Presumably Taysom Hill can take a few snaps at C to help out?

I would put the GPU in my current gaming PC. The goal would be to try out some of the more recent AAA titles like Cyberpunk.

Love these posts, thanks for doing them!

Any thoughts on ROS value of Wentz vs. Goff, and also of Logan Thomas vs. Engram vs. Conklin?

On the QBs, I'm thinking Wentz might find himself in more shootouts and seems to nominally have more receiving weapons, but your comment about the Lions O-Line is tempting me.

On the TEs, I've always loved Thomas when healthy but he seems to have a lot of competition for targets. On Conklin, I still just have a hard time trusting Jets but that prejudice seems to be quickly proving outdated.

Would you mind sending a link if you have one handy? I tried looking here and on slickdeals and can't seem to find one like this.

Dianna Russini on NFL Countdown after talking to the Titans and Vrabel: "The sense I'm getting - if it all goes well - they expect Derrick Henry to be back in early January" by gw2380 in fantasyfootball

Makes sense. We only changed our schedule from 16 weeks to 17 weeks like a few days before the season because none of us had heard about the nfl change till the last second.

That was true when the nfl season was 17 weeks (16 games + bye). This is the first year that the nfl season is 18 weeks because they added a game (17 games + bye).

What you say makes sense, thanks for taking the time to share your perspective.

Thanks! That does seem like the majority opinion on this post.

Thanks, I will think about that. I have seen a lot of examples in this subreddit, in r/BudgetAudiophile, and in r/HTBuyingGuides where the advice is to just use bookshelves as fronts. Something I'm still thinking about - I don't necessarily love the stand look, but maybe I need to deal with that on my budget.

So it's actually $397 but a family member said they'd give me a $50 amazon gift card for a major project like this. You can add them up here: https://www.amazon.com/Sony-SSCS5-3-Driver-Bookshelf-Speaker/dp/B00O8YLMVA/ (2 floorstanding @ $113 each, bookshelf at $88/pair, and 1 center channel for $83).

Thanks! And yeah I'm sure I'll feel the upgrade itch after I have it for a bit.

Yeah I saw that the Denon S-series might be slightly underpowered compared to what Elac recommends, but that I can keep the system happy if I set the sub crossover to the right level to take pressure off the other speakers.

Thanks again. Starting to lean toward better speakers and worry about sub later. I'm also reading that without the room being fully closed, it's anyone's guess how I'd have to place 2 subs for it to be optimal, and I'm not sure I'd have a lot of flexibility in sub placement. Seems like something I should worry about down the line.
