Luthor is a great show, although I try watch shows that have already finished so I don't have to wait week after week. I didn't watch Breaking Bad until it was finished, it was funny to see Jesse's head get fatter over the span of the month I watched it.

Are there any odds yet on where Lebron and his fans will sign next?

Fair. Ultimately he's in a system that is predominantly off zone heavy by design and not necessity, he's effectively replacing their free agency bust Derek Cox who is a press specialist.

Nah, heres good.

Finally, mods please bury this thread in the NFL teams page. Thank you.

Why not back to Cleveland? they have pretty good young talent with only one ball dominant player, that duo would be lethal.

- Melo goes to Houston, but the new big three turn into a nightmare situation... say goodbye to ball movement. or - Melo is straight up traded for Kobe and the Lakers draft Exum as the heir apparent. - LeBron goes back to Cleveland, that would do a lot for his legacy and towards repairing the hate he gets. - Spurs fall off a cliff next year when Duncans knees give out.

I just watched part of this game and cant help but think the Iranian team is going to get executed.

It just really goes to show how important mental toughness and fundamentals are, theres too much emphasis on athleticism these days.

I gotta agree with you and Inqui here, LeBron is a transcendent basketball player and (unlike Jordan and Kobe) actually seems like a legitimately nice guy.... but I just can't stand him. Watching the Heat implode was beautiful.

Thats a good point, a guy like Asa may have "experience" entering his 3rd season but I don't think he's dressed very often let alone made the statline.

He's played 500 snaps over his career, enough for a rough indication of his consistency.

I was expecting competition, but by competition I mean an upgrade. Chykie isn't the most consistent but he doesn't get torched any more than the bums we're bringing in.

The point is thats why he was drafted, but now that twitter says we're raiding the scrapheap for tryouts I'm assuming Chykie is no longer seen as viable. Even if Pees sticks with mixed coverages Jimmy Smith is limited when we're in zone and Flowers is limited in man.

Chykie Brown is a press corner, he has 34 inch arms and literally said that press coverage is his biggest strength along with recovery speed. He's currently the frontrunner as our nickel corner (outside).

I'm not advocating that we only play press thats just the way we're built at the moment. With that said Chykie is still unproven and we probably should upgrade the depth but I'd prefer someone with a more rounded skillset.

Because we were limited and haven't found a replacement for Reed, cover 1 is typically man to man. On paper the pieces we have fit, Flowers doesn't.

This place is a madhouse whenever someone is cut, any known name regardless of if the guy is a good fit or not. It reminds me of Laker fans, "Oh man we gon get Lebron, Melo, Love, Durant, Rose, Griffin..."

Heres another problem I see with Flowers on our defense, even if you move Webb to slot Flowers is more limited than Chykie is man press coverage, which along with single high safety is what our defense is geared towards, we brought in Huff and now Brooks to replace Reed in deep alignment, and big press corners in Jimmy and Chykie who are projected to pair up on the outside. You could throw Flowers in the mix (ignoring that he doesn't want to be a backup) and a lot more cover 2-3-4 looks but that wouldn't be playing to our strengths.

To build on the point Bullrush made we have two corners that play over 90% of the defensive snaps, Corey Graham played 63%. Does anyone seriously think Flowers would want to be a backup when he could be a starter for a cover 2 team? oh yeah, he also doesn't like to play the slot.

Edge of Tomorrow 8/10, not a Tom Cruise fan but it's a great sci fi movie. Maleficent 3/10, boring and corny, even if that was the point.

You guess wrong. Again.

Refer back to post #96.

I said he's neither the right player or price, declining production, can't play slot, can't press, wasn't worth his 5 something mill pricetag. You don't pay a guy based off what he did years ago.

Do you really think we're going to get in a bidding war for a zone corner on the decline? right player right price for which he is neither. Lets put this pipe dream in the trash with all the others.
