Shaq Lawson to Buffalo. Good pick, and props on not reaching on Paxton Lynch.

Welcome aboard, Sherbert Rankins.

I'm happy with the pick. I was betting on Shaq Lawson, but I'm certainly not going to complain about Rankins, ^__^


Yay! Sherbert Rankins is gonna be awesome! Hopefully. X3

It's about the BIG MONEY always getting their pound of flesh in the end, like pretty much as it's always been in America. Lots of loads of crap out there. Just another one to get over.

He made his employer (The NFL) upset. Working in the USA is like this everyday for the average worker. People can get suspended or fired for ridiculous things.



You do know that the NFL is a nonprofit organization, right?

He's the QB from Memphis, rumor was Sean Payton wanted him. I'm kind of glad though, since I wanted Prescott and if the Saints do take a QB it paves the way for them to take him.

He's got potential, but I don't think he's a day one starter. Sitting behind the Sanchize might do him some good and put the Broncos back in contention a season or two from now. It's certainly the sort of scenaro Sean Payton had in mind if that rumor was true. #My2Cents

Memphis was ranked in the top 10 for a large portion of last season. They may not traditionally be good, but they were last season.

Yeah, I wouldn't be happy looking at that for the immediate future either, lol

Just saying a few seasons from now it might be looked at in a more positive light, even if 2016 isn't looking that great. Then again though, with Denver's defense they might risk starting him this year, that'd be interesting to see how that goes.

If they can win with the noodle armed fivehead then they have a decent enough chance with either the Sanchize or Lynch.
