NFL Quick Hits (Oct. 10th) Eli Manning still questionable, Jerricho Cotchery not a lock for Monday Night, and more

(Cotchery’s hamstring could keep him out.) Eli Manning Participates in Saturday Practice This just means he would probably play if he absolutely had to. But since the rush attack is operating smoothly, the defense is competing at an elite level, and they’re facing the Oakland Raiders, there isn’t much sense in rushing Manning back. Still, [...]

NFL Quick Hits (Oct. 7th) Braylon Edwards a Jet, Michael Crabtree a 49er and more

Braylon Edwards Traded to New York Jets The Browns ridded of the under-performing Edwards for Chansi Stuckey and two draft picks. This immediately causes caution for Derek Anderson’s value, but should make Mohamed Massaquoi’s value soar. Edwards, on the other hand, should develop into a fine down-field weapon for Mark Sanchez, but you should give [...]

NFL Quick Hits (Oct. 6th) Eli Manning Gets Second Opinion, Michael Crabtree to Meet With 49ers, and more

(Should the Steelers run with the hot hand in Mendenhall?) Michael Crabtree Meeting With 49ers Today On the surface, all this means is that Crabtree doesn’t actually want to sit out the entire season, and the ‘Niners will probably win this contract battle. This doesn’t make Crabtree a hot commodity all of a sudden, however, [...]

NFL Quick Hits (Oct. 5th) Braylon Edwards Accused of Hitting Man, Eli Manning and Matthew Stafford Hurt, and more

(Is Braylon Crumbling in his contract year?) Giants’ Eli Manning May Have Plantar Fascitis This is the injury that was originally reported on Sunday. While it’s not guaranteed to make Manning miss any time, taking him out for next week’s cakewalk match-up with Oakland would be a smart decision by the coaching staff. Considering the [...]

Like any other writer, I kick myself when I see a writer like Brandon Funston (and other Yahoo! Sports writers) come up with a smartly-themed piece like “10 Players I Hate More Than You”. Not because it’s ingenious or brings in traffic, but more because I love to hate on certain players, and it pains [...]

Fantasy Football Tier Rankigs: Wide Receivers

In several mock drafts, Larry Fitzgerald, Randy Moss, and Andre Johnson have taken turns being the first receiver off the board, and all three have found themselves drafted in the first round on at least a few occasions. But those are easy calls. It’s difficult to assess talent and environment, and after the first tier [...]

Fantasy Football Preview: AFC Wide Receivers

The running back position has been covered. Now to the prima donnas, the popcorn, and the drama. Or should I say, the gun-hoarding, gold grill flashing, girlfriend abusing, fantasy all-stars? At this point, yes, I could say that. But it’s June, it’s warm out, and I’m feeling good about most of the top receivers in [...]

Will Brett Favre Be A Viking If He Returns?

If he does play again, will it be in a dome or on grass? Will he be throwing passes under the sun, or against gusts of wind and snow? Will he be in a different shade of green, or jump boldly into purple? There are plenty of questions surrounding the recent news of Brett Favre’s [...]

The Top 10 2009 NFL Draft Bust Candidates

With every draft that comes and goes, we’re reminded both of the stars that emerge out of it, as well as the over-hyped duds that never establish themselves. For every sack-machine or touchdown king, there is a Dan Wilkinson or Curtis Enis. The trick is, who are these guys, and how can NFL general managers [...]

Go Back to Round 1 Round 2 33. Detroit Lions – James Laurinaits, ILB, Ohio State After getting their franchise quarterback and tackle, it’s time to beef up their defense.
