  1. unfortunately my QB stable is Hasselback, Cassell and Cutler...my options are limited...i may keep cutler, thinking about either Kerry Collins, Brady Quinn and Marc Bulger(they are the 'best' of the available FA's). Who would be the better option? I am thinking Quinn, but who knows if he will even keep the starting role.....

     

     

    Keep the three you have.

  2. 3 voted for Buffalo (Hey, at least we are being noticed) :rolleyes:

     

    Sean McCormick:

    The Buffalo Bills select Sam Bradford, quarterback, Oklahoma.

     

    Aaron Schatz:

    I so wanted to write that Seattle would take Sam Bradford with the top pick they got from Denver... but we don't know what Bradford's injury does to his draft status, and there's actually an AFC team that's a bigger mess than Denver, so: Buffalo selects Nebraska defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh.

     

     

    Vince Verhei:

    I've been set for months to make a joke here about Seattle using Denver's pick to take Sam Bradford. Then Bradford hurt his shoulder, and the Buffalo Bills got even messier than they were before, cutting coaches and tackles willy-nilly. So now I think the Bills, in their never-ending desperate quest to sell tickets, will use the first pick to select the player with the best resume in college football history: Tim Tebow. Maybe they'll even bring in Jon Gruden to coach him.

  3. A RB that catches the ball....

     

    MJD? TURNER? JACKSON? FORTE?

     

    Who would you pick?

     

     

    In a PPR draft:

     

    1.Maurice Jones Drew

    2.Matt Forte

    3.Steven Jackson

     

    I like Drew-but you can't go wrong with any of these backs.

     

    Turner isn't even a consideration as he doesn't catch out of the backfield and he is most likely to see a drop in his rushing yards. In a PPR league he shouldn't be taken in the top 10.

  4. Edwards / throwing downfield

    Posted Sep. 01 at 04:32 PM

    As key for the Buffalo Bills, as they toy around with a no-huddle offense is whether Trent Edwards can throw effectively downfield.

     

    Edwards is a careful, accurate quarterback. He completed 65.5 percent of his passes last year, which is the highest ever by a quarterback in his second year. That record used to be held by Joe Montana.

     

    But way too many of Edwards’ passes are of the harmless short variety – a 5-yard dumpoff to a fullback on third-and-13. He’s got a great pair of receivers at his disposal – Terrell Owens and Lee Evans. He’s got to put the ball downfield and give those guys chances to make plays.

     

    It’s worrying, then, when you look at the preseason numbers. Edwards hasn’t played a lot. And Owens has been on the sideline for three games. But he looks like the same old Trent Edwards. Down at 7.3 yards per completion, which is lower than any team has finished with since the move to the 16-game schedule in 1978 – over 30 years ago.

     

    How Edwards compares to other teams in the preseason. This is yards per completion (not yards per attempt):

    47 633 13.5 Cincinnati Bengals

  5. In the had some extra time on my hands category, I attempted an all time HOF Mock Draft.

     

    I had Bruce going 13th and Kelly going 30th. Have TO going 26th (a lock for the HOF I would think).

     

    Syracuse's Jim Brown going first.

     

    Full list is here: http://ultimatemockdraft.com/

     

     

    Just read your fantasy football rankings for this year that you have posted this year.

     

    You have Maurice Jones-Drew ranked 31st!!!!!! LMFAO

     

    Any openings in your league?

  6. Well that's discouraging to read. I plan to attend for the first time ever this Friday afternoon with the wife and my 9 and 11 year old sons. We are coming all the way from Denver so I hope as part of the aforementioned great unwashed my boys do not end up too disillusioned. Any tips for when, where to go at what time for both viewing and autographs would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance for any such posts as I will be off line for a while, so don't think me unappreciative for any helpful replies.

    Training Camp-Autograph Zone

     

     

    If your sons want autographs be sure to be on the initial buses headed over to training camp.

     

    Your sons should immediately get in line at the Autograph Zone.

    According to the schedule -McGee and McKelvin will be signing that day.

    It's worth getting in the line as early as possible, as then they will be guaranteed autographs from two very good players.

  7. When Losman came into the NFL- Jaworski rated the top 4 QB's in the draft in this order for future NFL success:

     

    1. Manning

     

    2. Roethlisberger

     

    3. Losman

     

    4. Rivers

     

     

    Not to mention--wasn't he all over Kellen Clemons a few years ago?

    Yeah-just looked it up.

    "I watched every game of his college career, every throw he made, and based on game performance I had him rated No. 1 amongst the quarterbacks in this draft," Jaworski said of Clemens.

    He rated Clemons ahead of Cutler.

     

    I've listened to Jaworski for years and take his anaylsis with a grain of salt. Blah,blah, blah. :rolleyes:

  8. @#$%ing around with a 20-year old?! Guess that learned ya, huh, Steve? Yeah. I removed my earlier post with the tears. But, here's some tears for your wife and kids. :thumbsup:

     

     

    Cablelady:

     

    What class you have, so now he deserved to die?

     

    Bizarre response, is there a way you can remove ALL of your past posts while your at it and also force you to have some class, dignity and brains in future ones? If so I'm all for it.

  9. Very sad news. I have much respect for Steve NcNair the player and the man.

     

    I love one of the the ESPN stories where they interview him and his mother.The love and respect he had for her was so strong it burst through the screen.

     

    He actually bought her the plantation (over 600 acres) she had worked on as a kid. He then built a big house for her on the property.

     

    RIP Steve. :thumbsup:

  10. Vontae Davis-DB- Dolphins Jun. 23 - 3:27 pm et

     

    Dolphins first-round pick Vontae Davis was arrested in Champaign (IL) on June 9 for "unnecessary vehicular noise" and driving without a valid license, according to The Daily Illini.

    The Daily Illini is the school paper at Illinois, where Davis played college ball. A police spokeswoman says the arrest happened during a routine traffic stop. Vernon's little brother, Davis was red flagged by some teams entering the draft for behavior issues and two benchings by U of I coach Ron Zook. He's been outplayed by second-round cornerback Sean Smith at offseason OTA's.
