Teams took him off draft boards because of it. Yet another case of the Lions prioritising talent over red flags

Watching the Senior Bowl and Ansah is looking good at DE.

The QB's suck badly

by GSC Sat 26 Jan 2013, 10:21 pm

EJ Manuel looks the only semi decent guy haha. Matched to the Eagles quite a lot, said he wants to play for Chip apparently. Worth a 3rd as a prospect with years to develop.

by crazy_dave23 Sat 26 Jan 2013, 10:32 pm

The QBs are indeed horrible so far.

Dysert had some ground balls and Glennon just had one... fail

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Sat 26 Jan 2013, 10:37 pm

Landry Jones awful under any sort of pressure.
Tyler Wilson don't have the arm to make deep throws.

How can one class be so good and one class look so bad!

by GSC Sat 26 Jan 2013, 10:38 pm

Because everybody good came out last or next year?

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Sat 26 Jan 2013, 10:40 pm

That Nassib linked with the Bills cos of the Syracuse link looks absolutely abysmal. So so inaccurate missing wide open guys! Ryan Fitzpatrick looks like Peyton Manning compared to him on this showing!

by GSC Sat 26 Jan 2013, 10:41 pm

Worth saying it is QBs playing with guys they've practiced with for a few days even if they do look horrendous.

by cherriesfna Tue 29 Jan 2013, 9:57 am

the jets are looking at Jamarus Russel

ahahahhahahahahahahaha
they dont help themselves do they

by GSC Tue 29 Jan 2013, 10:27 am

He's a former first overall pick, worth a gamble for vets min and see if he shows some actual dedication and application.

by **Pr4wn** Tue 29 Jan 2013, 10:28 am

Mickey Loomis has signed an extension with the Saints.

by cherriesfna Tue 29 Jan 2013, 10:35 am

if Jamarus can lose about 70 pounds he may being worth sumthing

by GSC Tue 29 Jan 2013, 10:47 am

Hence the dedication and application part picard

Crisp Kelly and Dennis Dixon reuniting to take over the NFL.

by GSC Tue 29 Jan 2013, 3:04 pm

Also if we're being fair, if Ted Thompson, or Bill Belichick check out JaMarcus its a 'saavy' move.

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Tue 29 Jan 2013, 3:06 pm

I'm going out on a limb and will say JaMarcus Russell will win the Comeback Player of the Year award next season

by GSC Tue 29 Jan 2013, 3:10 pm

I'm going out on a limb and say he doesn't make a roster opening day. No harm kicking the tyres though.

by Number-25 Tue 29 Jan 2013, 4:32 pm

Can I go out even further on a limb and say that he won't make a roster on any day ever again anywhere in the NFL? Too much water under the bridge for Russell to come back now. Even if he does lose the weight, he'll never be able to escape the fact that he just wasn't that good in the first place.

Now, if he kept the weight on and decided to try out as a Nose Tackle, then he might have a shot!

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Tue 29 Jan 2013, 5:27 pm

Randy Moss providing some great stuff at the media day! This is my fav

Jeff Howe @jeffphowe
Moss: "If I did ever have an imaginary girlfriend, I never told anyone about it.

Rob Ryan isn't the DC in St Louis anymore

by Number-25 Tue 29 Jan 2013, 6:22 pm

Oh dear, that's turning into a long 5 minutes....

by GSC Tue 29 Jan 2013, 6:31 pm

Such a shame Moss. When he was motivated he was the best WR to play the game bar none. But Rice had the work ethic that Moss could never touch.

Thank good for that, really didn't want him at St Louis

No I never got that fit. Rams have 4-3 personnel, and Ryan really isnt a good DC

by Humbert-Hench Tue 29 Jan 2013, 7:02 pm

He'll go to the Eagles - lucky escape for the Rams I think... No imagine - just rigid 3-4, backs to the wall stuff

by GSC Tue 29 Jan 2013, 7:05 pm

Would be a surprise, Eagles havent had any interest. Their guy is coaching this sunday I suspect

by RDuncan8 Tue 29 Jan 2013, 7:14 pm

Ray Lewis been sniffing those deer antlers...

“I think it’s just better for me and Coach,” Castillo said, via Jeff McLane of the Philadelphia Inquirer. “One day I’ll come back to him.”

Still a better love story than twilight

Great map

Jets Laugh

Anyone seen this?

Haven't studied it closely, but i think its fair to say the throw from the top of the stadium isn't real.

I can believe the balloons, thats about it.

by GSC Wed 30 Jan 2013, 7:07 pm

Just throwing this out there. What if Kaepernick gets hurt and Alex Smith turns heel on the 49ers?

by Bull Wed 30 Jan 2013, 7:13 pm

Is it bad i prefer Smith over Kaepernick?

Ends up on the Ravens next year

by Bull Wed 30 Jan 2013, 10:00 pm

That would be awesome as i prefer Smith!

Costs the 9ers the game and then goes and celebrates with Ray Lewis as the Ravens pick up the trophy. Followed by a middle finger salute and Stone Cold style beer bash.

What do people think about Chris Cullivers homophobic comments? Might be the wrong 49er DB.

by GSC Fri 01 Feb 2013, 5:55 pm

I think a suspension may be in his future. Horrendous thing to say in 2013, and reinforces the negative perception that gay athletes should hide their sexuality for their own good.

by GSC Fri 01 Feb 2013, 6:36 pm

Also given hes cheap and seems to have peed off the team, I doubt hes too secure in his roster spot for 2013

by GSC Fri 01 Feb 2013, 7:30 pm

The whole buildup to this SB has been stupid if I'm honest. Ray killed bambi and a San Francisco team hates gays

by crazy_dave23 Fri 01 Feb 2013, 7:45 pm

Ray didn't kill Bambi...

He just used a product somebody else made by killing Bambi Smile

by **Pr4wn** Fri 01 Feb 2013, 8:15 pm

Ray didn't kill Bambi...

Ray killed a guy outside a nightclub!

Awards for the season have been handed out..

MVP - Adrian Peterson
OPOY- Adrian Peterson
DPOY - JJ Watt
Comeback player - Peyton Manning
OROY- RG3
DROY - Luke Kuechly

Pretty fair all round, I want to see the voting for MVP I reckon it must have been pretty close, seeing as Peyton was the only other person to get any votes
