Re: 2010 NFL Off-Season Rumors and Reports (Week 8)
 

Non-football? I want details!

Apparently their RT Ryan Harris is also not ready from toe surgery, so they may end up playing their second-round pick rookie tackle somewhere to open the season, probably at Clady's LT spot. They drafted him for RT, so it could be a big test for him to play LT.

Re: 2010 NFL Off-Season Rumors and Reports (Week 8)
 

not much out there on Clady's injury, actually already had the surgery:

Fox 31 Alert: I just got off the phone with R. Clady. He spoke briefly. Clady says that he's hopeful he will be "ready for training camp."

2 sources told Fox31 they heard Clady had some type of procedure on his knee. When I asked Clady did you have surgery he replied "yeah."

Yeah, I think now would be a good time for me to stop the Clady/T. Williams comparisons.

Clady may be seriously hurt. It's time to wrap up that trade for Jammal Brown ASAP.

TRENT --- NO BASKETBALL GAMES THIS SUMMER

Re: 2010 NFL Off-Season Rumors and Reports (Week 8)
 

Also props to Todd McShay. Guy was pretty spot on about the top 10 in 2010 a year in advance including selecting our very own Trent Willimas to go fourth overall, albeit to the Raiders. Remember this was done in April [I]2009[/I].

[B]Oklahoma dominates 2010 mock draft[/B]

[B]Plenty of linemen on the board; two quarterbacks and one wide receiver make the cut[/B]


[B]1. [URL="http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/clubhouse?team=stl"]St. Louis Rams[/URL] -- Sam Bradford, QB, Oklahoma[/B]

College football's most accurate passer could emerge as the top overall pick in 2010. The Rams should be in position to draft their future franchise quarterback after passing on Mark Sanchez in this year's draft.

[B]2. [URL="http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/clubhouse?team=cle"]Cleveland Browns[/URL] -- Ndamukong Suh, DT, Nebraska[/B]

Suh is an underrated talent with quickness, power and versatility.

[B]3. [URL="http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/clubhouse?team=det"]Detroit Lions[/URL] -- Russell Okung, OT, Oklahoma State[/B]

The Lions should be in the market for a starting left tackle to protect the blind side of 2009 No. 1 overall pick Matthew Stafford.

[B]4. [URL="http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/clubhouse?team=oak"]Oakland Raiders[/URL] -- Trent Williams, OT, Oklahoma[/B]

Oakland drafted a wide receiver (Darrius Heyward-Bey) at No. 7 overall this year rather than solidifying its offensive line with OT Eugene Monroe. The Raiders shouldn't make the same mistake in 2010.

[B]5. [URL="http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/clubhouse?team=kan"]Kansas City Chiefs[/URL] -- Jermaine Gresham, TE, Oklahoma[/B]

The Chiefs will have some bigger needs along the offensive and defensive lines, but Gresham projects as the premier tight end in the 2010 class. He could become the replacement for future Hall of Fame TE Tony Gonzalez, who was traded to the Falcons, providing QB Matt Cassell a legitimate pass-catching threat over the middle.

[B]6. [URL="http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/clubhouse?team=sea"]Seattle Seahawks[/URL] (from Denver) -- Colt McCoy, QB, Texas[/B]

A year from now the Seahawks could be in the market for Matt Hasselbeck's future replacement and don't be surprised if McCoy emerges as a top-10 pick by then. [B]

7. [URL="http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/clubhouse?team=jac"]Jacksonville Jaguars[/URL] -- Gerald McCoy, DT, Oklahoma[/B]

The Jaguars need to replenish their interior defensive line and McCoy is college football's most disruptive tackle when he's healthy.

So I guess we have a few guys to keep an eye on next year.

[IMG]http://a.espncdn.com/i/insider/numbers/1.png[/IMG][B][URL="http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/clubhouse?team=buf"]Buffalo Bills[/URL][/B]

[IMG]http://assets.espn.go.com/i/teamlogos/nfl/sml/trans/buf.gif[/IMG]
[URL="http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/player/profile?playerId=380470"]Andrew Luck[/URL]*, QB, Stanford

Only a third-year sophomore this fall but coach Jim Harbaugh has Luck on the fast track mechanically and mentally. Luck has prototypical size (6-foot-4, 235 pounds) and is an underrated athlete. More importantly, he has a smooth over-the-top delivery, a strong arm and great touch as a passer. Better decisions while gaining more game experience could put Luck in position to become the top player taken in the draft -- either in 2011 or 2012.


[IMG]http://a.espncdn.com/i/insider/numbers/2.png[/IMG][B][URL="http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/clubhouse?team=stl"]St. Louis Rams[/URL][/B]

[IMG]http://assets.espn.go.com/i/teamlogos/nfl/sml/trans/stl.gif[/IMG]
Marcell Dareus*, DT, Alabama

After taking QB Sam Bradford with the top overall pick in 2010, the Rams go back to the well with another first-round defensive lineman in Dareus, who is a remarkable athlete for his size (6-4, 296 pounds).

[B][URL="http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/clubhouse?team=kan"]Kansas City Chiefs[/URL][/B]

[IMG]http://assets.espn.go.com/i/teamlogos/nfl/sml/trans/kan.gif[/IMG]
Anthony Castonzo, OT, Boston College

The Chiefs target a bookend starter opposite OT Branden Albert. Castonzo has the long arms, lateral agility and balance to emerge as a top-shelf left tackle prospect next year.

[B][URL="http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/clubhouse?team=tam"]Tampa Bay Buccaneers[/URL][/B]

[IMG]http://assets.espn.go.com/i/teamlogos/nfl/sml/trans/tam.gif[/IMG]
Adrian Clayborn, DE, Iowa

The Bucs continue to overhaul their defensive line via the draft. Clayborn could team up with the young defensive tackle tandem of Gerald McCoy (pick No. 3 this year) and Brian Price (pick No. 35) to give Tampa Bay one of the youngest, most talented defensive fronts in the NFL.


[B][URL="http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/clubhouse?team=cle"]Cleveland Browns[/URL][/B]

[IMG]http://assets.espn.go.com/i/teamlogos/nfl/sml/trans/cle.gif[/IMG]
Cameron Heyward, DE, Ohio State

Heyward is a local product with the size, power and quickness to give the Browns' base 3-4 defensive front more scheme flexibility.

[IMG]http://a.espncdn.com/i/insider/numbers/11.png[/IMG] [B][URL="http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/clubhouse?team=was"]Washington Redskins[/URL][/B]

[IMG]http://assets.espn.go.com/i/teamlogos/nfl/sml/trans/was.gif[/IMG]
DeAndre McDaniel, S, Clemson

McDaniel is the complete package at safety and he's coming off a 102-tackle, eight-interception season as a junior. Another strong campaign in 2010 should stamp his spot in Round 1 of next year's draft.

If we are adopting the "Win NOW" philosophy, then why the hell isn't this guy on our roster? He is heads and shoulders better than anyone we have right now as an interior line.

I was going to post something similar too. Seriously, since Shanny is so big on competition at every position, bring him in. What competition is there on the OL. In that other thread, everyone on here pretty wel agrees who are starters will be. Even if we just signed him for depth, I'd bet he'd wind up starting.

I guess shanahan doesn't feel like the 8 time pro bowler could improve the strait solid line we have as of now.

Shanny can do no wrong????? Like passing Bruce Campbell up in the 4TH ROUND..........?
I'm getting a little tired of the "gotta have faith" BS. Anyone ever thought that he is doing exactly what players usually do when they come to DC? Cashing a HUGE paycheck at their local bank? Sorry, but Donovan mcnabb and Artis Hicks, along with 8 TE's and aging RB's do not get me all excited.

you complain about aging rb's yet you want an 8 time pro bowler no one else wants? kinda like passing on campbell there is always a reason and atleast now that reason is not vinny cerrato

Well, the aging RBs we've gotten have had either not-so-great 2009 season (LJ) or had injury issues (Parker). However, Mawae had a solid season last year and given the needs of our line, he could be a solid stop gap. I would go out on a limb and say that he is a better lineman than Hicks.

This team puzzles me when it comes to the offensive line. Don't get me wrong, it's great that they got T. Williams, and hell you could say Capers is nice future depth. But, I see things like this and wonder if the coaches are putting too much trust in the returning linemen. I guess the only thing I imagine as to why Mawae hasn't been picked up is maybe because he doesn't fit MS' locking scheme?

Re: 2010 NFL Off-Season Rumors and Reports (Week 8)
 

my point is if we are going to ignore the age issue with the RB's, why not get a guy who has PROVEN that he plays at a pro bowl level at the age of 37/38? It seems like a no brainer to me.

yeah i hear you but like i said i am giving our front office a little bit more credit than past years, if both shanny's think that what we have is solid, or they just think he wouldn't fit, or if they are in works with him for a deal right now, i'm gonna trust their judgement...for now

Really? You're gonna whine about passing up Bruce Campbell? And signing one blocking TE?

Re: 2010 NFL Off-Season Rumors and Reports (Week 8)
 

Galloway is a harmless signing. Veteran, locker room leader with experience. Doubt he even makes it past pre-season.

Re: 2010 NFL Off-Season Rumors and Reports (Week 8)
 

You notice all the ties to Bruce Allen. And very few players with ties to MS. I don't know that it means anything, but seems like Shanny is letting Bruce go get "his" guys, at least to fill camp bodies. Does Galloway bring anything to the table in terms of "guidance" for Kelly and/or Devin?

Exactly! I have no problem with any of this. Competition at EVERY position...excellent idea. Devin and some others are definately going to give what they have. If not.....
AND if the Galloways of this season don't make the squad......???? What's the problem? If Galloway does...good guidance for the young guys.

If you get upset that someone gets skipped in the 4th that you wanted and can only see them picking a single player, you're always going to be upset.

I don't know how well he cuts but he's from a ZBS and can get upfield quite well. There's a vid of a Chris Johnson run where Mawae and another lineman are still trucking 30 yards past the line of scrimmage. I know that you can't base everything on one play, but it just shows that he's got the motor still.

LOL. I said it once I'll say it again. I totally believe the Skins are manipulating the fan base's feelings so when they do sign T.O. the majority of the fan base will be happy.

Rumor was the skins were in talks with T.O.
That rumor got shot down.
Then McNabb endorsed picking up T.O.
That rumor was shot down.
Now Joey Galloway is signed.
Half the fans would prefer T.O.

Pretty soon the rumor will be Skins in talks with T.O. and everyone will be singing a different toon. ;)

Re: 2010 NFL Off-Season Rumors and Reports (Week 8)

It all depends on if it benifits him. If the jersey will sell and make him money I think he's do it no matter what.

No honestly I don't sit here with the mind set that the team is thinking... "hay I wonder if the fans would be on board with this signing." But I do think the fan base had some play in Fassel not getting signed. As much as I didn't like Fassel I can't imagine he wouldn't have been as good or better then Zorn who had no HCing experience. Maybe not since he most likely would not be able to pick up his own coaching staff.

I'm mostly joking about the team trying to build support for T.O. It sounds good. :)
