PFT is the enquirer of the NFL. Sometimes they get a story dead on and before everyone else, but more often than not, it is not accurate. Reed and a third for simon however does sound like a deal both sides might accept. I could handle that trade. I wish we could see edwards and anderson progress, but you cant pass up a guy like simon. Look at it this way. If a month ago someone said trade travis for corey simon...everyone would be on board. In all likelyhood Reed will be cut anyway, and we got a third for travis. So in essesnce we trade travis for corey simon. Not a bad deal at all. DO IT TD!

Its on the NFL network (ch 212 on directv). Also on select cable networks. I am not sure what to expect...should be interesting anyway.

Curtis martin MIGHT be there...

Thanks for giving away the ending....geesh...

Well, I had vick on my team last year. It was painful. One week the guy puts up 40 points, the following week he gets -4. He was VERY inconsistent. It was hard not to start him though (i think leftwich was my backup...not sure). Losman could be similar.

I think Losman would be a good last round fantasy QB. The guy can scramble, the guy can get yards ala micheal vick, and he has weapons downfield. I seriously think he will be a top 10 fantasy QB. HOWEVER....I will be scared to death watching him play, because like Micheal Vick...someday he will be clobbered. Oh, and I do...I just dont want to see him get hurt doing it!

As far as pure stupidity goes, has to be one of Dan Quayles quotes. Its hard to decide which one is best "If we do not succeed, then we run the risk of failure." "We're going to have the best educated American people in the world." "I love California, I practically grew up in Phoenix. " "Welcome to President Bush, Mrs. Bush, and my fellow astronauts. " "Illegitimacy is something we should talk about in terms of not having it. " "We are ready for any unforeseen event that may or may not occur. " "For NASA, space is still a high priority. " "I stand by all the misstatements that I've made. " ""It isn't pollution that's harming the environment. It's the impurities in our air and water that are doing it."" "We don't want to go back to tomorrow, we want to go forward." And from the quayles 1989 christmas card "May our nation continue to be the beakon of hope to the world." Man that was some great times... As far as killing any future political aspirations, the dean scream was a killer, though im sure there are others which rival it.

Recess appointments happen ALL THE TIME. This isnt anything new. This is actually the 106th time this administration has made a recess appointment.

Hmm...good plan. When you suck, go to a place where your suckiness wont be noticed. He might be team MVP. Its not like anyone is going to notice if Trent Dilfer gets sacked 100 times, or if their leading rusher only rushes for 400 yards.

As with any other player who is released, I am sure our guys are looking at him and thinking about it. I question the timing. It seems strange to cut him right at the start of camp. Why not a) way earlier if they new they wanted to get rid of him or b) at the end of camp when they realize he wont help them. I am not against bringing him in here, but I think the guys we have are going to get the job done.

JZMack smells like bigfoots d!ck.

Not good. He is not worth that kind of cash. Even worse, is that this sets the standard (if it wasnt already set) for what kind of deal mcgahee will want...

Thats not REALLY my point. My point is that I hate rosenhous. And if it costs us a 2nd round pick (roscoe) to teach the guy a lesson and have him lose some clients...I can support that. Plus it helps out with mcgahee. That said though, i would like him in camp. I just hate that SOB and would love to see him go down.

Ahh...keep saying it...oh yes...music to my ears! Hmm..just noticed it...wonder when my 1000th post was..

Only problem is that holcome is also new to the offense. So he needs to get a fair share of snaps as well.

Ya know..I might take some flack for this...but I almost wish we toe the line on roscoe. If he doesnt want to sign for what he is worth, let him re-enter the draft and be taken in the 5th round. Its a tough thing to do (giving up a 2nd), but it would help show how much of a POS Rosenhous is, and might help to protect against mcgahee looking to renegotiate. In fact, count me on board with not signing roscoe unless he gets a new agent. We have moulds/evans/reed/aiken...we dont NEED him. Lets make Rosenhouse look like a POS, and hopefully lose some clients.

Allen has one big hurdle though...and it might be Mark Warner (current gov) challenging him for his senate seat

Well, tried it...let me know what you think... QB Peyton Manning IND 1.10 8 QB Drew Bledsoe DAL 14.03 9 RB Carnell Williams TBB 4.03 7 RB Larry Johnson KCC 5.10 5 RB Travis Henry TEN 6.03 10 RB Labrandon Toefield JAC 10.03 7 RB Stephen Davis CAR 11.10 7 RB Dominic Rhodes IND 12.03 8 WR Marvin Harrison IND 2.03 8 WR Derrick Mason BAL 7.10 3 WR Isaac Bruce STL 8.03 9 WR Eddie Kennison KCC 9.10 5 WR David Givens NEP 15.10 7 TE Antonio Gates SDC 3.10 10 PK Ryan Longwell GBP 16.03 6 DT Washington Redskins WAS 13.10 3 I think this is close to genius. The risk is that of the 6 RBs i have, i only get one (or NO) starters. And you know henry, johnson and davis will produce. Lightning in a bottle. I like the rest of the team though. Note: for the purposes of this discussion, forget that i have both harrison and manning...it was a mistake on my part. I could have (and should have) taken Terrell Owens instead.

Im telling you. Watch for virginia this presidential election. George Allen will be a formidable republican candidate (very probably VP choice), and our Governor Mark Warner is a very good moderate democratic candidate. either can win a national election. My current 08 predictions ( D ) Mark Warner / Bill Richardson ( R ) John McCain / George Allen At least that would be an election that is good for america for once...

Classic. Also like: This is the year franchise savior Eli Manning shows the world he's a better quarterback than his older brother. His older brother named Cooper Manning. and Indianapolis Colts: The offense is remarkable, but the best linebacker in town is Ron Artest. Denver Broncos: The defensive line is gunning for help from Triple-A Cleveland, but QB Jake Plummer still has the pocket presence of lint. LoL. Good post.

You really have to be on top of your game to catch a guy like goings. I did the same last year. I had fred taylor and ahman green. Both struggled mightily last year, and even with Goings, I suffered. I agree, you cant really pass up a manning or a moss. But you NEED to take a RB with 2 of your top 3 picks. You really dont have much choice if you want to compete. You can roll the dice and hope you can grab a goings in FA...but by the end of the draft alot of backups even are taken (see Larry Johnson, Lebrandon Toefield, Davenport etc.). So you really have to wait for a Tomilson or McGahee or someone who has been healthy with a little known backup to get hurt to score big with a FA RB. For my money, ill take a manning in the first round, because he IS that much better than the #2 QB (McNabb or Cullpepper)...but if I do, its in the later stages of round 1, and I will turn around and grab a dominick davis, Tiki Barber, Jamal Lewis or Corey Dillion with my 2nd pick and i will have to turn around with my third pick and take a steven jackson, lamont jordan or Curtis Martin. I think you just have to do it. Especially in a league with 10+ teams. Now Randy Moss and Marvin Harrison...Yes they are good recievers. With the right scoring setup, they might be first rounders. But I would rather wait. Take that valuable running back, and then spend my top 3 non-rb pick on a chad johnson or Joe horn. Heck you can even wait and pick up a guy like Roy williams in the 4th or 5th. I am seeing drafts where lee evans and plexico burress go in the 8th round! If Evans picks up where he left off 1200 yards and 12 TDs is not unreasonable. Moss will have better numbers than that...but not a whole lot better. Point is, you can get good value in WR late in the draft. Spend those early picks on RBs unless a guy really falls. EDIT: Actually...I think im going to try something in one of my drafts this year (or at least some mock drafts). I am going to hold off on RB. Im going to grab a manning, TO/Harrison Tony Gonzalez etc. in my first few rounds. Then starting in about round 5 or 6 start taking a bunch of RBs hoping to strike gold. It will be an interesting experiment. I can maybe get Larry Johnson, Davenport, JJ Arrington, Toefield, any one of the Denver RBs. Maybe a travis henry or chris brown... Could be interesting. Might work actually.

Deal is for one year, at the franchise tag price. HOWEVER, it includes a no trade clause and a guarentee that the seahawks will not tag him after this season. Looks like its his last year in Seattle. Also look for big fantasy numbers from him as he has to prove his worth. http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/columns/story?id=2117337

I still feel the only way for a PK to improve his game is to go to a new team. Kicking is mostly mental, and once your confidence is gone...you're done.

Someday we will take back our country..

The problem is...yes randy moss is good...and he is a top scorer...seventh overall...maybe you take him. But he is not that much better than (lets say..) lee evans, who you can get in the 5th round. Point is that in a typical league there are 10-12 teams, each starting 2 RBs a week. That is 20-24 RBs right there. That leaves only 8 available starting RBs as backups. Then you get into teams like Cleveland, Tennessee, Jacksonville, Tampa and others whose RB situation is up in the air. The reason there is a run on RBs is that there are only 20-25 RBs that are suitable as starters. If you dont get your 2nd RB early, you are stuck with a travis henry or Lee Suggs, or if you are really lucky, you can grab the guy who takes over when someone gets hurt. If you dont, you get virtually no production out of your #2 RB slot. You can always pick up a WR or QB who will put up SOME numbers, but its near impossible to find a RB who will. If you are in a league where you can get a curtis martin in the late rounds...You better win that league! That is insane. he shold be a round 2 pick. Round 3 at the VERY latest.
