All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
There is work to be done and things to be learned. We are going to try to get the old look back - or something close to it. We also know there are bugs. A thread will be started to report bugs and then we can pass those onto the host.
Thank you for all the patience and support with this - hopefully this will greatly reduce the crashes and other site issues we have had lately.
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

P.S. Mods please move this to Scout Zone! I made a funny.
What do you two think of a player like Calais Campbell in the 2nd round? I've heard people say that he lacks desire and motivation but I think Stroud's presence would be inspiring to this kid. I think if we got this guy in the 2nd he could turn out to be a really special player for us. Thoughts?

Solid pick IF we can get him to learn to use his arms to keep OT's off of him so he can work. He really struggled this past year with that.
COMING SOON...

Ridiculous size, isnt he 6-8? A pretty amazing physical specimen, Campbell issues have always been technique. Hes an immature on field player, not in the sense that hes a problem but its the "Ray Edwards" comparison. Both he and Vikings starting DE Ray Edwards have just phenomenal athletic ability but both let frustrations on the field alter thier play and eventually make them a non-factor all together.
Ironically hes been called "Julius Peppers Light" quite a bit. Very similar builds. Great explosion, obscene wing-span. Very very similar styles of play.
Campbell probably has one of the highest upsides of any DE in the draft.

He has some serious mental concerns on the field, he loses his cool often and his technique needs a good bit of work. He has gotten by so far on just raw talent, not on technique.

I think we have a great veteran presence on our defense, the DL in particular. Stroud, Schobel and Kelsay could really go a long way in helping this kid gaining a mental edge. I'm sorry, in my minds eye I've seen Campbell lining up next to Stroud, McCargo and Schobel and I can't help but think what our DL could be. I hope this guy is on our radar.
I'd rather get Harvey at 11. He's a more technically polished player with better instincts. All we'd have to do is throw him in the weight room and put 10 solids on him.
The guy turns up at the combine, overweight and uncommitted. Not sure if that is arrogance or stupidity. Had a disappointing season and is immature.
Turns up 13lbs above his playing weight at 303lbs and runs a 5.03 instead of predicted 4.77 - for a DE, thats pathetic.
Compared to Dre Moore, who can play in or out ... turns up at 305lbs and runs a 4.88 - performed like a demon as well as had a good Senior Bowl.
A guy who cannot be bothered when showing up on the occasion that will have a major impact on his professional career?

No thanks
Your description sounds just like Bruce smith when he got to Buffalo...hmmmm.

Or turn the fat that he's put on into muscle.
I like Merling quite a bit. He seems like a well rounded every down DE.
I've made up my mind. Don't confuse me with the facts.
I'm the most reasonable poster here. If you don't agree, I'll be forced to have a hissy fit.
