Umm.... Walter....?
There are reports that Philly traded down and planned to take Dee Ford at #26. Also that Atlanta was trying to trade into taking Ford. Maybe he was a reach. But saying they could have traded down and taken him is complete baloney. And Dee Ford does fill an eventual need. I seriously can't believe how many people actually believe that the best strategy is to pigeonhole ourselves to a few positions if they actually think they have a playmaker. Maybe he was a reach. I don't know. I'm not going to say either way. But Walter's reasons for hating this pick are mostly idiotic. |

It's not gospel. But there's enough smoke here to say that teams wanted dee Ford around where we picked. I doubt he would have been available if we traded down too far. |

I'm sorry but I like long term sustainable success. Winning one Super Bowl and being crappy for the next 7 - 8 years doesn't really do it for me. For some people that works for them. But I just don't like sucking for so long. To each his own. Having Alex for 14 mil would give us at least a couple of extra good players that other teams may not be able to afford. I still believe this is a team sport. And no one player (even the QB) should be at the expense of everyone else on the team. To me....there are only four QBs in the entire league that deserve huge paydays.... P.Manning, T. Brady, A. Rogers, and D. Breeze. And that is because they have been so consistanly good for so long. Too many teams have been caught giving their QB's these huge contracts only to have down years once they've been paid. That can't be said for the performance of the ones I've just mentioned. Consistency over a span of time should earn a huge payday... Not potential....thats for draft picks. And that's why they draft wages were changed to a wait and see approach before the payout.

Finally, some woman actually wants to **** you just once, and you're going to turn down that chance, because you hope to find a woman who'll **** you more than just once. Good luck with that.

If you're going to tell me Dee Ford doesn't fill a need, then I'm going to tell you you shouldn't be doing analysis on any ****ing NFL team.

He gives the Gaines pick an A-, but then follows it up with "sources tell me that was a reach." Way to put your balls on the line, Walt. So you loved the pick, but some dickhead freelancer that you talk to says it was a reach so that's gospel? **** off.

God, if this loser just did 10 ****ing minutes of research on the teams he drafts for. That's all it would take. Ten minutes. Ten minutes per team would get him to stop saying uninformed bullshit like this. |

I do know that the Eagles made a super shitty selection in Marcus Smith. At least Bruce Irvin had all kinds of untapped potential.

I don't understand the cred of Walter Football... I mean, there really are people who believe this guy to be a football guru... Whenever I talk football with some slapdicks around my area, they always reference Walter Football. I understand the appeal of his site...mock drafts are fun. My God though, it always irritates the shit out of me when I see a blogger or an author of a site in which the idea for the site is a good one, but the person who writes/maintains it is a total piss for brains.
There is this humor blogger who has an awesome idea for a site... I think the url was http://stuffyoushouldhate.com. Awesome idea for a blog/site, IMO... however, the guy who came up with this awesome idea is one of the most unfunny, stupid ****ing assholes I've ever heard of. Such a douchebag. And a hipster.... UGH!!!! Anyways, that shit always bothers me...good ideas being raped by the Uncle Bad Touch's who operate them. With that said, Walter reminds me of the type of dude who hangs out in his basement, watches a few CBSSports clips on the draft, reads a couple of other mock drafts and skims through a couple of message boards, writes on his website, jerks off, eats a lot of canned chili and sleeps. This dude doesn't know shit. |

And sometimes I wonder if the dude actually becomes butthurt when teams draft someone or a position that is completely different than what he mocked, making him feel stupid...which would prompt the stupid draft reviews that he posts, such as this one on the Chiefs.

![]() For 2015, this is how Walter has mocked us: Kansas City Chiefs: Cameron Erving, OT, Florida State The Chiefs recently spent the No. 1 overall pick on a left tackle, but Andy Reid loves to upgrade the trenches, so he may search for an upgrade on the other side of the front. |
