Re: BUSINESS HORSE 2025 NFL MOCK DRAFT EXTRAVAGANZA


Pleased that Washington selected the least least impressive of the two tackles that Business Horse didn't like enough to rank.

Re: Excel

When I need to do this I usually use the ROW function. ie if it starts in column A row 5 I'd use =ROW(A5)-4 and copy that the whole way down. You could just use =A5+1 in A6 and copy that down but if you delete a row anywhere in there it would screw everything up. I'd have to see the file to see ...

Re: BUSINESS HORSE 2025 NFL MOCK DRAFT EXTRAVAGANZA

McNeigh's an idiot.

In all seriousness though I didn't stick to my guns and drop Sanders out of the first round. I think his talent dictated a second round pick or somewhere in that range; the point where Dillon Gabriel was taken was where it seemed to get personal.

Is there another non-conspiracy option besides “this kid is such a dick, we can’t have him as a non-starter in the QB room”?


I thought going in that he was a round 3-ish type of talent. After Dillon Gabriel went ahead of him, that seems to be when it got personal.

As expected, tariffs are (mostly) gone on a random whim.

You can also use a line fit as an approximate formula, those numbers give you:
