I can confirm that Mark Kaboly will scarf down over 60 hotdogs, 3 dozen glazed donuts, and at least 2 cases of cherry Coke while in Indianapolis this week.
No word on if Mike McCarthy will or will not be joining him!

That’s an encouragingly BPAish player group (3 different positions for 1st round options). That said, LB looks really strong/deep this year, so i would lean against it in the 1st round.

I used to somewhat like Kaboly. He's become a prick over the years. Angry fatty....
In their current state, I hate everything about this organization.

From that list I am firmly on the Lee Hunter bandwagon. Can’t see them trading up for Downs with all their needs.

I'm waiting on reports coming from agents or players. Any of the Pittsburgh media are hanging out at the Slippery Noodle drinking beer and watching the combine on TV so i expect nothing from them

Pittsburgh sports media guys have been really pimping Allar the past several days. Dejan, the Fan morning guys, Delac and Fittapaldo, Starky and the weatherman, have all been riding Allar to the Steelers bigly!
Do they know something or are they just being their usual “homer” selves?

Won't happen....domestic assault, DUI with felony fleeing. Too many red flags to round 1.

See, here's where I almost miss Tomlin. He would've traded a first, both thirds, his wife, her tshirt business and his weird son to go get Styles after that performance.

Gonna miss calling him The Phenomenal One on Saturdays. Was hoping there'd be a chance he'd at least be on the board for us, but that's far gone now.

Sigh.
