This is a very simple pick really. According to my mock, every defensive tackle/end that is worthy of the 16th overall pick is gone off the board, so despite having a great need on the defensive line especially since Kyle Vanden Bosch is now a Detroit Lion, I’m going to ...Published on: 24th March, 2010
The San Francisco 49ers are a team that has undergone a severe change of history and culture. In the Super Bowl era, the 49ers controlled the 1980s due to the genius of their head coach and general manager Bill Walsh. Walsh was an innovator who created the West Coast Offense that was ...Published on: 24th February, 2010
I said in my last article that the Redskins would actually take an entirely different player. Here's actually the link to who I think they SHOULD take: http://bleacherreport.com/articles/351271-2010-nfl-mock-draft-redskins-should-but-wont-select-russell-okung Now, I do honestly expect quarterback Sam Bradford out of the University of Oklahoma to be drafted fourth overall by the 'Skins. Apparently Redskins owner, ...Published on: 22nd February, 2010
This past year, the Buccaneers wore their old uniforms in a game for the first time in years. Those old uniforms had little but bitter losses and lots of bad jokes attached to them. The Buccaneers have the sad honor of having the worst team of all time in the '76-77 expansion Buccaneers ...Published on: 6th January, 2010
It is simply an injustice. I would think that after years of John Madden on Sunday Night Football praising offensive linemen, the sportswriters and award voters would learn to give consideration to offensive linemen when it comes to prestigious awards. Just recently, Percy Harvin was given the Offensive Rookie of the Year award ...Published on: 30th December, 2009
After 10 years of being the head coach of the Texas Tech Raiders, Mike Leach has just been fired. He was fired because of a situation with wide receiver Adam James, who had suffered a concussion, and the official reason is that Leach violated medical procedure by having James confined indoors. Some ...Published on: 1st December, 2009
The semi-finalist list for the Hall of Fame class of 2010 was announced, and I was puzzled at the inclusion of a few names, but one really stood out in particular. The former commissioner, Paul Tagliabue, who was in charge of the NFL from 1989 to 2006 was a nominee. Huh? Paul Tagliabue ...Published on: 29th November, 2009
Despite their recent slump, I have always had an infatuation with the mystique and history of the Oakland/Los Angeles Raiders. To me, the Raiders are the greatest team of all time, not because of their three Super Bowls, but at how dominant they are at every position of the ...Published on: 23rd November, 2009
My father and I were talking last Saturday as we saw the Fighting Irish fall to the Huskers in double overtime. My father questioned why Notre Dame should fire Charlie Weis because to him, it looked like Weis's players were failing him. I quickly corrected him by telling him how "awesome," Jimmy ...Published on: 16th November, 2009
One of the few absolute things I can say that I've learned throughout my time as a writer is that every team needs at least a decent quarterback. He doesn't have to be elite though. Take the Pittsburgh Steelers for example. The Steeler fans may not agree with this assessment, but Ben Roethlisberger is ...
