Haven't the Pats loaded up on WR's this offseason? I thought they signed Brandon Lloyd and someone else of significance? Ocho was hardly seeing the field last year with what they had.

I knew there was someone else. They also grabbed Jabar Gaffney along with Gonzales & Lloyd. Ocho's screwed.

Branch isn't a lock my any means. Personally i think Gaffeny is a better WR than Branch.

I hope chad, stallworth, and gonzales get the axe

well just given his relationship w brady and the chemistry...his knowledge of the playbook i think he has a great chance for another year. he played well last year and showed good speed i thought, but your right he probably isnt a lock. they have let him go before.



i dont think gonzo has a snowballs chance at making this roster, chad probably doesnt either.

gonzo is too much of a health risk, chad is afraid to go over the middle and doesn't have the break away speed for the outside, and branch is 5in shorter than Gaffney. No reason to have 3 sub 5'10 WRs (branch, welker, edleman). Cut gonzo, chad, and branch and move on.

Per Schefter...

Stat of the month: Jets HC Rex Ryan has lost 90 - 90! - pounds this off-season. Props.

Good for him!

Schefter made it sound like he earned it. More like the Bill Belichick Diet (cheater).

Pete Prisco's Top 100 NFL players (also posted on the Browns thread). Who is too high, too low, doesn't belong on the list?

Agreed...

Also I'd have Farve over Bradshaw.

Tyron Smith at #38? I'm a Cowboys fan, but was he that good? I can understand for the "future," but after the past year I'm not sure.

Yeah I agree with you... also I kinda went lol when I saw Gronk was at #10. I also thought the same when I saw Ware at #3 while is he great I would have him probably in the 7-10 range.

Im with Raw Dawg though overall its a pretty terrible list.

It might as well just say "top 100 in no particular order"

Apparently Young has had these "issues" for awhile. He went after a coach in college...

I wish they would tie that type of money on a RB, but I don't blame them with their stance.
