QB Ian Book has been released ... How soon before Book is brought back? I'm definitely one who gives BB his due. Not one of the hose heads who say he's a 500 coach without Brady. Those eaerlt 2000's D and the 2018 D were a main component. No way were those .500 teams....But it's time to move on. |

So you have more faith in Book than Corral?
My understanding is that Corral is familiar with the offense the Pats are deploying as Ole Miss used a similar one to Bama. I don't think Book used the same or similar offense at ND but he was very successful though that success hasn't translated to the Pro game so far. Most indicate that he lacks the physical abilities to make that transition ...

Thought #3 was to be Malik Cunningham but sounds like they want to convert him to WR ... ?
If that's the case then: 1) Mac 2) Corral 3) Book 4) Zappe as things pan out maybe.

Doesn't sound like Zappe fit's O'Brien's offensive scheme otherwise why did they risk losing him to the waiver wire to reduce him to the practice squad? O'Brien clearly preferred Corral who ran a similar offense at Ole Miss and Zappe couldn't execute anything in preseason. I think #3 is whoever adjusts best between Zappe & Book.
PS: Just heard that Corral who agreed to join the practice squad yesterday has changed his mind today. That's one fickle QB!

Another Nerlens Noel backer!
Stevens doesn’t need an available roster spot to acquire a veteran who can get the Celtics over the top. It’s even possible that a veteran signed before the season starts can be packaged to acquire a difference-maker. Sometimes, a minimum salary is all it takes to clear the salary match requirements.
A player Stevens should have contacted by now? Nerlens Noel, who was released by the Kings the same day they released Queta. The 11-year journeyman would be solid depth if Williams or Porzingis miss an extended period of time. Based on 100 possessions, Noel still averaged more than 10 rebounds and one block.
Instead, Brad might be enamored with Lamar because they share a last name.
The hard part will be convincing Noel of his potential role because he wants to play. Porzingis’ and Williams’s injury history should be enough to convince Noel to sign with the Boston Celtics. If not, then there has to be some available veteran big man out there who could provide depth in dire situations.

I think Opie's done until the season starts myself.
Noel has played 42 games and less than 800 minutes the last TWO seasons.
has the smell of toast to me.

I just smell the gas of the bricklayer twins Tweedle Marcus and Tweedle Grant saturating the air. Not really...But this will be a different team this year. They may have some growing pains, but I thinj they're still in the 55ish win category. The biggest thing is to make sure they're healty for the playoffs with defined roles.

To break 101 pages for a new record it'll take at least 35 posts.

I am liking that the 'offseason primer' board stopped short of 100 pages even after Admin lifted the stop at 99 ...as stated, my young son always loved to watch when the game went over 100, but let's do that next year when the boys bring in banner 19!...

We need the record! Is your son still playing baseball, I haven't heard you mention it in awhile. |
