Absolutely agree. And what bothers me is to hear the coaches (Jauron and Kugler) say he is playing well and have no problems with his play. Granted we dont know what they say to him in private, but assuming its the same, this only helps to reinforce in his mind that he is playing like he did last year, and provides him ammo at the end of the season when he complains about his pay again, pointing to how his coaches praised his performance.

Wow! #10 is the winner, hands down! (and I mean hands down on that second shot )

You'd think that with all the publicity Mort gets on this board, HE'd give us some exposure on ESPN, or at least a little shout out.

Perhaps the erotic play all starts when Trent puts his hands under the center............

Strange. This story would seem to suggest the opposite as far as Bell's reaction to johnson "taking" his job. http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=3566019

Just to clarify, unless Walker winds up starting in his normal RT spot, he wont be facing Jason Taylor. JT plays Left DE, Andre Carter is the Right DE in Washington's D.

Probably because the offer had Evans' name on it!

Excellent and informative write up Lori. The thing I immediately thought of when reading about the 'constant reminder that “you have to make decisions that you think are right, regardless of the consequences.” ' piece is Goodell's decision to destroy the tapes. Perhaps he knew it wasnt the right thing to do in terms of destroying evidence, knowing full well many would question those actions regardless of the punishment levied agaisnt the Pats. But he may have felt that destroying it would help to put this blemish on the league in the past and allow things to move forward. But if anything, I think it may have had the opposite effect.

Wow, its amazing about the eyes/lasik surgery, given his production. Just might make him that much better. And as far as his 40 time, I'm sure alot of teams are kicking themselves for not taking Anquan Boldin, and if I remember correctly his time was in the 4.7s as well. This kid seems really intriguing, thanks!

I have to admit I'm not all that familiar with Bowman, but reading these stories, and given his measurements (6'4, 220 4.47), why exactly is he falling and being projected to mid to late rds? Surely not from that freshman incident alone, is it?

Maybe Steve Fairchild gets to really open up the offense this time around.

Its a conspiracy! There were too many anti-Patriots* threads the past year and now they're all gone, just like the tapes!

Standing in some park somewhere, with pigeons standing on his head and shoulders.

1. Patrick Willis (MLB). 2. Antonio Pittman (RB). 3a. Josh Wilson (CB) 3b. Manny Ramirez (OG)

Ah, I wasnt looking at it from that angle, but more from the "who to blame" angle. Thanks!

This article is confusing, what does one thing have to do with the other? Modrak isnt involved as far as I know with the FA negotiations and the money they are ultimately payed. I always thought his area was more in the draft. So am I missing something as far as how the "terrible FA spending" correlates with Modrak being pushed out?

I think its a typo. I always remember him being listed at 260 - 265. I even remember some article, maybe in BB.bom, some time ago where he mentioned that range as his preferred weight. Something's not right with some of these weights.

And Melvin Fowler is now 310? What have they been feeding these guys?

Hmmm, I wonder if a can of paint would have had more yards last season?

Keith McCants. Supposedly the next Lawrence Taylor.

Initially I thought we gave up more than what we got in return, but I was just speaking with a coworker who's a big longtime Eagle fan and he said in his opinion we got a really good player in Walker. In fact he said he considered him their best D-lineman. So I'm feeling a little better about this trade.

Bingo!, That wouldnt make any sense at all! Personally, I'd like to see Willis 1st and Pittman in the 2nd. You're right though, there are some decent RBs to be had in the 2nd and maybe early 3rd rd we could get without giving away a thing.

Wow, imagine if his next demotion is to quality-control coach, his coaching career will have come full circle!

It is pretty messy here (I'm in downtown NYC). Its supposed to be like this all day (sleet, frozen rain mix). I would not recommend driving, especially as it gets darker. Leave it for tomorrow if you have to drive and the roads are cleaned up, or for a rescheduled flight.
