The 2072 NFL Amateur Draft

Picking first is…Cincinnati. They take…(my guess is RB Levon Greenburg, the 2nd best player in the draft at any position)…nope, they go WR. Levon Greenburg goes #3 to Seattle

The 1.28 arrives…who do I like here?

C Carlton Darby – As Scouted, the top OC that was very underrated went 1.14 to LA Rams.
OG Donnie Fitzgerald – 2nd best player on the board, Hard to Read, has a poor str, great everywhere else.
MLB Rickey Young – As Scouted, solid but not spectacular, might replace Ingram next year.

All of the DBs I interviewed are off the board.

Wanna see Darby?

https://i.ibb.co/7Qg3bjZ/Jets-369.png

Here you go! He’s strong at everything! He’s As Scouted. He should be a solid grab…but do I grab him?

[Abe Sargent]

I grab him.

2.28 – Who do I like here? RB Cristian Swager looks good and could be my new Starks. No TEs were taken in the 1st but a few good ones are left. I need a good one after letting mine go in UFA. TE Ian Ellison looks nice. I go Swager, he looks like a grower…


3.28 – OG Rod Kosteva? Did RT Kody Davidson fall to me, I really liked him and I’d like to come out of this draft with an OT that I can start if needed. I grab Davidson.


4.28 – DE Bucky Polk? SS Ian Knight? Hmmm…..I need d back more but Polk looks better… I grab Polk, he’s the BAP.


5.28 - SILB Thurman Burgess looks nice. I take him? Sure!


6.28 – QB Efrain Curtis? I love how good he looks. He’s a shower not a grower… I take him I need a better backup QB especially since Maumau is aging and thus more likely for the injury.


7.28 – How about….CB Paul Bowman? He looks like a grower…

The 2072 NFL Preseason

I start Darby, Davison and England at LT.

I cut Cathey now to give him time to not drop in Preseason

I move Freestone to CB and he booms to 56/67 and I’ll start him in Ferguson’s spot as he dropped to 44/44. Ferguson will be my nickel.

Week 2 – At KC – We lose 28-31

Week 3 – Miami – We with 37-3

Week 4 – At LV – We shut them out 33-0

Week 5 – Ny Jets – We win 23-17.

Darby dropped a bit. Sad. Swager boomed as I thought! Davidson grew, which is nice… Polk just grew nicely! As did Burgess.

But this draft is all about the shower who boomed….wow Curtis! Is Curtis going to be my Maumau in a few years? Is Swager going to be my Grogg as he drops? He dropped to 62/62 from 68/68 last year. Good stuff!

[Abe Sargent]

I don’t have money for extensions I only have 5.7 mill for new players and I want to hold that for injury stuff.

Let’s look at my rookies!

https://i.ibb.co/Lz6dcmJ/Jets-370.png


Here’s Darby after a bit of a bust. Two Cs drafted after Darby are better than him. Ah well, he’s fine. Not major issues with him save that that only ok run blocking.

https://i.ibb.co/z8WMmc5/Jets-371.png

Here’s Swager! As you can see he’s okay running and less than okay catching save for 3rd down. I like where he wound up and could see him carrying the brick if needed in a couple of years.

https://i.ibb.co/KjTCk9M/Jets-372.png

Here’s Davidson for you! As you can see…he’s alright after booming in camp and preseason. He’s also fine as my starter at OT. He’s well rounded, which you want for a, OT that’s blocking less and getting the stud DEs.


Now let’s show you who you really want to see…

https://i.ibb.co/vLQkbtT/Jets-373.png

This is Tom Brady…..er…..I mean Efrain Curtis (note the round drafted). Dude looks good! If he grows into a solid starter he could be my new starter after Maumau drops in a few years, as he’s an 8th year vet. He’ll also be ideal injury or 4th quarter relief for Maumau. He’s also 4 pot better than Maumau…

[Abe Sargent]

The Green Page?

Curtis #1, Polk, Swager and Davidson all on it!

Rookie Investigation

QB – Curtis is the best. We have one with 54 and that’s it

RB – We have a 76 hoss, a 66 pot and 64 pot and Swager at 63 is 4th. Then 6 in the 50s

FB – 2 in the 50s

TE – 68, 3 50s. The one I was looking at with the 2.28 spot busted to 42 pot, so that was a nice miss.

WR – 2 in 70s, 3 in 60s, 8 in 50s. A pretty deep crop. Our UFAs didn’t hit 50 pot, but they are both good returners to replace Robinson, Cathey and Starks.

Ridgeway – 43/59 PR; 30/43 KR
Rabe – 45/56 PR, 39/49 KR

They aren’t amazing like Starks/Robinson, but I cannot afford the latter and the former is too old.

OC - Darby was the 2nd OC taken and the 4th best one in the draft…. 1 80s, 3 70s, the 83 one was on the board when we drafted Darby and that was a missed opportunity…

OG – 92, 85, 70, 5 60s, 8 50s. This was a top heavy draft. The first two were not on the board at 1.28, but the third wasn’t taken until 1.31 so we could have walked away with a stud OG.

OT – 4 60s, 4 50s. Very similar. Davidson is tied for 3rd best OT in the draft

DLine – After booming DE Polk’s 72 pot in the 3rd best in the draft. 4 70s, 6 60s, 4 50s. That’s a palindrome of talent.

LB – 2 70s, 3 60s, 5 50s, light LB corps, Burgess was 5th best.

DB – 73, 67, 9 50s. Not a great draft for DBs.

Good stuff!

Stats

Offensive

Passing

QB Maumau – 339 of 510, 3932, 23:7, 98.8

A big down year for our Maumau from last year’s high! But he was fine!


Rushing

RB Grogg – 395 for 1291, 3.27 ypc, 9 scores
QB Maumau – 68 for 449, 4 scores

Grogg was barely 2nd in yards, and 4th in TDs.


Receiving

https://i.ibb.co/pRMmXNP/Jets-374.png


Another down year for Skudris. Prior led my team in grabs, but Skudris yards and they tied with 7 TDs each. This was a horrible year catching for Grogg and Robinson. Only Rose was up and he was pretty nice!


Blocking

https://i.ibb.co/yqH6By9/Jets-375.png

Let me ask you a serious question…is this the worst year blocking I’ve ever had? No one hit 30 KRBs. Horrible %? Big sack numbers? This wasn’t good…


Special Teams

K Di Pietro – 33 of 37, Long of 48, 42 of 43

Just 4 missed FGs and one missed PAT? Great job!

P Ellison – 103 punts, 45.0 avg, 37 in 20

Ellison was just okay this year…

Returns – Robinson – 2 KR RET TDs!

Phelan led my team with 22 special teams tackles…

[Abe Sargent]

Defensive


https://i.ibb.co/2sZFhcr/Jets-376.png

Carr led my team in tackles with 106, which was nice. Dorn led my team with a lower sack amount but he still got All Pro which I care about. Hudson grabbed 8.5 sacks and was 2nd on the team. Russell just 5.5 needs to step it up. Spencer just 4.5 needs to do likewise… With 5 FF, Dorn led my team.


Pass Coverage

https://i.ibb.co/27hp8mw/Jets-377.png


Carr led my team in picks and pasdef and had a strong year in the coverage. Uribe was 2nd in pasdef with 14 and Ferguson and Phelan were 2nd in picks with 3 each. Good stuff lads!

Team Awards

Off. Player of the Year – RB Rodolfo Grogg – Was MVP for my SB run, and had great year otherwise with a rare All Pro. Good stuff Grogg!

Def. Player of the Year – S Colin Carr – He led my team in three pertinent stats and got an All Pro while doing so. Good job Carr!

Special Teams Player of the Year – K Marty Di Pietro – He only missed 4 kicks and one PAT all year long! Good stuff Di Pietro!

We draft 32nd and I interview 8 DBacks and others to see what I can find there. There are many studs but I doubt a Carr will fall to us. Again…

https://i.ibb.co/bJPrRdk/Jets-378.png

Here’s my roster and cap situation. As you can see, a few of my players have moved – Poock dropped as did Kristosik. I cannot extend anyone or sign my RFAs until I free up cash

I have two folks I’ll cut to do that. I cut QB Roque, and DE Russell. I’ll start my rookie stud at DE this year and save the Russell cash. Just one Al Pro in 5th years? I saved more than 40 mill with those moves

I sign my RFAs except for C Rabe, my P, K, and LS.

I have 35 mill for new players after those transactions

Now who do I want to extend?

Kristosik is on hold until post draft as he’s never been that good for picking.

Ditto Mauriello and Fowler that could be replaced. I do extend Poock for 26 mill 3 years.

England wants a massive 93 mill, 5 years, we’ll hold off.

Actually Fowler only wants 18 mill for 3 years so I do it.

Do I want to chase any of my UFAs? Nope the two I’d be happy to bring back in Ingram and Robinson are too pricey.

Week 5 – Robinson to Buffalo; Ingram to New England

Week 7 – Jackson to New Orleans

Week 10 – Dunlap to Portland

Week 11 – Starks to Seattle; Lowe to Richmond

See at the draft!

[Abe Sargent]

The 2073 NFL Amateur Draft

Picking first is Chicago and my guess is they’ll select stud QB Gino Gray and…they do so! I’ll see you in 31

Who do I like at 1.32?

All of my DBs are off the board, as are all of the O Line I targeted…crazy…

OC Emmitt Marek – Stud OC, I don’t need one so no interviews, top player on the board.
WLB Jon Alston – 5th best player and top OLB on the board. Looks pretty good. I wasn’t targeting LB here but with Ingram leaving I do have an open spot in the middle.
OG Eric Shaw – Top OG on the board, not great in run blocking
DE John Dennis – Holy…crap…you wanna replace Russell? 3rd DE on the board but looks nasty good.

Here is Alston and Dennis

https://i.ibb.co/kBtJckg/Jets-379.png

Here is Alston, and as you can see, the dude looks pretty good right? Right! Not great at pass rush, but sexy elsewhere, would be a good ILB in a 3-4. '

https://i.ibb.co/2qZwpFT/Jets-380.png


Here’s the great Dennis as well! So who would you go for?

[Abe Sargent]

Dennis is better but Alston is more of a need so I grab Alston…


2.32 – How about SS J.J. Mapes? TE Richard Lester? OG Orlando Morrison? I do Mapes. I like his picking.


3.32 – Hmmmmmmmm….who do I like here? OG Rob Gonzalez looks fine. I grab him.


4.32 – WR Nate Cooper? He looks like a grower… Sorry he was taken right before me by Baltimore… I take the BAP WLB Isaac Adams.


5.32 – ILB Jon Shepherd?


6.32 – How about OC Grant Reese? He seems to have fallen and I need a backup OC.


7.32 – Who moves me? How about RB Abel Fuller? He looks like a grower.

Rookie Lookie #1

1.32 – WLB Jon Alston, Stanford, 31/71
2.32 - SS JJ Mapes, Houston, 29/63
3.32 - OG Rob Gonzalez, Auburn, 22/51
4.32 – WLB Isaac Adams, Bethune Cookman, 23/56
5.32 - ILB Jon Shepherd, Mississippi, 26/55
6.32 – OC Grant Reese, Brigham Young, 28/71
7.32 – RB Abel Fuller, Washington State, 32/43

There we go!

[Abe Sargent]

I have 50 so I make offers to these rookies

UFAs

TE Korey Greer, 22/40; 25/39
C Walt Blades, 12/60; 17/57

[Abe Sargent]

The 2073 NFL Preseason

I move Alston to SILB.

I hand out rests and we’ll move some starters around. I will start Mapes at nickel and Alston at SILB.

Week 3 – Buffalo – We win 31-13

Week 4 - Augusta – We lose 24-27

Week 5 – At Pittsburgh – We thump them 31-3.

We are 3-1.


Rookie Lookie #3

Both of my top two folks busted. Nasty! Adams dropped 13. This was one of my worst drafts ever…

UFAs

WR Victor Gornitsky, 27/44; 27/43; 27/40
TE Korey Greer, 22/40; 25/39; 24/34
C Walt Blades, 12/60; 17/57; 12/45
Cb Leslie Carter, 14/44; 18/43; 17/34

All busts here as well

I cut DE Willie Sinclair…

[Abe Sargent]

Grogg has dropped to 58/58. Who am I starting at RB? Let’s look!

https://i.ibb.co/R72TB8T/Jets-381.png


Here’s Grogg


https://i.ibb.co/mBXtW0c/Jets-382.png

Here’s Swager. Grogg is better at speed, power inside, hole, speed to outside, and pickup. Overall he is the better runner so I’ll keep him in at my starter this year.

[Abe Sargent]

Extensions!

I extend…

Mauriello
England
Kristosik


Uribe who has 2 years left and an All Pro.

And that’s hit!

Rookies?

https://i.ibb.co/LpFJg4m/Jets-383.png

Another LB bust… I pulled him and won’t start him at SILB anymore I handed it to Burgess.

https://i.ibb.co/TWv5Dxd/Jets-384.png

Another key bust. I was hoping that Mapes would be my new Kristosik and I wouldn’t have to resign him, but that’s not happening now…

[Abe Sargent]

On the Green Page…None


Rookie Investigation

QB – This was a two QB draft with one 73 and another 68 and none at 50+.

RB – 1 60s, 5 50s, and Abel is one in the 50+ area!

FB – 1 50

TE – 1 50

WR – 61, 5 50s

Wow for skill positions this draft!

C – Marek, on the board, wound up 52/85, top OC. Another two in the 70s, and ours is the 3rd best

OG – 2 70s; 3 60s; 11 50s

OT – 80, 62, 7 50s

DL – Dennis whom we were looking at wound up with a 79 pot! Man I should have grabbed him. 84, 3 70s, 6 60s, 9 50s

LB – 2 70s, the best LB was on the board when we grabbed Alston and was a 77 pot… that makes the Alston pick twice as bad. 1 60, 7 50s

DB – 1 80, 4 70s, 4 60s, 7 50s This was a deep draft but we wound up with a bust, which was a missed opportunity…

Ah well…

[Abe Sargent]

Stats


Offensive


Passing

QB Maumau – 293 of 464, 3557, 20:5, 96.5 rating

With his injuries? Understandable!


Rushing

RB Grogg – 343 of 1420, 4.14 ypc, 13 scores
QB Maumau – 62 for 427, 6 scores

Grogg was 3rd in yards and 1st in scores. Maumau had a big score season rushing that ball.


Receiving

https://i.ibb.co/0hwRPQH/Jets-385.png

As you can see Skudris led my team in everything this year, and he was 6th in yards and 2nd in scores. Not sure why he got All Pro. Prior has had better years but I ain;t turning away a long overdue All pro. See how good Rose was this year? More yards that Grogg, and 2 scores too. I can’t ever recall a FB with a 500+ yard season!

Blocking

https://i.ibb.co/C0fLpYV/Jets-386.png

Our Blocking is back! 3 with 30+ KRB seasons, much better block 5, an All Pro with 43 KRB and 8 pancakes, good stuff team!

Special Teams
 
K Di Pietro – 40 of 46, Long of 51, 44 of 45 PAT

Another solid season by my K!

P Ellison – 77 punts, 45.9 avg, 32 in 20

Meh

0 RET for TDs – expected without Starks and Robinson…

Carr led my team 2ith 21 special teams tackles

[Abe Sargent]

Defensive

https://i.ibb.co/MZKNCNP/Jets-387.png

Carr also led my team with 106 tackles and added a sack! 13.5 studly sacks for Dorn was the league leader by a half sack! Good stuff! Spencer finally came into his own, and his 10.5 sacks were 6th most in the league for any position and top among DTs! Nasty stuff Spencer! Uribe another All Pro and the 3rd year pro grabbed me 8.5 sacks and that 3rd on my team, and he had the most sacks in the league for LBs! Sophomore DE Polk’s 7.0 sacks in his first starting season is fine, although for a guy in his 70s I’d like to see more. But I’m fine with it for now. Hudson’s sack number was way too low at 2.5! Nasty year for sacks! Did you notice that CB Freestone netted two sacks? Uribe led my team in 4 FF


Pass Coverage

https://i.ibb.co/vPZWwZT/Jets-388.png


This was a very down year for us in picks… where was Carr? Rookie nickelback Mapes rocked 2 picks and 5 pasdef.

Staff Draft

We make no changes to our staff. We missed out on a much better HC, DC and OC, but no changes to winning football teams.

We are 16 mill over the cap and I need 36 mill for new players, so we will not need a franchise tag. I have 5 UFAs heading into FA Period #1


Ready?

[Abe Sargent]

The 2074 NFL FA Period #1

We are drafting 1.28. We need more dbacks after Mapes busted, as well as a stud LB if there’s one out there for consideration and some improved O Lineery at OT. As well as a 3rd WR. I do some interviews hoping…


Alright, time to look at my roster

https://i.ibb.co/ZBL2wwj/Jets-390.png

Here are my last year deals of note and my cap situation….

The easiest way for me to deal with this cap is to cut Grogg and start Swager. I cut the old man and save 31 mill, which almost gets me home.

I extend Rose and Skudris… because Skudris dropped in ability he’ll sign for a 20 mill cut this year and a much safer cap hit next year, and I freed up a half mill with Rose. Now I have 16.3 mill for new players and I sign my RFAs. I do not extend my RFA TEs that are really bad. Or CB Carter.

I have 10.8 mill after my RFAS join us and we have 44 on my roster.

I extend Hudson and save 10 mill. I extend Prior by another year.

I want to extend Spencer, Blanchard and Freestone, but two are going to hold off and the other is too much for my budget right now. I’ll wait until post draft to see where we wind up…

Week 6 – DT Atkins signs with Chicago

Week 7 – Grogg heads to Detroit.

Week 11 – MLB Grant heads to Jacksonville; DT Oliver to Tampa Bay

Draft?

[Abe Sargent]

The 2074 NFL Amateur Draft


Picking first are the NE Pats, and my guess is they’ll grab… CB Nicky Wolfe an absolute stud and the best player in the draft and…got it! That’s who they went with! Now let’s head 27 picks…


The 1.28 arrives. Who do I like here?

FB Monty May – Stud, As Scouted, top player on the board. If I hadn’t signed Rose… could I take him, convert to a TE, and then have a 2nd strong TE?
C Timothy Randle – 2nd best player on the board, stud OC – I have two studs on my roster at that spot
TE Warren Roberts – 4th best player on the board, okay, not great, poor blocking
DE Tim Cleland – 5th best player on the board, okay bars not as good as last year’s DE here.
MLB Zachery Andersen – 6th best player, good bars, As Scouted
OT Everett Compton – Top OT on the board, Hard to Read
SS Billy Neil – Top S on the board, very underrated

There’s a lot of qualified players there! Let’s look at four….

https://i.ibb.co/jRmz5Xg/Jets-391.png


Here’s Neill. He’s bars are okay for a 2nd round DB,but very underrated makes me more interested in him than normal, right?

https://i.ibb.co/3sdGx86/Jets-392.png

Here’s the run blocking stud OT Compton, who looks good, and is Hard to Read. Underrated? Very? Even As Scouted, I’d lean more here, but he still looks good in the bars.

https://i.ibb.co/WphPM93/Jets-393.png

Here’s the stud-ish Andersen. He’s pretty good looking and As Scouted. Worst at pass rush. He’s a solid MLB who I could easily move inside alongside of Fowler.

https://i.ibb.co/mqk0mRB/Jets-394.png

And finally, here’s the May of Monty Bay. He’s a strong FB that is As Scouted that I could move to TE and replace Prior when he retires, as Prior is in his 10th year and 33 years old and could retire anytime, so getting a FB into TE now could develop for a year or two and then replace Prior when he heads out. I also need to come away with a TE or two from this draft and UFA area, so May would help with that.

I like them all! Which one would you do?


Most need

Current 4th DB – Phelan, 61/61 or 66/66 Freestone if I cannot sign him.

TE – Prior, 70/70

SILB Burgess – 52/63

OT 60/63 Kody Davidson

All are in the low 60s save for Prior, but he’ll drop soon,

Who would you take?????????????????????

I don’t know, let me think about it….


We have a great surfeit of options here at the 1.28!!!!!!!!!

[Abe Sargent]

Hmmm…

There are also reasons against each of these players

OT? Hard to Read – best bars, biggest gamble

SS? Poor bars for 1.28, very underrated might not mean much. Bigger gamble

MLB? Worst position of need, although we are a 3-4.

FB/TE – Lowest need of the four, as we have studs at both, although I could do the FB into TE and then grow him as my #2 TE.

The SS would let me not spend 100+ on Freestone this year… it’s the best salary cap pick. (Or I could cut Phelan and sign Freestone who’s younger and better). The FB/TE is probably too early for that when I have other options…



I want to take SS, because it’s the best salary cap decision. And if he grows? He could really be worth it! But that’s too much of a risk given the low starting point. If Compton were As Scouted or better I’d take him. But Hard to read is too much of a risk… so instead, let’s go for less risk, and better bars with May or Andersen…

Hmmm…

Actually…have I talked myself into Compton? Even if he busts he’s still strong….

Let’s take a risk on Compton.


2.28 – Who fell? Who do I like here? DT Nickolas Sinclair? I need a 2nd DT. Is Andersen still on the board? Is TE Benjamin Shannon still on the board? Nope they just went WR Maurice Hudson is a reach but he’s okay. I go Hudson. I go reach over the better player as the WRs aren't that good in this draft.


3.28 – FB Jason Pearson? There’s another stud FB that fell here. Could I grab him? Is WR Jessie Bruce still on the board? I go FB, want to see him?

https://i.ibb.co/nrfPFv6/Jets-395.png

This guy is still on the board!


4.28 – DE Camden Wolf? CB Ivan Clinton? I do Clinton. He looks like a grower.


5.28 - OG Santiago McCollam looks like a solid option and another grower.


6.28 – SILB Hayden Clemons?


7.28 – TE Victor Hill? He looks like a grower as well.

I move Pearson to TE

Rookie Lookie #1

1.28 – OT Everett Compton, Jackson State, 28/75

[Abe Sargent]

The 2074 NFL Preseason

I hand out 8 deactives and make my depth chart. I start Compton, Hudson at 3rd WR, Pearson at #2 TE, Clinton at CB, McCollam at OG to give them all experience.

If Compton holds I can cut OT England and save some cash.

Clinton is a stud at PR and he’ll start there


Week 2 – Jacksonville – We win 24-10

Week 3 – At Baltimore – We win 33-17

Week 4 – Houston – We win 20-3

Week 5 – At Cleveland – We win 44-24.

We go 4-0 in the preseason


Rookie Lookie #3

1.28 – OT Everett Compton, Jackson State, 28/75; 32/75; 34/69
2.28 – WR Maurice Hudson, Kentucky, 27/57; 31/57; 33/58
3.28 – TE Jason Pearson, Charleston Southern, 34/70; 39/71; 39/69
4.28 – CB Ivan Clinton, California, 54/63; 62/66; 68/77
5.28 – OG Santiago McCollam, WVU BABAY!!!!!!!!!!!!, 23/58, 27/60; 31/68
6.28 – SILB Hayden Clemons, Kent State, 18/55; 23/53; 23/58
7.28 – TE Victor Hill, East Carolina, 23/42; 27/42; 29/49

Compton a bust, which is sad but not unexpected with the Hard to Read factor. Hudson and Pearson mostly stayed the same. Hello Clinton! Nasty! McCollam a big boom. Clemons bounced back. Hill rose as expected although not as much as I did so. Not bad, despite the fall of Compton.

UFAs

MLB Alexis Ricketts, 23/56; 28/51; 28/49
DT Ike Malone, 31/50; 33/49; 33/46
DE Freddie Zeigler, 16/44; 21/43; 19/37

I cut WR Victor Gornitsky

Starters?

What do I do with McCollam?

McCollam – Run blocking – 26/89; pass block, 14/48; str, 42, 70/88 end

Mauriello – Run – 79, pass – 40, str 68, end 48

Poock – Run - 83, pass 77, str 33, end 38

McCollam has a better run blocking and pass block than Mauriello and worse str. I move over to McCollam and leave Mauriello on the bench which we did during the preseason.

I cut England and save 12 mill on the cap. I sign an undrafted UFA Og named Ben Wolsic, 22/47

We will keep starting McCollam, Clinton, Compton.

[Abe Sargent]

Extensions

I want to extend Spencer and… with my freed up money from England I can. I have 9.4 mill left for new players

Rookies!

I’ll skip the 1st rounder you’ve already seen and the FB/TE you saw

https://i.ibb.co/PhRvrtT/Jets-396.png

Here’s my 2nd rounder Maurice Hudson, a solid 58 pot guy who probably was overpicked, but need forced my hand. He’s streaky and good in some things and horrible in others. He’ll start as my #3 player and then move up to #2 after Blanchard leaves in the offseason since I am too close to the cap to keep him.

https://i.ibb.co/6w8xfBg/Jets-397.png


Here’s my booming Clinton! He’s studly and good everywhere other than punching hard and to a lesser degree picks. I hope he plays like it! See his PR ability?

[Abe Sargent]

On the Green Page? We have… Clinton and Compton.

Rookie Investigation

QB – This was a 1 QB draft with one at 66 pot

RB – 3 60s, 6 50s.

FB – Monty May wound up 68 pot that we were considering in the 1st round. 2 50s.

TE – After moving Pearson to TE, he is the best TE in the draft at 69 pot. One 65, 5 50s

WR – 2 60s, 6 50s. We have the 4th best WR in the draft at 2.28.

OC – The stud on the board at 1/28 wound up 55/86 and being taken in the 3rd round. 2 60s, 3 50s

OG – 80, 5 60s, 4 50s, OG McCollam was 2nd best in the draft.

OT – 80, 74, 70, 69,64, 8 50s. Deep OT draft and Compton was 4th best in the draft. The 2nd best was on the board when we took Compton and that was a bad pick.

D Line – 1 80s, 2 70s, 5 60s, 4 50s.

LB – 1 80, 1 70, 1 60, 12 50s. Andersen wound up 68 and the 3rd best LB in the draft. But grabbing a 68 pot wouldn’t have been worth it, that’s only 5 better than my starter. Clemons in the 7th best LB in the draft.

DB – 3 70s, 5 60s, 3 50s – Very symmetrical numbers. We were 2nd best in the draft at DB

Good stuff!

[Abe Sargent]

Stats

Offensive

Passing

QB Maumau – 343 of 493, 3839, 26:6, 105.1 rating

I’m surprised Maumau did so well in the awards. He was 1st in rating, 6th in yards, 3rd in TDs, and that doesn’t sound like the top prize, and I think he robbed some folks of a better prize.


Rushing

RB Swager – 375 for 1355, 3.61 ypc, 11 scores.
QB Maumau – 70 for 365, 5 scores

Swager was 2nd in yards, and scores…not sure why he was first in All Pro, maybe rec yards? Maumau’s ypc dropped this year.


Receiving

https://i.ibb.co/N2Cdpx8/Jets-398.png


I think Skudris may be getting to show his age. He had almost a third more catches than Prior but less than 80 yards for it and his yards per catch were way below Prior. Prior a rock of my team. Rose was really down this year. Rookie Hudson had more grabs than Blanchard but fewer yards. Swager added 543 yards to get almost 1.9k yards from scrimmage.


Blocking


https://i.ibb.co/w6WTzpg/Jets-399.png


Darby led my team in KRB this year, and Poock was down after his All Pro season last year, I hope he’s not just a one year wonder. Wow Compton, 13 KRB in 16 games? You sucked this year…12 sacks allowed? Yuck. This wasn’t as good as last year across the board.

Special Teams

K Di Pietro – 40 of 42, Long of 46, 47 of 49

Just 2 missed FGs and 2 PATs? Nasty good! Hopefully this is the first of many long overdue All Pros for the man.

P Ellison – 87 punts, 45.5 avg, 29 in 20

A bad in 20 % and just an okay average. He’s just fine again.

We had ZERO returns for scores this year

Spencer led my team with 22 special teams tackles

Carr and Uribe tied for 94 tackles each. Dorn’s 14.5 sacks led the league by 2.5 and Uribe was 2nd on my team tied with 9.5 with Polk who is looking better and better as a Russell replacement. Uribe led all LBs in sacks by 1.5. Hudson improved on his dismal sack numbers last year with 6.5, and Spencer was adequate with 6 although I want more from a 91/91 DT. Burgess and Phelan lead my team and the league with 6 FF each.

This is my 400th image in this dynasty!


Pass Coverage

https://i.ibb.co/3rTgsYf/Jets-401.png

Carr came back from his 0 pick year last year to record my team leading 5 picks, and Clinton did a great job with 5 picks and 9 pasdef. Freestone was good as my nickel and rocked 3 picks and 7 pasdef. Phelan led my team with a nice 16 pasdef.

There you are!

[Abe Sargent]

Now I just finished my 10th year with the Grizzlies and my 3rd Super Bowl…do I move on?

Normally…yes, I think that would make sense, right? But I have an idea for a new plan…

I call it the Curtis Plan.

Curtis is 58/80 at the end of his 3rd year as a pro. Next year is the final year of his deal and the he’s a free agent. What if I went out as a new GM at the same time as Curtis? If I were staying with the same team I’d cut Maumau in the offseason and sign Curtis for cheaper and move on. But…that’s not what I’m doing here so let’s play one more year as the Grizzlies, try to win my 4th Super Bowl with a team for the first time in this dynasty, and then next year I’ll move on so I can sign Curtis to my new team.

[Abe Sargent]

I end the season and I score a…54

Staff Draft

No changes

I have no changes needed


On my roster we have 7 UFAs, but I don’t sign any of them. I have 11 mill for new players heading into FA so I won’t be able to franchise any of my players.

[Abe Sargent]

NFL 2075 FA Period #1

We are drafting 1.32 and I scout out possible players all over my roster. I interview some WRs as Blanchard left as well as other players at LB, TE, and other places on my roster.

I sign my RFAs that I care too.

https://i.ibb.co/JRJNZkN/Jets-402.png

Here is my roster of last year after my signings, and you can see my roster at 43 and 6.3 mill available.

I sign LS and K.

I sign Maumau to a one year extension and drop his cap hit to 65 mill and we save 13 mill

I sign Prior to a another one year extension as well and the cap drops a few mill.

I must extend Dorn and Carr.

Poock will jump up too much in value to resign. He wants almost 100 mill for an OG that’s not that good. I have McCollam and Mauriello I’ll be fine

Fowler wants a big jump in cost and I won’t chase him either. I sign Swager for 92 mill, 4 years

I sign Darby for 4 years, 66 mill

I am out of money and down to 3.4 mill. No more extensions for rookies like Davidson and Polk and Burgess.

Week 2 – Blanchard heads to DC, Freestone to NYJ

Week 6 – Lash signs with NYG

Who’s ready for some drafting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My last one of the Grizzlies!

[Abe Sargent]

The 2075 NFL Amateur Draft

Picking 1.1 is…Chicago and I think they’ll go with a stud RB ranked 7.1… Harrison Adamo. Do they? Nope! They go with a stud and top CB on the board. Adamo goes…1.6 to Raleigh. Late!

The 1.32 pick arrives. I had four solid options at the 1.28 last year…who do I like this time?

OC Cyron Czycz _ the best player on the board
SLB Miguel Clements -2nd best player on the board, Hard to Read
WLB Brett Rowlette – 3rd best player on the board, Hard to Read
DE Jeffrey Molczyk – Top D Line on the board….looks great with the bars
OT Shannon Lindley – Top T on the board – hard to read

A WR I was targeting fell off the board.

I’m not going OC or OT, but I could go DE and replace Polk, or go with a quality LB.

Let’s look at the middle three.

https://i.ibb.co/4FmQLkc/Jets-403.png

Here’s Clements. A Solid looking SLB for the gaming fun times. Not bad, but just okay at coverage and pass rush strength.

https://i.ibb.co/vP8f3w7/Jets-404.png

Rowlette has a similar set of strengths and weakness but slightly worse bars.

https://i.ibb.co/LpSWdMs/Jets-405.png

Here is Molczyk! As you can see he’s good at run D and rushing and play D and hitting. He’s the best player of these three but the worst need as I could move my LBs.


Who would you go with? All three are gambles, two Hard to Read and one not interviewed…

[Abe Sargent]

I am going with Molczyk. Why? Polk is leaving, and he’s the best player of the three and I want to give this team a great gift.

2.32 – WR Graham Bacon? I need a new Blanchard… Yup!


3.32 – OT Louis Hitchcock?


4.32 – WLB Edgardo Andersen?


5.32 – RG Darren Jarvis? DT Cesar Volz? I do d line.


6.32 - Hmmm…I do BAP with C Erick Tatum? Nope…SLB Kelly Saide.


7.32 – Demetrius McGinest SS? He’s a grower


Rookie Lookie #1

1.32 - DE Jeffrey Molczyk, Houston, 32/68

Here is my DE after everything getting ready for his first year. He’s not as god as I hoped, but he didn’t bust and that’s fine by me!

Here’s my booming WR I grabbed at the end of the 2nd round. Nice and well rounded and solid. I like him.

[Abe Sargent]

On the Green Page? Both of these rookies!

Rookie Investigation

QB – Just one 50+ at 52. Wow.

RB – 60, 53, 51, that’s it

FB – 2 60s,2 50s

TE – 1 70, 4 50s

WR – 5 60s, 2 50s. We have the 3rd best WR after Bacon boomed.

OC – 2 70s, both the ones I mentioned in the draft held in the low 70s, 6, that’s it for 50+

OG – 85 – best player in the draft, 70, 3 60s, 6 50s

OT – 1 80s, 1 60s, 7 50s, ours is the 5th best.

D Line – 6 60s, our 69 makes our DE the best D Line in the draft; 10 50s.

LB – Clements and Rowlette tied for 70 pot and are the best in the draft, and my guy is69, so they all wound up at the same space. 3 60s, 7 50s

DB – 6 60s, 5 50s. Not that bad but not that great.

Ready for the final draft of the Grizzlies? Yeah!

All Pro 2nd Team

Uribe repeated as DPOTY! A down year for my All Pros.

[Abe Sargent]

Stats

Offensive

Passing

QB Maumau – 326 of 511, 3655, 23:8, 93.5

A very down year for Maumau. Very down. He’s 34 years old…is he showing his age?

Rushing

RB Swager – 372 for 1403 yards, 3.77 ypc, 8 scores
QB Maumau - 76 for 561, 3 scores

Not a bad year for Swager, but he was 2nd in yards and 5th in scores. Maumau got his ypc back up.


Receiving

https://i.ibb.co/SNThVpj/Jets-408.png

Swager led my team in grabs and scores, and he had almost 2k in yards from scrimmage. Prior was solid in grabs and yards and scores. Skudris was fourth in a lot of stuff. He was injured with some doubtful during the year and clearly lost some receptions.


Blocking

https://i.ibb.co/xzqV8qH/Jets-409.png

Another bad year for the blocking, as you can see. Not great with no player at 30+ KRB or high block % or lower sacks allowed or high pancakes…

Special Teams

K Di Pietro – 34 of 38, Long of 45, 39 of 41 PAT

4 missed FGs and 2 missed PATs is very consistent. Again.

P Ellison – 95 booms, 46.1 avg, 27 in 20

Another Meh year…

Ivan Clinton – 2 PR RET TDS
Abel Fuller - 1 KR RET TD

Phelan led our team and the league with 33 special teams tackles.

[Abe Sargent]

Defensive


https://i.ibb.co/VgXd6nt/Jets-410.png

Hello Uribe! He grabbed me a personal best 11.5 sacks and led my team in tackles, and was nasty good. Dorn’s 14 sacks were… 2nd best in the league and just a half sack back from the league leader who was…Xavier Russell! Uribe was the 3rd best player in the league and the best LB in sacks. Spencer’s 6 sacks are fine again, but again, I’d like to get better. Polk’s numbers feel underwhelming as he got 5 sacks in two back to back games and I was expecting more. 8.5 sacks for Hudson! We ruled in sacks this year, like we have been… Uribe and Carr led my team with 4 FF each.

Another down year for my picks, and pasdef, Uribe led my team with 2 picks and 10 pasdef. Good stuff!

Team Awards

Off. Player of the Year – RB Cristian Swager – Got another All Pro, looking good Swager!

Def. Player of the Year - SLB Gavin Uribe – He led my team in picks, pasdef, tackles, and was 2nd in sacks and 3rd in the league in sacks. How could anyone else be here?

Special Teams Player of the Year – CB Ivan Clinton – 2 PR RET TDs is nasty!

Rookie of the Year – WR Graham Bacon – 32 for 406, 4 scores. Not too bad, but we’ll need better he sort of won it by default.

Heart Award – SS Devan Phelan – 33 special teams tackles? Nasty stuff!

The 2076 NFL Offseason


Hall of Fame

QB Wayne Kennedy – 1.1 pick, 5 Rings, 2 league MVPS, tons of awards, bear of the Rattlesnakes and one of their triumvirate of terror

WR Heath Watson – 1.1 pick, 6 Rings, 4 All Pros, another of the triumvirate of terror for my Snakes.

RB Lester Brookins – 2.30 pick, 3 Rings, 3 league MVP, tons of other awards, picked up the challenge for my Snakes, and did very well with it!


Retirements of Note

Grizzlies

None

Rattlesnakes

None


Other Abe’s Boys

WLB Corwin Lowther - Played for Snakes and Grizzlies, drafted 1.30 in the 2064 draft, 2 Rings

FS Eugene Moore – Drafted 6.32 in 2062 by Richmond, 2 Rings as well


I move to Raleigh!

They do not have any Super Bowls during our lonnnnng dynasty…let’s change that!

Do I want to try and move Raleigh? They’ve been here since…33 and they only had 20k in their stadium last year. If I am going to have a low attendance, let’s go somewhere fun..,like my home state of WV!

Raleigh –

https://i.ibb.co/2sdwLhM/Jets-412.png

Here’s my current city, and we are large in population, have a good growth, and Carolina Panthers are not too close. It’s not a bad city comparatively.


So where could I move to?

https://i.ibb.co/YRd8FcV/Jets-413.png

Here’s Huntington WV, which is also growing, Atlantic, and looks good.

https://i.ibb.co/fnTtr9Z/Jets-414.png

Now here is the capital of the city, with a bigger population and lower poverty level, and such.

Let’s aim for Charleston. I put in a stadium plan for outdoor/natural grass, 50k, 10k club seats and 200 boxes


Staff Draft

We draft 32nd

Head Coach – Our current HC is Cory Brady and he’s not that good. I hire the best HC available with a suitability of…actually…he’s the best. The others were taken, I keep him.

OC – Our current OC is Caleb Corbin who loves Smashmouth football and is the highest suitability guy on the table. He works well with the O Line. He’s well rounded and the best available pick on the board. To get to the best balanced OC I drop 13 suitability. I keep Caleb Corbin to see what I can do with this style of football.

DC – Our DC Retired. I hire the best one which is… Connor Beattie, well rounded, 47 years old, likes the 3-4 Eagle and the D Line.

AC – Our AC is Kirk Burnett. He’s my best so I don’t make any changes.

SC – Our SC James Holliday and he is also the best on the board.

Just one change made

I don’t offer any franchise picks so I’ll see you at FA!

[Abe Sargent]

The 2076 NFL FA Period #1

We pick 1.2 so I scout stud RB and WR for my team since I am bidding for QB Efrain Curtis. I am smashmouth so my preference is a stud RB. We have one top WR and RB but neither are the true stud that I want. There are two solid QBs at the top of the draft that the #1 team may want, and I interview each. Then I interview players that might be available 2.2.

I review my current roster. Any Abe’s Boys on it? Nope! I cut everyone.

I make offers for these Abe’s Boys

QB Curtis – 4 years, 62 mill
TE Deron Prior – 1 year, 27 mill
OG Troy Poock – 4 years, 75 mill
OG Gavin Mauriello – 3 years, 25 mill
RT Kody Davidson – 5 years, 110 mill
LT Andre England – 4 years, 36 mill
P Owen Ellison – 4 years, 47 mill
K OJ Stewart (was an UFA for me in year one of Grizzlies if you’ll recall) – 2 years, 8 mill
DE Bucky Polk – 3 years, 97 mill
WILB Kai Fowler – 3 years, 27 mill
SILB Thurman Burgess – 3 years, 40 mill
CB Paul Bowman – 3 years, 26 mill


Ready?

Week 2 – Poock, England and Curtis sign with us! I up my bid for Polk by 10 mill to go 5 mill over a team outbidding us.

Week 3 – We sign Mauriello and Polk. I increase Davidson;s deal to go over someone outbidding us.

Week 4 – Davidson signs

Week 5 – Burgess and Bowman join us

Week 6 – Mauriello arrives

Week 7 – Prior comes in

Week 9 – Ellison comes

Week 11 – Stewart joins us

We sign every target!

See you at the 2nd pick in the draft!!!

[Abe Sargent]

We had a save snafu (I hit autodraft and save again) and am rebooting the offseason. No changes to staff, and my UFA does not have Prior and they franshied Polk, but it does have Swager, whom I make an offer for despite two great RBs at the top of this draft because he's not a risk.

[Abe Sargent]

The 2076 NFL Amateur Draft

Picking 1st is the Dolphins and I think they’ll take the top RB on the board with a 6.5 rating…they went QB instead.

Who do I like here?

CB Winston Riley – Top player on the board, Underrated
C Bryan Wolfe – 5th best player on the board, Very Underrated, a bit high for a C but the only major O Line I need.
WILB Roberto Benton – Top LB on the draft, Overrated, red flag
WLB Les Hampton – 2nd best LB on the board, Underrated
WR Trey Birkholz - The top WR is rated way back at 5.6 and is As Scouted.

I need my triumvirate, but I don’t have a good WR here to take a shot with. My favorite are Hampton, Riley, and Trey Birkholz who is need but not value.

https://i.ibb.co/4SsKGh7/Jets-417.png

Here’s Birkholz. As you can see he’s not great, but he’d suit. I doubt he plays as well as a 1.2 normally would expect to do so.

https://i.ibb.co/T2dQ5nF/Jets-418.png

Here’s the top player on the board and Riley seems to be pretty sexy keen and cool! And underrated!

https://i.ibb.co/NT6jwM5/Jets-419.png

And here is Hampton, and we are a 3-4 after all, and Hampton is well rounded and underrated.


Which of the three would you do?

[Abe Sargent]

I’m leaning towards CB because I have two talented LBs but none really at DB.




2.2 – Who fell? Who do I like here? I take WR Dean Springfield who looks pretty solid. Wanna see?

https://i.ibb.co/K56WH9j/Jets-420.png

Springfield is the 4th best WR on the draft right now but looks to have some sexy bars. Hopefully he’ll hold!

3.2 – TE Donte Holmes? MLB Cary Marshak? SS Griffin Anthony? I do Anthony.


4.2 – Wait…I just checked….and Hampton has fallen? I take him!


5.2 – Another LB fell, name of Charles Wagener. He’s okay in bars, and very underrated. I’ll show you..

https://i.ibb.co/CQktVPG/Jets-421.png


Will he grow? I guess we’ll find out together!


6.2 – OT Kirk Burke looks like a grower


7.2 – The Bap is.. DE Maurice Ondes. I take him.

Rookie Lookie #1

1.2 – CB Winston Riley, Wake Forest, 50/78
2.2 – WR Dean Springfield, Tennessee, 31/71
3.2 – SS Griffin Anthony, Houston, 27/55
4.2 – WLB Les Hampton, Colorado, 32/78
5.2 – MLB Charles Wagener, Baylor, 42/59
6.2 – OT Kirk Burke, Colorado State, 13/47
7.2 - DE Maurice Ondes, Washington, 22/43

Baby’s first draft class! Awwwwwwwwwwwww. Isn’t it cute?


Our measure to move to WV passed 53.7%!

[Abe Sargent]

The 2076 NFL Preseason

I hand out rests and make my premiere depth chart!

I move Hampton to SLB and Naumoff to WLB.


Week 2 – At New England – We lose 13-34

Week 3 – Buffalo – We lose 23-13

Week 4 – At Vegas – We lose 14-26. Very consistent scores.

Week 5 – Miami – We lose 37-17. Every game we scored between 13-17.

We are 0-4.


Rookie Lookie #3

1.2 – CB Winston Riley, Wake Forest, 50/78; 57/77; 59/80
2.2 – WR Dean Springfield, Tennessee, 31/71; 35/69; 36/68
3.2 – SS Griffin Anthony, Houston, 27/55; 30/67; 32/63
4.2 – WLB Les Hampton, Colorado, 32/78; 40/78; 43/75

6.2 – OT Kirk Burke, Colorado State, 13/47; 17/47; 17/37
7.2 - DE Maurice Ondes, Washington, 22/43; 24/36; 26/41

Riley rose a bit and Anthony was down from camp but up from draft. Can Springfield be my stud? I had an early 2nd rounder with one of my teams named Wilcox in the mid-60s who was the best of them all and was amazingly consistent and over 1000+ even in his debut season and was in the HOF. Will Springfield be my Wilcox? If so we got all of our triumvirate this year from FA and the draft.

Hampton dropped a bit, Wagener rose and I move him to SILB and we’ll start him there, Fowler dropped to 53/53. Burke busted instead of growing. As did Ondes

Top 5 UFAs by Pot

C Kelvin Richardson, 27/66; 34/67; 37/62
MLB Julian Naumoff, 15/62; 20/62; 20/37

SILB Johnnie Gaines, 21/59; 26/56; 25/49
DT Ralph Larry, 24/54; 30/51; 25/40


Even with the bust, Richardson is a fine emergency starter at OC until I find my guy. Naumoff was a big bust and I move him from starting at WLB. My great UFA class all dropped…not good.

I cut player to get to 53

Mauriello dropped to 25/25. I can’t cut him as he is injured, so I deactivate him. I hand his starting gig over to a UFA.

[Abe Sargent]

Wanna see my top two rookies after the draft?

https://i.ibb.co/jWSnWq2/Jets-422.png

Let’s start with Springfield who I am hoping will be my Wilcox. I like him a lot! He’s well rounded with getting downfield his works and avoiding drops his best.

https://i.ibb.co/DwCy5pc/Jets-423.png

And here is Riley, a stud at CB, a key place to get one, and the top ranked player in the draft at the time of the draft (not now, but he’s good!). I enjoy him a lot and hope to use him and SS Anthony to lock down the passing game. My LB Corps is good, my secondary okay, my O Line is fine save for one OG, I have one member in my WR Corps, and my RB and QB are great, although I need a good FB, TE, and more WR. But as you can see, my D Line is all horrible after the reboot without Polk. In the last sim they cut TE Prior and let Polk go, and here they franchised Polk and then cut Swager to make that work financially under the cap.

[Abe Sargent]

The Green Page? Riley 2nd, Springfield on there as well!


Rookie Investigation

QB – This was another one QB draft with one at 67 and that’s it for 50+ dudes.

RB – 1 71, and then 3 50s. Light.

FB – 1 at 68 and that’s it. Very light.

TE – 66, 2 50s, Very light

WR – 75, Springfield at 68, WR we were looking at at 1.2 was 65, 58, 57

OC – 78, 62 – us, 5 50s

OG – 76, 2 60s, 6 50s

OT – 2 low 60s, 5 50s

DL – 83, 70, 6 60s, 7 50s

LBs – At 75, Hampton is tied for the best LB in the draft. At 68, Wagener is the 6th best.

DB – With an 80 pot, Riley is the best DB in the draft, and SS Griffin is the 4th best. Riley is the 2nd best player in the draft after a 84 pot DE.

Good stuff!

Here’s my first roster with Raleigh!

[Abe Sargent]

The 2076 NFL Regular Season

With my full triumvirate assembled (hopefully) I think we’ll get more in the 5 or 6 win season rather than my normal 2-14 or 3-13 or 1-15. My hope is that this is a one year transition not two or more, although we’ll see.

As a reminder I don’t deep sim the first season of a dynasty as nothing is happening.

Week 1 – At NY – We thump them 27-12! We win our first match!

Week 2 – Cincinnati – We lose 24-10

Week 3 – Arizona – We lose 13-7

Week 4 – Richmond – Hello old friends! We lose 14-3

Week 5 – Detroit – We lose 20-6

Week 6 – At Green Bay – We lose 3-31

Week 7 – At DC – We lose 13-26

Week 8 – BYE

Week 9 – At Chicago – We lose 14-17


We are 1-7 at the half

[Abe Sargent]

Week 10 – NY – Can we sweep them? We lose barely 16-17

Week 11 – Greenville – Hello! We lose 10-26

Week 12 – At Cleveland – We lose 27-7

Week 13 – At Tampa Bay – We lose 14-20

Week 14 – Baltimore – We win 22-13

Week 15 – At Greenville – We lose 3-28

Week 16 – At Pittsburgh – We lose 17-27

Week 17 – DC – We lose 14-28

We finish 2-14. We have the worst record in the league. I’m surprised by this low a season.

[Abe Sargent]

The 2076 NFL Playoffs

Greenville finished a down 9-7 but won the division.

Stats

Offensive


Passing

QB Curtis – 330 of 604, 3139 yards, 14:12, 68.7 rating

Not as good as he should have been


Rushing

RB Swager – 283 of 823, 2.91 ypc, 2 scores

Wow Swager…

Receiving

https://i.ibb.co/BgZLNHF/Jets-426.png

Here you can see Sprinkle and Swager each had more than 100 targets but not Springfield. Not a good year here for any of these things. Quiet year for receiving.

Blocking

https://i.ibb.co/ckhs7QX/Jets-425.png

We had some injuries here, and none had even 20 KRB…

Wow

Special Teams

K Stewart – 20 of 21, Long of 51, 17 of 18 PAT

Not bad Stewart!

P Ellison – 122 punts, 45.7 avg, 40 in 20

Good stuff Ellison!

We had no RET Scores

Davidson led my team with 22 special teams tackles

[Abe Sargent]

Defense

https://i.ibb.co/HYsVq1p/Jets-424.png


Here you can see the massive amount of tackles Wagener got, and his 3 sacks were solid for an ILB. Hampton was 2nd in tackles with 103 which was solid. Wagener…led the league in solo tackles. 5 sacks by rookie Ondes which is pretty good for a guy that bad. Obviously not a good year here.


Pass Coverage

https://i.ibb.co/9Nk7hz7/Jets-427.png

Wagener led my team and the league in pasdef and Riley had 3 picks and 9 pasdef. This was about what you’d expect for an all rookie secondary save for Bowman.

[Abe Sargent]

Team Awards

I tag no one…

[Abe Sargent]

The 2077 NFL FA Period #1

Now RB Swager dropped to 56/56, so do I want a better one at the 1.1 spot? There is a solid underrated horse on the board. There is a stud K that’s As Scouted I want to come away with.

I sign all of my RFAs

Any targets?

I make offers to these players

FB Lester Rose – 4.6 mill, 1 year
DE Bucky Polk – 130 mill, 4 years
SILB Jon Alston – 13 mill, 2 years
FS Devan Phelan – 41 mill, 2 years

Week 2 – Alston signs with Greenville for a lot less

Week 4 – Phelan signs

Week 5 – Polk signs

Week 8 – Rose signs



See you at the draft!!!

[Abe Sargent]

The 2077 NFL Amateur Draft

Who do I like…

RB Harold Lincoln – Underrated, solid bars. Do I go RB here? Swager is in his 6th year and dropped to mid 50s last year, so grabbing a stud here would make sense.

DT Dale Anderson – Best player on the board, very underrated… how could I not want to grab a stud NT that would solidify my D line?

OG Ken Shepard – Stud, underrated.

Here’s Lincoln…


https://i.ibb.co/9Td5FTx/Jets-428.png

I’m leaning for Lincoln, who’s not amazing, but should be solid. But I could stick with Swager and then grab a few other studs here at the 1.1 spot and then get a RB later. But here’s the thing…Swager is in his 6th year as a player, and has just mid-50s and will drop again soon. Lincoln is better and younger….

I’ll sleep on it…

[Abe Sargent]

I snatch Lincoln. He’s younger and better and cheaper than Swager.

2.1 - Who do I like here? Who fell?

SILB Dusty Hedges – Looks good and we need a good WLB backer. He’s a pass rush stud and I could move him over.
OG Rodney Spiak – Solid bars for here, overrated
DT Mo Fishley – Best player on the board, I need a strong NT
TE Jeffery Allen – Looks great for 2.1
WR Myles Oswell – Solid looking WR.


Hmm…I go Hedges. We are a 3-4.

3.1 – Is this too early to grab the K stud in this draft? I take him, Britt Ramirez. Wanna see him?

https://i.ibb.co/D45cp3N/Jets-429.png

Here he is! Looks like a strong stud, right? Right!


4.1 – I need a second WR, so how about Andy Schwartz? There is a solid OG on the board named Alvin Banks but he is not great at run blocking in a smashmouth style offense. I also like DE Diego Cox who looks pretty solid. Hmm…. I go Schwartz. I need another WR. I need a starting OG. I need a DE across from Polk. What do I do? I go… DE. I can’t have two openings at D Line.


5.1 – TE Conrad Flanagan? I like Flanagan a lot. He seems like a grower. I grab him.


6.1 – WLB Donnell Michl? I do it. This guy fell, hard…


7.1 – SS Jerome Williamson looks pretty solid. LT Jordan Smithwick? DE Ivan Westbrook? I go LT. I can move him to OG if needed.


I move Hedges to WLB

1.1 - RB Harold Lincoln, Columbia, 52/73

Here’s Lincoln. He’s good inside and out, and he’s a strong runner and an solid catcher of the ball as well.

https://i.ibb.co/87K2r9x/Jets-431.png

Here’s my booming 2.1 pick Hedges starting at WLB. Cool name, better phrase. Need to clean those Dusty Hedges. See those rush numbers? Stud. Hopefully he’ll be my Hudson and get me those sacks.

Lincoln and Cox

Rookie Investigation

QB – This was a three headed monster – QBs at 75, 66, and 62. Then a 59 one too.

RB – Lincoln at 71 was the best RB in the draft. 2 60s, 3 50s, a triangle of talent.

FB – 58. That was the only FB of note.

TE – 66, 64, 64, Flanagan tied for 2nd in the league, the top TE was the one we were looking at with the 2.1 spot.

WR – 3 60s, 6 50s. Were their 12 40s? Nope, just 9. Well that works too.!

OC – 66, 54, that’s it

OG – 81 – the stud we were looking at with 1.1, 71, 64, 7 50. Smithwick is the 8th best OG in the draft.

OT – 71, 4 60s, 5 50s

K – 77, ours was tops

D L – 86, 84, 63, 12 50s. Very bottom heavy. Cox was 3rd best.

LB – 2 at 74, ours was tied for best, 1 at 71, 66, 9 at 50s. My dropped Michtl is 6th best in the league.

DB – 2 70s, 6 60s, 6 50s. Very similar.

Good stuff!

Stats

Offensive

QB Curtis – 359 of 618, 3889, 17:16, 75.1 rating

Dude was 2nd in the league in yards in his 2nd year as a starter! Need to get those TD numbers up.

Rushing

RB Lincoln – 314 for 1096 yards, 3.49 ypc, 5 scores

5th best in yards as a rookie. Good stuff Lincoln!

Receiving

https://i.ibb.co/HFZyrhF/Jets-432.png

Springfield a great second year. He was 4th in yards, just needed more scores. Lincoln was 2nd in grabs and his 616 yards have him 1.7k yards from scrimmage. Flanagan was great with the ball as well as a rookie. Rose was fun as well. Note that my WRs not named Springfield were 5th in grabs and low in yards and scores.

Blocking

https://i.ibb.co/Lg9ff9N/Jets-433.png


Feh… rookie Smithwick was just 17 KRB and 6 sacks allowed. No one with a pancake.

Special Teams

K Ramirez – 33 of 38, Long of 49, 20 of 25 PAT

Too many missed PATs. Gotta get that number better

P Ellison – 105 punts, 45.8 avg, 40 in 20

Not bad. Not as good as last year, but not bad.

Defensive

https://i.ibb.co/JxVtHZc/Jets-434.png

Wagener led my team in tackles with 110 and netted me a pair of sacks. 9 sacks by DT Givens who is…43/43. Crazy! Polk 7 sacks in injuries. Rookie WLB Hedges with a nice 7 sacks in his debut season. Good stuff! Burgess and Wagener led my team with 4 FF each.


Pass Coverage

https://i.ibb.co/grSWHjd/Jets-435.png


SS Griffin Anthony with my top picks, we had tons of pasdef by players like Hampton and Riley, and okay picks. Wagener? 2 picks both returned for scores. Good stuff! Hedges’ 3 picks was solid as well.

I make an offer for Rose to come back. There is a stud in the draft so this may only be a one time deal if I take him like early 2nd.

I do not make an offer for RB Abel Fuller who is also 50+ as Swager is running that roll for me. Actually, Swager dropped to 41/41 and I cut him and make an offer for Fuller.

Fuller – 36 mill, 3 years

That’s it.

Week 8 – Rose joins us

Week 9 – Swager heads to Detroit

[Abe Sargent]

The 2078 NFL Amateur Draft

Let’s slow roll this…

Feh the pick I was hoping would be there at 1.4 went 1.3

Pick #1 - Carolina - Blaylock, Eugene, QB, South Florida
Pick #2 - Detroit - Kerr, Stephen, CB, Mississippi
Pick #3 - Chicago - Cox, Roman, T, Kansas


There you are! This is a deep draft in DB and other place,s but light in O Line and coming away with a studly stud OT would have made me happy.

So who do I like here?

WR Brad Crane – Overrated, stud – I need a 2nd WR
OG Eugene Jenkins – As Scouted, great bars, lower run block – I need to improve my O Line.
CB - Moe Hodges – As Scouted, studly
CB Donte Hamilton - As Scouted, studly
NT Joel Sloan – 2nd best player on the board, not great bars for here, underrated
DT Lincoln Crane – Better bars, Hard to Read

I need a 4th DB to replace the aging and dropping in value Phelan. I need a good DT, but after getting an All Pro there its less of a need. I need to replace my O Line as they are not playing well.

Let me pull a few rookies for you to look at and let me know what you think!

https://i.ibb.co/TP0VPTF/Jets-436.png

Here is Jenkins. As you can see, he’s great everywhere save for the key area of rb.

https://i.ibb.co/B3kmnqr/Jets-437.png

Here’s my underrated NT that’s pretty developed actually.

https://i.ibb.co/jT6k9j4/Jets-438.png

Here’s the Hard to Read one. Better bars, but bigger gamble. Also not as developed.

https://i.ibb.co/pxwCTPC/Jets-439.png

Hamilton has the best bars for the dbs on the board.

None of these would be on the board at 2nd round, so we’ll need to grab one now.

[Abe Sargent]

Hmmmm…none of these are as big a priority as others.

The problem with the Dts is that they aren’t as big of value here at the 1.4 as I’d like to get, and wouldn’t be as good as your normal 1.4 pick. They’d just be okay…

Who would you do?

I am a smashmouth team and I need better O Line. I am a 3-4 and I need a stud NT. I set aside the BAP of likely Hamilton and take… Sloan. I need a studly DT and he’s less of a gamble than the Hard to Read one.

2.8 – Is OG Erik Powell still on the board? If not I could grab OG Liam Wallace. What about LT Cole Hardy? Is he free? My preference is Hardy then Powell then Wallace. Hardy was taken 2.5 so I grab Powell.


3.7 – Is MLB Jay Hamilton free? Nope? . I grab P Heath Polley. Wanna see the stud?

https://i.ibb.co/rwGVmbb/Jets-440.png

Sure thing!


4.6 – LG Neal Schau? Okay!


5.5 - I grab FS Tyler Conway then. He’s a reach but a grower

6.4 – I need another WR…how about Richard Harding?


7.8 - QB Brant Bonilla? I need a better backup so I grab him.

The 2078 NFL Preseason

I hand out deactives and make my depth chart

I will start both rookie OGs. Poock has dropped to 55/55 so I won’t start him this year unless a rookie falls. I also start FS Conway and move Phelan to nickelback.

Week 2 – Augusta – We win 16-12

Week 3 – At Baltimore – We lose 16-38

Week 4 – Jacksonville – We lose 16—45

Week 5 – At Cincinnati – We win 17-6

We finish 2-2 and we scored 16 and 17 in every game.


Rookie Lookie #3

1.4 – NT Joel Sloan, Washington, 51/71; 61/75; 64/77
2.8 – OG Erik Powell, Temple, 35/65; 39/64; 42/73

7.8 – QB Brant Bonilla, Florida State, 10/39; 13/40; 14/42

Sloan grew as we thought. Hello Powell! You were good as a mid-60s OG but 73 is even better! Schau also grew as well, nice! Conway grew as expected as well. I thought Harding was a grower but… ah well, you don’t win them all, right? Ditto Bonilla.

Rookies?

https://i.ibb.co/tzJ2f72/Jets-441.png

Here’s our very developed Sloan. Looks not bad. Not amazing with the pass rush, but he’s fine and dandy. Good at thinking and punching.

https://i.ibb.co/ssDLFdM/Jets-442.png

Here’s my 2nd pick at the 2.8 spot. Powell is in the 70s and quals as a stud, and as you can see, has a great pancake making machine. He’s not bad elsewhere either.

[Abe Sargent]

The Green Page? Just Sloan.

Rookie Investigation

QB – 77, 3 in 50s, Bonilla is the 7th best one.

RB – 1 60s, 3 50s

FB – 71, 2 60s, 1 50s. Very symmetrical

TE – 3 50s

WR – 2 60s, 4 50s, Harding is the 7th best WR in the draft

C – 75, 60, 59 that’s it

OG – 81 the one we were looking at with the 1.4 spot, Powell at 73 is 2nd best, Schau at 66 is 5th best. 3 60 and 5 50s

OT – 73, 2 60s, 2 50s

P – Polley was the best at 84 pot, but there was one at 80. Polley was also the best rookie by potential at any position.

DL – 1 80s that was still on the board when we picked at 1.4, 3 70s of which Sloan was the best, Crane was 3rd with 73 pot and we could have done either and wouldn’t have missed, 3 60s, 14 50s. Whoa.

LB – 3 80s, 2 70s, 1 50. Top heavy, We passed by the big ones as we had other needs and three of my four LB Corps are set and Burgess at 60/60 is fine at WILB for now.

DB – 80, 70, 10 60s, 11 50s. Wow that was deep. It was good we got a solid DB in this draft.

Good stuff rookies!

All Pro 2nd Team

SLB Les Hampton

That’s the first All Pro for my stud Hampton, Ramirez, and then lower players Cox and Bowman. Rose and Flanagan with not their first, and Flanagan is the first TE I’ve ever had two with two All Pros! He had two in TWO YEARS. Nasty!

[Abe Sargent]

Stats

Offensive

Passing

QB Curtis – 370 of 614, 4115 yards, 24:9, 87.1 rating

I can’t recall getting 4.1k yards before. Curtis was 2nd in yards in the league and 4th in scores. Not bad lad!

Rushing

RB Lincoln – 316 for 1027, 3.25 ypc, 4 TDs.

That was a worse year as a sophomore as Lincoln was last year as a rookie! Wow.

Receiving

https://i.ibb.co/VgsDD4z/Jets-443.png


Springfield had a great year and was 4th in receiving yards and 2nd in scores, surprised not to see him with an All Pro 2nd team. Flanagan was 2nd in yards and 1st in scores for TEs. Nice stuff! Duncan was fine and Rose got me 444 yards and 2 scores and remains a nice weapon.


Blocking

https://i.ibb.co/sQHhF5D/Jets-444.png


Our blocking was better but still not good. Rookie Powell was 2nd on the team in KRB with just 21 and 2 sacks allowed which is pretty good. Schau needs to do better!

Special Teams

K Ramirez – 42 of 48, Long of 58, 31 of 34 PAT

Great year by Ramirez, but he still missed 9 FGS and PATs, and I’ve had better not get All Pro. Good stuff getting the award though!

P Polley – 106 punts, 49.0 avg, 38 in 20

How did Polley not get the award? He led in p average and had more than 100 punts to get him there?

CB Blume, 1 PR RET TD that won us a game

16 special teams tackles for Dusty Hedges that led the team.

[Abe Sargent]

Defensive



https://i.ibb.co/bKJL7GV/Jets-445.png

Wagener led my team in tackles again and grabbed me a solid 5 sacks, his most. Cox led my team with a nasty 13.5 sacks and that’s…the league leader with a half a sack in front. Good job Cox! Dusty Hedges with a solid 7.5 sacks at WLB was 2nd and my team did well elsewhere. Polk was just 6.5, which I need better from given how much I am paying him. In his debut year, NT Joel Sloan was with 5.5 sacks, which isn’t bad for a rookie, but we’ll need that number to rise.

Pass Coverage

https://i.ibb.co/QKrZJw1/Jets-446.png


Placeholder Bowman led my team with 5 picks this year and won an All Pro! Good job! Phelan did well at nickel with 3 picks and 12 pasdef. Hampton grabbed me 3 picks as well as 16 pasdef, and Riley needs to do better. He hasn’t played like the stud he is. Good stuff folks!

[Abe Sargent]

Team Awards

Off. Player of the Year – QB Efrain Curtis – 2nd in yards and 4th in scores? Good stuff Curtis!

Def. Player of the Year – DE Diego Cox – If you had told me when we drafted him that 4.1 59/59 DE would wind up getting the most sacks in a season…would I have believed you? Nope! Good stuff Cox!

Special Teams Player of the Year – K Britt Ramirez – Dude won All Pro and was game MVP 2x. Good stuff Kicker!

Rookie of the Year – P Heath Polley – Led the league in punting avg? Awesome stuff rookie!

Heart Award – FB Lester Rose – Dude is a starter and these normally go to subs and backups, but this is a 13 year vet, 33 years, old, WVU BABY player, 48/48 rated, who just got his NINTH All Pro! How can I give this to anyone else? If any FB makes it to the HOF, would a guy with nine All Pros be one?

CB Arnold Kristosik – Stud CB, drafted 2.2, 2067, 4 rings, no awards


Other Abe’s Boys

TE Gary Jalbert – 5.20 draft in 2068, 1 Ring



Staff Draft

No changes

I massage my ticket prices.

See you in FA!

[Abe Sargent]

The 2079 NFL FA Period #1

We pick 1.28. I interview folks. There is an As Scouted FB stud in the draft but I don’t know if I have the ability to draft it over other needs on my roster.

I sign my RFAs save for 4 in the 30s. I have 46 on my roster , Phelan and Poock UFAs, and we have 68 mill for a new player.

Players needing Extensions

QB Curtis – I extend him right now. I lose 42 mill on my cap hit this year.
WILB Fowler – no extension coming
CB Bowman – I’ll hold off until post draft

Any FAs I want to chase?

I make an offer for WR Manual Robinson, 40 mill, 3 years

I want to make an offer for WR Skudris, but I don’t have the cash…

Well, I could cut… Polk, 8th year vet, 54/54 value…but I don’t have anyone on my roster…

I do so. I cut Polk.

I offer 20 mill 1 year for Skudris.

LT Louis Hitchcock, 8 mill, 2 years

Week 2 – Robinson signs!

Week 6 – Skudris signs!

Week 8 – Polk signs with Green Bay

Week 9 – Hitchcock signs with us!

See you at the draft!

[Abe Sargent]

The 2079 NFL Amateur Draft

Drafting 1.1 is… LA Chargers and my guess is that they will take Qb Aidan Blades and they grab…DT Josue Garcia. Blades goes… 2nd to DC who traded up. We may be facing a nasty guy…

The 1.28 pick arrives!

Who do I like here?

MLB Larry Wolfe – Okay bars for here, As Scouted, could be my new Burgess
DE Francisco Dennis – Top DE on the board, Hard to Read…do I want him to be my new Polk? His bars are okay.
OT Gino Driver – Bars are fine, Hard to Read
Fb Dan Engelberger – As Scouted

Let’s look!

https://i.ibb.co/92cTD1R/Jets-447.png

Let’s start with the stud FB Engelberger. Great blocking, great running save for blitz pickup, and solid catching. As scouted, and most talented player on the board.

https://i.ibb.co/qx7mt0J/Jets-448.png

Driver is good at run block,great at pass, poor at the pancakes, and fine at endurance. He’s fine for 1.28 as he’d be okay. But….Hard to Read? Nope!

https://i.ibb.co/fksHp5p/Jets-449.png

Here’s the top DE on the board and could be my new Polk. Not great at the bars just okay at everything save thinking, and Hard to Read as well makes Dennis a double gamble

https://i.ibb.co/6RZGs0y/Jets-450.png

Here’s the Wolfe. My current WILB is Burgess at 60/60 and Wolfe would be a big improvement with his sexy pass rushing fun times and pretty developed and As Scouted.

So…who would you do?

[Abe Sargent]

Let’s talk about it more.

By need: DE, FB, MLB, OT

I just signed a 59 pot guy in FA at OT that drops my need there, but I do need a much better O Line, and finding a better OT here at 1.28 is rarer than a good FB or LB or even DE. So OT might be the best way to go. But Hard to Read is rough on the eyes. He might finish in the mid 60s with the big gap in strength.

Now if Wolfe’s bars were on Dennis? As Scouted? This decision would be easy, with that great rushing, but at ILB it’s less usable and the coverage isn’t as good as I like on my LBs. Wolfe is a better WLB, which I already have. But he’ll be better than Burgess.

The problem is that none of these non-FBs look like studs. They’ll likely be in the 60s. So I decide to go BAP and take Engelberger.




2.28 – Alright…who fell and who do I like here at 2.28? OT George Vilma looks fine. He looks like a pretty solid OT back here. I grab him.


https://i.ibb.co/wRcR38R/Jets-451.png

Here he is! I interviewed him and he’s As Scouted and a stud at run blocking.


3.28 – Who do I like here? Hmm…the BAP is 5.5 rated MLB Riley Pillmeier so I grab him.


4.28 – DE Bryson Moorehead is okay. Not amazing, but fine. RB Miles Kovacs looks solid… I go Moorehead a position of need.


5.28 – How about TE Mark Webb? He’s not the best blocker but he’s good at catching that ball. I also like SS Santiago Hoover who is good at punt returns. I go TE.


6.28 – WR Shaun Blackwell?


7.28 – I found him. CB Hector Wellins looks pretty good with the bars.


Rookie Lookie #1

1.28 – FB Dan Engelberger, USC, 44/70
2.28 – OT George Vilma, Georgia,
3.28 - MLB Riley Pillmeier, Minnesota
4.28 - DE Bryson Moorehead, Southern Mississippi
5.28 – TE Mark Webb, Minnesota
6.28 – WR Shaun Blackwell, Washington State
7.28 – CB Hector Wellins, Arizona

Thither you goeth!

Extensions

I don’t extend Bowman he wants too much 100 mill 4 years.

I extend these 2 years left players

RB Lincoln, 210 5 years


I leave the last 10 mill for players I might need to sign this season

Top Rookie?

https://i.ibb.co/rmB49n1/Jets-452.png

Here’s Engelberger post bust and as you can see, he’s great in blocking, running is fine save for blitz pickup, and he’s okay in catching. I was hoping for a more studly body, but we’ll take it

I’ll skip my busted OT Vilma who you saw in the draft. No one else wound up in the 60s or higher save for Dan. This was not a good draft

[Abe Sargent]

The Green Page? None

QB – 69 and that’s it

RB – Zero above 50!

FB – My guy was the best in the league, one 55. That’s it

TE – 60, 57. That’s it

WR – 63, 3 50,s ,and we had one of those in the 6th round who wound up the 3rd best WR in the draft.

OC – 2 60s, 2 50s

OG – 1 80s, 1 70s, 1 60s, 3 50s

OT – 2 70s, 1 60s, 3 50s. Our target at1.28 wound up at 27/57 and Vilma was 55 pot.

DL – 2 80s, 4 70s, 1 60, 5 50s. Moorehead is 8th best. Our choice at 1/28 wound up… 37/51. Ouch!

LB – 3 60s, 6 50s. Davidson 6th best in the draft. Wolfe was 51/68 and the best pot of the 1.28 options.

DB – 1 70, 5 60s, 6 50s. We had none 50+

There you are!

Stats

Offensive

Passing

QB Curtis – 374 of 570, 3942 yards, 27:7, 96.2 rating

He had the most yards, 3rd most scores, and best rating. Good stuff Curtis!


Rushing

RB Lincoln – 413 for 1818, 4.39 ypc, 15 scores

Nasty! That’s a great year for the 3rd year veteran. He led in yards by 500+ and scores by 5.


Receiving


https://i.ibb.co/jR8gbqJ/Jets-453.png


Here are my catchers of the ball! Springfield another solid year, that guy has been so solid. Lincoln had a nasty 770 yards catching and over 2.6k yards from scrimmage. Flanagan had a great year again and got his 3rd All Pro in as many years, and Robinson and Skudris rounded out my starting crew.


Blocking

https://i.ibb.co/C63BRSW/Jets-454.png


This year wasn’t great, but it was the best I’ve had with the Eagles. Good stuff O line. Richardson led my team with KRB and my OTs came through as well. Good stuff for Schau this year too.

Special Teams

K Ramirez – 41 of 50, Long of 61, 41 of 46 PAT

Way too many missed PATs and FGs. Good long kick though!

P Polley – 82 punts, 48.2 avg, 40 in 20

Almost 50% in the 20 and a great avg…Polley did quite well!

WR Springfield, KR RET TD

Dusty Hedges led my team with 22 special teams tackles

[Abe Sargent]

Defensive

https://i.ibb.co/DVmCBdN/Jets-455.png

Wagener’s tackle numbers dropped, and he only grabbed me 2 sacks. Did you see how many sacks Hampton had? This is the first time a LB had netted me more than 10 sacks! Hampton… led the league in sacks! That was awesome SLB! Sloan’s 7.5 sacks are what I like for my NTs and especially ones taken 1.4 and a stud. Cox was down to 8.5 but that’s fine for a 59/59 guy, and rookie Moorehead was 1.5 sacks. Hedges was down a few sacks to 6.5 sacks.


Pass Coverage

https://i.ibb.co/CBDdjPJ/Jets-456.png

Our picks weren’t as good as last year. Nor our pasdef. Hampton led my team in pasdef and Bowman with 4 picks was my best. Riley is back with 2 pick, but I still need those picks to rise.

[Abe Sargent]

Team Awards

Off. Player of the Year – FB Harold Lincoln – Dude wins a quadfecta…dude wins this award for my team.

Def. Player of the Year – SLB Les Hampton – Dude wins DPOTY for the league…dude wins this for my club.

Special Teams Player of the Year – P Heath Polley – Great year for the guy with a great in 20 % and punt avg.

Rookie of the Year – FB Dan Engelberger – Dude won an All Pro! Grabbed me 245 yards and 4 scores! Good stuff rookie!

Heart Award – WR Demetrius Skudris – This old, savvy vet netted me 5 scores, as my #3 WR and he willingly accepted the role for the Super Bowl winning Eagles!

I end the season and with it the 2070s!

We score a 38

The 2080 NFL Offseason

Ready for the 2080s?

I didn’t get another e-mail from my owner about driving down cost


Hall of Fame

TE Deron Prior – Stud TE for Greenville, drafted 2.2, in 2065, 3 Rings, 1 All Pro. Good stuff Prior!


Retirements of Note

Eagles?

WR Demetrius Skudris – Stud WR for the Grizzlies, 1.3 pick, 2067, 5 Rings, 2 All Pros, will he be getting the HOF with just 2 All Pros? 5 rings is a lot of Rings.

We also lost our AC coach.

Grizzlies?

DE Rondell Dorn – Stud DE we drafted in the same draft as Xavier Russell at 2.20, 2068, 4 Rings, 7 All Pros, obvious HOF career!

Other Abe’s Boys

WILB Kai Fowler – Solid LB drafted at Greenville 4.30, 2069, 3 Rings, no honors


Two of those are possible HOFs.


Staff Draft

We draft 32nd still

My new AC is Donovan Gaines, 48, suitability of 53


I’m glad I won a Super Bowl for Raleigh before leaving for WV.

I do not franchise Bowman, I may make him a normal offer though if his cost drops

[Abe Sargent]

The 2080 NFL FA Period #1

We draft 32nd and I interview many folks. I focus on LB for Burgess and CB

I sign my RFAs that I care to and wind up with… I leave 4 unsigned at DB and TE. We have 45 on the roster and 24 mill for new players

Extensions

I cut RB Fuller and free up 8 mill – he dropped to 44/44

K Ramirez – Wants 44 mill,3 years. I sign him
TE Flanagan – Wants 121 mill, 4 years. I sign him

WLB Dusty Hedges – Wants 111 mill over 4 years, I’d like to sign him, but that’s an increase of cash of 18 mill this year.

I hold off on Hedges until post draft.

How much does Bowman want? Just 58 mill for 3 years. He’s a 9 year vet. But that’s a big cap hit of 20 mill for one year.

I cut Ot Andre England and get 10 mill.

I extend OT Davidson by a year and drop his cap hit by 6 mill


Week 2 – Bowman signs with Richmond,

Week 7 – Fuller heads to Portland

Week 9 – England heads to the Giants.

Are you ready????

[Abe Sargent]

The 2080 NFL Amateur Draft

Ready for the first set of rookies for the decade? Let’s do it!

Picking 1.1 is Portland and I think they’ll take Qb Ron Pyne a studly guy and the best player on the board. They do so. See you in 31!

Who do I like

OT Branden Floyd – Not great bars, very overrated, top o line on the board
OG Geoff Badalaty – Very overrated, next best O Line on the board
WLB Ernest Marquardt - Okay bars, very underrated, could be my next Burgess or maybe Dusty Hedges.
WLB Marty Hoang – Hard to Read, worse bars that Marquardt
RCB Cornelius Falcon – Overrated, top db on the board

Is this the Marquardt draft pick?

https://i.ibb.co/6NnYQKL/Jets-457.png

Is this my pick? He’s not bad anywhere and weakest at run d, which is still fine. But very underrated leads me to think that he might be a solid investment for my 3-4 team. I could run him over Hedges or Burgess and run this guy out there.


Or am I going to do a secret player that I didn’t interview? This guy is just okay, not amazing…

Lemme think...

[Abe Sargent]

I’m just not sold on him.

Hmmm…

WR Herman Nelson?
OG Timothy Mathis?
CB Phillip Geer? I do Geer. I need a new Bowman.

https://i.ibb.co/XpMv2G3/Jets-458.png

Here is Geer. As you can see he has great bars, and he’s the 9th CB on the board so we are digging deep but I need a new Bowman and even if he busts he’ll still likely be better than my leaving 55/55 9th year vet



2.32 – LT Ezra Saenz? DE Henry McGregor? I prefer the ability of the latter.


3.32 – Who do I like here? WR Hector Wilkerson looks good and I grab him. He’ll replace Skudris who retired. He’s a looker.


4.32 – Who has fallen? MLB Dwight Ansell has. I grab him.

https://i.ibb.co/93GXbyH/Jets-459.png

I interviewed him and Hard to Read is bad early but worth it here at the back of the 4th round.

5.32 – Who is the BAP here? OC Neal Boyer is. I don’t need a new OC, but my backup isn’t that good anymore…wanna grab him? I grab the 2nd best player 5.5 rated Alan Ducharme LB instead. He looks like a grower.


6.32 - CB Rico Harmon – This guy looks good! He fell! Hard! No run D but great everywhere else.



7.32 – TE Kelvin Cheshier?

Rookie Lookie #1

1.32 – CB Phillip Geer, Alabama, 28/74
2.32 – DE Henry McGregor, Penn State, 38/71

Bust by Harmon sadly. Whoa Cheshier! Do I keep him and lose Flanagan? Got 4 70+ studs in this draft! Cheshier was a looker that grew! A 59 pot guy at the back of the draft was already great value!

No to Dusty Hedges. I’ll run Ansell as WILB this year for Burgess and then WLB next year.I hate losing that name though!

I extend Cox for 3 years, 70 mill

Rookies post draft?

https://i.ibb.co/NFT8DxR/Jets-460.png


Here’s Geer after the preseason and camp. Other than run d, he’s pretty sexy! I like what he brings to the table, and his pick bar is pretty solid as well.

https://i.ibb.co/jvr0fDZ/Jets-461.png

Here’s my #2 pick. McGregor is a stud at DE and I hope he’ll play that way! He replaces Moorehead who wasn’t playing well. He’s good at rushing that backfield and alright at punching and thinking and he’s bad bad at coverage. Good stuff!

[Abe Sargent]

On the Green Page?

Both of those.

Rookie Investigation

QB - 68 for the 1.1 guy and that’s it. None of 50+

RB – 71, 4 50s

FB – 66, 58, that’s it

TE – 1 70s, ours the best TE in the draft, 2 60s, 3 50s. A very nice triangle.

WR – 6 60s, 8 50s. Pretty deep. Our Wilkerson is the 4th best WR in the draft

OC – 4 50s

OG – 1 80s, 1 70s, 2 60s, 4 50s that’s an odd symmetrical – 1+1 =2, 1+1+2=4, the next would be 1+1+2+4=8 40s. The 74 guy was on the board at 1.32 and we missed him.

OT – 89 -best player in the draft, 2 60s, 6 50s. Another triangle.

D Line – 2 80s, 3 70s, McGregor is the 4th best D Line in the draft, 2 60s, 12 50s

LB – 1 80s, 2 70s, 9 50s. Ansell is the 2nd best LB in the draft, and the one I was looking at with the 1..32 went…30/56. Glad I passed on him.

DB – 1 80, 2 70s, Geer is 2nd best in the draft, 2 60s, 9 50s

Good stuff!

Stats


Offensive


Passing

QB Curtis – 364 of 546, 3868, 25:8, 96.3 rating

Despite the big record this was a down year for Curtis. We need to get his numbers back up.

Rushing

RB Lincoln – 426 for 1696, 3.98 ypc, 15 scores

6 more scores than #2, 336 more yards than #2. Good stuff Lincoln!


Receiving

https://i.ibb.co/y8nmRHp/Jets-462.png

Another great year by Springfield and he was 4th in yards but no All Pro again. Insert sad face here. Wilkerson was 2nd on the team in yards and grabs and netted a Rookie award too, which is solid and fun. Flanagan was 3rd with a down year at 617 yards and Engelberger was 4th in yards with a massive 500+! Nasty stuff FB! He had more yards than Lincoln!


Blocking

https://i.ibb.co/0ZZb4VC/Jets-463.png


Our blocking was up and down! Great year by Richardson and Schau was fine, but the other three were sub 20 KRBs. We have to get better…

Special Teams

K Ramirez – 37 of 42 FG, Long of 54, 43 of 46 PAT

Not bad Ramirez, better than last year by far.

P Polley – 91 punts, 49.3 avg, 40 in 20.

Another great season by Polley and he led the league in avg again.

RB Turner – 1 PR RET TD

Dusty Hedges led my team with 24 special teams tackles

[Abe Sargent]

Defensive


https://i.ibb.co/6stYWYL/Jets-464.png



Hampton was not a one hit wonder last year. Dude rocked 13.5 sacks and led my team in tackles again this year! Nasty stuff SLB! Sloan led my team and the league in sacks! His 14.5 sacks were the best in the year by a whole sack, Hampton was 2nd in the league. A DT led the league? NASTY! I love you Sloan. Like serious man love here. Now, on the other side of the realm, Hedges grabbed me a nasty 9.5 sacks and was the 3rd highest LB in the league for LBs in sacks. DE Cox was 8.5 sacks, which again is about what you’d expect for a 58/58 DE that has a good year, and rookie McGregor gave me a solid 7 sacks, and I hope to rise. This was an amazing year for sacks.



Pass Coverage

Conway nabbed me 5 picks and 14 pasdef, great years for the S. Hampton was 2nd in picks and top in pasdef that guy is a weapon. 3 picks by fellow S Anthony was solid. Riley’s 1 pick is again a worry. Geer, my 1.32 pick, gave me 2 picks and 1 RET TD and 8 pasdef which is solid for a rookie

[Abe Sargent]

Team Awards

Off. Player of the Year – OC Kelvin Richardson – My first All Pro for the O Line and for this guy was a solid year by the man at a position OC, that’s hard to get All Pro as there are only two per year. Good stuff!

Def. Player of the Year – NT Joel Sloan – It’s rare that a DT gets double digit sacks in a year, and has almost never happened for me. To notch 14.5? The best on the team? The best in the league? Nasty stuff Joel! He also led our team and the league with SEVEN FF!

Special Teams Player of the Year – P Heath Polley – I have teams where my default player for this award is the K, but Polley is so good and consistent and has such a high % of kicks in the 0 that he’s my default here. Good stuff!

Rookie Award – WR Hector Wilkerson – This wasn’t easy as McGregor pushed him all the way to the end, but dude won Off. Rookie of the Year, was 2nd on my team in catching, so dude wins this award.

Heart Award – LB Donnell Michl – How did a guy buried on my depth chart this much get a pick and a pasdef and 2 FF? Good stuff!

There you are!

[Abe Sargent]

I end the season and score a 38!

The 2081 NFL Offseason

We have moved to Charleston, WV!

What am I naming the franchise?


The Charleston Charlies - This was the old name for the minor league ballclub, it’s alliterative which is hard with Charleston.

The Charleston Wheelers – This was also the name for a minor league ballclub, it honors the Sternwheel Regatta history of the city.

The Charleston Glassblowers or Glaziers – This used to be the home of major glassmaking and this name would honor that history

The Charleston Mountaineers – The entire state of WV honors the idea of Mountaineer, as the state motto is “Mountaineers are Always Free.” Take it from WVU and use it here.

The Charleston Power – The entire region is about power production. This is name of the current minor league ball club

The Charleston Miners – Another key way to tap into the old history of the region.

The Charleston Coal Miners – A longer name but alliterative.




So which am I doing?

I am leaning towards Wheelers and Miners….

Let’s do…

The Miners. It’s obvious

[Abe Sargent]

Hall of Fame

RB Roldolfo Grogg – Awesome! We drafted him 1.1 with the Grizzlies, back in 2066, and he won 2 Super Bowls with them, 3 All Pros, 2 Super Bowl MVPs, 1 Off. Rookie of the Year. Welcome home good buddy!


Retirements of Note


Miners

None


Grizzlies

SLB Gavin Uribe – Drafted 1.32, 2071, 3 rings, 5 time All Pro, 2 time, Def. Player of the Year, a likely HOF.


Other Abe’s Boys

DE Xavier Russell – Stud DE that was the best in the league we drafted 1.20 in 2068, 3 Rings, 3 All Pros, maybe HOF.

WLB Jimmy Ingram – Solid LB drafted 3.30 in year 2069, 2 Rings with the Grizzlies, 1 All Pro

CB Tyrone Freestone – Solid CB drafted 3.28 in 2070, 3 Rings, no awards



Staff Draft

I retain my staff

We draft 32nd

I make no changes

I don’t tag any of my UFAs. Like Hedges.

I’ll see you at FA!

[Abe Sargent]

The 2081 NFL FA Period #1

We pick at 1.30. I interview many. I would love a draft as deep as last year that yielded me 4 70+ pot players. That’s not happening, but hey, any port in a storm right? Right!

My biggest need is LB where I want to replace Burgess as my rookie last year moves to WLB to replace Hedges.

I sign my RFAs that I care too. LB Davison won’t resign.

I have 44 on my roster and 14 mill available for new players

Extensions Needed

FL Robinson – I cut him. He dropped to 43/43, and I save 9.7 mill in cash, I have three solid WRs in Springfield, Wilkerson and Blackwell.

P Polley – I sign him to a 55 mill 5 year deal

OG Powell – wants 129 mill, 5 years

OG Schau – Wants 58 mill, 4 years

DT Sloan – Wants 207 mill, 5 years

S Conway – Wants 50 mill, 3 years


I want all four of those but I cannot afford them all.


In priority I want Sloan, Powell, Schau and Conway.

I’ll wait until post draft as I might find a new OG or SS. Sloan;s deal is an increase of 21 mil which is more than the 18.8 mill I have. I cut OT Kody Davidson which frees up 12 mill.

WR Springfield – Wants 269 mill over 5 years which increases his cap hit by 8 mill

OC Richardson – Wants 74 mill over 4 years and this drops his cap hit by 2 mill so I extend my All Pro.

I hold off Springfield and my four year players of note and we’ll hold off until they play in and around stuff. I might wind up with a replacement in the draft after all. Springfield only has one All Pro in 5 years and hasn’t really played to an HOF level yet, do I want to screw up my cap on the Altar of Springfield?

I’ll hold off.

If I cut Springfield I could get 30 mill which should be enough for many of my rookies from four years ago that need extensions.


Week 2 – Hedges signs with DC

Week 3 – Hitchcock signs with Greenville

Week 9 – Robinson signs with Tampa Bay and Michl with Jacksonville

Week 10 – Davidson signs with New Orleans

I’ll see you at the draft

[Abe Sargent]

The 2081 NFL Amateur Draft

Drafting 1.1 is the Indy Colts. My guess is they’ll grab OT Xavier Moniz a stud on the board and the top player in the draft…they go… S Haberman, Derrick. Moniz goes pick 2 to Chicago.


The 1.30 arrives. Who do I like?

NT - Marc Casas – Stud mtop player on the board, could be my new Sloan.
WLB – 3rd best player on the board, weird bars, Hard to Read – not really
OG Evan Thornton – Great bars for here, didn’t interview as OT was a need but not OG, so no interview for him.
OT Manuel Whiting – Not great bars, Overrated


Let’s look at Casas and Thornton

https://i.ibb.co/C1TVn4D/Jets-466.png

Look how nasty Casas looks! This is a game of replacement. I love Sloan, but dude wants more than 200 mill to resign, and that’s not cap friendly. I could draft Casas and then save a ton of money and move on. However, Sloan has produced this year, and moving on would be unknown as I have no idea if Casas will play at a Sloan level of play. Sloan has two All Pros in three years and if he continues would be a HOF player. Do you replace a HOF player?

https://i.ibb.co/XJ4tYBM/Jets-467.png

Here’s Thornton, who looks fine and dandy although he’s very green so I could rest him a year and then start him a year after letting Powell or Schau go. He’s also good in the run blocking which I like.

Who do you like?

[Abe Sargent]

I’m leaning towards Thornton as Powell hasn’t really pushed the boundaries like Sloan has.



2.30 – Who has fallen that I like? WR Ted Keith looks okay, not amazing, and would be a nice way to supplement Springfield. OT Kaden Cornyn isn’t the best OT I’ve ever seen, but he’s an okay starter. I grab Cornyn. I need a feasible starter at OT this draft after losing two.


3.30 – CB Larry Kocurek? Okay! He seems like a grower.


4.30 – How about WR Tito Robinson? I like Robinson a lot and take him.


5.30 – NT Henry Cote? He looks pretty sexy. A pass rush specialist.


6.30 – Who do I like here? The BAP is OC Landon Ellard and I grab him.


7.30 – WLB Pat Hastings? He really fell! Looks good!


Rookie Lookie #1

1.30 – OG Evan Thornton, Central Connecticut, 18/78
2.30 – OT Kaden Cornyn, California, 30/53
3.30 – CB Larry Korucek, Iowa, 31/51
4.30 – WR Tito Robinson, Mississippi State, 26/50
5.30 – NT Henry Cote, Pace, 39/71
6.30 – OC Landon Ellard, North Carolina State, 14/46
7.30 – WLB Pat Hastings, Colorado, 14/55

There we go!

Have I gotten a replacement for Sloan in the 5th round? Or is he going to bust?

[Abe Sargent]

The 2081 NFL Preseason

I hand out rests and massage my depth chart. I give Thornton a start now but may pull him back after the preseason. Burgess has dropped to 51/51.

Week 2 – Augusta – We tie 16-16

Week 3 – At Pittsburgh – We lose 20-23

Week 4 – At Houston – We win 19-10

Week 5 – Baltimore – We win 27-24.

We are 2-1-1 in the preseason


Rookie Lookie #3

1.30 – OG Evan Thornton, Central Connecticut, 18/78, 25/80; 25/74
2.30 – OT Kaden Cornyn, California, 30/53; 35/54; 36/55
3.30 – CB Larry Korucek, Iowa, 31/51; 39/49; 41/65

6.30 – OC Landon Ellard, North Carolina State, 14/46; 17/43; 17/35
7.30 – WLB Pat Hastings, Colorado, 14/55; 18/50; 18/44

Bust by Thornton a bit. Korucek grew and I move him to nickelback. Robinson grew as well, and that’s a 4th WR with a 50+ pot, which makes Springfield…duplicative… I’ll run Springfield as my #1 guy this year to give him another shot at All Pro and Super Bowl but I won’t resign him. Hastings looked so good too I;m sad at the bust.

Ruben Vaughn RCB, 19/42; 21/33; 20/24
Herman Charter RCB, 14/47; 18/41; 17/31


I cut:

OC Landon Ellard
CB Ruben Vaughn

[Abe Sargent]

Do I move Thornton off OG for Schau? Nope I keep him in


Extensions

I extend these players

OG Schau


Sloan? Yes or no? I have Cote who’s 69 to Sloan’s 77. Sloan is 74 pass rush and 70 pass rush str and 80 run d, and Cote? 31/68 run d, 40/80 rush and 99 strength. He’s better at rushing but worse at stopping the run. Cote is just 25 at play D and 26 at hitting. Sloan is 95 play d and 85 hitting.

Sloan is the better class of player. I extend him.

Springfield only wants 204 and dropped a bit to 63/63 is probably why.

I extend FS Conway and SS Anthony

I extend 2 years left FB Engelberger and I do OT Vilma as well since he’s very cheap.

I have 19 mill in cap space after that.

Rookies?

https://i.ibb.co/d6b9c6p/Jets-468.png


Here’s Thornton after his bust. He’s a stud at run blocking and fine at pass blocking. He’s a good body of blocking love. His strength isn’t much of anything, but that’s fine.

I’ll skip my merely adequate 2.30 pick.

https://i.ibb.co/ypY0xfk/Jets-469.png

Here’s my 3rd round pick instead. Check out Kocurek! He’s not good at the Run D, but he’s fine everywhere else and has solid even bars for the most part. Good stuff rooks!

[Abe Sargent]

On The Green Page?

Cote and Kocurek!

Rookie Investigation

QB – The best QB in this draft? A 45 pot. That’s not a typo…

RB – 1 60, 2 50s. Light

FB – 1 70, 2 60s, 1 50s. Square.

TE – 2 50s. Wow

WR – 69, 63, Tito Robinson 3rd at 60, 4 50s

C – 61, 53. That’s it

OG – 74, we led the league, 2 50. Wow that’s normally a deep slate of options, but not this time.

OT – 89 – top player in the draft, 74, 2 60s, 2 50s.

DL – 1 80, 3 70s, 8 60s, 4 50s. Cote was 5th best D Line at 69 pot.

LB – 64, 59, 54 – that’s it. Wow

DB – 1 70s, 9 60s, 7 50s – At 65, our 3.30 guy is the 6th best in the league.

Good stuff!

The 2081 NFL Regular Season

I predict 13-3 a drop of two wins from last year.

I have 9 injuries coming out of preseason, it was a bear.

Week 1 – At DC – I was hoping to open at home. Ah well, DC are our new rivals as they have won a recent Super Bowl and have made it to the playoffs multiple times over the last few years. We…win 40-17. Wow. MVP is SLB Hampton with 2 picks, 1 pick six. Curtis 33 of 51, 288 and 3:2, scores by Engelberger, Springfield and Flanagan, FF by Conway, Sloan, Ansell, rec by Conway,

McGregor arrived! We got a quadfecta! Note that I now have THREE Def Player of the Year for the league on my roster – Wagener, Hamptonx2 and McGregor! Nasty stuff! This is the first season where Curtis really showed up. He is the 3rd best QB by ability and having him play to it was really great!

[Abe Sargent]

Stats

Offensive

Passing

QB Curtis – 383 of 588, 4239, 31:9, 97.5 rating

Curtis led the league in yards by 181, scores by 8, and was 3rd in rating but first for 16 game starters. He was pulled in the 4th quarter twice and still Was this good!


Rushing

RB Lincoln – 340 for 1337, 3.93 ypc, 13 scores

2nd in yards by 37, top in scores by 2.


Receiving

https://i.ibb.co/y0Dh50d/Jets-470.png

Here is my receiving list. Springfield finished with a solid number of yards and was 4th in yards but no All Pro again. Flanagan led all TEs by a lot of yards and by scores. Flanagan led my team in scores and was 5 yards short of the first 1000 yard season by a TE in my uber dynasty and that was the best year by a TE I’ve had, Wilkerson netted 750 yard,s Engelberger another All Pro and 4 scores and 327 yards, not as many yards as last year when he had more than 500, but still good, and Lincoln added 3 scores and 365 days in a year in yards. Good stuff catchers!


Blocking

https://i.ibb.co/wJnTHL9/Jets-471.png


Richardson led my team in KRB with 30, which is okay and Vilma did well. Richardson’s 7 pancakes were 2nd most in the league. Rookie Cornyn needed to do better with his 8 sacks that led my team and just 18 KRB.


Special Teams

K Ramirez – 34 of 40, Long of 50, 47 of 48 PAT

Great PAT Numbers! But he needs better on those FG by one or two. Not bad though overall

P Polley – 94 punts, 48.8 avg, 41 inside 20

Great year again!

NO RET TDs

Sloan led my team in special teams tackles with just 19

[Abe Sargent]

Defensive

https://i.ibb.co/JrrR6gf/Jets-472.png

Wagener led my team in tackles but he was really down, and wasn’t good there. He also only had 2 sacks. Speaking of sacks, see that number for McGregor? Nasty! The next highest was 16.5 so he led the league by 3.5 sacks! His 14 blocks led the league and were double the next highest at 7, dude’s a force of disrupting nature. Cox netted me double digit sacks again with 10 and was fine and was 7th most in the league. Hampton grabbed me a studly 7.5 sacks and another All Pro. Ansell netted me 5 sacks in his first year at WLB but I’d like a few more. Sloan though…2.5 sacks? Right after that big pay day and we could have replaced him was Casas at 1.30? That’s not good. Ansell led my team with 4 FF


Pass Coverage

https://i.ibb.co/5TP8jVf/Jets-473.png


This is the first year I’d say we had a “Good Year” in coverage. Geer’s 18 pasdef was 2nd in the league, Anthony and Conway each had at least 4 picks, Wagener needed a pick or two, but I like his large 14 pasdef, Riley’s 2 picks and 11 pasdef are fine, and Hampton had 3 picks and 14 pasdef. Note that nickelback rookie Kocurek was with 3 picks and 9 pasdef as a rookie. Not bad!

[Abe Sargent]

Team Awards


Off. Player of the Year – QB Efrain Curtis – Dude wins a quadfecta, dude wins this award!

Def. Player of the Year – DE Henry McGregor – This 2nd round #32 pick just gave me a ton of sacks and netted me a DPOTY for the league! Nasty!

Special Teams Player of the Year – K Britt Ramirez - Just one missed PAT, and had a solid year for the kicking. Good stuff!

Rookie of the Year – CB Larry Kocurek – 3 picks and 9 pasdef as a rookie? Not bad Larry!

Heart Award – CB Rico Harmon – This backup CB isn’t even a dimeback but he got 1 pick and that was nice!

Hall of Fame Watch


After that year, here are the players on my team and how I rate their HOF chances in order

Most likely

QB Efrain Curtis – Started and won two Super Bowls, and was backup for two more. 2 All Pros, 1 Super Bowl MVP 1 Off. Player of the Year, 1 league MVP. Until this year, I thought Curtis was on the outside looking in, but he exploded this year and really dominated and that helped.

RB Lincoln – 2 league MVPs, 2 Rings, 1 Super Bowl MVP, 3 All pros. Stud RB that has played really well. Could retire tomorrow due to an injury and would be in eh conversation.

SLB Hampton – 2 rings, 4 All Pros, 2 Def. Player of the Year – a clear powerhouse with the inside track on the HOF. Our best D person.

TE Conrad Flanagan – 3 All Pros in 5 years, in a hard to get position where many start but only two get All Pro. Has had dominant roles in the game.

ILB Wagener – 1 Def Player of the Year, 2 All Pros. We need some more All Pros from the guy to get back to form, but if that were to happen? I could see him getting the nod.

DT Sloan – 2 All Pros in 4 years and led the league in sacks one year so far, his low sack total this year would need to be a one of a kind, but a few more All Pros? Likely HOF career.

DE McGregor- Needs to continue, but an All Pro and a Def Player of the Year in his 2nd year is pretty good as astart.

Needs a career resurgence:

WR Springfield – Just one All Pro in 6 years

OC Richardson – Ditto in 6 years

FB Engelberger – Can a FB with a ton of All Pros get in? We’ll find out with Rose in a few years, could Engelberger do so?

DE Cox – One All Pro in 5 years. Needs a few more

[Abe Sargent]

I end the season – I score a 50

We sold 15,500 season tix in our first year

Grizzles

QB Carson Maumau – Stud QB for the Greenville club, 4 Rings, 1.2 pick in 2065, 3 time League MVP, loads of awards.

DT Sebastian Spencer – Stud DT drafted at 3.32 in 2071. 3 Rings, 5 All Pros


Other Abe’s Boys

WR Manual Robinson – Drafted at 2.30, stud WR, 3 Rings, no league awards

OG Troy Poock – Drafted at 1.28 in 2070, stud-ish, OG played by for Eagles as well, 3 Rings, no awards

OT Kody Davison – Another player for both the Grizzlies and my Eagles, drafted 3.28 in 2072, 3 Rings, no awards

K Marty Di Pietro – Our stud K for the Grizzlies, drafted 7.1 in 2066, 4 Rings, 1 All Pro

DE Bucky Polk –Okay DE, drafted 4.28 in 2072, 2 Rings, no awards



Staff Draft

We draft 24th our income rose from 32nd with the new stadium revenue in West Virginia.

I make no changes to our staff

I do not franchise Springfield, which would cost us 39 mill, and we have 37 mill for new players. I also do not franchise OG Powell.

We head to FA!

[Abe Sargent]

The 2082 NFL FA Period #1


We pick 1.32 and I interview potential picks. Burgess dropped to 47/47 and we let him go so I’d love a new ILB to replace him. I interview DCs, LBs, and OTs, and a token DT.

I sign my RFAs I care to. I don’t sign 3. We have 47 on my roster.

Extensions

Starters

SILB Wagener, 116 mill, 4 years, 13 mill savings this year – I do it, he’s too good not to and I have the cash.
SLB Hampton, 213 mill,4 years, increase of 3 mill - I do it, 2 time NFL DPotY gets his money.
K Ramirez, 75 mill, 4 years, drop of 2 mill – I sign him
DE Cox – 94 mill, 4 years, drop of 3 mill - I hold off until post draft

Backups

QB Bonila, I extend him just 1 extra year, as I need tol let him head out as I need to bring another backup QB that’s better


I also have key backups like DE Moorehead, and WILB Law and WR Blackwell coming up, and I’ll wait until post draft for that.

Do I want to chase any of my UFAs? Springfield? 180 mill for 4 years? Nope! Good luck! Powell? 130 mill, 4 years? Nope! Good luck too!

Week 2 – Springfield heads to the Colts

Week 4 – Powell heads to the Packers

I’ll see you at the draft!

[Abe Sargent]

The 2082 NFL Amateur Draft

Ready for the third injection of talent for the decade?

Picking 1.1 is… Portland and I think the Pioneers will go with a stud RB Cary Dionne. And they take… OT Blake Esparza. Reach. Dionne heads off the board at the 1.5 spot to Indy. This is a deep RB draft and my hope is that we can grab a better backup for Lincoln.

We head to 1.32!

RB Alan Miller – I didn’t waste interviews on RBs, but his bars looks great for the 1.32 spot. He’s only a runner, and not good at the catching.
OG Cris Stephenson – As Scouted, looks like an OG version of Vilma that can really only do the run blocking although he’s really good at STR as well.
SLB Phil Parker – 3rd best player on the board, okay bars, very underrated



Here, wanna see the three options I’m considering?

https://i.ibb.co/42zhw7C/Jets-474.png


Here’s the Parker, he’s the project of the three. He’s a solid entrant and looks good for pass rush and thinking and hitting but weak at run d and just okay at coverage. I could move him to ILB but I really would prefer a Run D better for my inner pair.

https://i.ibb.co/7tw6Gk3/Jets-475.png

Here’s Stephenson. As Scouted. This is the safe pick, but LG is my lowest need as I extended Schau and drafted a better OG in the 1st last year. But he’s certainly a solid and safe(ish) pick for my squad. He can’t block a pass rusher if you spot him 2 seconds but he’s well rounded otherwise.

https://i.ibb.co/x7bfzyh/Jets-476.png


And here’s Miller. This is a deep draft for them, and as you can see he’s way better than you’d expect for 1.32. How many RBs went in the 1st before us? 5. Which is par for the course. My backup RB is siting at 35/35, and we really need a better one. Lincoln is in his 6th year and will start to fall, and could be injured at any time. (although I don’t recall him ever being even probable) Do I want to risk it? This is also insurance for when Lincoln falls which could happen in a year or three. He’s tied for the 2nd best RB in the league, prior to the draft, and falling to 70/70 or 68/68 should still play well.

What would you do?

[Abe Sargent]

I do the safe pick and grab Stephenson. The others are just too much of a gamble. His RB is much better than Schau’s.


2.32 – Who do I like here? RB Jameson Flanders? OT Phil McCulley? WLB Jerry Schindler? SLB Demetrius Turpin? I love them all. I go Flanders I need a quality backup to RB. We are smashmouth offense. He looks like a solid grower.


3.32 – WR Cody Martin? He looks solid. I grab him I need a 5th WR.


4.32 – How about QB Norman Moya who is the best on the board? I grab him.


5.32 – OG Bryson Witcher? Yup! This is Stephenson insurance of busting. It’ll also let me cut Schau as he looks to be pretty good.


6.32 – WR Mercury Elsea? He looks solid and like a BAP so I grab him. This is also insurance in case Martin busts. He;s also good at KR.


7.32 – CB Heath May? MLB Roderick Sienkiewicz? I go MLB. He’s a looker but this time I hope he won’t fall.

Flanders rose! Good stuff. But the big boom? Moya, which I didn’t see as amid 50s QB in the 4.32 I was already fine. Witcher boomed hard as well and I now have 3 OGs with a 70+ pot. He’s a pass blocking specialist.

QB Curtis – 308 of 516, 3326, 20:7, 86.9 rating

Wow


Rushing

RB Lincoln – 315 for 1130, 3.59 ypc, 9 scores

Not sure why he won All Pro he was 6th in yards, and 4th in scores


Receiving

https://i.ibb.co/n37bLTq/Jets-477.png

Wilkerson started strong and then faded as the team did. Flanagan was 2nd on my team for yards but down 200+ from last year. Robinson was 3rd with 567 yards and 2 score, and Lincoln got me just 464 yards and another 3 scores. Engelberger his first non-All Pro season. Not good here either.


Blocking

https://i.ibb.co/THbs0db/Jets-478.png

A fine year by Richardson and Cornyn…but the rest? Rookie Stephenson was with a low 14 KRB and just 4 sacks allowed. Not bad and he was 3rd, but you hope for better


Special Teams

K Ramirez – 34 of 40, Long of 52, 33 of 40 PAT

Way too many missed PATs.

P Polley – 113 kicks, 50.2 average,48 in the 20

I don’t recall a punting season this good ever. Certainly not in this dynasty.

WR Ellis – THREE KR RET Scores!

Sloan led my team in special teams tackles with 21.

[Abe Sargent]

Defensive



https://i.ibb.co/Z6tpcnz/Jets-479.png


Anthony led my team with a ton of tackles and Wagener’s number rose nicely. McGregor netted me another nice 12 sacs and Sloan’s 9.5 gave him 2nd on the squad and his 3rd All Pro. Ansell notched 7.5 sacks and Cox just 6.5. Not bad. Sloan also led my team with 5 FF.


Pass Coverage

https://i.ibb.co/hKTGrHP/Jets-480.png

Wow, hello Conway! He grabbed me a ton of picks and was 2 off the leader at 9. He grabbed me 13 pasdef as well, and Anthony netted me a nice 4 picks and 10 pasdef. Wagener was back with 3 picks and led all LBs with picks and 12 pasdef as well.

[Abe Sargent]

Team Awards

Off. Player of the Year – RB Harold Lincoln – My only All Pro on offense. Dude wins All Pro…

Def. Player of the Year – S Tyler Conway – 7 picks and 13 pasdef both of which led my team. Got his first All Pro! Good stuff!

Special Teams Player of the Year – P Heath Polley – Nasty year, the best of a P in this dynasty. Netted an All Pro. Great job!

Rookie of the Year – OG Cris Stepheson – He sort of won this by default.

Heart Award – WR Billy Ellis - 3 KR RET Scores? Great job Billy!

The 2083 NFL Offseason


Hall of Fame

None


Retirements of Note

Miners?

Nope


Grizzlies?

OC Carlton Darby – 1.28 pick in the 2072 draft, stud, 3 Rings, no awards


Other Abe’s Boys

CB Ivan Clinton- Drafted 4.28 in 2074, 2 Rings, no awards

SS Colin Carr – Stud, drafted 1.30 in 2069, 3 Rings, 3 All Pros


Staff Draft

We pick 25th

No changes to my staff

Whoops, I forgot to sign Cox…tagging him is 46 mill too much – I do it I think he’ll sign for less

[Abe Sargent]

The 2083 NFL FA Period #1

We sign Cox to 3 years, 86 mill and drop his cap hit by 20 mill

I interview players that might want to be there at 1.24. I need a better LB. I also interview DBs and OTs.

I sign my RFAs that I care to and we have 46 on my roster and 11 mill available

Key Extensions


Vets

QB Curtis – Current cap hit of 92 mill, we extend him by an extra year and his cap hit drops by 22 mill

SS Anthony – I extend him by 3 years and drop our cap by 3 mill

RB Lincoln – Wants 4 years, for 171 mill, cap hit drop of 13 mill, but this would take him through his 11th year. I do so.

TE Flanagan – Wants 127 mill for 4 years, and this drops his cap hit by 6 mill. I do so

FS Conway – Wants 52 mill, 3 years, drop fo cap by 1.5 mill. I do so


Former Rookies Looking for their First Deal

DE McGregor – Wants 140 mill for 4 years, increase of cap by 22 mill

CB Geer – Wants 147 mill for 4 years, increase of cap hit by 22 mill as well

WR Wilkerson - Wants 127 mill for 4 years, increase of cap hit by 21 mill

WLB Ansell – Wants 122 mill for 5 years, increase of cap hit by 14 mill

That’s a lot for four studs. I have 51 mill for new players right now, so I can only sign two with my current cash outlet. I can move CB Kucorek to cover Geer and that’s one player done. Of the other three, Wilkerson and McGregor seems the most valuable. I wait until post-draft to figure this stuff out.

Should I cut Riley and his freed 35 mill and extend Geer?

I don’t chase any of my UFAs

Week 5 – DE Moorehead heads to Buffalo

[Abe Sargent]

The 2083 NFL Amateur Draft

Picking 1.1 is… Green Bay. I think they’ll go with stud RB Jared Gash. Called it! He was the third best player on the board. I’ll see you in 23!


1.24 – Who do I like here?

SS Alex Hickman – Good bars, very overrated
SLB Leland Smith – Okay bars, Hard to Read
SLB Clarence Hines – 2nd best LB on the board, Hard to Read, okay bars, not great
MLB Earl Robinson – 3rd best LB on the board, Very Overrated
CB Dalton Villarreal – Top CB on the board, no interviews, okay bars
Cb Damien Anthony – Also on the board, no interview, okay bars
CB Shawn Theurer – 3rd CB on the board, no interview, better bars

Hmmmm

Here is Shawn Theurer.

https://i.ibb.co/NnttRtx/Jets-481.png


He’s good at Run D, picks, two out of three coverages, and thinking, but weak at punching and bumpin and runnin. Is he the obvious choice here? Do I go with someone else?

Let me think about it…

[Abe Sargent]

I’m doing it. He’s from Marshall and will stay in state and play in WV. How could I not?


2.24 – Who do I like here? Who is the BAP? Earl Robinson is still on the board but he’s very overrated. Next player? DE Omar Wheeler. Is this a bit high for a DE? No. I take him he looks like a growe.r


3.24 – WLB Devonte Bullock? I do it. Done!


4.24 – I need to grab OT Miguel Dusek.


5.24 – BAP? CB Donnell Twitty? Okay. He’s from Fairfield U in Fairfield CT where I worked for 3 years


6.24 – DE Graham White? Okay! He’s insurance against a bust by Wheeler.


7.24 – WILB Tanner Ristic? Yup! He’s protection from a Bullock bust.

Just 7 suspensions this year which is still a huge number

[Abe Sargent]

The NFL 2083 FA Period #2

I cut Riley. He’s in his 8th year and is 29 years old, and he just has one All Pro despite being a great player, and has underperformed his talent. I‘ll give him a shot to sign in the FA Period.

McGregor is a holdout and I sign him.

I chase these rookies

The 2083 NFL Preseason

I cut CB Rico Rodham to give him a chance to sign w/o dropping.

I hand out rests and make my roster. We’ll start my 1st round pick and Bullock after I moved him to WILB.

Week 2 – At LV – We win 14-9

Week 3 – Baltimore – We win 44-20

Week 4 – KC – We lose 23-26

7.24 – WILB Tanner Ristic, Army, 26/52; 32/54; 34/56

Bullock didn’t bust! Wow. Solid increase by Dusek and he’s now a much better backup. Nice boom by Twitty and wow White. I cut Cox and move White to start for me at DE. Cox had a great career for me and played better than he looked, which was great, but he’s older and with just one All Pro, there was no major reason to keep him.

Wow hello Ott! Noice! This was a very deep D Back draft, as you can see.

I cut these players

WR Rondell Givens

[Abe Sargent]

Extensions

I extend TE Chesier by a year for just 5 mill next year.

I extend Wilkerson who dropped to 58/58 and Ansell.


Do I even need to extend Geer?

Geer – 75/75
Twitty - 39/65
Ott – 34/60
Kocurek – 59/59

I could extend Geer, sure…but I could also just start Twitty next year. It’s only a drop-off of 10.


Geer looks good… but here are his numbers:

2080 – 2 picks, 8 pasdef
2081 – 2 picks, 18 pasdef – his best year by pasdef
2082 – 3 picks, 7 pasdef

Just 7 picks in 3 years starting with a 75 ability…couldn’t Twitty get me 2 or 3 pick years with his 65/65?

I won’t extend Geer, but if he plays up to his potential I’ll maybe cap him. I start Twitty at nickel to give him that experience.

I have 45 mill for new players and…

Are there any with 2 years I may want to extend?

I sign

OG Thornton - 5 years, 78 mill
NT Henry Cote – 4 years, 36 mill

Wanna see my rookies now?

https://i.ibb.co/xjdsZYH/Jets-482.png


Here is the uneven Theurer who is great at Run D, zone, play D and picks, and horrible at hitting, man and bump. He’s fine!

Next?

I’ll skip my big nasty 2nd round bust…

https://i.ibb.co/hHGwKM1/Jets-483.png


We’ll look at my best pick and only stud DE Graham White at 6.24. Great guy right? Right! I like him too. He’s fine at run or pass or thinking or hitting, no major strengths or weaknesses.

[Abe Sargent]

The Green Page?

White and Theurer

Rookie Investigation

QB – 3 in the 60s and that’s it

RB – 4 in the 60s, and that’s it. Notice a theme?

FB – 2 60s, 1 at 51. Come on FB you ruined the theme!

TE – None, wow.

Wr – 70, 5 50s

C – 70, 59

OG – 2 70s, 2 60s, 2 50s. Trend? How many 40s? 5. Ah well, trend ruined.

OT – 1 70, 5 50s, ours was 3rd best in the league.

DL – 71, 70 – Ours is the best! 4 60s, 8 50s. That doubled each time, another trend!

LB – 1 60, Bullock, ours with the top spot. 10 50s. Ristic is the 5th best in the draft.

DB – 1 80, 1 70, 7 60s, 13 50s. Wow. Deep is right! Theurer is tied for 3rd best with three total DBs with a 67 pot, Twitty is the 6th best.

Good stuff!

[Abe Sargent]

The 2083 NFL Regular Season

Last year we had an epic collapse in the second half of the season after a nice 7-1 opening. I think this year we’ll finish better with a 13-3 and be more consistent. I came out of preseason with a single probable injury free which means we’ll have a rough regular season!

Week 1 – Greenville – Our old team arrives and we begin our third season in Charleston, WV at home against the Grizzlies. We thump them 44-10. MVP is Curtis who is 26 of 40, 322 and 3:0, hitting for scores Tito Robinson (who was 9 for 128 on the day), Wilkerson and RB Lincoln. Lincoln was 12 for 106 and backup RB Flanders was 14 for 144 and 2 scores. I massage my depth chart as I still want to ride Lincoln. Picks by S Anthony and CB Linquist, 5 KRB by OG Thornton and OT Cornyn.


I have an idea. Here is my starter at OC in Year 8

88 Run Blocking
67 Pass Blocking
7 Str
47 End

Overall 60/60

I have three stud OGs. Should I move OG 55/69 Cris Stephenson over to OC? He has

65/87 – Run
27/37 = Pass
83 Str
35/42 End

Both are the same in RB which is key in a year in which I have a smashmouth offense. The OC is getting older in his 8th year and Stephenson is getting better in his 2nd year. He drops to 46/66 and I move him to start

Week 2 – At Buffalo – We win 30-10. MVP is Curtis who is 26 of 33, 244 and 1:0, hitting Lincoln for the score – Lincoln is 30 for 148 and 1 rush score, pick by S Anthony, FF by Anthony and DE Cox, rec by DT Slaon and LB Wagener, and Wagener rec for a TD, 2 sacks by DE Cox,

We have 3 questionables and 4 probables coming out of that game.

Week 3 – Carolina – We win 36-10. MVp? Its Curtis who is 21 of 29 for 344 and 1:1 hitting for a score FB Engelberger, Robinson was 7 for 128, Lincoln was 34 for 116 and 2 scores. 4 KRB by OT Vilma.


Week 4 – BYE BYE BYE

Just two injuries left

Week 5 – At Seattle – We defeat them 21-13. Curtis is MVP with 22 of 31, 303 and 1:0, netting a score to WR Cody Martin, 2 picks by S Anthony, 3 FF By DE McGregor, another by Anthony, rec by Cox2 and DT Sloan. 2.5 sacks by McGregor,

Rookie first round pick CB Theurer is out with a concussion for a few weeks. I massage my depth chart.

We finish 4-0 at the first quarter.

[Abe Sargent]

Week 6 – Augusta – Hello! We defeat them 26-3. Curtis is the Game MVP with 25 of 33, 208 and 1:0, score by Engelberger, Lincoln was 29 for 106 and 1 score, picks by S Anthony and WLB Ansell, 3 pasdef by Wagener.

C Stephenson is out for a week

Week 7 – At DC – Our rivals. We win a shootout 38-35. RB Lincoln is MVP with 24 of 162, 1 score and Curtis was 21 of 34, 256 and 3:1, scores to WR Wilkerson x2 and Lincoln. Pick six by CB Linquist, 5 KRB BY C Richardson

WR Robinson is out for a while and Stephenson is back. I place my top WR on IR and sign a replacement off the FA.


Week 8 – NYG – We win 34-14. Curtis, MVP, 29 of 47, 365 and 2:0; scores by rookie WR Elsea and Lincoln, Wilkerson was 9 for 115. Lincoln with two rush scores. FF by SLB Hampton and DE Cox. REC by WLB Ansell and McGregor. 2.5 sacks by Cox. 3 pasdef by S Conway,

CB Theurer is back


Week 9 - At LA Rams – We lose 27-20. Lincoln 19 for 101 yards, Curtis was 27 of 44, 240 and 1:1, score by Wilkerson, 5 KRB by Richardson.

We are 7-1.

[Abe Sargent]

Week 10 – 4-5 SF – We win 37 – 10 – MVP is Curtis 28 of 39, 325 and 3:1, scores by Lincolnx2 and TE Cheshier, Wilkerson is 7 for 133, fumrec TD by Linquist, 5 pasdef by rookie CB Theurer,

Stats

Offensive

Passing

QB Curtis – 379 of 562, 4249 yards, 26:7, 95.0 rating

He was 2nd in rating, 3rd in TD passes and most in yards. Good year buddy!

Rushing

RB Lincoln – 420 for 1606, 3.81 ypc, 12 TDs

2nd most yards, the most scores, I was expecting a #2 All Pro, but I’ll take a better slate awards for the RB.

Receiving

https://i.ibb.co/Vx5K5pp/Jets-500.png

Wilkerson took over for a wounded Robinson and came out with a 1078 yard season which is pretty good for the season. He was 8th most in yards. Lincoln was 2nd in yards with 742 which is more than he has ever done by a lot. Dude is not a target. Flanagan was 3rd with a very down year for the All Pro TE. Engelberger another All Pro season with 4 scores at the FB spot. Dude is a weapon

Blocking


https://i.ibb.co/2c4F1td/Jets-501.png

Thornton led my team with 29 KRB which isn’t where you want a 1st round stud OG to be. All of my starters were with 20+ KRB which was nice though!


Special Teams

K Ramirez – 45 of 58, Long of 59, 43/43 PAT

Not great with the FG% but he led the league in FGs made. Good stuff!


P Polley – 86 for 48.4 avg, and 41 in 20

Not bad stats for this stud either! Great in 20 %.

No KR?PR RET TDs

DT Sloan led my team in special teams tackles with just 17
