Going to be a long off-season, hopefully an interesting one though.

There will be no Bengals arrests, mark my words


I'm burned out on the NFL and all it's BS. Time for baseball and all of MLB's BS for a while

would be awesome if the 49ers get Mike Wallace we need a solid #2.

rather not have Harvin. He's just as much of a game changer, but I think LaMichael can handle the kickoffs. I've been done with cocky WRs after having the diva-to-end-all-divas sabotage the team from the inside out.

Figured the Chiefs would do something. I wonder if Flynn in Seattle will be next?


Anyways, the Bengals have two 2nd round picks (thank you Raiders). I'm terrified they'll use one on either Teo or Mathieu if they drop that far

Have we given up on Manningham as the 2? Or is he more a 3?

if they draft the Honey Badger, Yummy will go crazy.

He didn't stay healthy in NY and hasn't been healthy here, though arguably his injury was partially Kaep's fault. IMO it'd be better to have a field stretching WR to complement Crabtree's shiftiness. Manningham's fine, but we could do better.

Also worried about AJ Jenkins. He says he'll work on improving but we'll see. Hope he's not another Rashaun Woods...

in other news, mock drafts have the Raiders selecting the player with the fastest 40 yard dash in the 1st round.

Nah I think those days are over. That was Al Davis' thing. With the new GM calling the shots they might actually make an intelligent pick this time around. But who knows, tis the Raiders.

I think Bowe now stays in KC. I wasn't crazy about him for the Fins.

Speaking of Honey Badger I heard he hit 225 4x

No doubt they'll do it if he falls far enough. Sometimes these guys work out for us. Vontaze Burfict last year for example (undrafted FA).

I say Teo because we did the same with Rey Maualuga. Dropped to the second round and we couldn't have called his name fast enough. Really hope they don't re-sign him

Unless you play in the trenches, the bench press drill is a pretty big waste of time. Heck, for a DB I'd rather have a low number like Mathieu's. Too much bulk decreases speed and agility

I get that and I'm not a believer in some of the combine workout warrior hype. But come on dude 4x??? HS players bench that. You need some strength at RB.

Speaking of T'eo I hear his combine numbers sucked too and he's smaller than thought. Maybe he drops to the 2nd?

Oh and what's up with the Cowboys. Restructured Ware, Austin, and Witten. What kind of moves are they going to make?

Falcons cut Robinson, Turner, and Abraham


I really hope the Bengals don't let Michael Robinson walk. Guy could be a beast on the D line. I don't think they will.

Randy Moss won't be back in SF...

Don't think anywhere should care Even if he is the greatest receiver of all time.

I'm in the Rice camp but I've heard of some creative wording no how no team "prepared" for a player more than Moss to argue his greatness. Plus they argued how Moss outside of Brady always average QB's while Rice had Montana, Young, and Gannon in MVP caliber.

Seahawks trade for Harvin seriously... anyone but them. They gave up a late 1st + 7th rounder

49ers trade for Boldin I think the front office wasn't willing to shell out that much for Harvin... which is good. I just hope the Harvin trade doesn't pay off for the Seacocks.
