The 49ers should have drafted Brock Purdy earlier

Frank the tank did bemoan that the Dolphins should have drafted... sorry, Brock Purdy. I do think that that will be a real take that people will say, well they should have drafted Brock Purdy, Mr. Irrelevant.

Hot TakeFootballHotSarcastic
Purdy's continued success led to many legitimate 're-draft' articles, making this a prescient observation of media trends.

The college football playoff semifinals were the best in history

The best college football playoffs we've ever seen. Semi-finals. I like how people were tweeting, like is it a hot take to say these are the best semi-finals we've ever seen? No, they usually always suck. And those were two incredible games.

The games were objectively some of the highest-scoring and closest in CFP history to that point.

The 2022 Buccaneers are flawed but have learned the lessons they need for a playoff run

It looks like the Bucks have actually looked at what's made them flawed and then realized there are certain things that we can do good. Let's lean into those things... as if it turns out that still throwing deep balls to Mike Evans works.

The Bucs lost their first playoff game 31-14 to the Cowboys, so the 'lessons learned' didn't lead to a run.

Mike Evans is a Hall of Famer

Mike Evans is a hall of famer. Yeah. Which is crazy cuz it's, it doesn't, it feel like he's had a very good career, but then when you stop and you look at it, you're like, holy shit. He's, he's got 81 touchdowns in his career. If he gets to a hundred, he'll be top 10 all time in touchdowns. Everyone in the top 15 is in the Hall of Fame. Every single year he's been in the NFL nine years. Every year he's gotten over a thousand yards and he's not even 30 yet.

Evans extended his streak to 10 consecutive seasons in 2023 and is widely considered a future Hall of Famer, though his career is still active.

The Ravens are using a physical loophole to back out of the Maxx Crosby trade

I'm calling bullshit on all this. It does feel like something's fishy here. And maybe it's just the Ravens using the loophole of, hey, we can see, we can trade for Maxx Crosby, see how the rest of free agency plays out, knowing that this stupid legal tampering and then official free agency, there's a two day gap and then just figure it out later.

The trade was literally rescinded, but the 'nefarious loophole' theory is a subjective interpretation of front office tactics.

The NFL needs a 'no-backsies' rule for players who post elaborate social media goodbye videos

If you post a 13 minute goodbye video on social media like Maxx Crosby did, that should just be trade final. You can't come back on that... I actually am rooting for Maxx Crosby to be on the Raiders now because that will be so awkward and funny.

This is a humorous rule proposal, not a verifiable prediction.

The Panthers were right to overpay for Jaelan Phillips

The Panthers getting Jaelan Phillips, even though it was a lot of money, I feel like you gotta do it. Cap went up and I feel like you have to do those type of moves, especially when you are a playoff team from last year. Your defense was a problem... I'd be like, oh, Howie's interested? I'll give him more money.

The success of the Panthers' defense with Phillips will determine if the overpay was justified.
