http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2015/05/06/nfl-may-discipline-tom-brady-over-deflategate/ What kind of discipline is Brady facing? That’s impossible to say, given that there’s never been a rules violation like this in NFL history. The league might consider a fine to be severe enough, but a suspension can’t be ruled out.

Under that scenario...it's a good thing they upgraded the structural / foundation work with the recent rehab. That would be an unreal environment...

So, does Brady get suspended for at least the first two games...

That would be my take as well. Perhaps Chip doesn't like the braves questioning the chief. (Doh! Yet another ethnic group whose sensibilities might be ruffled)

How about...sell magazines? Sort of the same thing Sully and the Buck-ster do every day?

Shady's comments are just a 'fart in the wind' until December 13th. That week should be interesting, however...

And now Florio has picked up on it.... http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2015/05/06/lesean-mccoy-chip-kelly-got-rid-of-all-the-black-players/ Ditto...

Don't let the !@#$s get you down, Yolo. Keep posting things to talk about and let people decide what's interesting on their own.

I can't see the NFL adding to the circus-like atmosphere by getting nit picky here...

True. But my point to the poster was that the fifth WR position is still open. If Pryor at 6'4" 230 could show anything at WR in camp, he'd be an intriguing match up option...

Why wouldn't he be capable of beating the last four out. Lewis will likely end up on the practice squad and Thigpen is redundant now that Harvin is on board. That leaves Goodwin and Hogan, neither of which are that entrenched, IMO...

"Collins met with Buffalo coach Rex Ryan in a Baton Rouge restaurant on Monday night. Ryan was reportedly in the area and did not contact Collins’ agent. It was an unsanctioned meeting. ESPN’s Mike Rodak reported this morning that “It remains unlikely — despite Rex’s dinner — that the Bills sign La’el Collins.”

Boom... http://nesn.com/2015/05/report-patriots-have-reached-out-shown-interest-in-lael-collins/

The Goodell family still has deep affection for the Jamestown area and spends time whenever they can at Chatauqua...

I envy your ability to lurk over there. The Dolphin boards I visited during Clay-watch were filled with low football IQ adolescents, with very little in the way of intelligent football talk or even adult conversation. Just name calling and asinine comments about other teams. Sort of like the PPP board here...

OK. Let's add..."Who's spending aggressively, wants to win now and takes care of players like Shady, Clay, Harvin..."

A new owner who's among the richest in the NFL doesn't hurt Rex's credibility...

His parents seems to be involved, which may help with his decision. Rex vs. a bunch of young Dolphins players? You make the call...

Don't they own the Bandits as well?

Wow. That's really an odd way to recruit, unless they already have a deal and the Fins' LSU contingent is a welcoming committee..

And mis-pronounce his name...

Oooh...Now this is interesting! Gotta get the Pegula charm all over this: http://www.prioritysports.biz/football/staff Deryk Gilmore (Collins' agent) is a certified contract advisor for Priority Sports. Prior to joining the Priority team, Deryk was involved with college athletics for over 11 years working in football as a Recruiting Coordinator and Director of Football Operations in both the Big Ten and Pac Ten conferences. A New York native, Gilmore lettered and played defensive tackle for the Penn State Nittany Lions, a member of the 1986 National Championship Team. After graduating from college, Gilmore went on to the University of Illinois where he began his work in football evaluating and recruiting the top high school players in the country. Developing unique strategies to market high school prospects, Gilmore helped the Illini recruit players that would take Illinois to the first major bowl game in 10 years. Deryk was then hired by the University of Oregon where he led the Ducks to a top 10 recruiting class in football and top 5 class in basketball, their highest ranked classes in the program’s history. Gilmore, known for his creative marketing strategies has been featured in a number of sports publications. Deryk has a Bachelor of Science from Penn State in Agribusiness Management and an MBA in Operations and MS in Sports Marketing from the University of Illinois. He and his wife Camille, live in Atlanta, GA, with their sons Dantae’ and Deion. Deryk and his wife, Camille, were recently profiled in Essence Magazine.

Also, the connection with Tannenbaum and the agent. All things being equal, you generally try to support your friends...

Maybe. It was a good sign that he had his parents there, so maybe they will factor into the decision as well. Still a very long shot, though, given the Fin's visit today (after already having a pre-draft visit with them in April)...
