    The Dallas Cowboys Memorial (2015 Off-Season) Thread

    Well, DGB is immature/lazy, so I'm sure taking a year off of football didn't help his combine performance at all. Look, I'm not saying he won't be a huge bust, I think there's a better chance he will be than won't be, but the physical tools are all there to be a once-a-decade type talent at...

    Mizzou with 4 draft picks in the top 60, I'm happy. One first rounder (Ray) and 3 2nd rounders (DGB, Mitch Morse, Marcus Golden)

    DGB played as a true Freshman and Soph at Mizzou. His Soph year he led the SEC in receiving TDs, tied with Senior Mike Evans, and ahead of names like Odell Beckham, Sammie Coates, Amari Cooper, etc. DGB had more raw talent than any WR in this draft. From apurely athleticstandout he's Calvin...

    I always had my doubts about Gregory, I couldn't believe it when "experts" were projecting him as one of the top 2 or 3 DE/OLBs in the draft. He's a 230lb DE, and not overly fast despite that he's so much lighter than most other defensive ends. Hell, at 230lbs he's undersized for a LB in the NFL

    Witcher 3

    If you want to run Witcher 3 on Ultra settings at 1080p I wouldn't bet on anything less than a 290x/780/970 pulling it off, and keeping you above 30fps at all times. If you're doing 1440p and want ultra, better have a 780ti/980. If you want to do it at 4k, better have SLI'd 980s/780Tis. Just...

    I think I'd be more ok with it if I could guarantee the same gender as the 1st, so we could use hand-me-down everything. That would save TONS of money. If we end up with a girl and have to buy all new clothes, toys, etc, thats going to cost a damn fortune.

    lol goddamn chiefs. Make a pick and all the experts can do is talk about what is wrong with him. Good ol Chiefs! We draft Tackles that can't play tackle(Eric Fisher), REceivers that can't catch(Jonathan Baldwin), why not a CB that may spend more time suspended than on the field. Makes sense.

    I'll go ahead and pencil in Mizzou as a not-so-dark dark horse for the top 10. We aren't going to drop off much from last year. Our defense might actually be better, despite losing two DEs to the NFL (Shane Ray and Marcus Golden). QB is back, our WRs are better, our RBs are better(if healthy...

    Is a 980 going to fit in that case? The 980 itself is almost a foot long, and your case is only 13" deep. Depending on the placement of drive bays and stuff, it might not fit.

    50% isn't completely unrealistic. I definitely wouldn't bet on much more than that. The jump from a 780 to a 980 was anywhere from 20%-50% depending on the game.(bigger jump at 1440p/4k resolutions than at 1080p). Of course price is also a factor. If I remember correctly, the 780 launched...

    both leagues need to go DH. Randy Johnson hurt himself batting back in the day, so have several other pitchers. no one is going to miss a .090 hitter that can't do anything but bunt at the bottom of each lineup. Pitcher batting makes as much sense as making QBs play on kickoff coverage.
