Roger's Reviews

Post Rookie Draft — initial reaction, no performance data

Ladies and gentlemen, the league office has completed its review of the Brady's Out 2025 rookie draft class, and Roger is prepared to render judgment. The 1.05 pick — taken a full 16 slots ahead of consensus — is the kind of reach that makes the podium shake; Collin apparently looked at picks 1 through 4 going off the board and said "no, I know something," which is a sentence that has ended careers. On the other end of the ledger, the 3.05 is the steal of Collin's draft — grabbing a consensus top-15 talent at pick 29 is the sort of thing that makes other owners quietly delete their texts. The middle three picks are fine, competent, responsible — words Roger did not expect to use in a Brady's Out review. A B overall, which for a guy whose team is named after a retired quarterback is, frankly, aspirational.

Year-End Retrospective — with performance baked in

Ladies and gentlemen, the league office has completed its formal post-mortem review of the Brady's Out 2025 rookie class — and Roger will be honest, he expected worse from a man who named his team after a retirement and still hasn't emotionally recovered. Collin's third-round pick at 3.05 is the crown jewel here: drafted well, performed well, composite 82 — that's the kind of pick that makes Roger briefly consider complimenting a Patriots fan before thinking better of it. The 1.05, meanwhile, is the draft's dirty little secret — taken at 58 on draft day and somehow outperformed expectations enough to claw a 68 composite, which is fine, but "fine" is just failure with better PR. The 2.12 sitting at a 66 composite is genuinely the problem child — underperformed an already-modest draft-day grade, and per Article 11, Section 3(c) of the league by-laws, that is the official definition of a waste of a pick Collin could have traded to Jeremy for three more picks Jeremy will also waste. Overall B, dynasty purgatory maintained — Brady's Out remains the most emotionally stable and competitively mediocre franchise in the shield, and Roger means that in the most condescending way possible.
