This is something i'd like to check out more but right now, only 2 of the 20 RBs invited to the combine have been drafted. Kaelon Black was not invited to the combine, and was the 3rd RB selected. That seems very uncommon!

theres still talent left at WR on the board, but since posting this i dug into these and realized much of this is boosted by players with older profiles. However, in previous years even older players weren't meeting efficiency marks this easily, so i wonder if this is a 1 year abberation

Experimenting with EDGE rushers, this is what i'm finding to be good pass rushers in this class that were invited to the combine. Ideally everyone who passes looks like a prospect that can average at least 3 pressures a game in the NFL.

Heres the 2026 RBs that pass my data and were invited to the combine. The space beating RBs tend to be safer than the other group, which is very very flukey currently. A low amount of viable long-term RBs

I'm planning to adjust the TE process soon, but using the same process as the last two years- here's what the combine-invited tight ends that pass the tests. There's a clear top 3, and the others are at a distance from them. This is probably an average TE class overall

how is Dae'Quon Wright still on the board with this many TE's chosen

Got a question about this so heres some data, Intermediate refers to distance from LOS (10-19 yards) and not "middle of field". Here's PFFs target depth data for Lemon in 2025 (left image), and 2024 (right image). In both seasons, Lemon gets more deep targets than Intermediate ones.

Bluesky doesn't allow you to send images in DMs, that doesn't seem quite right

former jets fan thoughts on the jets draft: David Bailey was a good pick. career college pressure rate is 98th percentile of all players drafted since 2016. Kenyon Sadiq was a good pick, but imo the wrong pick over Lemon. Omar Cooper was fine. I get it. Lemon and then Stowers would've been better

i was watching the knicks so heres my draft thoughts at fantasy relevant spots (sorry for making a thread): #1 Fernando Mendoza: Raiders are a bad spot to be in for year 1 and who knows what they are beyond that. Bowers at least gives Mendoza a chance to do something, if he gets on the field

Seahawks just saved 1.06 drafters everywhere

from 2009-2025, Matt Ryan had the most Roughing the Passer calls. He retired in 2022. He has 10th most per game. He's currently the NFL President of Football. I'm not making a connection, but if favoritism exists in any league, the how/why players are chosen would likely not limit to "market size"

I just want to point out that the Doomsday Clock people have had us closer to midnight than the Cuban Missile Crisis for the last 15 years, and they were quiet as mice with sore throats when the pedo was threatening to nuke Iran. This isn’t a useful indicator of anything.

ok so real question but how is there a big enough market for Dianna Russini's role as a person who gets to say "the patriots are going to trade for AJ brown" that sleeping with NFL coaches is on the table to do that? where is the demand for this coming from

Unreal levels of Cop Excellence here.

Our venerable fourth estate

Micah Parsons has come up a lot during this draft cycle as a comparison point, but one thing about Parsons is he was drafted to a team defensively led by Dan Quinn- a DC with 6 years of experience very effectively maximizing players at that point in his career.

Alright, I’m home now so here’s the Norm update. Yesterday at 4pm, I got a text from a family I’ve been helping who had a loved one abducted a couple of days after Renée Good’s murder. This was the family that Norm Nation kept from being evicted (and you delivered). ICE had released their loved one.

this + seeing the actual image of Bridges when he got the ball makes me realize this is almost entirely either Hart or Bridges fault for not finishing. why the hell did Bridges turn this to a mid-range 2 fade instead of driving

the 4th quarter was terrible for the knicks but beyond the viscerally memorable final shot, nearly every shot they took in the 4th was a miss. Brunson wouldn't let the ball out of his hands in places he should've and got pickpocketed multiple times. That was a team failure to not close it out

I get why the Steelers will want to pick up Rodgers again but Mason Rudolph has nearly the same career stats in Pittsburgh that Rodgers does

First they came 2

The Democrats sense that they're gonna cruise to midterm victory by doing nothing and offering nothing and are using it as a freebie to punch left to make sure the voters don't get any ideas.

Question for anyone out there that might know- are there any football sites out there that indicate which linebackers are playing Weak side vs MIKE vs SAM either by snap count or just by 'most played'

From this day in 2021: My nephews were curious about Final Fantasy after seeing a Moogle I drew and I described Chocobos as looking "kind of like Big Bird" so then I had to draw it.

I can't stop laughing at this post. It's perfect.

The Internet was a beautiful thing for a while. It is now exclusively for people who are mentally ill. One might think that would make it a niche product, but it remains mainstream by making more and more people mentally ill.

I don't want Kamala to run but i'm reading the comments in here and seeing Libs saying they shouldn't run female candidates. Ignoring the most obvious reason they lost: following, and aligining with, Democratic Presidents who were on a downward slope. They'd rather create a "practical" sexism

Four recent books ask: What is the influencer? According to Charlie Tyson, the answer is someone who suffers for a living. thebaffler.com/latest/they-...

it's insane to see it. He bombed schools and hospitals and all sorts of things. he's putting people in camps here where they're being murdered and sexually assaulted. are you all stupid? this is a stroke of luck.

I think this is a small win for anyone hoping that the future moves away from being US dominated. As much as i personally would've wanted Iran to win the war against the US, a ceasefire that saves the people there and allows them to phase out all potential war is for the best. I hope.

What do you want Democrats to do? There's nothing they can do. However, it's very important you continue to vote for them and give them money, as they continue to do nothing.

I didn't make this, but it needs a reposting.

If you weren't aware before, you should have painfully realized by now that pretty much everything the US State and media says about "Enemy States" is bullshit, as Lebanese Christians side with Hezbollah and Jewish Iranians get bombed by Israel. Now internalize this and advance your ideology.

Look inside Iran pre-Epic Fury. It may as well be Williamsburg. These are the people they want you to fear
