@benbbaldwin Rookie deals should come with massive incentive layers. The issue isn’t that RBs should make more money, it’s that RBs should make money sooner when they’re producing top 10 league-wide numbers

@ACozyGamer at the buzzer with Rocks & Hawks wouldn’t have it any other way 🔥

@HaydenWinks Designate point multipliers to each player drafted in each round of the draft. Exponentially increasing. Late round gems win

1st round: 1.0
2nd round: 1.05
3rd round: 1.1
4th: 1.15
5th: 1.2
6th: 1.3
7th: 1.4
8th: 1.5
9th: 1.6
10th: 1.75
11th: 1.9
12th: 2.0
…
…
18th: 3.0

One of the best super bowls of all time…

@FG_Dolan Ravens & Jets elite QB Joe Flacco

[Michael Zingone @FFzinger]

@ClutchFantasy @AnOutragedJew Fully agreed. Went from -10 to 20/15 vision, personally. Literally life changing

Jaxon Smith-Njigba joins an illustrious list of hyphenated last name WRs:

Darrius Heyward-Bay
Dorial Green-Beckham
JuJu Smith-Schuster
Marquez Valdes-Scantling
JJ Arcega-Whiteside
Donavan Peoples-Jones
Antonio Gandy-Golden
Ihmir Smith-Marsette

Take that for data

[kev mahserejian @RotoSurgeon]

name test is crucial in scouting prospects

Kayshon Boutte: WR1 name
Jordan Addison: WR1 name
Quentin Johnston: WR1 name
Zay Flowers: WR1 name
Josh Downs: WR2 name
Jalin Hyatt: WR3 name
Jaxon Smith-Njigba: bust

@SethWalder So one part I’d be curious your thoughts on. Brian writes that the second-mover advantage is counterbalanced by the 1st team getting the first sudden death possession

But if the optimal strategy is as above (1st team kicks, 2nd team goes for 2), then there is never a 3rd round

[Michael Zingone @FFzinger]

@SethWalder Thanks Seth 👊🏼

[Michael Zingone @FFzinger]

@SethWalder Interesting, wouldn’t the edge of knowing if you have to go for it on 4th be enough to drive it net positive?

[Michael Zingone @FFzinger]

@SethWalder If the %s on 2pt conversions are > 50% (which I think they are, slightly), then shouldn’t 1st possession team go for 2 given that 2nd team would if they kicked PAT

[Michael Zingone @FFzinger]

Bills get their bye after all

[Adam Schefter @AdamSchefter]

Dolphins’ HC Mike McDaniel ruled out Tua Tagovailoa for Sunday’s game vs. Buffalo. He still has not cleared concussion protocol.

[Michael Zingone @FFzinger]

How ‘bout Amon-Ra, Jameson, and DeAndre 👀

[PFF @PFF]

DeAndre Hopkins on the move this offseason? 👀

[Michael Zingone @FFzinger]

If you thought Georgia-TCU was a mismatch wait until Bills-Dolphins

Contractually obligated to do his homework on this one
