.Hugo.Isnt gresham meeting there like now?


Who else do they even have left? Lol


Also the browns qb situation just gets better and better...


I thought Gresham met with them yesterday but it might be today. We need an every down tight end until Rivera improves his blocking.


Pretty much all that's left is Brees, Colston, and Ingram on the offensive side of the ball.


Dwayne Bowe has been officially released. Wouldn't mind him for the right price

The Saints guaranteed 10 of the 15 million they're giving Browner. Better hope he plays well

I can. In losing Revis the Patriots had to figure out if they were going to continue with the press-coverage system that those two brought to their defense. Now, they have a blank slate to work with. Why would they resign Browner if they were not going to utilize his strengths?

I never really thought of it like that. Solid point.

Browner is not the player the Patriots want him to be without Revis opposite him. The reason their secondary worked so well was that they were perfect complements to each other. Look for a lot more soft zone this year. Bend but don't break coverage. A defense that can't get off the field. Fuck this.

Despite his issues with injuries and his complete loss of explosiveness at the line he's still a top 5 3rd down running back in the league. I think that's a good signing for the Cowboys

Part of me likes this a lot. I think his style of running will go well with the o line we have. But injury issues make me nervous.

I feel like Spiller gets hurt more than McFadden. Like McFadden's injuries are like he sprained his ankle and he misses three weeks and I feel like Spiller breaks his ankle and misses 10

I guess that's true.


I'm really curious to see if Demarco was the godsend we all thought, or if he's an okay running back behind an amazing line like some people say.

I think that's a solid addition. What did they lose?

I always find it odd that Miami has been so bad for this long. If I was an NFL player, I'd love to live there. You think that alone would get more talent there.

Owner/GM problems have been our downfall. We have missed out on so much because they are idiots. Ross likes to play fantasy football and won't give up control of the team to a real coach, thats why we can't land a decent coach. Good players are great to have, but if you can't utilize them as a coach, they're useless. We should have been to the playoffs the last two years if anyone taught Tannehill how to throw the deep-ball with Wallace. Seriously, that hookup alone would have won us 2-3 games each season.

New Orleans will receive linebacker Dannell Ellerbe and Miami's third-round pick in the 2015 draft.

Not happy we had to give up 2 players ultimately, but I'm happy were making moves where we need them.

So I'm hearing that whoever holds the number 2 pick will take Mariota and that because the Jags signed Odrick they are looking at one of the top 3 pass rushers (Gregory, Fowler, Beasley) which means Leonard Williams is gonna fall to the Raiders




And one of the top receivers is gonna be there at 36. I'm hearing Jaelen Strong might fall and someone like Devin Funchess for sure will be there so the Raiders are gonna have options. Is it the draft yet? It needs to be the draft

His agent is a fucking moron and is gonna screw him over. Hes the one out there saying mn isnt a good fit, ap hasn't said anything. But the viqueens will never cut him and i heard theyre arent gonna trade unless its 2 1st rounders lol. So he either plays for mn or sits out and doesnt get paid... he has no guaranteed money left i believe

I read some article saying he could have gotten Tebow specifically for extra points. If he converts 3/4 its 6 pts and if they go for extra points thats just 4. So yea, he may be doing alot of 2 pt conversions.

Yup basically it, only a little over a week until the draft, if anything happens that is when it will be.

The vikings want AP on the team, and they are more than willing to just let him rot under contract if they don't get a trade offer they don't like.

They aren't going to take anything less than a 1st round pick and a viable defensive player is the rumor going around.

He and especially his agent are morons.

Ya his agent is fucking shit up for him so much. Idk what kind of team would even want to deal with that assclown. I think his agent has just basically brainwashed ap into wanting to leave. I say fuck em, if he doesnt wanna play let him sit on the bench. Unless they get an offer they cant refuse

I always look for primetime games when the vikes schedule comes out, last year we didn't have one which is nice. This year we have one and its the second Monday night game on the first Monday night, in San Francisco starting at 9:30pm central....The vikes suck on prime time at least its late enough nobody will be watching.
