The latest on Favre and what he’s up to

It is either a sign that fans are sick and tired of having to hear about the Favre Watch, or fans are extremely confident that he’ll be back. Either way, I was surprised that the latest update on Favre managed to be overshadowed by the NFL Draft.  One year ago, an update about Brett Favre [...]

Were the Eagles right in taking Graham in round one?

When we saw the Eagles trade up to the 13th selection last night, I don’t think anyone was too surprised at the move. It seemed almost inevitable that with Earl Thomas on the board, he would be on his way to Philadelphia. However, the Eagles chose to pass on Thomas and selected Brandon Graham, a [...]

Seattle Selects Walter Thurmond III in Fourth Round, 111th Overall

A busy day already for Seattle on day three of the 2010 N.F.L. Draft. After trading for running back LenDale White and defensive tackle Kevin Vickerson while swapping fourth- and sixth-round selections, the Seahawks hopped back on the clock seven selections later (with what was Tennessee’s selection) and picked cornerback Walter Thurmond III. The following [...]

Bills Seclect Central Florida NT Torrell Troup with 41st Overall Pick in Second Round

A bit of surprise here for Troup, especially with fellow DTs, Alabama’s Terrence Cody and North Carolina’s Cam Thomas, still on the draft board.  Both have been rated higher than Troup by scouts and Troup could be considered a bit of a reach here. One other note: still on the board are Notre Dame QB Jimmy Clausen [...]

Miami takes guard John Jerry in round three

The Dolphins have been the team shocking their fans the most this weekend, again proving the mock drafters wrong, and taking guard John Jerry in the 3rd round. Jerry is an absolute mauler, standing at 6?5, and weighing in at 328 lbs. Jerry specializes against the run. Jerry has only played on the right side [...]

Arizona Steals the Show with Tennessee Williams

I’ m not sure everyone will get the playwright reference in the title, but in any event there’s no time to bask in the glory of the absolute robbery the Cardinals pulled last night.  Rounds two and three steamroll our way tonight starting at 6:00 p.m. ET.  Apparently I need to put up a story because my Dad asked [...]

Browns grab QB Colt McCoy in round three

Finally the Browns drafted Colt McCoy in the third round of the 2010 draft. The Cleveland Browns and McCoy could be a match made in heaven. The Browns are getting a guy with a lot of playing experience. McCoy is mobile,productive, and experienced at the Quarterback position. The Cleveland Browns needed a Quarterback and McCoy [...]
