7. (rufftime) No offense taken.  Perhaps I should be past the video game phase...but a) I am still in many respects a kid at heart;  b)  Nobody would bat an eye if an old guy played chess (which I play), golf (do NOT play)f, poker (do NOT play), etc.  If technology affords me the option of playing video games, why shouldn't I?  If they were the old shoot em up games of old like Galaga or Centipede, etc., perhaps I would have moved on by now.  By the games of today are so much more advanced, have sophisticated plots, character development, and variations of strategy and puzzles to solve, it keeps things fresh.  They are in many instances like interactive movies.  I play PS4 and some PS3 games, though I use it as much for streaming as I do games..  Have not gotten a PS5.  Play Madden and the Naughty Dog games (The Last of Us, the Uncharted series-currently on 4), Far Cry 3 and 5, Witcher III.  Over the years, I have also enjoyed the Hitman, Fallout and Romance of the Three Kingdons series.  Had to reboot my system so a lost my progress in most of those games. (Apologies for the wrong forum post)

(Firesky)  That's actually a good idea.  I had already started looking at TEs (The guys from Iowa State and Wisconsin).  I will probably shift my focus onto offensive and defensive linemen and LBs before too long.  I'm just glad for once we don't have to look at QBs so closely.

3. I know personally if we had not drafted Lawrence, I would not be thrilled with this offseason. Happy to be proven wrong, but to me it looks like we are heading down the path of Ryan Grigson’s Colts. An absolute gimme pick at QB number one overall that will not be good enough to overcome a weak administration. However, I think he will be good enough to make them look good in the short term until we hit the wall in the playoffs year after year.

7. On the video game point: if you like games like Fallout and Witcher, you may like “The Outer Worlds.” The story is great! It is a game you can really dive into. Lots of hours of game play to pass the dead zone.
