Research is definitely banned for reverse sheep. I suppose it doesn't have to be banned for sheep given that you're looking for the most popular answer, not a factually correct one, but I believe it is still frowned upon.

so much run goot, only one losing season in the last 10 years and they get the best QB prospect since Peyton Manning out of it

one of the long suffering franchises deserves Luck alskbf;abf;jbas;flba;sflb

Something completely useless that I did to kill some time tonight that I decided to share with everyone.

Went through the first 2 rounds of the 05' draft (plus notables from later rounds) and basically just marked where NFL Draft Scout had them ranked going into the draft (out of 1451 total players).

Here is a link to the actual 2005 draft.

I guess a couple things I found somewhat interesting was Godgers being ranked as high as he was, but falling so far. I'm not sure where he was ranked on most people boards that year, but this one seemed to nail it.

Patriots smash a reach in Mankins. Typical.

God damn Auburn had a lot of high draft picks. They were all mediocre for the most part.

Seahawks with the reach of Tatupu and crushing it. Remember that pick being super criticized.

Mike Nugent was actually rated 69th overall? Lol.

Ryan Fitzpatrick went to Harvard, you know.



1) Ronnie Brown
2) Braylon Edwards
3) Derrick Johnson
4) Alex Smith
5) Aaron Rodgers
6) Antrel Rolle
7) Cedric Benson
8) Cadillac Williams
9) Mike Williams
10) Alex Barron
11) David Pollack
12) Shawne Merriman
13) Troy Williamson
14) Marcus Spears
15) Carlos Rogers
16) DeMarcus Ware
17) Pacman Jones
18) Erasmus James
19) Thomas Davis
20) Reggie Brown
21) Fabian Washington
22) Khalif Barnes
23) Mark Clayton
24) Roddy White
25) Heath Miller
26) Jammal Brown
27) Travis Johnson
28) Matt Roth
29) Brodney Pool
30) Matt Jones
31) Shaun Cody
32) Kevin Burnett
33) Justin Tuck
34) Justin Miller
36) Luis Castillo
37) Dan Cody
38) Chris Spencer
40) Jason Campbell
41) Marlin Jackson
42) Kyle Orton
44) Terrence Murphy
47) Marcus Johnson
48) Corey Webster
49) Mark Bradley
52) Mike Patterson
53) JJ Arrington
55) Roscoe Parrish
57) Jonothan Babineaux
58) David Baas
61) Ron Bartell
63) Barrett Ruud
64) Bryant McFadden
65) Odell Thurman
67) Adam Terry
69) Mike Nugent
70) Michael Roos
71) Matt McCoy
73) Josh Bullocks
80) Vincent Jackson
88) Darrent Williams
89) Logan Mankins
91) Stanford Routt
97) OJ Atogwe
112) Frank Gore
109) Nick Collins
114) Eric Shelton
136) Lofa Tatupu
196) Trent Cole
230) Kelvin Hayden
245) Ryan Fitzpatrick


Feel free to draw whatever other worthless conclusions you want from this.

The **** I do when I'm bored.

Just think about how the Colts organization would handle such a scenario and it makes it a bit easier. Either Luck sits longer than he should or they ship a new re-contracted Peyton who really wants to play. Maybe Richard Tanner sits outside the office building with pom-poms so he can sit around and argue the Colts have successive GOATS but I suspect the rest of Colts fans wouldn't be summarily thrilled seeing their organization's actual GOAT shipped out of town in a ****show, because Peyton ain't stepping down anytime soon, and not for his beloved organization.

We're talking the guy who is notorious for denying any practice snaps to Sorgi, Painter or any of other backups in practice. LOL at Peyton mentoring Luck or giving a **** about him.

"Mike Williams (No. 10 overall), the best player in the draft? Ugh. In my defense, everyone considered Williams a sure thing. No one expected him to gain 30 pounds in a year."

WTF is he talking about, all I remember is people saying he couldn't separate from nfl corners and would never be a #1 receiver.

I'll never forget when Mel Kiper Jr had him #1 overall on his BIG BOARD.

When people questioned Mike Williams, Kiper replied "I'll see you at his Hall Of Fame induction!"

So my 9 year old sister won the weekly pick em this week in my town...1,300 bucks....with 3 wrong....she nailed the MNF score at 54 for the tiebreak.

And this pool it is RARE to see a winner with 2 wrong. Just proves you need to know jack sh*t about football to win these things. She had the Dolphins, Bears, Giants...

in a huge pool you have to pick a handful of smart upsets to win. going chalk you will almost always finish in the top half but never win, best case youre tying with a bunch of people who also went chalk.

If Andrew Luck was going to ELI his way out of a certain team it would definately be Indy.

Besides Manning they suck extremely hard. Their best players (Manning, Freeney, Mathis, Wayne) are all 30+ and not getting better. He also probably doesn't want to be the successor to Peyton ****ing Manning arguably the GOAT, that's a lot of pressure especially if Indy trades a somewhat healthy Manning away for Luck to start right away.

I think he could end up in Denver if Tebow doesn't keep ****ing up Elways tanking plan. They'll have to trade up but that will be easier when Luck says fu im not playing in Indy. Indy will also be facing some sort of BFavre pressure to build around Manning and not screw over the best thing that ever happened to their franchise.

Luck could also return for his senior season. He was basically guaranteed #1 last yr and his awesome HC left the team and he still stayed, so there's always the chance unless he's stated otherwise.

Trading Manning (to keep Luck) seems hard given his injury/age/huge salary that not many teams could take on.

Worst part is my dad woke me up really early in the morning with a phone call and had my sister shout GUESS WHO WON?!?!?!?! into the phone. With 3 wrong I kept telling her she had no chance to win because nobody won with 3 wrong all year...I think 2 wrong won once.

Heh when I was like 8 or 9 I got to play in my dad's work betting pool for what seemed like about 5 weeks total. I came within 1 game of winning and it was a MNF game in which I had picked the Broncos to win and Elway kept trying to come back in the 4th and throwing picks. I was pissed off and kept calling him a stupid idiot and stuff. lol. I remember being legit furious and pounding the table and stuff.

I knew very little about football (basically Montana, Rice, Elway, Marino, Simms, Jackson, Emmitt, Payton, Fridge, McMahon, Taylor, etc.) And I had a very very vague understanding of who was good. I think I picked teams whose helmets made them look like they would win and if I couldn't figure it out I would ask my dad for some input. lol. I should go try to find out which night that was... I wonder if PFR has game logs from like 1987?

2) Who is the best defensive player in the NFL?

3) What is the best team that will miss the playoffs this year?

4) Now that Adigci is gone, LOL...?

5) Who is the ugliest player in the NFL?

6) Aside from ADP, who is the best RB in the NFL?

7) Who is the most overrated team in the NFL?

8) Who is the most underrated team in the NFL?

9) Who is the most overrated player in the NFL?

10) Who is the most underrated player in the NFL?


Wanted to get a couple more fun questions in there, but whatever. Hopefully this gets a decent turnout.
