Happens a lot now though. Burrow didn’t do it, Daniel’s didn’t do it.

It looks like the teams had doubts about him and it didn't help him.

He's not as good as he says he is but he's better than Slough or Gabriel

Got to wonder what impact the NIL money and exposure is having on some of these players. Sanders reportedly earned 6 million in his time at Colorado, gets crazy coverage because of who his dad is (that impacted his earnings as well). Going to be a circus wherever he lands up.

Burrow was nailed on first pick though and most had Daniels second so there was no point.

From what I’ve read Moore quite liked Saunders but just thought Slough would be a better fit as he’s a bit more athletic and nfl ready (old). Never even heard of Gabriel !

Saunders should never have dropped this low though. Crazy.

Yeah this is the biggest slide I history

If he's still there when we pick at beginning ofround 5 I'd take him as we need a back up and I reckon KOC could make something out of him - unless there's something big that NFL teams know and everyone else doesn't yet.

 

[tisza]

well maybe it's no surprise the Browns took him after all they did blow the QB cap market to pieces when they took on another dubious character - Deshaun Watson!!

 

[tisza]

Considering we only had 5 picks it's been a decent draft - 2 probable starters and a rotational pick for year 1 and a backup QB. Assuming we've a couple of free agency deals for secondary cover. Plus adding Jordan Mason for a 6th rounder should be factored in.

Vikings vs Steelers in Dublin - time to get my guiness taste buds going

 

[Liquid Gold]

Washington are in Madrid but I'll be in Thailand at the time so thats a chance missed.

So many are playing in Europe now it'll probably be a short wait.

I see Trump has said he may block Washington's new stadium plans if they don’t drop Commanders and become the Redskins again!

Feels like that administration is working overtime to desperately try and throw up culture war items to try and distract from Trump's associations with Jeffrey Epstein and his apparent desire for Epstein documents to remain out of the public eye.

I fancy Washington to win the NFC East this year.

I honestly thought you were joking.

Unfortunately not, we should never underestimate the lengths he will go to create divisions, there was also an item on BBC website that Ellen DeGeneres has moved to UK as she is worried that Trump may reverse same sex laws!

Or they could really please him and name them after him - the Orangeskins.

My son has said he fancies going to an NFL & NHL game around Christmas & new year. Does anyone know of any companies that do organised tours for this, maybe including accommodation?

The Washington Bullshiters has a ring to it

Try the local team website for the tickets. I got Jets and Knicks tickets last season pretty easily and Nets tickets were $25-30 for one game

Check out ‘city passes’ for your destination because the New York one could be used Yankees tickets - which I’d have done if it were in season.

It’s probably easier and more affordable to get NBA, NHL, NFL and MLB tickets than Premiership football for a tourist Liverpool/Man U fan.

If you can wait a little into the season- teams that start badly their ticket prices tend to plummet even for the holidays

Never had a problem getting tickets on resale sites over there having said that I’ve not gone over Xmas. Sure if it’s a massive game between big rivals it might be different but shouldn’t have any issues. Have a great time if/when you go

ps only caveat would be around thanksgiving over there
