2010 NFL Combine: QBs, WRs, RBs, Weigh In: Who Measured Up?
Posted: 26th February 2010 by Daniel Wolf in NFL
The weigh-in for quarterbacks, running backs and wide receivers has finished at the NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis.
Measureables for these skill positions are very important because coaches and scouts want to know if a receiver is tall enough, or a quarterback has enough bulk on his frame to take a pounding when getting sacked by NFL lineman, or if a running back is solid rock and can take the punishment ...
2010 NFL Combine: Troy’s Levi Brown Can Shine With Many QBs Not Throwing
Posted: 26th February 2010 by Daniel Wolf in NFL
With the "strategy" that is involved with many quarterbacks skipping the throwing aspect of the NFL Scouting Combine to throw at their respective Pro Day, it gives the more unknown quarterbacks a better chance to showcase their arm in Indianapolis and Troy's Levi Brown may be one of those benefactors.
Brown played in the Sun Belt Conference, which is one of the smaller college markets, but his skill set propelled him ...
2010 NFL Draft: C.J. Spiller May Put the 49ers Over the Top in the NFC West
Posted: 24th February 2010 by Daniel Wolf in NFL
The last position the San Francisco 49ers need to worry about is running back, since they have Frank Gore and selected Glen Coffee in the 2009 NFL Draft.
However, adding an explosive player like CJ Spiller to the offense is a chance that will be very hard to pass up.
Currently, every other mock draft online has the 49ers picking Spiller with one of their two first round picks.
With current running backs ...

Posted: 18th February 2010 by Daniel Wolf in NFL
A well known fact about the Cleveland Browns is that they need major help in their defensive secondary.
So much help that both president Mike Holmgren and General Manager Tom Heckert have agreed there are only three quality players currently on the roster in cornerback Eric Wright, safety Abram Elam, and utility defender Mike Adams.
As of right now, it seems that 95 percent of all mock drafts online say the Browns ...

Farewell Jamal Lewis: Cleveland Browns Cut Diminishing Running Back
Posted: 17th February 2010 by Daniel Wolf in NFL
After a promising first year, an average second, and injury-riddled third, the Cleveland Browns have cut ties with former starter Jamal Lewis.
Lewis was a tremendous running back with the Baltimore Ravens, and in 2007 during his first season with the Browns. Don't let this article fool you into thinking this is a hateful piece directed at Lewis, but his skills are nowhere close to what they once were.
In 2009, ...
Cleveland Browns Coach Eric Mangini Reportedly “Not a Fan” of Brady Quinn, Huh?
Posted: 17th February 2010 by Daniel Wolf in NFL
It has been reported by foxsports.com reporter, John Czarnecki, that current Cleveland Browns head coach Eric Mangini "isn't a fan of Brady Quinn."
Really?!
So why would Mangini name Quinn as his starter for the 2009 season?
One might say that Czarnecki's statement could be true since Mangini benched Quinn after 10 quarters of play, but then Quinn was reinserted back into the starter position for Week 10 against the Baltimore Ravens ...

Posted: 17th February 2010 by Daniel Wolf in NFL
If there is one thing that is not certain in the 2010 NFL Draft is it what the Oakland Raiders and owner Al Davis will do when they're up to pick at No. 8 in the first round.
The 2009 NFL Draft caught everyone off guard when the Raiders selected wide receiver Darrius Heyward-Bey from Maryland at No. 7 and defensive back Michael Mitchell from Ohio in the second round ...
Josh Cribbs: Watch Out NFL, Browns Plan on Using Him Even More in 2010
Posted: 15th February 2010 by Daniel Wolf in NFL
Josh Cribbs of the Cleveland Browns gave fans something to really cheer for during a very difficult 2009 season that also saw the team turn it around at the end with a four-game winning streak.
You may have heard the phrase, "Pay the man," which is currently the cry to get the Browns to pay Cribbs the amount of money he really deserves as the team's most dangerous offensive weapon.
Whether Cribbs ...
