Redskins take on Joey Galloway, age not an issue
Headed into his 16th season in the NFL, wide receiver Joey Galloway isn’t ready to hang up his cleats just yet, even though he’s old enough (theoretically speaking) to be the father of his youngest teammates. On Wednesday, the Redskins signed Galloway to a one year contract, giving them a much needed veteran presence, with [...]
Continue reading...Release of JaMarcus Russell a solid step for Oakland
28 April 2010
Over the past three years, quarterback JaMarcus Russell has experienced it all with the Raiders. The highs (very few) and the lows (quite a lot). But one thing has remained constant for Russell in that period of time, and it alone has been the single biggest factor in his disastrous career thus far: his inability [...]
Continue reading...Dolphins not interested in adding Adalius Thomas?
27 April 2010
Now that the Patriots have finally exorcised linebacker Adalius Thomas from their inner circle, you would think that he’d be a hot commodity with teams that run a 3-4 style defense, but for now it seems as though the interest in Thomas is lacking in both quantity and quality. That said, there are still a [...]

26 April 2010
Former Jets offensive guard Alan Faneca has made no attempt to hid his frustration with his former employer over the past few days, complaining vehemently about New York’s decision to dump him onto the free agent market shortly after the draft finished up on Saturday evening. Both sides have legitimate gripes with the situation, as [...]

26 April 2010
The first casualty of the NFL Draft is here, and his name is John Henderson. According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the Jaguars will officially release the veteran defensive tackle later on today, making room for their two draft acquisitions at the position, Tyson Alualu and D’Anthony Smith. Henderson is a two time Pro Bowler and [...]

25 April 2010
As a lifelong fan of the NFL, I’ve watched more than my fair share of drafts over the years, and have formulated my own view on how each team operates in their selection process. Obviously, I’m not privy to what goes on in the war rooms around the league, but I feel pretty confident in [...]
Continue reading...Westbrook visiting with Rams
25 April 2010
Earlier in the month, longtime Philadelphia running back Brian Westbrook was drawing interest from the Packers, but clearly discussions with Green Bay did not go as far as expected, seeing that he remains unemployed. That said, it appears another team has stepped up to the plate and expressed a desire to add him. Westbrook is now visiting with [...]

25 April 2010
Over the past few weeks, shocking details surrounding Pittsburgh quarterback Ben Roethlisberger’s life off the field have come to light, staining his personal reputation and that of his franchise as well. This morning, an even more startling revelation was brought out into the open by ESPN’s Outside the Lines, discussing the reasons behind Roethlisberger’s decision [...]

25 April 2010
Unlike any other draft before, this year brought us a completely new format, allowing the league to celebrate (rightly so) the achievements of the best collegiate players in primetime. While there are definitely a few kinks that need to be worked out over the next year, things couldn’t be better for the NFL, with outstanding [...]
Continue reading...Undrafted free agent signings
24 April 2010
Every year there are more than a few prospects left waiting and wondering why they weren’t taken in the draft.They sit and quietly contemplate whether their careers are finally over and then like that, their phone rings, usually with a front office executive of one team or another on the line. And then the fun [...]
Continue reading...Jets stay busy, release Faneca, trade Washington
24 April 2010
Prior to this off-season, the Jets weren’t exactly known for their propensity to wheel and deal during the draft. But after blockbuster free agent period netted them Antonio Cromartie, LaDainian Tomlinson, and Jason Taylor, New York mad yet another splash in the pool this morning with their release of Pro Bowl guard Alan Faneca and [...]
Continue reading...Round Two Draft Grades
24 April 2010
Round two was predictably full of surprises, with several teams throwing caution to the wind and selecting players of questionable value and/or talent. But alongside of those picks, which were really few and far between, there were plenty of outstanding choices made by NFL front offices last night, and their teams should be much better [...]
Continue reading...Shanahan: Haynesworth trade “not going to happen.”
23 April 2010
Over the past week, there’s been a multitude of rumors floating around claiming the Redskins would be all too eager to send defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth packing for a new home, and while team officials in Washington have remained adamant that there’s no way that would happen, it simply made too much sense not to [...]
Continue reading...Round One winners and losers
23 April 2010
Last night’s proceedings were an incredible success for the NFL as a whole, given the primetime status of the TV coverage and the speed at which round one was completed. Instead of the five hour affairs we’ve seen in years past, this version was slammed out in just 3 hours, 28 minutes, finishing up in [...]
Continue reading...Mock Draft Round Two – Friday morning edition
23 April 2010
With round one in the books, things are bound to get crazy this evening in both round two and three, making tonight’s coverage of the draft must-see TV. Look for a bevy of trades to take place, especially early on in round two, with plenty of top level players slipping down from round one. We’ve [...]
Continue reading...Cowboys shopping Sam Hurd, Chiefs interested?
23 April 2010
With standout Oklahoma State wide receiver Dez Bryant in the fold, Dallas now has the luxury of having a solid trio of receivers for quarterback Tony Romo to work with. Unfortunately for the other players at the position, that means the Cowboys will more than likely be shopping them around throughout the remainder of this [...]
Continue reading...First round grades are in
23 April 2010
Thanks for dropping back in to check out our draft grades from round one. Things pretty much went to form last night, with just enough trades to keep us on our toes, and a few surprises thrown in for good measure (Tim Tebow to Denver?) We’ve broken down each pick and have our first thoughts [...]
Continue reading...Chiefs nab Eric Berry
22 April 2010
Can’t believe I’m finally writing this… as a lifelong Chiefs fan, I’ve wanted to see Eric Berry playing on Sundays at Arrowhead Stadium for a long time now. Okay enough with the personal bias… in Berry, the Chiefs are getting a premier safety capable of changing the game with his physical presence in both the [...]
Continue reading...Redskins take Trent Williams
22 April 2010
First real surprise of the evening, although it was speculated for some time now that this would happen. Trent Williams is an outstanding player and fits the style of play that head coach Mike Shanahan likes to employ. Highlights coming right up… Kansas City is officially on the clock…
Continue reading...Buccaneers grab Gerald McCoy
22 April 2010
No surprise here. Gerald McCoy is the perfect fit for Tampa Bay’s defensive line, in that he’s a quick, penetrating defensive tackle that can really get after the quarterback. The Bucs won’t be all that good next year, but if McCoy lives up to his potential, their defense will be much improved for sure. Highlights [...]
