No Idle Talk Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 There is no hiding place for Tua Tagovailoa now. If he doesn't impress this season he is finished in Miami and he may be headed for a backup QB role somewhere else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he doesn't impress this season he is finished in Miami and he may be headed for a backup QB role somewhere else. He's not been hiding, and has always said himself he needs to do better. What he has now is a HC who is supporting him, with better players around him and actually trying to accentuate his strengths. From stories about Flores, even if not all of them are true, it's clear he didn't want Tua and didn't support him. Hard place to succeed for a QB if a HC doesn't have your back. And if he can't provide better results with support of McDaniel and much better offensive weapons...the Dolphins have two 2023 1st round picks to get someone else. And whether it's Tua or someone else, the QB in 2023 will have a better team around him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 Looking forward to seeing how the draft shakes out. As a Broncos fan, will be strange not having a 1st round pick but no better and much needed 1st round pick than Russell Wilson. If anyone is interested in joining a dynasty fantasy league, give me a shout. Its all other Hearts fans in the league and costs a fiver per year. There are two leagues, so ideally if someone wanted to join both, that would be great, but even if it was one, that would be good too.

151 Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 This is my first draft so to speak and don't really fully understand how it works. I get the basics and watched some of the preview shows during the week. I didn't realise you can select anyone you want - i thought the whole point in the Combine etc was to get you into the round? As in the best 32 are first rounders. Then I woke up this morning and seen only Pickett was selected from the first round QB's. So I take it you can choose anyone you want and just bring them forward a round? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PortyJambo Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 After the first 10 picks, I thought it was going to be a fairly boring draft with not many surprises...then teams went wild! All those trades, and even trades including players on draft night (usually a rarity once the draft has started). I had no real interest due to Miami not having a pick, but it was still fun to watch, even if it went on too long with all the sideshows to the picks themselves.

Combine, pro days etc are simply used to gauge the physical stats of players and give scouts/coaches a closer look at players they've already identified from video and is really just used to help teams confirm the selections they are already planning and occasionally throws up someone who's games in college hid how good they actually are. Once the draft comes around teams can pick anyone they want (that meets eligibility criteria and has declared for the draft*) and each team either addresses a specific need (see the Steelers picking the only 1st round QB due to retirement of Big Ben and Haskins death) or teams will simply opt for the best available player almost regardless of position.

Thanks. I think I just got confused due to most of the mock drafts having the same names so I thought the first round only had 32 players eligible - and then so on for the other rounds based on some sort of ranking system done before the draft. I didn't realise you could pick anyone out of the 2 hundred and sixty odd folk eligible at any stage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A good example of a team picking an unexpected 1st round player was the Patriots last night picking Cole Strange. Most of the mock drafts beforehand expected him to be a 3rd round pick or thereabouts. I can't recall any mock draft expecting him to be a 1st round, or even 2nd round, player, but the Patriots and Bill Belichick obviously just wanted him and will do their own thing, no matter what other teams/"experts" might think about the player.

PortyJambo Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 David Ojabo drafted by the Ravens in the 2nd round. It's a great landing spot for him, although I wish it hadn't been the Ravens as they're one of my least favourite teams in the NFL. They don't make many draft mistakes though, and Ojabo should be a great player for them once he's recovered from his injury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would have loved Hutch and Ojabo in a Lions shirt. Overall though, a very very good draft for us. Hopefully translates on to the field in the next year or 2.

No Idle Talk Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 I don't know how many of you fine people play fantasy football but I am looking for an owner for my IDP Dynasty League this year. The vacant team isn't that strong at the moment but you will have the second pick in this year's draft. The draft is linear so you will have the second pick in every round, so this should give you a chance to rebuild. Some more info about the league. Rosters consist of 40 players. There are roster limits for each position. The positions where you only start one player each week(QB,TE,K) you can only have three of those on your roster. All the other positions you can carry seven players at those positions. You have to designate 33 Keepers each year before the draft. The draft then consists of seven rounds, where rookies and any FA players can be drafted. This completes your roster of 40 players. If you want to release players after the draft and run with a smaller roster you can do that. Draft picks cannot be traded. Player trades only. The weekly starting lineup is made up as follows: QB RB RB RB WR WR WR TE K DL DL DL LB LB LB DB DB DB The scoring system is basically standard scoring for offensive players. The only differences being a QB gets 6pts per Passing TD and players score -3 for a fumble or an INT. Kickers get 3pts for a FG, irrespective of how long the FG is. I can detail the scoring for defensive players if you need to know that. The league has been running for eight years now so it is an established league. If you would be interested in taking this team on, let me know. 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
