6.852. Waiver Wednesday

This is the last moment I get to write about football before the draft. Honestly, I do not know what to expect, but I expect the Giants are looking to make a haul that is wider in scope than the 1st round. The 1st is a media-driven dynamic. All the media talks about is 1st. Still, if the G-men can get Breece Hall in the 2nd to split time with Barkley, then that reshapes the offensive threat. At that point you don’t need a TE to be that dynamic of a WR, because you have at least 1 back coming out of the backfield each and every play. Also, Barkley is free to play less and, if it doesn’t work out we have a guy who can replace him and send him off to free agency.

So, who do the G-men take? 1st is going to be a lineman on the offensive side, and maybe a defender or a trade back. I feel they will use these two early picks to add talent and continue to build throughout the draft. I also feel lie Golladay is done after a season along with most of the WR corps. That means there will be WR drafted day two or three. All of it adds up to exciting times leading away from the draft. I do not expect playoffs this year but give it another year and this team is building towards a deep run.

Managed to unlock the motherlode of pics of my graduating kid. So, each year a kid graduates I do a video to music of that kid’s life. First year it was more of a slide show situation, but the next one got a bit more high tech. This 3rd will be like the second–especially now that I found all the source material for the website I maintained through my marriage. puphateot,com was pretty darn good. I’m not in a world where such things are needed now–Facebook does all that heavy lifting. At the same time, I don’t use any significant social media outside of this blog. Still, it is long past time to throw up a few pics of that woman I love… if she lets me. Maybe I’ll wait to ask about that. I so dislike rejection.

Some Thoughts:

  1. Did a talk at the job about writing freelance. It went.
  2. The partner treated me to tacos after and I ate so much that my belly threatened to revolt. It didn’t. Still, that being the one meal of the day is a large part of why I am out of shape. The other large part? Exercise. I don’t do that. Heck, I can hardly spell it without spellcheck.
  3. Spellcheck… Kids be using grammerly now.
