Just a guy who spends 100 hours or so watching draft prospects every year for no reason
Here's my 2025 board. Not as many prospects as normal, had a tour in the middle of April. Rankings here are a lot of "what I want". Stacking a board vertically is very difficult. OL definitely got weighed heavily here, I think it's a big need. Enjoy! docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d…
Gonna be a long weekend 🙃
Wrapping up our Friday running 🏁
You know your team is going through it when they're like "hey, crazier things have happened, am I right?"
A race where anything is possible 🤔 We're heading to Silverstone for the incredible #BritishGP 🇬🇧
Drawing parallels between my NFL and F1 team. Both have a star that keeps them afloat but terminally flawed ownership will likely keep both from ever being regular contenders
P13 and P15 in Austria 🏁
Can anyone think of an instance where a guy went on multiple visits and signed with the Bengals?
Ezeiruaku is to Shemar as Nolan Smith is the Myles
I know pads aren’t on but Donovan Ezeiruaku looks like the steal of the draft so far. It’s extremely early but his first step quickness is different. Offenses won’t have enough to deal with him and Micah.
The Bengals beat one (1) team last year with a QB who is still starting for that team going into 2025
Starting to believe the Bengals don’t want to win a Super Bowl because they are too frugal to buy the rings
Russini: EDGE Trey Hendrickson received 2 offers from Bengals in 24-hour span that didn't contain guarantees past 1st year he seeks. "I was more than willing to take less in some ways in order to make this work."
I feel like the best way to get a deal done with Katie is to make minor concessions and say "damn, you're so good at negotiations" every time
EXCLUSIVE: Just spoke to Bengals pass rusher Trey Hendrickson, who is currently in Jacksonville, FL. For the last 30 days, he had been at his home in Cincinnati and training. But as training camp approached, he and his wife decided to leave. They received two offers in a…
Bengals owners in press conferences: We aren't cheap. All we want to do is win football games. The media is evil Bengals owners in negotiations:
Also, the nads on this guy to pursue salary cuts for 3 of his players, do nothing with that money, then say they're not being cheap 😂
“We operate under a cap system. We’ve paid-out, the last couple years, more than the cap … That isn’t being cheap.” 🎥 Bengals owner Mike Brown gave his reaction to the notion of the organization not wanting to spend money: “It’s just a form of foolishness … Sometimes what…
The Bengals' front office lives in their own reality. Their words mean nothing unfortunately.
Long-term extension talks between the #Bengals and star Trey Hendrickson broke down over guaranteed money before camp… and Hendrickson has now indicated he left the state. He just posted this on Instagram.
"no way to prevent this" says only team where it happens every year
Mike Brown: "There seems to be somebody (to sign) every year. That's alright. It's how the system works."
Tobin quotes mean nothing to me now. Dude said "I don't want to pay more for the same team" and did exactly that.
Duke Tobin on Trey Hendrickson: He's an important part of our team. He's under contract. We expect all of our guys under contract to be here. He's a guy who has been very valuable. He has earned a raise and extension. We'll see if we can come together on something.
My gut says the Lions' pup list isn't as bad as it looks
Players who were rehabbing physical conditions at the end of the offseason program can report early to training camp. They automatically go on the PUP list. Some of those players are expected to come off the list and be on the field when 49ers practice begins on Wednesday.
This gets lost a lot in the discussion about losing Ragnow and the coordinators. The Lions had a better defense on IR than the Bengals were starting last year. The reinforcements they're getting on defense are insane
Imagine losing Aidan Hutchinson and Alim McNeill and still being 4th in pressure rate in the last month of the season just through the power of friendship
I don't mean to pick on malt here, but just got me thinking: This off-season showed me that most fans can talk themselves into any off-season. It's really a better way to live. Trying to divorce yourself from your fandom to think analytically just makes you mad at Ls twice
What sad sack fashion would that be? When in 40+ years have they had the highest paid QB? Highest paid non-QB? Two highest paid WRs? They've had a good offseason. Not perfect. Need Guards. Things people said we're impossible, they did. Got the Lease settled. And might do more.
Proud of my UC degree right now 💪
Travis Kelce said the “hardest” part of hosting “SNL” was the preshow table read because he “can’t really read that well": “The writers’ rooms were fun because you’re just getting pitched ideas. The table reading, for a guy that can’t really read that well, it was kind of a…
My boyfriend said this reminds him of the photo they put on the front of Halloween costumes to show what it looks like Now I can't unsee it
New threads for Year 21 🫡 @AaronRodgers12 | @steelers
Made this twist on a classic Bengals meme yesterday for obvious reasons
Since Ive fallen in love with F1 I've watched my favorite team tumble from the 4th best team to locked into last before the summer break in 4 years. The Bengals' only hope for a SB win is to get me to not care about them 😂
TEAM STANDINGS (after 11 rounds) McLaren's 1-2 sees them extend their lead further 📈 #F1 #AustrianGP
