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

If we don't take Rivers or Roethlisburger in round 1 how about getting Matt Mauck from LSU in round 2 or 3 I watched him in the Sugar Bowl and he didn't look bad. He's like Henson he was drafted by the Cubs but he went back to college to play football. Where would he fall what round and at what pick?
War Room analysis
Strengths: Has good, not elite, arm strength. Shows good zip on deep-out routes, and can make all the NFL throws. Shows good arm strength when rolling right and adequate arm strength when throwing across his body. Has a quick release, and is mechanically sound for an inexperienced quarterback. Shows a consistently high and quick release. Squares his shoulders when throwing on the run, and releases passes near his ear. Shows great touch and accuracy on short and intermediate routes. Has decent straight-line speed, but is a sneaky athlete. Is quick and mobile. Sidesteps the rush nicely, and creates a lot of second chances. Is intelligent, and blossomed with experience in '03. Is a quiet leader.
Weaknesses: Still is a bit inconsistent on deep throws. Must improve timing on intermediate and deep routes. Must get better at surveying the field and making check-down reads. Improved his field vision in '03 season, but still is below average. LSU used him mostly on rollouts and play-action fakes, allowing him to read only half the field -- typically a high-low read. Shows the mental capacity to improve, but is raw. Is competitive and tough. Is not afraid of contact, but must better protect his body.
Bottom line: There are a couple of unusual concerns surrounding Mauck. He’s the oldest prospect in the group, and if things don't go as planned for him early in his career, he will quickly leave the league and go to medical school. Mauck is a relatively mobile and athletic quarterback who has continued to develop with more experience. Mauck has enough experience, arm strength and athleticism to make a defense pay for over-extending to stop the run. improved as much as any prospect in '03. He is mature but still is learning. If Mauck were completely dedicated to making a living in the NFL and worked on that goal for several years as a reserve, we think he could eventually develop into a quality backup. However, because his ultimate goal is in dentistry, there's concern that he might quit after a few years if things don't progress quickly enough.
i wouldnt feel bad if we got him.. he is a gamer.. just a bit older.. he played baseball.. he doesnt do anything REAL well.. but he is not a guy that will lose games for you.

Mauck is a former baseball player and the oldest prospect in the class...this reeks of Chris Weinke, how he does nothing exceptional but nothing to lose a game...Plus when your true passion is dealing with people with bad breath all day then I dont want him playing QB for my team
COMING SOON...

Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

I was joking too. I just brought up the picture because I thought it was funny most of us thought Carl Mauck sucked as an offensive coordinator and yet he has a video.
