You gotta be fukking kidding me breh :mindblown:

The draft is an exact science?? Tell that to every team that drafts a can't miss prospect who doesn't live up to expectation! shyt tell that to Tom Brady who got drafted in the 6th round. If the draft was an exact science there would be no undrafted players that become stars, there would be no late round steals!! There are to many variables when picking human beings.

Let's just see what Mel Kiper Jr. had to say about Jamarcus Russel...
JaMarcus Russell NFL Draft - YouTube!

"3 years from now we could be looking at a top 5 elite QB" :whoo:

"his skill level is John Elway like" :leon:

Yeah all that but he's a lazy muthafukka who damn near :eat: his way out of the league!! How can u predict that??

Kipper and mcshay are awful. There is a reason they never got a GM job LOL

who cares who gets him via waivers... he has a pending trial and is going to see jail time. this cat about to get suspended for a season (at least) or will be banned from the league.

:clap:

His case was just dropped after he appealed his conviction and the witness refused to testify.

Dude is the middle linebacker on a team that can't stop that little 8 year old girl running back from getting at least 60 yards rushing. He's ass and he has checked out. He's the defensive Jamarcus Russell minus the bo and furs.

mcclain is NOWHERE as bad a LB as jawalrus was a QB

in fact, mcclain is a good LB. hes just fukked up in the head. he is good against the run, the raiders as a team arent. cant stop the run with one LB in a 4-3

with that said, hes definitely a disappointment. if he gets the legal/mental stuff sorted out I can see him doing well on a more sound defensive team

At least that we can agree on :obama:

Back to my point though...The draft is a crap shoot. U can have all the info on a player (Height, Weight, 40 time's, stats, etc.), You can never tell what's in that players mind and body!

How many players have been passed over bc they had a "serious" injury in college, then get to the NFL and that injury never effects them? How many dudes in college never had a injury their entire life and never made the field bc of injuries.

Then u got the whole "character issues" thing. You got tons of players who drop in the draft bc of "character issues" only to be model citizens once in the league...and the vise versa.

ahead of patrick willis, bowman, washington, sean lee, etc.

No crapshoot. Tape doesn't lie

Scouts get in trouble by over looking work ethic OR making excuses for a player when his tape doesn't live up to the hype

Tape does lie...

do you remember derrick strait?

if there was an exact science on being able to determine who is gonna be top NFL talent, there wouldn't be Arian Fosters, nor would there be a Kurt Warner

or a fukking Ryan Leaf.

1 no I don't

2 foster was a beast but had character issues

3 Ryan leaf had character issues but they team make issues for him and picked him

Warner was before my time of looking at tape


But I'm the same guy who gave Reggie bush a 5th round grade coming out of college. Maybe I'm just better then everyone else

I popped in his college tape and man was he a fukking awful running back he was fast tho :wow:

I do draft stuff all the time for NBA and NFL. Where have I been wrong. Since sohh/coli


Ask around. Tape doesn't lie

Even look at Robert griffin where I had him as a 1st round pick before mcshay or kipper even had him in the 7th round and I based this JUST off his Jr year tape. I had a thread on that and upped it every week
