AR was 53% in high school too. He did improve his senior year. But that's 53% avg over the last 7 seasons in high school + college. Could he improve to 63% in the pros. Sure its possible. But there is a reason he only threw 393 college passes. You are banking on his RB skills to compensate. The upside is probably Justin Fields with worse accuracy and a similar sack rate.
Damn they missed out on the next Ted Williams
If I had the extra cash and the time(mostly the travel time), it would be an adventure to fly in for their homes games
Another case of Holmes covering his bases in case the draft doesn't fall exactly to a certain position.
Yep, great locker room guy. Love Marvin.
PFF on Kancey:
Love it. Just hope the team stays grounded and doesn't read too many of their own hype pieces. There is still a lot of hard work left to be done.
This is why I was never too much into the Hard Knocks stuff from last year. Going into a season I'd want as few distractions as possible.
I think it worked as a great recruiting tool though. Detroit has managed to totally change the narrative on their organization.
That Hard Knocks might have been the best thing that has ever happened to the Lions franchise.
Sheila Hemp taking over was the best thing which ever happened. The first of the Ford family who was highly competitive and knows how to run an organization. Brad Holmes is the genius and MCDC is the heart and soul, but it was Sheila who brought in Speilman and help made those hires.
I think the #1 motivation for FAs is simply money. Also which team is more likely to be winning, coming off a 9-8 season works better than coming off a 3-13-1 season.
Yes but what happens when teams are offering similar pay? If I had two similar paying job offers, workplace culture would absolutely be a big part of my decision.
True on that. But I still think that's more of a word of mouth thing between players more than what they watch on HBO. Similar to how many players know about Patricia in a negative way.
I very much like him, he's not Hot Take Guy.
In hindsight the RB was a good pick. ideally they take a better position, but look at the draft. A bunch of CBs who sucked, a bust of a DT, and Montez Sweat. PFF still wants to give a bad grade for Jacobs, and they are just wrong. They would have preferred Rock Ya-Sin, soon to be on his 3rd team.
That would also be my serious answer.
Don't forget the 2012 Browns draft: Trent Richardson at 3 and Brandon Weeden at 22. Franchise defining stuff there/
I am not so sure Kancey is there at 18
Feels like this guy should get brought up more this year, but everyone loves the Hooker.
When Anthony Ruchardson enters his 3rd year in the NFL, he will be the same age as Hooker was ---last year.

Hooker is even a year older than him. I really never found out the deal with Hooker, maybe a Mormon mission I don't know about.

It's not some smoking gun that ARich is gonna be good, but I like to maintain the perspective that when Levis was the same age, he was a backup at Penn State. Now he's strutting around like Jim McMahon over here.
I dunno what Hooker was doing when he was Arich's age, managing a Blockbuster video, maybe?
3 months older than Justin Herbert, who's negotiating his 2nd contract. Ouch.
And Roger Goodell should be paying us for these schedule updates.
