    Black QBs in the NFL

    Looks like the artificial push for black quarterbacks in the league has backfired this year with Smith and Manuel being rated at the top, most of the qb needy teams have settled their qb situations with White guys already in the league Albert Breer was on 95.7 and said that talking to NFL execs...

    Notable Unrestricted Free Agents

    Well at the moment Leonard might be a lost cause, he just needs a job at the moment, kind of how like Hester needed to take the job for the Broncos. There was talk from dwfs of using Leonard and Hester as featured backs after Hillis had his big season in 2010 but then all of the negative reports...

    Notable Unrestricted Free Agents

    well Blount looked like a former shell of himself after Martin took the starting job. I guess he figured it was his, despite his laziness, unwilling to pass block and lack of receiving skills. He barely tried once he wasn't the featured guy. Leonard makes perfect sense to fill in Blount's role...

    For argument's sake - White NFL Players with 4.3 Speed

    the list will always be incomplete because I think the people who put out the "official" times will screw over White players. There are tons of scouts with different times. They choose which one they want to put out there for the public, and I am guessing they usually go with the slowest. A...

    Notable Unrestricted Free Agents

    "Funny you should put it that way. Some of us curmedgeons here at CF have dogged Palmer in the past for his, in our opinion, coddling the afrolete thugs on his team. So if the 'lockerroom makeup' drove him away, all I've got to say to that is HA and HA. However I will agree he is a talented...

    Notable Unrestricted Free Agents

    don't think Palmer overvalued his worth, just won't accept lower pay to play for a crap franchise. I don't think he is very happy with the lockerroom makeup. Perhaps if he had a team like the Patriots or Broncos he would have a different mindset. Alex Smith doesn't have a noodle arm, that is...

    2013 NFL Combine

    I just checked out NFLDraftscout and they have Ryan Swope's 40 time at 4.28, with a low time of 4.26. I think its certainly possible that he cracked 4.3 which has been done electronically before (Chris Johnson comes to mind), but I don't think they could handle dwfs seeing a White guy run a sub...

    2013 NFL Combine

    I think its every blond haired qb period, because Clausen actually played at Notre Dame. All of these talks about how they can only evaluate arm strength live and now this guy comes out and saying from watching film and talking about arm strength and its taken as gospel being played on the...

    The Pussyfication of the NFL

    I don't see much of the actual crown of the helmet running getting into a defender at the second level, although my favorite Earl Campbell run is a prime example of this, now other parts of the helmet, that's a different story and I believe that is whats going to be the worst about this rule...

    Too many team subboards

    I think a lot of posters got spoiled and are now down and out about football. We had Welker break through with several seasons of 100+ 1k seasons, then in 2010 Hillis gets 1k rushing with 60+ catches as a starter, the same season Woodhead got 1k from scrimmage (including the playoff game because...

    The Top Ten Meatheads

    glancing over the descriptions, whenever a black player has some of those same qualities it always spun in some positive way like "he has swagger"...something that White people apparently can't possess. A shame Bosworth is only known for one play when he was pretty decent his first year just...

    2013 highlights of players going pro

    Kyle Juszczyk fullback/te, basically h-back whoever said this guy could be a rb in a fair league was right, he has the frame, size and speed to do it. He ran a 4.62 at his pro day but somehow that has been changed by some sites to 4.71, some even have it at 4.77. He only had 2 rush attempts but...

    The Pussyfication of the NFL

    how is this even going to work? its instinctive when you run, you don't necessarily want to put your head into someone when running but you lower your pads and the last time I checked, the head is attached above the shoulders and gets in the way sometimes. I saw the clip of them "showing"...

    Black QBs in the NFL

    it seems like teams are going to be forced into picking up Geno Smith and EJ Manuel despite most of the qb needy teams saying that there is no "wow" factor with this qb class, and there isn't, with those 2 ranked at the top by most.

    Early Look at the "deep" 2013 Draft

    I think he had to sign Chase Daniel on top of giving up high picks for Alex Smith in order not to being forced into picking up Geno Smith. Now they are trying to get rid of sumo Brandon Albert so it looks like they might get a left tackle. I have been wanting Chase to get a shot though, he has...

    Tommy Zbikowski, S

    2 of those guys could start at corner and 2 at safety, I know it will never happen but I can dream. The question in my dream scenario is would you start Tommy Z at corner over Hardin or Conte? He could do it, but those guys have experience playing corner in college. Tommy was supposed to be a...

    2013 NFL Combine

    I can only find 2, the only one where he missed significant playing time was against La Tech and even that one was very mild. The one against Oklahoma state didn't seem that bad and no trainers came to his attention and he went back in, but it was labeled a concussion. Apparently he got a big...

    Ryan Swope-WR Texas A&M

    yes a poster on a forum put it the best, which would you rather, big hands of stone or smaller soft hands that catch everything?

    2013 NFL Combine

    I am still trying to find where these other 2 concussions occurred for Ryan Swope. The one against OSU didn't even look bad, the coaches talked to him, and then he walks off to the sidelines fine, takes his helmet off, the medical staff really isn't coming to his attention. He goes back in and...

    2013 NFL Combine

    yes, Best suffered two concussions in a span of two weeks and missed the rest of the season, decided not to go back his next season and declared, 1st round pick, and those weren't his only concussions or injuries, he had a foot injury, dislocated elbow, just injury prone in general. But yeah...

    2013 NFL Combine

    yeah, that concussion must have been so terrible being that he came back the next week and put up 10 catches against LSU. When were the other supposed ones? because he played every game from what I recall. His concussion issue is much different from Jahvid Best, he was actually moving around...

    2013 NFL Combine

    yep, an almost identical weight (1 pound difference with Chase an inch taller) with a 4.91 at the actual combine. Jarvis Jones broad jump would have tied for last at the combine.

    2013 NFL Combine

    Yes, for some reason McGuffie struggled with vision when running traditional running plays, or in general. Although it didn't see to be as big of a problem at Michigan where the holes were bigger, he had creases to work with at Rice, which is what he will see in the NFL, but he did put up 1200...

    Dennis Pitta

    Looks more like a big wide receiver that could put up Gronkowski/Jimmy Graham type stats if utilized more. I wonder what he would look like lined up in Boldin's spot.
