Not again? Jeesh! Come on Vince! 1. Why did Browns rookie wide receiver Corey Coleman report to mini camp out of shape? He was one of the best athletes in the draft and he played in a fast paced, no huddle offense at Baylor. Conditioning shouldn’t be an issue for him. 2. Reports surfaced yesterday that former Broncos and Dolphins running back Knowshon Moreno was going to retire. He should…
Courtesy of EA Sports I don’t believe in curses but the EA Cover jinx scares me. I get why they put Gronk on the cover. He’s a superstar and one of the ten best players in the league but we know the extensive injury history with guys that have appeared on this cover. It’s not good. Let’s hope Gronk doesn’t join that illustrious list. He’s had enough injuries.
The Chargers better hope that Melvin Gordon can bounce back or they are screwed! 1. Julien Edelman having another foot surgery is a concern. I don’t care how the Patriots spin it. 2. Chargers running back Melvin Gordon having mircofracture surgery is bad news for the Chargers as far as I’m concerned. He already has too many carries on his body from his time at Wisconsin. The Chargers better hope…
Image courtesy of MLive.com When the NCAA announced in March that they would be banning satellite football camps in response to Jim Harbaugh taking his team to Florida for spring ball, there were mixed reactions. Most college football coaches applauded the move, while others viewed it as a punishment despite the fact that they were playing by the rules. All hell has broken loose since the ruling was levied. Now…
I’ve had enough with Sam Bradford and his whining. Either shut up and quarterback the Philadelphia Eagles or just retire! Don’t waste our time threatening to hold out or retire! If that’s what you want to do, then do it! Here’s my question. What has Bradford done in his career to instill confidence in the Eagles that he can be their quarterback of the future? He’s injury prone and wildly…
Amid rumors and speculation that Danny Amendola might get cut at some point this off-season, the veteran receivers re-worked his contract for the second time in two years. Amendola was suppose to count $6 million against the cap in 2016. Instead, he will make $7.35 million over the next two seasons and could make an additional $750,000 in incentives and catch bonuses. Restructuring his deal with the Patriots will give…
Hugh Freeze. Good, honest Southerner or Devil dealing bullshitter? I’m scripting the top ten football stories of the day. Here we go! 1. Ole Miss coach Hugh Freeze is either telling the truth about recruits getting paid or he’s the world’s greatest liar. He was shocked by Laremy Tunsil’s announcement last week at his post draft press conference. You decide. I don’t buy it. I think he knew and he’s…
Patriots fans are still buzzing about the fact that the Patriots took quarterback Jacoby Brissett with the 91st pick in the third round of last weekend’s draft. Many pundits felt the Patriots were going to take a quarterback at some point in this draft but no one thought Bill Belichick would take a quarterback on day two and no one thought that it would be Brissett. When watching Brissett on…
Eric Fisher hasn’t lived up to the Chiefs expectations thus far. Lost in the hoopla of this past weekend’s NFL draft was Monday’s option deadline. Teams had until Monday to pick up a player’s fifth year option. Here are my thoughts on each first round pick of the 2013 draft and why their options were or weren’t picked up. No. 1 Pick: Eric Fisher, OT Chiefs: Fisher has struggled at…
1. I like the Cyrus Jones pick. He can play in the slot and outside. With Logan Ryan and Malcolm Butler free agents next off-season, Jones could find himself a starter in 2017. 2. Joe Thuney is a Dante Scarnecchia pick. He’s tough, athletic, smart, technically sound and ideally suited to play in a zone blocking scheme. Thuney could beat out Tre Jackson or Shaq Mason in camp for a…
