Let me drop some knowledge for you Jay: Since 2021, teams that start 4-2 make the playoffs 76.9% of the time (30 of 35 possible teams) And if you wanted to dig deeper, Cleveland’s schedule outside of the AFC north has only one team with an above .500 record currently (Vegas is at .500 right now) On the flip side with the Rams pick, teams that start 2-4 make the playoffs 21.9% of the time in that same span. Consider of the next 6 games, Rams will play 3 teams above .500 (and a fourth one that they already lost to in Arizona?) Yeah, the #DawgPound should be looking to win as much as possible. That Rams pick is gonna be higher than folks initially thought.
“I really don’t want to go win a bunch of meaningless games this year that drop our draft pick.” — @JaycrawfordCLE Jay believes the #Browns are currently playing above their level. 👀🏈 ▶️ youtu.be/nXZ448xPVOM

NEW SCOUTING NOTEBOOK! At the midway point of the college football season, I took a look back at my summer top-50, identified 15 players to talk through, and discussed why they've either exceeded expectations, solidified their draft stock, or disappointed. 🔗🔽

Sources: Maryland coach Mike Locksley has been dismissed. Maryland dropped to 2-5 on Saturday after a last-second loss to Rutgers. Locksley is 39-54 overall at Maryland, including his interim stint in 2015. Maryland is on a bye this week.

Hang Christian’s tweet in the rafters man, because I don’t think I could’ve said it any better myself. The one thing I’ll add; College Football doesn’t have a QB problem; it has a QB DEVELOPMENT problem. Most of college and pro QB gurus are QB MAXIMIZERS and not developers (meaning they can get the most out of you for a year, but when the film is out on you, you’ve got no shot to overcome that.)
All these kids had insane talent. None of these kids have a development system that fosters growth, because there isn’t a single program that focuses on QB development. Winning is all that matters to these coaches. Transfer portal craziness definitely doesn’t help. A plague.

Michael Hawkins Jr. put up some VIDEO GAME numbers last week, and I’m excited to see if he can keep this momentum rolling. The flashbacks to Pat White he gives me aren’t just about his legs; it’s the way Hawkins can threaten defenses outside the pocket, maintain his downfield vision, and generate impressive velocity and accuracy while throwing on the run. That ability to change his launch point and deliver without a perfectly set platform is what makes his arm talent and his game as a prospect so intriguing for the 2027 #NFLDraft

Where my NFL Draft followers at! Got some changes happening!
I have a new TOP-RATED SAFETY in the 2027 Draft Class! Jelani McDonald is exactly the kind of player the NFL needs today. He's a physical, A+ run defender, high-level communicator, and has the instincts to take away routes over the MOF. This play encapsulates him

Hey #ForTheShoe fans, if you were to entertain an offer for Drew Ogletree, how much would you be asking for, draft capital wise? (Asking for a friend who’s on the hunt for TE depth in Cleveland #DawgPound) Also #BoltUp fans, what’s the cost on Justin Eboigbe? Let’s make a deal 👀

The next Miami Hurricane? 👀 #CollegeFootball
🚨NEW VIDEO CONTENT🚨 While Gio Lopez is draft-eligible, I do not think that's his path forward. Getting paid handsomely this winter, however, is. And he's putting himself in a position to be a hot commodity that Wake will have to pony up to keep around. 🔗🔽

Can confirm. The box score is going to tell you otherwise, but the film is a LOT better than the box score will show
I'm only halfway through this Austin Simmons tape, but this is the best I've eaten watching a QB in a 31-3 loss ever. You cannot convince me this was a bad game.
