Leaked report on Johnny Jesus

[BigEd76]

His press conference today included Gilbert, and for every 10 questions he got, Gilbert got one.  Among the questions: "Are you going to try to convince LeBron to come back to Cleveland?" and "You were photographed holding a champagne bottle!?!?!"

stevie johnson to the niners for a 2015 conditional pick (3-4 rounder)....most likely a 4th to replenish the pick they gave to move up to get sammy watkins yesetrday

[QB Eagles]

they should hire that dood then....they somehow got manzell in the 20's and a first rounder next year (and that doesn't even include the corner they apparently coveted)....they pretty much put on a clinic last night

I tried to trace back everything they gave up and got in all of the 2013-2014 trades that led up to them getting Manziel but gave up about halfway through... there are a lot of moving parts, but the big tradeoff was essentially getting Johnny Football for Trent Richardson. That sounds like a winning gamble even if Manziel is a bust.

yeah im not a manzell guy but just from their perspective they got the qb that they could have justifiably taken at four and been happy....instead they got him at 22 still made another top ten pick and have an extra 1 and 4 next year

you cant work the draft better than that

Which QB does Houston take?  I've seen Carr/Garoppolo/McCarron.  You'd think Carr would be the best value here, but the skeletons in that closet with that last name may be too big for Houston to dig in with.

Josh Gordon facing a year long suspension for weed?

[ice grillin you]

i know its supposedly a foregone conclusion that they go qb but i dont think then end up doing it....to me it would kind of be like the eagles taking smith where they did....putting to much emphasis on need....the best qb's in this draft arguably shouldnt have gone first round...i don't know why youd force one of the second tier guys at 33....i would take one of the OT's

[ice grillin you]

ahhhhhh.....dilfer mcshay and mel are so awesome...especially compared to boom ray ray and gruden

[PhillyPhreak54]

Gordon is a dumbfarg

[QB Eagles]

Josh Gordon facing a year long suspension for weed?

Unbelievable. I think that the NFL's testing program is as ill-conceived as every other facet of the evil drug war (and the fact that they test for a harmless recreational drug is absurd), but I cannot comprehend Gordon's stupidity. The guy might legitimately be the best wide receiver in the world right now, and the world contains Calvin Johnson. And he's literally pissing it all away so he can inhale a burned plant. Imagine all the hours he's put into becoming the player he is. farging wasted. I'm actually angry about this, because he's so fun to watch.

Browns fans can't even have one single full day to feel good about their team.

[PhillyPhreak54]

Haha I didn't even think of the Browns fans. I imagine sports radio there right now is a farging suicide hotline

[ice grillin you]

the worst part about it is that it guarantees they take a wr now....they may have anyway but this seals them taking one out of the pool that needs to work its way down to the eagles

[PhillyPhreak54]

The punishment is too severe but the nflpa and the players accepted it in collective bargaining.

My problem is that even as draconian as it may be he knows it and still smokes out

Also Ray rice will be punished less for whipping his old lady's ass.

[ice grillin you]

a cool pool would be to try and guess when/who the first player rated lower than marcus smith is taken
