If we get him for pick ten, I'm all over it, I worry he will cost a lot more tho.

Four hours of Superbowl - just 12 minutes of actual game-time!

Really ? How is that possible for only 12 minutes of game time to be shown ? I'm confused haha

As we all know the clock keeps ticking at the end of a completed 'inbounds' play (unless there's a time-out) and a team will often use up all their allotted time before snapping the ball (when given that opportunity)

I guess it's feasible but I was still really surprised by the 12 minutes bit though - 4 hours put aside for just 12 minutes of actual game time - that's just wrong

Couldn't find the youtube video but have a listen to the reaction of the Seahawks fans in the latest podcast of 'Highly Questionable' (about 15 minutes in) Intolerable cruelty I'd call it but it's hard not to laugh.

Yeh me too.

I mean, I knew it didn't amount to much, but was still surprised.

I remember back in the late 80s or early 90's when Don Lane hosted the ABC's coverage, their match of the week would go for 1 hour... in my memory, it was just play after play, but with the benefit of hindsight and these stats, I guess they showed the entire time the game clock was running.

Was a great way to watch, with another 30 minutes devoted to highlights from all the other games. And being on the ABC, there were no ads!

When you watch the short version on game pass which is just each play it goes for about 45 mins iirc.

I remember seeing something like that stat a couple of years ago. The actual amount of time players play/move in NFL is ridiculously short. The rest of the time is player changes, lining up and getting up out of the pile plus ads/time outs.

So the draft is coming up. Day one of the draft is a lot of fun with all the trades that go on and the pressure GM's go through whilst on the clock. Another year of hyped up QB's but with my very limited knowledge I wouldn't take either. Winston reads like a johnny football book. I can't believe how much hype was going on with Johnny last year. I got sucked in a bit. My boy Teddy had a horrible pro day and 4 years of game tape were thrown out the window as teams wouldn't touch him. Thank god for that. Mariota doesn't run a pro style offense but everyone keeps saying him and Chip Kelly getting back together would be a match made in heaven. They would have to trade up with maybe Washington. Would you want to trade up and place all bets on Mariota? I dunno it hasn't worked out too well in Washington so far. I'm hoping Minnesota can draft a corner back as all year we really only had one. A Receiver is needed but I would rather stock up on defense. I don't think we are going to ever out gun anyone in our division. anyone else know/hope what they want in the draft?

Im hoping the falcons can snare Dante Fowler Jnr or Vic Beasley... Both were impressive at the combine. Yeah I find the NFL draft fascinating how sides can draft up on the night etc, makes it a lot more interesting than the AFL one. I think the bucs will take one of winston or mariota having released Mccown they only have Glennon and his no star...

I didn't mind glennon your right he is no star but I thought he was a better option then mccown. How lucky is mccown? Yeah he shows glimpses of being a ok QB but with the lack of free agent QB's and college QB's mccown gets a deal with Cleveland.

Yeah and look at the deal his got.. 3 years at 14 mil with a chance of 20 mil & 5.25 mil gaurenteed in first year LOL.. Got lucky!

What's everyones thoughts on Hayne ? Not sure how he'll go, it's a fair challenge. Wonder how he'd go as a kick/punt returner aswell ?

His 40 yard dash would've had him in the top ten at the combine. He can catch as well. But can he pass protect and read a blitz on either side of the line? It's what he is going to need to do. If he makes the practice squad I'd say that's s massive success.

Kap to be traded!!!

Really???

That would likely be the final straw. On top of Gore's mooted move to the Eagles & the likely loss of Crabtree to FA, the owner & GM might find themselves strung up from the Golden Gate Bridge

And now they are reporting Bradford being swapped with Foles from the Eagles...

Gore to Indy, appears to have pulled out of Eagles handshake.

Jimmy Graham traded to Seahawks... big one.

What the hell is going on? Graham a Seahawk? Bradford and Foles traded? Chip Kelly will either look like a genius or he will be killed by a lynch mob in Philly. I know he runs his offence differently to others but in two years he has lost Jackson,Mcoy,Maclin and Foles. That's a lot of weapons lost. Seattle just got a lot better. That Super Bowl might've been different if you have graham in the end zone.

Was told Gore Cried in a interview about going to Philly... WTF?

Getting Foles is interesting as my very good mate is an Eagles fan so I follow them closely as well.

Revis is back at the jets for a lot of guaranteed coin. I still can't work the Foles bradford trade out. Unless philly are going to make a play at mariota in the draft by trading Bradford. The saints signed graham to a 4 year 40m deal last year. Why do they bother with contracts?

My mate was saying that the he reckons Bradford will be traded on so they get Mariota.

Interesting times.

They don't muck around in the NFL.. What a start to the free agency period
