NFL 2010 Off-Season Thread

I think we will regardless.
We are looking at Anthony Hargrove who is a DT. But Schwartz said that he would probably play 1st and 2nd down at DE.

A defensive line of:
Kyle Vanden Bosch - Ndamukong Suh - Corey Williams - Anthony Hargrove
Would instantly make our defense creditable. That's a hell of a line if they all stay healthy.

We are also looking at Pacman Jones still, so I hope we still to sign him eventually.
We also need to get Chester Pitts for the O-Line.

We still got much work to do lol.

 

[Mooche]

Yeah, you clearly do have work to do. But picking Suh, getting a talent like that, is exactly what you guys need to do. I understand the whole thing about protecting your asset in Stafford - but there is nobody worth it. Okung is not worth a 2nd overall pick. However, Suh is a freakish rare talent that will instantly be a force in the league.

 

[RipCity32]

Exactly my train of though.
Hopefully Mayhew is thinking a similar thing lol.

Appears reports have said that Carnell Williams is going to be the starter. I hope that he can bounce back from those injuries, I really do. Loved his game since his days at Auburn.

 

[Blake]

Oh my God.

The 20-yard run he had against Dallas was the first time since he was originally injured he ran the ball for 20-yards without breaking his <Censored>ing knee.

<Censored> Williams, I hate that <Censored>.

 

[Mooche]

Who do you like on the Bucs? Legit question.

 

[Blake]

Ronde, Ruud, Tanard, Talib, Clifton, JJ, Winslow, Sammy, Graham, and Qunicy.

The rest are <Censored>ing pathetic.

People forget Graham was on pace for a 2,000 yard season back in 07-08.

The NFL has announced that the owners have approved the modified overtime proposal for the postseason in 2010.
The vote passed at a 28-4 margin for the postseason only, but the issue will be revisited in May with the possibility of including regular season games. Per the new rule, the team that wins the coin toss must score a touchdown to win the game, ensuring that both teams will get the ball in the majority of overtime contests. If the game is tied after both teams' possessions, it then moves to a sudden death format. Mar. 23 - 3:17 pm et

28-4 vote, woah.

ESPN's Chris Mortensen reports that the Browns' interest in Colt McCoy is "real," and believes Mike Holmgren's club could use a second-round pick on the Texas alum.
Mort goes so far as to suggest Holmgren might package picks to select McCoy at the back end of round one. McCoy will be in Cleveland April 12-13 for a pre-draft visit. McCoy's stature and arm strength aren't impressive, but Holmgren may like his accuracy, winning background, and athleticism. Mar. 23 - 10:12 am et

This is some thought for you Blake about the Tebow thing... Not saying Mortensen is ANYTHING, at all, lol. Hate the guy. Yet, his opinion is just as valued in my eyes as your source.

 

[elcheato]

Browns interested in Vincent Jackson, and gulp, Terrell Owens.

Any word on landing spots for Brandon Marshall? There was a lot of talk about teams he was linked to awhile, seems like the talk has died down, I can't see him going to back to Denver.

 

[Mooche]

Citing "multiple league and media sources," Profootballtalk.com reports that Oklahoma QB Sam Bradford may refuse to sign a pre-draft contract with the Rams.
JaMarcus Russell is the only No. 1 pick to not sign before the draft in the last four years. By refusing to sign, Bradford would gain leverage in contract talks. The move could also spur St. Louis to shop the pick, fearing Bradford might hold out like Russell, or even draft another player. Signing early and reporting on time would give Bradford his best chance to start on day one. Being drafted No. 1 would also give him his best shot at the biggest contract. Mar. 29 - 8:13 pm et

Quite interesting.

Toby Gerhart & Brandon LaFell in Miami Uni's Count on It

I hope lol

Toby Gerhart & Brandon LaFell in Miami Uni's Count on It

I hope lol

Depends on if you go after Dez Bryant in the 1st round - if you in fact do not, I think a player like LaFell is definitely the way to go in the 2nd.

 

[Blake]

I can't believe Dez Bryant.

I mean why? Everyone had you going in the top-10 without question and you slack away over five million dollars...

If it were me I'd of been in the gym daily -- no matter what -- I'd of done squats and ran until I was faster than Chris Johnson.

His worth ethic must be God awful.

He's lazy. I don't truly understand either. I mean, when he was quitting on drills, that IS very alarming for an NFL team. Scouts have always questioned his toughness, and to be quite frank, I never understood the hype about him being as good as Calvin Johnson. CJ was always by far and away a better prospect then Dez.

 

[Blake]

Calvin is just a beast -- as is Dez -- but Johnson doesn't seem as lazy and seems like a much easier man to work with.

Exactly what I mean. Calvin just shuts up and plays football, that's why I love him so much.

 

[Blake]

Had Dallas gone 0-16 that year, you'd of heard every player on that roster <Censored>ing up a storm -- When Detroit did it I never heard a word.

The Browns are close to acquiring CB Sheldon Brown and LB Chris Gocong from the Eagles, according to CBSSports.com's Clark Judge.
The deal hinges on Brown receiving a new contract from Cleveland. In return, the Eagles would receive either a draft pick and a player or two draft picks and a backup. Brown and Gocong would move immediately into the Browns' starting lineup, and the Eagles would address cornerback early in the draft. Apr. 2 - 8:25 am et

Going to be interesting to see if this deal can go through. Might have to change my mock up a bit if this goes through. Ha.
