The Cleveland Browns paid Robert Royal $3.6 million last year.
I honestly don't dislike the guy, but seriously, Robert Royal should be arrested for the money he has been stealing from the NFL the last few years.
Making a rough guess, I believe this guy has taken home 10+ million dollars over the last 4 years for being under average.
Then again, Rob Johnson saw all of his $25 million dollars, sooo....

Aaron and Donte, sittin' in a tree, t-w-e-e-t-i-n-g...
Man, that actually works when you say it out loud.
...which I will never say again as long as I live.
...especially in the office.

I saw Worilds mentioned as a value pick on Path to the Draft on NFL Network yesterday and i was kind of interested. I know how we feel about undersized guys, but he would be going to LB anyways.
To you think this would be a luxury pick in the 4th round (albeit he is projected for the 3rd) due to the fact that we already have a bunch of these DE-turned-OLBs on the team anyways?
-
Sorry, guys, just bumping this back up, because I think its kind of a good, quick reference to the guys in the draft.
-
You guys don't mind if I jump on this bandwagon, do you?
I think there is value to be had and I think this team should spread it around. I would be very pleased with three picks in the top 60.

I'm hoping their $$$ grab backfires on them. For years, I turned on the box all draft day - I was part of their ratings. Last year's change was goofy - reducing the round times. Teams are making million-dollar decisions, trying to work trades - and they cut the 1st round time limit by a third. Insanity.
I'll tune in around the time BUF selects, and again when the Candy Stripers pick. Other than that - forget it. I'll check the web sites for other results.
That they stuck it to fans who attend is beyond question...
Stucky, ya know what makes the $$$ grab more annoying in this instance?
The fact that nobody, NOBODY, in the NFL hiearchy that made this decision can look around the room when they were making it, and say with a straight face, "Man, the fans are going to love this. This is a win-win, and they've earned it. I'm glad we are saving them from their Saturday/Sunday get togethers and draft parties with friends. Hats off,
everybody!"
They knew we were going to hate this. I mean they really, really knew.

Looks like the Foreskins are interested in ex-cowboy, Flozell Adams. If the skins pick up Adams, would they still draft a LT in the first round? IMO, the Raiders will draft Clausen or some off the wall pick with their first pick, so I could see us having a shot at one of the top 3 LT's in the draft. It looks like Jamarcus Russell fell out of favor in Oakland last year and might be replaced by Clausen this year.
Yeah, Mike, honestly I think they would still draft a LT. Flozell is not a long term answer, just a stopgap.
Edit: I stand by my point, regardless of what the article says.

I disagree with this. SD has Sproles. They need a banger.
No, I believe they let him go and test the market in free agency.
Edit: yes, they did.

What do the following people have in common:
SAM BRADFORD
TIM TEBOW
TROY SMITH
MATT LEINERT
JASON WHITE
CARSON PALMER
ERIC CROUCH
CHRIS WEINKE
DANNY WUERFFEL
CHARLIE WARD
GINO TORRETTA
TY DETMER
ANDRE WARE
VINNY TESTEVERDE
DOUG FLUTIE
They are all of the QB's that have won the Heisman since 1980 - 3 of which have had decent careers (Flutie, Testeverde and Palmer). The rest have done nothing or have yet to do anything. Tebow is an athlete yes, but he is a project player. His delivery is slow. If you were to draft a person such as Tebow, you need to build an offense around him - hiding his weaknesses and playing on his strengths. He is not someone who fits in a cookie cutter NFL offense. My thought is unless the Bills take him in round 2, he slips to late in the 3rd, early 4th.
Well...I'm really not going to jump all over Charlie Ward for "not doing anything in the NFL".
That's like saying John Elway really didn't do anything in the Yankees organization. It's true but its not the point.
-
Sounds like he could be a guy who gets the big payday and stops working hard. And considering he'd probably be looking for about $10M/year, I'd pass.
Very few words there, Doc, but so much to the point...that is really, really what scares me about this kid. Look, I don't want us to mess up on a draft pick but I would rather mess up on a draft pick then pay big bucks (and a draft pick) to a players who after he gets his 8 figure bonus checks decides he's really not that into football anymore.
...or worse yet a guy who we give millions to, plays poorly, and then ends up watching film of Baltimore games in the locker room after Bills' losses, thinking how much he misses the Ravens.
Yeah, I don't know about you guys but that still leaves a bad taste in my mouth.
-
How is it that nobody has yet posted the story about the Bills having their sites set on that perennial small school wonder Olof Pilar? Seems like every year sombody has inside info that the Bills love this kid nobody knows much about, and every year all 32 teams pass on him in the draft.....kid's somehow in his 28th season at some small D2 scool nobody's ever heard of....
I'm disappointed I don't see his name here this morning - I think this place is slipping....
That was a classic. I think a swallowed that kool-aid for a brief time, as well.

Tim Tebow's mother conceived at a fertility clinic where Chuck Norris is a donor......just sayin.

Correct me if i am wrong, but isn't 246 lbs about the same weight that Maybin played at last season? I was hoping he would report in already having gained weight.
No wonder he feels he should be running at the same speed.
Yeah, tecmo, it does sound familiar. As with others in this thread my fingers are crossed.

Dan Williams at 9 and Jared Gaither with our 2nd...sounds like the makings of a great draft day experience
How about combining the above with Virgil1528's thread concerning the rotoworld report... meaning we trade down with the teams interested in the Raiders spot pick up another number two, and lets get Williams at 9, Gaither for one of our 2d round picks and still get a 2d rounder.
...I know, I'm greedy!

I read somewhere that a request to change uni's takes about 18 mo's to get approved by the league and Reebok. Nothing this year unfortunately. These current ones we wear don't even match! C'mon, a thick red stripe that "transitions" into a more traditional multi-colored striped pattern....ughhh!!!
Seriously, Seriously, Seriously, Seriously, SERIOUSLY, SERIOUSLY!!!!
No one sitting next to the old man when those God awful road unis were shown had the guts to say out loud, "Ralph, those hideous."?
-
Man, that is one franchise that needs to start taking its "settle back" pills, and soon.
-
I know it is wrong, but why do I love the idea of picking Spiller so much?

"What it means to be a Bill...said Fred Smerlas ...."I have nothing but good memories of playing for the Bills. It's something I cherish. When I was playing for the Pats, I'd wear a Bills T-shirt under my uniform."
Jim Haslett 1984...on the team's unpopularity: "I have five dogs. They are the only people in Buffalo who like me."
excerpt from Jim Haslett stepped on Terry Bradshaw's head
The Haslett and Smerlas show was raw and real and such good stuff for the times.
Man, I do remember it fondly...and it did kind of stink when you would hear Smerlas rip the team, city and fans during his years on the radio.
PTR is right, Smerlas' comments did make the rounds here at TSW.

Sorry I am screwing it up a little by not adding anything, but I just wanted to post in here and say, "damn, this a good thread with some good information!"
Seriously, all of you, thank you for giving good info on guys that weren't on my radar before.
-
I am not as down on Leinart as most of the people are around here. I can't help it, i just saw some amazing things from him during that preseason game against GB.
That being said, if you're Arizona, why in the world are you not all over the prospect of bringing McNabb out West, especially if you are not going to have to mortgage your future to do it?
-
Ya know, I hate to say this b/c everyone refers to him as a "gamer", BUT doesn't McNabb seem to get hurt a lot?
Throw that in with being 33 years old and I think it is a little optimistic for people to view this guy as having 3-5 years (let alone even productive years, at that) left.
Spice it up with some bad Bills OL play and I just don't think it is a good mix.

This player intrigues me, in the late 3rd/early 4th round...

Interesting, Stucky. I kind of like your thinking with that one.
-
uhh, no. i was in the same camp as you, so i decided to fire it up on the emulator a little while back. i came to the verdict that tecmo super bowl kicked ass when i was 12, which was almost 20 years ago.
Well then, I would think you guys already know this, but if not, I'm about to make you day:

An honest man. Thank you bowery4.
Man, the kid was good if you had the chance to see him live. I mean really something.
