Marshall's Been Shipped to Miami
Now that the Broncos have finally traded off Brandon Marshall, it's harder than ever to predict which way they will go in the 2010 NFL Draft.
Though the drafts is less than a week away, their is still no consensus on the Broncos selection at #11, some say Dez Bryant, some Rolando Mcclain, and even other's encourage the Broncos to reach for Maurice Pouncey.
Losing Marshall did ...
Dez Bryant, Other WRs, Unfairly Labeled Because of the WR Conspiracy Theory
Posted: 17th April 2010 by Erick Spalti in NFL
Wide receivers are collectively bring grouped as the problem position in the NFL. It all started a few years ago with Randy Moss and the Vikings. Before him there were a few headache wide receivers (Michael Irvin was a headache but he had a remedy, *sniff sniff*), but none so unanimously hated by so many people.
In each of the last few years we've seen current, former, and future ...
I have been an avid Broncos fan for over 15 years. I've worshiped the likes of Elway, Shanahan, Shannon Sharpe, Ed McCaffery, Terrell Davis, Rod Smith...the list could seriously go on and on (Yes, most of those were players in the '90s; I'm only 25, lol).
However, dealing with Josh McDaniels is getting a bit trying. I loved the beginning of the season last year for the Broncos with our 6-0 ...
NFL Trade: Santonio Holmes Traded to the New York Jets
Posted: 11th April 2010 by Erick Spalti in NFL
As of a few moments ago, Santonio Holmes became the newest member of the New York Jets.
The Steelers traded the former Super Bowl MVP for a fifth round pick in this year's draft.
Both Braylon Edwards and Holmes only have one year remaining on their contracts, so it'll be interesting to see how the Jets work re-signing one or both of them.Read more NFL news on BleacherReport.com
Over the next two weeks I will go through the 2010 NFL Draft and act as the GM for each NFL team in the first round.
The Rams are on the clock.
Marc Bulger was supposed to flawlessly fill in for Kurt Warner and continue to lead the Rams to glory. That scenario never played out as Warner went on to the Super Bowl with the Cardinals.
As the Lions and Jets saw ...

Posted: 26th March 2010 by Erick Spalti in NFL
Mcdaniel's has done a great job of bringing in veterans to fill depth gaps since he arrived in Denver. Though it will take a few drafts to get the players exactly for his system, Mcdaniels has done a good job of trying to keep the Broncos competitive now.
The Quinn trade brought in a player just as talented as Pike or Lefevour but at a lower round draft pick and not ...
A Letter From Donovan McNabb To Philadelphia Eagles Fans
Posted: 25th March 2010 by Erick Spalti in NFL
Dear Eagles Fans,
I would like to start this message by saying thank you. Thank you for all the times you booed at me for throwing bad passes when my O-Line couldn't block for me. Thank you for every time you wished they would trade me or cut me because I couldn't cut it. Thank you for making nearly every year of my career here in Philadelphia as horrible ...
Why the Denver Broncos Should Trade Their First Round Pick
Posted: 24th March 2010 by Erick Spalti in NFL
The Denver Broncos should of entered the draft with two first round draft selections. Since one of them was traded to select Alphonso Smith in the second round last year, we are left with the No. 11 overall selection in the 2010 NFL Draft.
Josh Mcdaniels has done an excellent job of finding veteran contributors via free-agency to temporarily fill holes in the roster. He got great play out of Brian ...
In a few weeks NFL teams have the tough decision of making their first round selections. They could make the right choice and find a key component of their team for years to come, or, they could select the next Mike Williams or Carlos Rodgers......(Well guess they could draft like the Lions in general).
the Rams hold the top pick in the draft and appear to be set on selecting a ...
