    I don't think the degree of concern is enough reason to make a trade since Coutee is actually less of an injury risk than Fuller.  Trading to improve depth at the position, sure. 

    I don't think M. Bryant would cost more than a 7th at this point. The Raiders traded a 3rd for him during the draft, but they later waived him and re-signed him. If he passed through waivers, I can't imagine it'd cost much to acquire him now that they're in full on tank mode.

    I don't understand why y'all think they have to go get someone else and trade away picks when they have a guy on the roster who was drafted to help take the top off the defense from the slot position. Coutee doesn't have the same elite speed as Fuller but he's pretty damn fast (4.43 40) and he has a quick first step. He hasn't had a ton of opportunities to showcase what he can do but when Fuller exited week 4 vs Indy due to injury,  Coutee stepped up and played very well. 11 rec 110 yds or so.  The main concern with him is durability. 

    You literally answered your own question.

    not necessarily a burner, but what about sterling shepard?  they're definitely calling it a season over there, but his contract is very team friendly, unfortunately.

    i'm not a martavis bryant fan, although i'm sure he could be had for next to nothing.

    dez is definitely not the answer.

    maybe marquise goodwin wants to come back to his home state...

    I'm not either, but we seem to have a strong connection to Clemson players. Not sure how it evolves post-Rick Smith, but this would seem to be the type of environment that could maximize Bryant in a way others might not be able.

    Think that dude ends up at Bama. He's close with Najee Harris, and that's Tosh's stomping grounds 

    Word was his dad (Kendall Milton) was seeking counsel from someone he trusted that strongly endorsed Drayton... whatever that's worth. In any case, I think we'll get a legit look from him.

    Welp. On to the next one. 

    To be clear, I'm not definitively saying this recruitment is unclean. Just that the timing of the change of heart on position for only one school raises an eyebrow... particularly with Smart's Georgia.

    I think maybe Georgia has higher recruits on their board and Tongue gets trap doored. He's been adamant about sticking at WR. Not sure Kirby is about that. 

    We'll see on Warren. I'm not optimistic, the LSU mods are starting to talk him up a lot. They've called him a top 10 in state player. Oeaux will take notice eventually. 

    He was, but right before committing to Georgia he started talking about playing LB for them. Gue$$ he just really wanted to be a Dawg.

    "Narrowly missed a home run last night."

    That's one way to say it.

    "Got fucking cheated on one of the worst calls in baseball history" is a better way to say it.

     

    Think he was referring to his second AB off the wall in left.

    All in the dirt. I actually cant recall when Ive seen games with this many pitches in the dirt.

    Not true. Maldonado whiffed on a waist high fastball last night. Also he duffed a couple of McCullers breaking balls in Game 2 because he tried to backhand stab them before they hit the dirt. Maldonado has made one really good defensive play and about 6 really bad ones.

  9. Also, I haven't read the entire thread from last night, but did anyone else see the pinned tweet from MLB? Can't attach it here at work, but it was a video with the following description: Rewrite the rules. #postseason....couldn't have been more perfect.

    No, Joe.  Here's what happened:

    You made a terrible call because you're a terrible umpire.  MLB allowed it to stand because it benefitted the Red Sox and the powers that be wants a Red Sox vs Dodgers World Series.

    P.S. You and Angel Hernandez should have to fight to the death and the winner should be mauled by bears.

    A lot of this is on MLB.Why the fuck are those guys working the playoffs? If I send a text BEFORE THE SERIES STARTS that calls an ump by name that will directly fuck us, that's a problem.

    mop is who he says he is. If you had any familiarity at all with posters on Hornfans and the subsequent sites, you would know that.

    A guy with almost no posts vouches for a guy with no posts...seems legit.

    ha!  I promise I am not a troll.  I am the same "mop" that posted on Hornfans, ShaggyBevo, ShaggyTexas and now here....I am a UT grad and a huge UT fan who has been following recruiting since 1995 or so.  I was really hoping we could get Leal interested.  Of course, if eggy keeps winning, I don't expect him to regardless of how well we do. But i keep hoping laggy takes a couple of losses and we find a way to win the big 12. I wonder if that would be enough to make him interested.

    You're really not very good at this this. I can appreciate a good troll, but a Blindergarten troll? Weak.

    watson is the reason the ua game is destroying  the army game in top players

    he is a top recruiter ever since he took over the army game has been hemorrhaging

    texas should hire him as supprt staff 

    Can't for at least 2 years, I believe.

    That's not good luck.

    Matter of fact how about just don't tune in tonight. Nothing personal just superstitious. K thankssss

    I didn't say I haven't gone or watched. Just that I didn't have my email selected. I was at ALCS Game 1 last year and have watched all of the others. Not about to change that now.
