OT: NFL Draft
Well, Matthew Stafford has reportedly signed with the Lions for the largest guaranteed contract in NFL history. I have no problem with athletes making obscene amounts of money and I think Stafford will be a pretty good QB in the league. However, it just seems really weird to have a guy who hasn't played a down of pro football making more money than veteran guys who have been in Pro Bowls and won Super Bowls. Listening to the commish on the radio yesterday though leads me to think that might be changing soon.

Matthew Stafford is not the guy to give that contract to.

I think
We’ve gotten to the point that the free market can no longer be counted on to depress the salaries.
I don’t think a strict cap would be beneficial either, though, because it would eliminate any wiggle room teams at the top had to save some money.
The slotting system of baseball seems to be good, but maybe NFL could add a multiplier cap hit for every million over slot a team goes.

I kind of like the nba's system
of set dollar amount contracts per draft slot.

When I saw that note on ESPN on my phone, I wondered the same thing.
Is it a salary difference for the two players, or an ability difference?

Stafford
I’m actually kind of happy that he’s going first overall, because when I was playing football in high school he was just starting at Highland Park, and we went to their place and proceeded to get our asses handed to use by him.
So now later in life I can tell my kids that Stafford, who went number one, kick my team’s ass when I played against him in high school…….

I need to take back what I said about the Nuggets.
I have been following them closely in this Hornets series and it hasn’t even been competitive.
Nobody other than Chris Paul looks like they belong on the floor right now. The way that Dahntay Jones is mushing him, I don’t see Paul getting off at any rate.
The Nuggets will be a tough out in this playoffs. A team that stacked that is clicking on all cylinders — it’s just too many weapons.

Not just as a rookie, but as someone who doesn’t have a high completion percentage in college which does not translate to the pros. People fall in love with the big arm, but the window is smaller in the NFL. Give me someone who is more accurate.

Predictions on draft picks is like any gamble
Anyone predict Roth in Pitts to be as good as he has been. If the team around them is developed the skys the limit on these guys. I still see the a few of these skilled Wr and Rb be the best in the draft. Crabtree seems like an Andre Johnson clone, that will need help before becoming a superstar.

I didnt say that Austin and Crayton arent good pickups
But to risk 1st and 3rd when the lions dont want you, and the league was down on a player. Rather, them invest in a WR in this years draft, where it is loaded with Wr, even a guy like Harvin would be the speed element missing from this team other than Felix Jones. The last time they developed a wr in first 4 rds was 2002 and Antonio Bryant.
by gamerabcd on Apr 25, 2009 11:34 AM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
Harvin isn't even on the Cowboys draft board

I only said Harvin since he is dropping
But no his off the field actions might sway the Cowboys from even thinking about him. But his speed is top of the line. His ability to catch and run with the ball was off the charts in Fl. But, this team needs a speed receiver, thats why I never liked the RW trade, we were getting a possession receiver when we have Clayton and Hurd doing same thing.

No it's not.
I don’t get all this bitching about Boldin (BTW, red shoe ranger already bitched about this in this thread, so I’m not sure why you started a new rant).
Values are different at different times. Trading for a team’s nominal #1 in the middle of the season is just different than trading for a #2 on the edge of the draft. It’s no different than baseball, where a team can get squeezed at the trade deadline.
In any case, I wish Jerry had followed through on his desire in ’07 in to move up to the very top of the draft to draft Calvin Johnson, who is unbelievably amazing.

Chances are, if they draft a defensive player with their 1st pick, he won’t impact their W-L record in the end.

As of now no
But I knew that he was going to get a lot of offers for college, and there were a lot of scouts there, yet he just blew off all of them and barely participated at all during the camp. Friend of mine was in the QB group that Stafford was in, and when other QBs were throwing, he heard him saying things like “Oh, that kid would be lucky just to get an offer….”

So I work at Mount Sinai hospital in New York,
making the website.
Yesterday a couple friends who write the internal newsletter said, hey, come see the big NFL prospects hang out in the sick kids’ ward at the hospital, we’re going to photograph it.
So we went over, and I hung out with about a dozen NFL first-rounders.
They did a closed-circuit call-in TV show for patients who couldn’t leave their rooms. Jason Smith came off as the best spoken. So long as he stays healthy he presents as impossible-to-fail NFL talent.
Later on Stafford and another one (I too am unversed on this year’s draft) played Guitar Hero and then the winner took on a little kid with a stent in who destroyed him.
It was cool, the players almost outnumbered the lay people in the room, just a small group of folks with this mob of young athletic celebrities talking to a couple kids. Right before it ended I talked to a guy from FOX Sports, and asked if Detroit was taking Stafford. He was flipping through his blackberry and said, “well, I’ll probably know before he does.” I think the guy was still playing Guitar Hero at that point.

I'll be interested to see what the Cowboys do.
Some people would say, “Oh, they don’t have a first rounder, it doesn’t matter.” But think about how savvy the Cowboys have been with later-round picks in their history.
Marion Barber was a fourth-rounder. Jay Ratliff was a seventh-rounder. Hell, I know it’s ancient history, but the Cowboys drafted Mel Renfro, Bullet Bob Hayes and Roger Staubach in one draft.
Should be interesting.
