Often a favourite around here, the 2017 Packers will continue to go against the grain in the NFL in modern times, and be very successful at that - they're just about equal favourites with the Seahawks to take out the NFC for the first time since 2010. Site favourite Jordy Nelson will return...

I have some time to spare so I'll quickly do the Packers and Chiefs

After a really poor few years after firing Harbaugh, the niners have struggled under Tomsula and Kelly, because of basically, poor QB play, poor running game, poor receivers, and an overall poor defence. Out go Kelly and the terrible GM Trent Baalke, and in come former Falcons OC Kyle Shanahan...

I'll take the niners and get started on it now.

He's too slow, not athletic enough, not dark skinned enough...we heard all that about Chris Borland and he had a fantastic rookie season, if only he continued playing...hopefully the niners have found the Borland replacement. Bowman has become a poor MLB since he hurt his knee real bad a few...

Unfortunately Tomlinson got traded to the niners for a fifth (!!) round pick. Will be a back-up unless injury happens - Beadles, Kilgore and Fusco are definite starters on the interior OL, but he'll be first up to fail should one of those three get injured as the rest of the niners OL depth is poor.

Bosa and Hubbard both with a sack in the opener, good signs

I only just realised Tank Carder was white when you said that aha (I don't see much of the Browns, in Australia we have limited TV access to three games a week so understandably they have the three biggest match-ups they can) - good to see he's listed as starter at MLB! Hopefully he and the very...

Or have it that teams can only have up to a certain quota of players from the state the college is in (and maybe the state over if the college is close to the border) - maybe half a dozen out of state players each.

Renfrow still has two years of football left at Clemson - so much could happen in those two years, looks like he'll be their starting slot receiver for 2017 so definitely has the chance to go produce and make a name for himself outside of the championship game touchdowns.

Jonah Williams definitely has top-10 draft pick written all over him for when he declares, hopefully he can solidify that this season and possibly climb even higher.

Just from a quick look at his Wikipedia, he's been charged/arrested for: Assault Assault Vandalism Pot possession Obstruction of justice Public intoxication Disorderly conduct Assault (on a woman) Assault (on a woman) Threat to life Assault (on a woman) Basically told a guy to go shoot up a...

Modelling themselves on their NFL counterpart I see. They mustn't be able to remember the reasons they made four Super Bowls in the 90s.

2012 - 8 starting whites, 8-5 record (bowl win vs West Virginia) 2013 - 7 starting whites, 7-6 record (bowl win vs Minnesota) 2014 - 4 starting whites, 3-9 record 2015 - 3 starting whites, 4-8 record 2016 - 3 starting whites, 4-8 record No surprises about that correlation. Maybe if they...

Unfortunately NBA is by far the most popular US sport here in Australia - it's seen as the "cool" "hip" and "trendy" thing to follow, and Australians have been doing alright recently (Bogut, Dellevedova, Mills, Baynes etc). NFL and MLB have mild followings, while NHL has next to no presence...

Do we count Taylor Rapp? From what I've heard his dad is white and mom is Chinese.

Funny thing is, Robinson was taken over 2016 pro bowlers Taylor Lewan and Zack Martin (also all pro), while Bitonio and Jake Matthews have also been good. What a bust, but I'm sure his upside will get him a roster spot and starting position. Only upside he has is to break the season records for...

Ross, definitely - only has one real skill - running in a straight line without pads, a helmet, or opponents. To take him in the top 10 is laughable, but at least it might help Dalton somewhat. Howard - next to no production aside from one game, apparently all upside but will never succeed as...

Mine in order: 1. Australian rules football (being an Aussie this is an easy choice!) 2. College football 3. Pro football 4. Baseball 5. Ice Hockey 6. Tennis 7. Rugby Union 8. Rugby League 9. College basketball 10. Golf

Great stuff Tanner! But I'm afraid as a white WR he'll have to do this every day up until the first game of the season to stand a chance at the 53-man roster. Imagine Trubisky throwing to Gentry, Braverman, and Shaheen! Four young stars loaded with potential and production (when allowed to)

Former Oregon and Packers TE Colt Lyerla has been hospitalised on a heroin overdose after escaping Washington County Jail, two months into a six month sentence for heroin possession. Such a shame, he had fantastic talent and athletic ability and now he's an addict and escaping jail, could've...

At the end of the day he looks very white so I'm sure he's been discriminated against right through his career as a WR, good luck to him I'd say no matter his true racial makeup

Doug Whaley fired - probably because he drafted way too many white players (three, two LBs and a QB)

Second year in a row we've had the first pick of the fourth round/day three be a Wisconsin linebacker!

Players from the Texas Tech top 10 passing yardage leaders this century: 1st, Graham Harrell - undrafted, 2009 2nd, Kliff Kingsbury - pick 201, 2003, threw two NFL passes 3rd, Patrick Mahomes - pick 10, 2017 4th, Seth Doege - undrafted, 2013 6th, Taylor Potts - undrafted, 2011 9th, BJ Symons -...
