Brady Quinn traded to Denver

March 15th 2010 01:58
Brady Quinn has been traded to the Denver Broncos for a 6th round draft pick and fullback Peyton Hillis plus a conditional pick. The Cleveland Browns have given up on their quarterbacks from 2009 by releasing Derrick Anderson and trading Brady Quinn. Jake Delhomme and Seneca Wallace are the current Browns quarterbacks.

The Denver Broncos are not giving up much to take a chance on Brady Quinn who won’t push Kyle Orton for the starting job in 2010. Quinn will probably sit and learn the offense for the Broncos in 2010.

Sometimes a quarterback especially needs a change of scenery and will flourish with a new team ala Steve Young. Brady Quinn is no Steve Young but he may become a serviceable quarterback for the Broncos at a cheap price.


The Browns dumped a quarterback who may have been a distraction and who clearly didn’t work out when they traded Brady Quinn to the Broncos. Mike Holmgren is trying to turn the team around but needs a new coach of the Browns to do that.

LaDainian Tomlinson has signed a 2 year contract with the New York Jets to be in their running back rotation. His decision came down to the Jets and the Minnesota Vikings after the Chargers released him.

I am scratching my head at the Jets decision to sign LaDainian Tomlinson when they could have kept Thomas Jones for about the same amount of money. Maybe the felt Shonn Greene would respond better with Jones gone to Kansas City and LT in New York.

Tomlinson signing with the Jets gives him at least a decent shot at a Super Bowl Ring. Former Panther quarterback Jake Delhomme gave up a shot at a ring as a backup in New Orleans to possibly start for a shitty Cleveland Browns team. That shows the priority that some NFL players put on winning a Super Bowl.

I am not sure LaDainian Tomlinson signing with the New York Jets will help them much. He is a veteran of a team with a history of choking in big games. Being a native of Texas and playing pro ball in San Diego, LT will have to get used to living and playing in the cold conditions of New Jersey. I also am not sure how much LaDainian Tomlinson has left in his tank but time will tell.

Derek Anderson is no longer with the Browns. He just got the boot and it came after they obtained Seneca Wallace from the Seahawks. It was bound to happen and it seems like with Anderson, he pretty much trashed Cleveland fans then apologized. He felt like he was the step child nobody loved and Quinn was treated as the prodigal son. Personally, Anderson had one good year and then just couldn't get it going. Quinn, on the other hand, has not impressed me completely from watching him. If he got traded, it wouldn't bother me. If he stayed, then so be it. I'd rather they just get somebody and just win with that person.

Who is going to pick up Anderson? Don't know and don't care, he's not with Cleveland anymore and that's all there is to it. His best moment was 2007 but then again I could say that team peaked and that was it. Sorry 'bout his luck but oh well for Anderson.

Ben Roethlisberger is being investigated for an alleged sexual assault in Milledgeville, Georgia after an incident at a nightclub. Roethlisberger is already involved in a civil suite with a woman claiming he raped her in Lake Tahoe at an earlier date.

Now of course none of us know if Ben Roethlisberger is a serial rapist ala Dave Meggett, or a guy with a target on his back now due to the first lawsuit. The fact that Profootballtalk.com is reporting that Ben Roethlisberger has hired the same attorney that got Ray Lewis out of a murder charge, shows that criminal charges are likely in this case

Why do players skip the NFL Combine?

February 28th 2010 15:10
Top college football players often skip the NFL Combine, for various reasons. The NFL Scouting Combine is where college players get invited to come to Indianapolis to show off their skills to potential employers, NFL teams. They go through various drills and do bench pressing and run the 40 yard dash.

The reasons why some players skip the NFL Combine are simple. Some are injured and can’t do the drills. Some like quarterback Dan Lefevour of Central Michigan and Tim Tebow of Florida know they are not good enough to impress scouts. The quarterbacks who skipped all or part of the 2010 NFL Scouting Combine read like a who’s who of my top rankings of QB’s for the 2010 draft.

Players who need a good combine

February 27th 2010 02:12
The NFL Scouting Combine is a big job interview for college players trying to make it in pro football. Draft stock is very important as it determines where a player will be picked in the order of the NFL draft and this how much money he makes. I will now list 4 players who need a good NFL Combine to maintain their draft stock or improve it. The following players were highly thought of at some point but may have slipped under the NFL scouting radar so to speak.

Many top prospects skip the NFL Combine to do their own workouts for scouts. Sam Bradford, Jimmy Clausen, Dan Lefevour, Colt McCoy and Tim Tebow are not throwing at the 2010 NFL Combine. This is a virtual who’s who of my 2010 quarterback rankings for the NFL draft. Tim Tebow may not even play quarterback in the NFL

Brian Westbrook to be released

February 24th 2010 01:40
Brian Westbrook will be released by the Philadelphia Eagles and joins LaDainian Tomlinson in the unemployment line. Brian Westbrook has suffered several injury plagued seasons in a row and may have to retire.

There is not much market for an older running back with concussion and other injury issues. It is not clear if Westbrook even wants to play for a team other than the Eagles after spending his entire career in Philadelphia. I think that like L.T. Brian Westbrook will test the market to see if anyone is interested
