Simple question, not a troll, in response to a debate with a Collingwood mate.
Which one is a better overall player? Either at present or based on potential looking forward.
Both KPB taken in the 2006 1st round. My mate argues Reid is superior in rebound football yet seems to think this...

Not sure if anyone has brought him up and given his age dont want to put any pressure on the kid but looks like we might finally get something out of the father/son rule, other then a soft squib who leaves when the...
Having looked on with interest as the BigFooty mock draft continues to speed along, i thought it would be an interesting exercise to do a two round mock draft of how i see the draft panning out
ROUND 1
1. Miami Dolphins - OT Jake Long, Michigan
2. St.Louis - DE Chris Long, Virginia
3...
In response to Jim_Boy telling me to post it here...
Why has our board been taken off the front page and now only a small link?
We have had 38119 posts in 1237 threads whilst the Rugby Union board has had only 8436 posts in 781 threads, and what more hasn't been posted in since last Saturday...

Marcuz, take a stand and get us...
Round 1
1. Miami (LennyBriscoe) -- DE Chris Long, Virginia
2. St.Louis (LennyBriscoe) -- OT Jake Long, Michigan
3. Atlanta (manureid) -- QB Matt Ryan, Boston College
4. Oakland (manureid) -- DT Glenn Dorsey, LSU
5. Kansas City (TGBB) -- DT Sedrick Ellis, USC
6. New York Jets (wce_all_da_way)...
296 yards, beats out Jamal Lewis' 295 back in his 2066 year
Would have been good to see him be the first to break 300 yards
Get this though, he is now on 1035 after only 8 games! half a season to go and he wasnt even the clear starter at the start of the year!
one word: FREAK!
check this...
Gained: Pick 14, John Meesen
Lost: Travis Johnstone, Pick 37
Have we won or lost?
I'm not sure how to feel about TJ, bottom line is the club were sick of him being a bad influence on younger players, so probably got rid of him for a bit less then perhaps he was worth. Pick 8 from Brissie...
Just having a look at some of the attractive lines this week
Houston +5.5 at home against the Colts, i wouldn't be surprised if they got within a FG
San Diego -4 @ Green Bay, they'll be out to prove something, i think they finally click against a reasonable GB D, win by 7
Minnesota +2 @...
what are everyone's thoughts on his first game and future prospects, i was working on sunday so only managed to catch a bit of the game but from what i did see looked reasonable for a debutant, has a penetrating kick, looks like he has some footy smarts, like all youngsters he made some mistakes...
From today's Herald Sun, good story, would you agree with Mark Stevens, should Brock be the captain next year and let Neita play out his last couple without that burden or should Neitz be captain until retirement...
Realise it is early but we know generally how most sides will line up, so thought i'd kick things off with some predictions for this season, went through the entire schedule and tipped each game, the final records of a few teams surprised me (such as New York Giants and St.Louis) and undoubtedly...
I'd just like to mention him, think he has been really good of late, his ruckwork has improved 100% and no longer are we hurt as much when white goes off or heads forward, his tap work has been very good
also he offers us a lot of run and link which unfortunately the big russian is not as...
Probably been done before, but looking through the archives last night couldn't find it, so i thought i'd start a new one, what NFL merchandise do you own, or even what is your dream purchase?
I currently own
Authentic Ed Reed #20 Home Purple Jersey
Authentic Derrick Mason #52...
Funny Look at the Archives!
Was having a look through the archives on this board and found some very funny stuff using hindsight, some specifically involving some of our BigFooty Fantasy League members
this from Lenny_Brisco on the 23rd June 2005
haha, oh, hindsight is great, boller...
Great news for the kid, and a reward for his good start, a shining light in an otherwise dull season

I know the new season is ages away, but i have recently been thinking about fantasy football, and more specifically keepers, in a league with my mates we get to take 3 keepers, but the recent release of corey dillon has made my decision even harder, which 3 would you keep out of the these 4...
The odds for the big dance next season are already up:

On the back of a recent suggestion in the draft thread by manureid, i thought i would get a thread going that will eventually hold a mock draft participated in by BigFooty members, maybe 2 or 3 rounds, each team will be represented by one of its supporters or another respected BigFooty...
Thought i'd make my own mock draft, it is my thoughts and if you have different thoughts on what teams will take then i'd be glad to hear them, took me a while to go through and look at team needs and the player available but it was a bit of fun.
This is only preliminary and is mainly based...
Firstly i'd like to say this has nothing to do with me being a ravens fan and the fact that he picked the colts, but who else is sick of danielz_23, he gets on the colts and they win a couple and all of a sudden he thinks he is god! he posts a lot of crap and most of his predictions on the...

Has anyone heard anything on what numbers the new rookies have recieved? There are 5 new guys on the list: Frawley, Petterd, Garland, Weetra and Hayes, so what numbers are they getting, or do you think they should get? Some numbers that are available are:
*Nicho's old number 8
*the famous...

Jason Taylor has been announced as the defensive player of the year, which appears absolutely right when you take in some of his stats, 62 tackles, 13½ sacks, 14 quarterback hurries, two interceptions -- both returned for TDs -- 11 passes defensed, 10 fumbles forced :eek: and two fumbles...
What are people's thoughts on this guy, according to most on here it would seem earlier then expected, although i trust Craig Cameron and the fact we also got Petterd who was also considered at 12 is a bonus, also Weetra could be a good sneaky pick by the Dees, very quick and bottom aged, should...
I have it on very good authority that Brock is out of tonights big game, with a slight abductor strain, with Godfrey to come into the 22. Word is that if it were a final he would have played but the club is taking no chances, as Brock is definitely a crucial part of the team.
