My youngest keeps trying to convince me that his beloved Seahawks will get one of the Giants skill players this year. This week he’s saying Kadarius is going there. He’s not. With the release of Gil Brandt’s hot 100 and MMQBs first 10 taken mock we are legit in the season of the speculation. For me the only real speculation is ‘do the Giants get Ikem ‘Ickey’ Ekwanu. I liked him before but knowing he was offered scholarships to Harvard and Yale makes me like him more. Dude has brains. He was a Fulbright Scholar (Look at the brains on Brad). He’s a smart footballer which means he will be able to develop well as a lineman beyond his base physical abilities. Line is a mind game vs. the guy across from you and understanding how they operate and countering that over the course of a week’s prep. So, I am penciling him in as the pick if he is still there at 5.
Some Thoughts:
- Writing scene might be heating up for me. Lord knows I need the deadline.
- Meanwhile, I’m about to download Halo Infinite…
