Scouting the League

Value positions and HWS. Texans and Raiders in opposite directions. Upset the Dawgs?and Forget the NCAA

OT and Edge rushers as value positions at all times in the NFL, why and how to track it.  The Texans in the right direction, time to go all in?  The Raiders in the wrong direction, why I am selling on Pierce as the answer.  Is there going to be an upset in Athens?  Lane Kiffin has his chance to shine.  And why the Big10, Michigan and Ohio State need to lead the way out of the NCAA and the joke that they are.

Tanking is for Dummies, the Michigan OL, Silencing the Noise and Way too many QB’s

Tanking is for Dummies - #NFL teams do not and should not tank.  Why I mute games when I am watching and how to keep the right mindset scouting amid all the noise.  Is the #Michigan OL really that good, 7 draft picks?  What I really think about them.  Insight into the Scouting process that you will not hear anywhere else.  #NFLDraft

Young and Stroud - Convincing yourself and 2024 talented young arms

Scouts at all levels convince themselves that "This Guy" has what it takes, despite what all the signs say.  Why? And how does this manifest itself through an entire department.  CJ Stroud and Bryce Young are examples, and it will show up with your arms like Spencer Rattler, Michael Penix and DJ Uiagalelai in 2024.  Plus, is toughness, tacking and playing hard really that important to succeed in the NFL?  #NFLDraft #SouthCarolina #OregonState #Washington #Texans #Panthers
