Posted Saturday May 18, 2013, About: Josh Cribbs says Jets' worries a 'negotiation tactic'

And I disagree with your assessment under the premise that when players sign a contract, they don't play in the past, the play in the present and the near future.

How the Oakland Raiders performed for the majority of the last decade is completely irrelevant. As recent as 2011 Al Davis was still the owner and GM of the Oakland Raiders. How does that help predict their future with owner Mark Davis and GM Reggie McKenzie? It doesn't.

The Oakland Raiders are on the incline & the New York Jets are on the decline. That's pretty much all that anyone needs to know when deciding between the two teams.

He'd likely have to play in the Arena league to make that happen.

Just be happy you didn't marry her. Then she'd get half your $50 million guaranteed... instead of one ridiculously overpriced engagement ring.

Posted Saturday May 18, 2013, About: Cowboys sign Anthony Hargrove

[quote]Hargrove was signed by the Green Bay Packers in March 2012 but was released in August, which may have been related to the eight-game suspension he received from the NFL for his alleged involvement in the New Orleans Saints' bounty scandal.[/quote]
It's also possible that he wasn't good enough to make the team.

I remember back in 2011 when Anthony Hargrove wasn't good enough to make the Philadelphia Eagles roster. They cut him before the season started.

So you're telling me that he was good enough to make the Green Bay Packer's roster in 2012? Doubtful. It's not like any other team signed him after the Packers cut him.

He's just not that good anymore. I don't think he's worth a news article. And I'd be relatively surprised if he made the Dallas Cowboys roster this year.

[quote]So they showed up to his door. "I'm on the toilet," Carr said.[/quote]
He yelled that out the front door? And they didn't believe him?

Agreed.

My first thought on this topic was how far removed it is from the Giant's standard MO.

I always thought there was a legal liability involved in releasing someone solely based on medical claims. But I'm assuming that must not apply to non-football related injuries/illnesses occurring in the off-season.

Posted Tuesday May 14, 2013, About: The best receivers in the AFC East?

I think this is more of a "tallest m[i][/i]id[b][/b]get" debate.

Brandon Gibson isn't worth mentioning. I'm not certain that Dustin Keller is either. They're collective stat sheets are mediocre at best.

And while we're on the topic of pointing out 'injury-prone' players, Keller sat out eight games last year.

Most importantly, none of Miami's three receiving targets mentioned were even on the team last year. So there's absolutely zero guarantee of chemistry.

In what metric?

Posted Monday May 13, 2013, About: Panthers plan to sign CFL #1 overall pick

Su[i][/i]c[b][/b]ks for the team that drafted him though. They had to have been pretty bad to be selecting #1 overall... now they just burned their top pick on a player that won't even suit up.

Posted Monday May 13, 2013, About: Panthers plan to sign CFL #1 overall pick

That's great. The NFL should target more CFL players.

The only thing I don't like is that he didn't have to go through the NFL draft process.

Aaron Curry was taken #4 overall.

Brian Cushing and Clay Matthews were still on the board.

Posted Sunday May 12, 2013, About: Aaron Curry signs with New York Giants

I remember when Aaron Curry was drafted... he was considered the safest pick in the draft, the one guy who there was no chance would be a bust.

No such thing as a safe pick.

I'm not sure where you got this "Win out and make the playoffs" nonsense from. Nick Foles first breakout game didn't come until [i]after[/i] the Eagles already had 8 losses on the season.

Posted Sunday May 12, 2013, About: Why Matt Barkley could win Eagles QB race

There used to be a general consensus on Jeff Tedford QBs, including Trent Dilfer, David Carr, Akili Smith, Joey Harrington, Kyle Boller.

Then Aaron Rodgers came around.

Every player is different.

Posted Sunday May 12, 2013, About: Why Matt Barkley could win Eagles QB race

Agreed. It's surprising to me how many people fail to see the correlation between Matt Barkley's quick decision making & Chip Kelly's uptempo pace.

Posted Sunday May 12, 2013, About: Why Matt Barkley could win Eagles QB race

He used the #4 overall pick on an offensive tackle because he has no interest in fixing the offensive line?
