Crazy that Cameron Calhoun is rated higher than Domani Jackson

If Calhoun is that good, where do our CBs line up? Brown is good, Jackson is good, and Calhoun is supposed to be better. Nice problem to have.

It’s just King Henry. Shaun and Mark can fight for number 2.


Shaun Alexander is hard to compare with the others. It sure was fun to watch him in his era.

Don't sleep on Najee Harris. He might be in my top 3. You almost have to pick Henry and Ingram because of the trophies as the top 2. But Najee has some GAUDY stats. And maybe the best highlight reel.

Najee has the MOST: Rushing Yards, Rushing TDs, Receiving Yards, Receiving TDs, Total Yards, and total TDs. You could make an argument for him being #1.

Trent Richardson is my sentimental favorite. Looked like an alien. Would not go down.

I just saw a post that The NS is now a co owner of the Detroit Lions. Anyone know if this is true. It was on FB so it must be true, right?

They link to an article from moresoccernews.com that says:

quote:

In a stunning development that bridges the worlds of college football dominance and NFL resurgence, the Detroit Lions have officially welcomed legendary Alabama head coach Nick Saban as a new co-owner of the franchise. The announcement was made Thursday morning at Ford Field in front of a packed room of media, team executives, and Lions players.

“It’s an incredible honor to join the Detroit Lions family as a co-owner,” Saban said during the press conference. “Football has given me everything. Now I want to give back—not just to the game, but to a franchise that’s building something truly special.”


Do you see clips from that press conference anywhere on the internet?

Will read later but NIL is basically FA but the NFL has guidelines and salary caps. So in college the rich will get richer as the Texas's of the world have deeper pockets then say the Clemson's of the world. AU has the apple guy but I am pretty sure he does not give a rats arse about AU football. So just cuz one has rich alums does not mean they are going to pour millions into NIL. Plus, right now, NIL donations are not tax deductable. And they never should be.

We haven’t had a receiver with his size in a LONG time. Very similar to Odunze from Washington
