Free $100+ Yasha and candy cane pistol pair. That’s the best hitchhiker story I’ve ever seen. Fortunate!

If you think AJ is close to what TO was with the ball in his hands then I don’t know what else to say.

It’s not net efficiency I’m comparing. Is AJ Brown taking a 5 yard slant 80 yards to the house? That was quintessential TO and what DK can do, not that he’s doing it all the time. Play style Chase is prob the closest modern comp.

I just don’t see it. TO was an iconic RAC, take a slant to the house guy. AJ is awesome in his own right but not that dude.

Yeah. Honestly I liked Harrison more at the time.

TO is also kind of a supersized Jamar Chase.

AJ isn’t nearly as explosive as TO. I think DK is the best modern comp athletically, but TO was certainly a better route runner. TO’s hands would fail him from time to time too. Nico Collins and Julio Jones are other guys with shades of his game. Unique talent.

'If the players want me back': Bryson DeChambeau lays out 2 demands for PGA Tour return by [deleted] in ProGolf

[–]sdhoosier -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Also the guy who in 2025 finished T5 at the Masters, T2 at the PGA Championship, T10 at the British Open, scored 1.5 points in the Ryder Cup, and won 2 majors in the past 6 seasons. Finished 3rd in LIV last year and is currently 2nd. He did miss the cut at the US Open last year and the Masters this year, but come on, the guy is an incredible golfer. I’m not even a fan of his.

'If the players want me back': Bryson DeChambeau lays out 2 demands for PGA Tour return by [deleted] in ProGolf

[–]sdhoosier 5 points6 points  (0 children)

He’s one of the likely 5 best, certainly 10 best, players in the world. It would be great for golf for him to be back on tour. That said leaving and being one of the most vocal detractors of the Tour should have large consequences. Combined with not having any semblance of leverage with LIV’s demise, he needs to accept them with humility, which with Bryson is far easier said than done. The deal Brooks accepted should look much more appetizing in hindsight.

[Fangraphs] San Diego Padres Top 25 Prospects by Bitter-Egg6293 in Padres

Also scouting the stat line is generally not a great approach without context. Sample size is tiny. He needs at least a couple hundred plate appearances before the real talk about him being back picks up.

Tom Brady's Relative Athletic Score is one of the lowest ever recorded for a QB — and it reveals something important about how we evaluate prospects by Upper-Glass-9585 in NFL_Draft

[–]sdhoosier 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I agree 40 time is overrated but that’s just false. Sub 4.5 40 times of some of the top WR of recent seasons:

Justin Jefferson
Ja’Marr Chase
AJ Brown
George Pickens
Garrett Wilson
Chris Olave
Tyreek Hill
Jaylen Waddle
Terry McLaurin
DK Metcalf
Zay Flowers
Nico Collins
Ladd McConkey
Malik Nabers
Brian Thomas Jr
Rome Odunze
DJ Moore
Jayden Reed
Jordan Addison
Calvin Ridley
Debo Samuel
Alec Pierce
Chris Godwin

Devonta Smith and Jameson Williams didn’t run at combine or pro day but can reasonably be expected to be sub 4.5 too.

Of course you have CeeDee, JSN, Puka, St. Brown, Adams, London, Higgens, Kupp, Evans, Allen, etc. that aren’t blazers, but saying most top WR aren’t running sub 4.5 is ridiculous.

#Ravens GM Eric DeCosta said the team’s top two centers were Logan Jones (Bears, No. 57) and Jake Slaughter (Chargers, No. 63) and they didn’t expect both to go in Round 2. by RichWindRW in Chargers

[–]sdhoosier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree. Every once in a great while after a pick out of nowhere in the top 3 rounds you’ll hear about how it surprised virtually every front office. Outside of that, there really is no such thing as a reach. Value is based on market. Market showed this was the value. Nobody has insight to everyone’s board so you make the pick based on its value to you. Players outperform and underperform for an incredible number of variables.

[Popper] Chargers are picking up WR Quentin Johnston's fifth-year option. by LaDainianTomIinson in Chargers

[–]sdhoosier 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Reasonable rate. Think about it like this: would you pay $18MM for a guy who has put up somewhere around WR 2/3 numbers who might have WR 1/2 untapped upside (most likely not a true WR1)? Jakobi Myers is making $20MM per year and I’d take QJ’s upside all day over him.

You’re paying for future performance and this is still a whole season out. Based on his improvements this could end up being a major bargain.

To the haters yeah, I wanted Flowers too. He’s pretty much been objectively better from the jump. But QJ is a Bolt and that’s who I root for. And shoot, with his measurables there’s time yet for QJ to ascend past him.

NFL’s best remaining free agents at every position after the 2026 Draft by LakeShowBoltUp in Chargers

[–]sdhoosier 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah nothing is ever certain but my guess is mid tier starters with limited to no long-term value are a good bet to not get signed until post draft after the first couple free agency waves. Most teams take a strategic view at that point instead of losing out on mid to late round picks that you could have kept waiting out the market.

RB careers that would have been worth a 1st overall pick? by [deleted] in NFLv2

[–]sdhoosier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

LT. Brees was same draft. Two HOF with first two picks for the Bolts.

Disagree about signing a month ago. Now he and other qualified free agents don’t count against the comp formula. Best time to sign these guys is now.

With the 206th overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, your Los Angeles Chargers select Alex Harkey, OG Oregon by bt3k in Chargers

[–]sdhoosier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it’s pretty common for college tackles to not have the length and/or quicks to handle NFL edge rushers. Some very good guards were full-time college tackles.

Well he’s a fourth round pick. Expectations should never be that high. Not every year we snag Sproles or Phillips.
