    The edge guys are still there. And Hooker and Levis. Still no pick in, I’m sure they’re trying to trade back.

    And they signed David Montgomery and have D’Andre Swift. Someone’s going to get grumpy about touches.

    I don’t want Will Levi’s, I think he’s indecisive. Hope that report about the Vikes not liking him is accurate.

    Is that what happened to Mahle? He had the squirts?

    Well so much for Jackson! Didn't see that extension coming. Wish the Vikings would have extended Jefferson before the draft though. What if they do get a young QB like Richardson, Hooker or Lance? If they get a guy that's a question mark, how's Jefferson going to feel about that?

    With the Rodgers situation finally settled, I'm going to predict that there will be buzz about either Lamar Jackson or Kirk Cousins getting traded. Kirk to SF or NE, and Jackson to whichever teams whiffed on the top 4-5 QBs. Not that either will, just that there will be buzz. And don't hold me to that, I'm just more bored than normal during draft week.

    Smith and Myles Murphy are the guys I'd look at staying put for. I think Murphy will gone for sure though despite some of the mock drafts I've seen.
  8. nicksaviking
    I'm with you, I could see this being QB or bust in the 1st round. I guess I'd agree with that unless one of my very few favorites are still on the board.
  9. nicksaviking
    What is this TeeVee you speak of?
  10. nicksaviking
    After that slide, Judge may be taking some days off.
  11. nicksaviking
    Provus was saying it was 2 MPH less than his normal bad today.

    The radio says Maeda's velocity is down, even from his past starts. If true, he probably should have taken that IL stint.
  13. nicksaviking
    This is starting out well.
  14. nicksaviking
    I figured the Twins were going to have to get lucky and have some of the young guys step up to drag this offense out of the mud, but if they can get 2019 or 2021 Polanco back, that would be the biggest boost they could ask for.

    Man, it's just hard to believe this is actually a New York Yankees lineup.
  16. nicksaviking
    Fun and good for you! No question on my end, but every time I go back and look at Marty's BBR page, it seems crazy that the team just non-tendered him after putting up an .828 OPS season. Easily the second best hitter on the team that year. They decided not to pay him and gave his job to David Ortiz, who the Twins did the same thing to three years later.

    Historically, he's got a non-concerning walk rate too. As far as bullpen arms go, high strikeouts and velocity plus decent walk rates make for great lightening-in-a-bottle candidates.
  18. nicksaviking
    Didn't see this one coming! More than happy to see what he's got though.
  19. nicksaviking
    If that was the place Rodgers really wanted to go, I don't know why he didn't flex and tell GB to make the deal the Jets wanted or he'd destroy their cap. Which makes me think, maybe Rodgers wanted to go to SF, which GB would never have agreed to but would have allowed them to put the pressure on the Jets.
  20. nicksaviking
    All things being equal, who gets a better return, Rodgers or Cousins? Rodgers right? Because of his history? Cousins was clearly the better QB last year though and comes with much less baggage and isn't going to be 40-yeras-old this season.
  21. nicksaviking
    Thought about it awhile and your math checks out!
  22. nicksaviking
    I was actually going to say he looked great! He also sounded much more informative than when I heard him on Sunday Night Baseball, but to be fair, I also didn't really notice him on Sunday Night Baseball. Maybe he's being under-utilized.

    I wanted Archer in the pen last year and I guess my thoughts are the same with Maeda. The Twins didn't have the depth (and I hope that was the only reason) to move Archer, but they do with Maeda. Not a slight on him, it just seems like he'd be the starter best suited for it, and with his age and long layoff due to injury, most benefited by it. Plus, he's already done it. With how much I distrust relievers, particularly ones coming from other clubs, I think IF the bullpen needs to be beefed up, the best option is a current starter.
  24. nicksaviking
    I know he's cooled off, but Larnach still leads the team in pitches per plat appearance and in walks so I'd like to see him get a chance to lead off. Agree with Kirilloff and Kepler. Though you could have probably substituted a half dozen names instead of Kirilloff and I'd have agreed.

    For what it's worth, Peter King has Houston taking Hooker at #12 and Richardson sliding to the Vikings at #23. That would have seemed far fetched a week ago, but the QB opinions at the moment are about as volatile as it gets aside from Young going #1. Houston does seem way too dysfunctional to draft a 'project' QB though, so that would make sense. I mean, who would you trust to teach him how to play? Or, wait, I guess if they are too dysfunctional, then maybe they don't have the self awareness to know that they shouldn't draft a 'project' QB.
