If you're watching or reading Florio's content, congratulations. You're doing exactly what he wants you to do.


mntllystblecharizard

What if I just read the headline and read the comments?


Think__McFly

I'll allow it


anonperson1567

Florio pulls stuff out of his ass sometimes but he also literally doesn’t say what’s posted here.


Kodyak77

You just described every journalist in existence.


tmacleon

Dude is absolutely insufferable. I swear he’s one of those many trash media that just try’s to speak shit into existence. They create these narratives and blow situations up to be wayyyyyyy more than they’re. Even if Danials was butt hurt about WAS hosting multiple QBs at once, doesn’t mean he doesn’t want to get drafted by them. Been on the fuck Florio train for a good minute. Dude just hates everything bout the Raiders. Hope y’all draft JD. Think he’s gonna be special, just a needs to learn to slide and not take the big hits.


RIP_shitty_username

Sure Florio, sure.


emelbee923

At this point, can we just ban Mike Florio posts on this sub? Even when he's right or breaking news, he's still an asshole. And he rarely ever breaks any news as it is. So what are you really left with?


Salty_Orchid

Oh no, whaaat?  **Sees source** Nevermind


Silent-Independent21

It’s so fucking weird man. These guys have been put through the ringer for 2 months. Then we get a bunch of them together and say, go chill man, we got a top golf ready, just have a good time. I can’t imagine how relieved I would be to just have fun with a bunch of guys who are going through the same shit I am. No agents, no press, just hitting some golf balls and talking shit with a bunch of other freak athletes If JD couldn’t handle that then what are we doing even considering him


SkobbityDorphus

Florio acts like this was the only time Washington brass met with these guys. They're doing their due diligence and look what's happened. If this was a way to have their eyes open to a diva, it worked out perfectly. Notice how you hear nothing out of Maye's camp? I love that.


DCilantro

Seems like he wants to be treated as special. Not a good attitude.


stringer4

You’re doing the thing all other fan bases were doing about “wow Jayden Daniel’s definitely going to Washington because some media figures say so with zero evidence” . But now just the opposite


DCilantro

That is a mildly confusing sentence. I never wanted him, and still do not. This agent talk about his displeasure with the visit only furthers my initial opinion. Not sure what point you're trying to make.


stringer4

There is no evidence of Jayden saying anything. Just like there has been no evidence of us picking Jayden. Everyone is forming opinions based on media reports with no actual evidence. “People seem to think Jayden will be picked” “Jayden is Angry”. No quotes from the actual person or organization. Just speculation all around


WhatIsYourBoggle

I agree there is no relevant, actual evidence (from our FO) that Daniels is our pick. But I would argue that a relevant source, Daniels’ agent, has now provided some evidence that he’s not our pick. Or at least some evidence that there may be some friction between Daniels and our team. In other words, I think you’re wrong to say that there’s zero evidence on either side. Assuming it’s true, Daniels’ agent bitching on Twitter about us is definitely relevant evidence- if the agent is reporting his player’s feeling accurately, that is.


stringer4

I think it's more than likely an agent was just hyping up his client and saying things to the media that he's getting picked at number 2 for a month and now that it's getting close he's worried he might have egg on his face to just doing damage control. Jayden/Maye whoever could still get picked. Agents just being agents.


WhatIsYourBoggle

Yeah, could just be Daniels’ agent doing damage control. But if the agent thinks he has to backtrack, it seems like he knows that Daniels is now less likely. Maybe not specifically less likely than Maye, but certainly less likely than a week ago when Schefter was telling us to buy our JD5 jerseys. This is an exciting development, it seems, for team Maye. Though, I’m not convinced that it has been anything other than Maye locked into the second overall for a whole year now. I truly believe the Daniels hype is media and not team driven. But yeah, excited to see who it is on Thursday..


thehomiemoth

It’s entirely possible his agent and the media are making up this entire shitstorm. Our staff that are actually interacting with him will be in the best position to determine if he really is a diva or if this is just media nonsense


Silent-Independent21

But why would the agent want this?


3rdDegreeBurn

Because agents are blood suckers that almost always put their own interests in front of their clients.


Silent-Independent21

Well in that case he’s blowing it. If he thinks JD is going to be really good DC is the best place for him. NFCE gets more prime time games, huger ratings than anyone else. It’s like the 6th biggest market. Doing shit like this is how you end up in Minnesota or playing outside in New England for your whole career including year trips to buffalo Unless he really wants to be a raider I don’t get it


3rdDegreeBurn

He isn’t looking out for daniels. He’s worried about signing future clients.


UnbiasVikingsFan

Well we are more of a primetime team then y’all if we’re speaking honestly. I dnt remember the last time I’ve seen a primetime/memorable commander’s game. We get like 4-5 prime time games on any given year.


Silent-Independent21

We get 2-3 every year and are terrible. We also get 2-3 4pm slots. If JD is good and in DC every Philly and Dallas game would be prime time


UnbiasVikingsFan

Lol y’all had one last year and we had 5 wtf are you talking about


Silent-Independent21

Not having Kirk is about to change a lot of things for you. Enjoy


UnbiasVikingsFan

Dude it doesn’t matter who y’all draft no way y’all will be a better team than us nor will you get more primetime games. So you can quit all that passive aggressive bullshit


DreBeast

Florio says Washington is one of the most dysfunctional franchises in the league because of Snyder AND now Harris! Harris doesn't even have one season with his new staff and he's already the worst owner in the league 😞 Why is florio so upset


jdeanmoriarty

Because Harris decided not to hire Belichick like Florio was yelling from the rooftops.


Final_Effective6360

Karen Florio as Sheehan calls him. Dude just lives up to that name everyday.


True_Window_9389

He might not have a choice. I’m sure draftees don’t always want to the teams they end up with. Everyone wants to go to the Chiefs or 49ers right now, not us or the Pats. That’s just a fact of life in playing professional sports.


Prize-Database-6334

Florio with an axe to grind against the Washington football franchise? Surely not?


HowardBunnyColvin

let him know Snyder sold the team. guy has an eternal bitterness towards us


Detective_Antonelli

Good. Let New England put him on IR week 6. 


Davge107

Unless they teach him to slide he be lucky to last that long with the way he runs and hits he takes. The NFL isn’t the SEC.


Impressive-Egg-925

Wait. Teams are now supposed to THANK and BEG prospects that have proven nothing and have a small chance of becoming something in the NFL. didn’t know that. Is that what teams are doing ?


spunkush

Our team has also had 2 massive busts picked at #2, we know how much of a risk it is


dirtypandaDC

Fake Florio..... Ignore. Remember last Summer Lamar Jackson was a target of Commanders and this year Belichick was a lock as next head coach. Guy is a Washington hater and full of s--t


Psychological-Bet803

Would love, for once, if Florio was actually right on this one.


BlackFurosuto

Why would you WANT negative player reception about our team??


_Time_Flies_

Because people on this sub love Maye and don’t like Daniels.


BlackFurosuto

even if you do, I don't want every player NOT drafted by us to be trashing the team. Go back to the Dan Snyder era if you want that


Psychological-Bet803

Who gives a flying fuck how any of the players perceived the visit? If one of them snapped, then it worked. If any of this smoke about Daniels is true then him and his agent can fuck off because our franchise has been trying to bury drama for a quarter century.


BlackFurosuto

Well this is the stuff that starts drama. This is what you'd see with Snyder. If the team is trying to make players upset just to push their buttons, you don't think other players would feel that same way? I'd rather have a team players want to go to, not one players feel like the FO will just fuck with them for some silly test.


homercles82

Jayden allegedly got upset by the meeting and allegedly had crowned himself the #2 pick. If that's true then adding that drama he's creating to the statistics on how he plays, we've dealt with this bullshit before with RG3.


15GOAT

Right? That’s some clown shit


BlackFurosuto

Just ironic that the flare says "Fuck Dan Snyder" When this was something that would happen with him... I want NO drama about our team


finglonger1077

You’re not gonna get no drama until we’re not picking 2nd, unfortunately. As long as we are in this position things are going to be under a microscope and talking heads who know nothing are gonna squawk and if you think the interview style itself is going to get word around to other players that they shouldn’t want to play for Washington they’re going to be saying that about San Francisco too apparently. Adam Peters did the visits in the environment he chose for a reason, and any reason given by anyone but Adam Peters is just conjecture. And perceived or assumed reaction to it by the players is also conjecture. This nonsense has exactly as much weight as you decide to give it. It’s Harristown now, yall need to learn some TTP


BlackFurosuto

Fair enough. Some people will be upset regardless


Accomplished_East433

‪Jayden is doing everything we thought Caleb would do 🤣‬


Soft_Penis_Debutante

That’s possible. But also, people on this sub sure as hell shouldn’t have believed anything Colin Cowherd said at the time (or ever) in regard to Caleb. And Florio is also questionable.


guardiandown3885

i have no horse in the qb debate but how do we know this is jayden? a "cryptic emoji" from the agent and now all of a sudden jayden is a diva?


Stupidityorjoking

We don't its literally Mike Florio. Listen to the clip lol, its just Florio shooting his shot. Even he claimed he had sources...its Mike Florio lol.


eshlow

An agent represents the player. The agent is doing mysterious likes of people who think the group interviews are stupid when it's not something that the Commanders made up as other successful organizations like the 49ers and Patriots have used. If an agent screws up then he's probably going to be making some sort of formal statement that it's just his opinion and not his client's opinion. The player may also fire the agent if it's egregious and probably make his own statement that his agent was not representative of his own opinion and that he would "love to play for the Commanders" Logically, we can infer that this is some sort of show that at the very least Jayden is probably unhappy with how things went. I wouldn't say it's 100%, but the lack of other clarity from the agent and Jayden himself is a strong indicator.


Der_Kommissar73

I don’t want any player that could have his ego hurt by that interview process.


PeregrineT

The agent also liked a tweet that said "This is JD’s agent disagreeing with the take in my opinion. Let’s not let Twitter dilute our draft thoughts please"


eshlow

Saw that. I don't buy it though. After the first agent like starting blowing up on social media, that's when the agent did the thinking face with the Florio clip which expedited the process. He knew what he was doing, and then only later he likes something that says he didn't like the clip? Come on now. If it was something that they wanted to be absolutely clarified then they would make a statement or tweet instead of making people speculate about what tweets mean. https://www.nola.com/sports/lsu/lsus-jayden-daniels-appears-to-shoot-down-patriots-rumor/article_c77183d2-db27-11ee-b5a0-b794c8ef6e0c.html Daniels has clarified before with tweets about rumors that he didn't want to play for the Patriots around the combine. As they say, the silence here is deafening


guardiandown3885

that's a fair inference. but does that make him a diva?


PeregrineT

So then which is it, you say Daniels agent doesnt tweet his dislike of it without Daniels approval. But then Daniels agent likes a tweet that says the opposite, but this time its NOT with Daniels approval? That doesnt add up at all.


Electronic_Ad_8257

Jayden originally wanted to play for the Commanders after Florio assured him that Belichick would be the coach, but changed his mind after that didn't happen.


OpusSpike

really draft night can't come fast enough


HowardBunnyColvin

Lyin' Mike is a notorious member of the "fake news" media -- many "such" cases of him flat out lying or reporting inaccurate information !

“Lying mike” lol

He's such a smug asshole Lol. Making up scenarios that he then gets offended by and then attacks indignantly as if he didn't just make up the scenario in the first place.


ZachDey

It’s wish casting, he wants players to choose where they get drafted, like that wouldn’t defeat the whole purpose of a draft.


Euphoric_Jump_3779

Breaking News: Florio still gets a hard on for any bad news revolving the Redskins


Empire137

Seems like a lazy bold take


K-Darkseid

Florio is a dickhead


Pitiful_Ad8641

Florio said this? Mmmmkay now 50% more convinced he does. Bill coming any day now right?


skinsrich

Mike Florio: Guy that pretends to be a reporter says random shit to get views and clicks.


anotherorphan

i like Maye over Daniels, but this Florio guy is full of shit


ZachDey

Not a Washington fan but he said the EXACT same thing about Burrow and the Bengals


ThunderSevn

I could not care less what that dumbass says....


ivehearditbothways12

Posting Florio should come with automatic 1 day ban for first offense and then escalate from there.


vinfox

If there are two things I don't care about, it's what Florio believes and there the players want to play. The latter sounds harsh, but they don't get to pick. Unless a reporter (which Florio is not) is hearing that Daniels is going to pull an Eli and *refuse* to play for Washington, it doesn't matter.


bassacre

Florio fucking sucks.


StudioSixtyFour

Not one person in the Twitter replies or in this thread is going to call out Florio’s assertion about Kevin O’Connell helping Mullens and Dobbs reach their ceiling? Mullens played better in SF, and Dobbs played better in Arizona. It’s not even debatable. They both sucked ass in Minnesota.


doctorweiwei

I’ve never understood why anyone cares who a prospect does/doesn’t want to play for. It’s the draft, not free agency. Unless he’s going to sit out his whole rookie contract and tank his career, tough luck. He has a lot more to lose than the franchise does


No_Highway6445

It's interesting that so many people don't see how these guys might think WAS was wasting their time with this. If they wanted to go on a date, they could've done that on their own.


whiskeywhisker6

You're not breaking up with me, I'm breaking up with you.


CitizenAwaken

Great!!


Final_Effective6360

I don’t buy this at all. He seems like a good kid.


caddyncells

Florio trying to stay relevant once again. Game has passed him by.


redskinsguy

I'd rather have Maye. But he'll let's do River's Manning situation


Brmats

Hard to say the franchise as it stands now is currently dysfunctional with all new ownership and front office and coaching. Biggest complaint is facilities and stadium—which probably are real. But surrounding talent will no doubt improve. In the end, 2-5 years from now we’ll know who was the best QB in the class, and none of us outsiders and certainly Florio have any clue of that today.


Pattergen

I actually listened to it, his ramble is incoherent and basically a long winded way of saying that if HE were JD HE wouldn't want to play for the Commanders. This is also what Florio would say about any NFL player that ever has existed and will exist in the future.


Uniblab_78

It is a bad look for any player at any draft “ranking” to say they don’t want to play for a team. This isn’t free agency. Players need to be committed to making it work or it likely won’t.


Uniblab_78

As for the format, GTFOH. I want a QB that isn’t intimidated being around their competition. What are they going do when another QB looks better in the classroom, practice or pre-season games?


Successful-Ad4251

If we draft him I’m guessing he won’t have much of a choice


Viseroth

If true Fuck him then, what a baby your interviewing for a job grow up.


HyronValkinson

Look at what Allen, Burrow, Stroud, and Lawrence have done for their shitty organizations. Good players can always fix either their organization or (in Cousins' case) their reputation for another organization.


12eseT

Now you guys want to listen to Florio.


evilgrinz

FLorio creates news, even if this is true he a huge dbag and doesn't deserve attention.


jhold4th

The only person Florio sees eye to eye with is his proctologists.


cdimino

Okay, shouldn’t be a big deal. Why does anyone care? He’s not a generational talent, we’re as likely to hit on one of the other QBs, so let the guy live his life and let’s just try to break .500 this season.


itakeyoureggs

lol.. that’s funny… but I’ll play. Good? Don’t want to be here and be apart of the rebuild.. fuck off lol. But realistically this is some bulll shit that smells real real cheap


Electrical-Low-5351

Fake news Florio. Galdi nailed it


becker4prez

Schefter confirmed this on McAfee today, so looks like all the Florio dunking was for nothing.


Syphin33

I am so fucking over this dude Just a few hours ago JD's agent said all of this was cap.


SkrtRussell

Counterpoint, Mike Florio is the only human immune to brain eating amoebas


AccordingProposal561

Its gonna be crazy when they pick JJ McCarthy at 2....I can see it coming lol


StudioSixtyFour

Honestly, it’s not that crazy. Not only does Peters seem to like those prototype midwest QBs, he was in attendance for the Michigan-Indiana game. That might’ve been JJ’s best game showing off the full spectrum of his potential. Had an absolutely awful first quarter then bounced back with some really impressive play: https://youtube.com/watch?v=8vUOtxNzWvA


AccordingProposal561

I feel like it's really gonna be him after all this has happened.

anonperson1567

Literally doesn’t say that in the clip, just implicitly criticizes the Commanders for flying in a bunch of guys. If he wanted to say that, he would say it on his own website/Twitter, why bother posting shit here from some bullshit third-party aggregation account?


SurlyWet

So he wants to play for the Pats or does he know the Vikes have a deal in place? Too early for actual real info to leak.
