Darian Mensah comparison

The thing that stands out most to me with Mensah is his poise and calmness in the pocket. Dude just looks so relaxed and nothing phases him.

Yup. That's why I agree w Montana and Moon. Mobile guys who prefer to stay in the pocket and not scramble unless absolutely necessary. Arms not the strongest but still plenty strong - and most importantly very accurate.

Bob Avelini - yup, you're old. I am too. :LOL: I cheated on the Marlin Briscoe name - he was a little before my time. The rest came off the top of my head. I grew up rooting for the Lions and thought Billy Sims was going to be the savior. It was around that time I saw Vince Evans play. At one point, he tried resurrecting his career sort of, with the Raiders. I also remember Matt Suhey, Gary Fencik, Dave Duerson and a few others from those early 80's, pre-Ditka teams. Obv I remember Sweetness too.

Suhey just passed away. My neighbor went to his funeral a couple days ago. He was struggling for a while and wasn’t too old.

I saw a headline mentioning he passed away recently. Real bummer.
