http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2011/02/05/ravens-players-threatened-to-go-to-union-about-long-playoff-practices/ Like I said the coaching staff needs to start getting out in front of things or they will lose the team. They had someone run to the NFLPA during the mini camps. Now players were threatening to go again. You also have a divide between your QB and the OC. These are not good signs.

Sry, Blown away. My fat fingers screwed up.

The reason you rely more on drafting than FA's is because it is much more reliable. There is a reason why the Squeelers and Pats have won 50% and appeared in 70% of all the Super Bowls since the ravens won theirs. They have a method to sustained winning. It should be copied, tweaked, and perfected. If not the Ravens can be perennial also rans.

I totally agree.

We had 2 very good ones. They decided Flynn was the answer letting both get away.

I think you got that right.

Albert Haynesworth Charged With Simple Assault: Redskins Lineman To Surrender For Alleged Road Rage Incident

Interesting. In the first he has Nate Solder who I already found picked by someone else. To be honest seems a little high for a guy that needs some grooming. This franchise has not been good at grooming OL talent of late. In the 2nd he has Curtis Brown, CB, Texas. I like the raw numbers but can not find any film of him. With the way Texas played this yr that might be why. Maybe he is a steal in the 2nd. I don't care if he is not the ball hawk as long as he keeps it out of receivers hands.

You do understand the NFL doesn't make the ad money for the games. That goes to the TV networks. Now is Coor's pulls there sponsorship that is a different story.

This is the video they are talking about. He is shocked. You don't usually see someone who is totally speechless.

Oh I think that would happen but then the owners can start pulling back on salaries. There would be no floor.

NSFW

Then they can play but I think the league can start implementing changes. That part has me confused.

Also a center.

http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news?slug=jc-franchisetag020311 I didn't expect them to let that stand. This will be negotiated.

Because he can push the players off 60% onto say 55%. That is $10s of millions of dollars in savings.

Actually there is a refund policy. http://www.footballreportersonline.com/2010/11/30/read-nfl-lockout-ticket-refund-policy/ I look at tax sponsored stadiums. They need events to pay off the expense that was incurred in construction.

http://www.mockingthedraft.com/2011/1/22/1950851/results-on-community-mtd-mock-draft-and-info-on-the-next-one 1st Nate Solder | Offensive tackle | Colorado 2nd Leonard Hankerson, WR, Miami http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MeJmy-J0d_w I really like his run blocking. Not a super fast guy but he would stretch the field. I think he would be a steal in the 2nd.

http://www.draftinsider.net/blog/?p=4503 1st Julio Jones http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mdkKiphw4f4 I am not really seeing this pick. I do like Jones though. 2nd Jarvis Jenkins http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bV0wC2rXo-w&feature=related We need a pass rush in the middle. I am not seeing from him. I also am not liking what I see from that tape. Maybe just a bad game.
