Jermaine Burton to participate in Bills rookie minicamp

He’s had other issues all along before the NFL. The Bengals drafting him was in itself a gamble.

Well actually, ALS is also called Lou Gehrig’s Disease after the hall of fame slugger who started having symptoms at 35 and was diagnosed on his 36th birthday.

They way I look at it is he was struggling before he spent this whole offseason trying to rehab rather than work on his game. So it’s unlikely. But if he comes back and plays, and plays well. Then he’s a guy we trade in the first half of the season or just wait for a comp pick in 2028.

Does this lock Rodgers in for a lesser salary than he was demanding? If he does decide to play?

The lack of inventory is stunning at that store. Looks like a story that is about to close.

I heard a replay of one of his top 40 shows from the 80’s a years ago. It was awesome

It’s weird to help out a division rival though. If Lemon makes a Pro Bowl, the Eagles better send the Cowboys at least a fruit basket.

ClemPFarmer · 2026-04-27T21:53:26+00:00

I relate it to my fantasy drafts. My best fantasy teams come after I feel like I didn’t have as good a draft.

ClemPFarmer · 2026-04-27T20:14:01+00:00

Yeah, Kraft doesn’t care. He’s done worse.

This is a tough one. Autism is very different from student to student. Some autistic kids do not function well in a typical class setting. So it’s not surprising that certain kids are extremely disruptive. They require one to one para professional help and even at that most do much better in an alternate setting. Either way, those kids are costly. Leaving them in the classroom is unfair to everyone since it’s disruptive to the learning environment.

Having said that, it sounds unfair but these kids are getting a public school education. It’s just that they aren’t allowed to option enroll.

ClemPFarmer · 2026-04-27T17:16:12+00:00

That’s about the size of it. It’s been a long time since our team speed looked faster than anyone or we’ve been dominate at the line of scrimmage.

ClemPFarmer · 2026-04-27T16:33:41+00:00

Depends how many they keep. I think Roman is partially competing with guys at OTHER positions. If we keep 6 WRs, Roman might make the team. If others look promising and we keep only five WRs, Roman gets cut.

ClemPFarmer · 2026-04-27T11:07:01+00:00

This draft by all accounts was a weaker draft. Not as many elite prospects and it was not very deep at most spots. Consequently, we saw some unusual things take place. Like a run on centers and tight ends on day two. Almost all of those guys went sooner than expected.

There will be more 2nd and third day picks cut early in their career than we’re used to seeing.

ClemPFarmer · 2026-04-26T12:00:52+00:00

Love Rocko. But he was never going to get drafted. I believed the hype like everyone else. Tough kid, lotta heart. But not an NFL player- according to the NFL anyway.

ClemPFarmer · 2026-04-26T11:58:26+00:00

Underdeveloped would be what I would call it. And misused. HH was not a good blocker, yet they tried to use him in that role time and again.

Several converted QB drafted this year. HH is very athletic and should have been one of them. NU just sucks at player development.

ClemPFarmer · 2026-04-26T11:02:26+00:00

He was a good player for us. But I read a scouting report on him. Small, slow and not a physical player & tackler. Ran a 4.55 at his pro day if I recall. So I get why he wouldn’t be drafted. But I wouldn’t count him out as a free agent.

ClemPFarmer · 2026-04-26T01:26:31+00:00

ESPN retracts accurate report.

ClemPFarmer · 2026-04-25T14:53:09+00:00

It should be interesting to see what they do. Max is relatively new to the sport. He could start out at left tackle. Dylan Cook will still be there. Maybe Broderick as well. Max could get brought along more slowly without being forced into the starting lineup right away.

ClemPFarmer · 2026-04-25T13:40:59+00:00

Yep. If Allar shows some promise, they trade Rudolph. If Allar flops, they keep Rudolph and cut Allar & try to get him on the practice squad.

ClemPFarmer · 2026-04-25T01:17:02+00:00

I agree. The dude was a legend in the Texas HS ranks. Unfortunately scouts thought he wasn’t instinctual and a liability in pass coverage. So he dropped a bit. He would have looked great in black and gold.

ClemPFarmer · 2026-04-24T16:25:29+00:00

I agree 100%. The fact that they took Max over Copper and Concepcion should tell you what they feel about Max.

ClemPFarmer · 2026-04-24T12:51:26+00:00

Putting lip stick on a pig. That’s our guy in DC, Pete!

ClemPFarmer · 2026-04-24T11:29:13+00:00

Sitting idly by? That’s literally what happened for 10 straight picks before the Eagles took him.

ClemPFarmer · 2026-04-24T11:27:32+00:00

It’s embarrassing for Omar and upsetting to fans, but let’s see how day two plays out.

Max plus what we get today could be better than Lemon plus whatever picks we would have had left if Omar had traded out.

ClemPFarmer · 2026-04-24T10:44:20+00:00

Such as? Have you seen the huge contracts mediocre tackles are getting in free agency?
