A pass for me. Gym shape is not the same as game shape. Also it depends how much money he wants. I don’t know how many times TO tried to get back in the NFL with a super gym physique. I think a few games in, he ended up tearing something..

Older Fluker > Storm Norton LOL!

sign him to play safety?

That video made me chuckle a bit, the way they shot it with him standing like that reminded me of when you are getting ready to pick your character in a video game, LOL, ….he posed while someone with a phone walked a semi circle around him…

Maybe he could be our short yardage RB.

"Draft Day" starring Kevin Costner.

LOL...that scene when GM Costner is on the clock and says, "what else do we need?" Does he consult the big board? No. Does he consult his HC? Nope. Who does he turn to? Of course! His accountant secret girlfriend!!! The one who pipes up, "SPECIAL TEAMS!!!" Ah, always good for a laugh...ONLY in the movies...

what else do we need draft day.jpg

All good, wasn't offended

Nope.

I feel reasonably optimistic about being a playoff contender next year but the depth concerns me a bit. They have to draft better in the mid rounds with the growing cap issues. AFC is tough and so is schedule so they have to play better this year and a big part will be staying healthier. Looking forward to Kellen Moore replacing Lombardi.

See KC's draft last season and see ours... Our first round pick and 6th round pick were the only players that really contributed! TT needs to have a better draft this time. Really think he should trade down if the right player isn't there at 21~

I’ll start paying attention when I see footage from Big Fluke at Duke’s

our seond round pick contributed a lot. Otherwise I agree he needs to up his game from middle-of-pack to above average.

Just curious - how did KC’s 2021 draft pan out, have you looked? (Honest question, I don’t know)

Good...considering they didn't have a first round pick and only had 6 picks

Took Nick Bolton, a good looking LB and got 2 starting offensive lineman....Creed Humphrey who many think is already the best center in the NFL and they stole Trey Smith in the 6th round

Wonder if Fluke went to Duke's Summer Fun Camp...The "Duke Fluke Reboot"...

Kind of like Refrigerator 2.0? Cut Horvath and sign Fluke...

That just confirms that he wasn’t dedicated when he had his shot, he was just getting by, he should’ve been like this since before he got drafted…

When he was drafted, he was a national champion, why would he change a thing?
Maybe my memory is failing but I don't remember anything suggesting he didn't do anything his coaches were asking of him, so to me that's hardly "just getting by"
It's normal and impressive for veterans who haven't lived up to their draft status to have some time of reflection and change their approach, good for him, I don'tthink his feet are much lighter but considering our lack of OL depth, I'd be disappointed if we didn't at least LOOK.
