentary for games.

Was about to post about Redick as well.

Redick is certaly better with technical hoops discussion but RJ just makes it more fun.

Even last place in our division we will be competitive but blah
