Posted: 12th June 2010 by Craig Santucci in NFL
Two years ago, two key players for the New York Giants had offseason knee surgeries.  Fred Robbins and Barry Cofield both went under the knife during the off season to repair torn up knee ligaments and to no surprise…they had terrible seasons. Thinking back upon the players' injuries, the press reported these surgeries as common place and as routine as drinking Gatorade on the sidelines; however, ...

John Henderson: Training Camp Body in Oakland or Run Stopper We Need?

Posted: 12th June 2010 by Raider Card Addict in NFL
Oakland, in an interesting pickup, brought in John Henderson, a 31 year old veteran who was let go from the Jaguars earlier this offseason. At first glance, this looks more like a simple pickup, give a cup of coffee and then release him in the crowd of players during the preseason. Oakland has had question marks on players like Donovin Darius, who was picked up in January but gone in the ...

The NFC East, or the NFC Beast as it is commonly referred to, has been regarded as the most talented division in the NFL in recent years.

Trent Green: A True Football Hero

Posted: 12th June 2010 by Jabber Head in NFL
Trent Green, is a man who to me is the epitome of an NFL star, and one who on and off the field made me stop and take note. His presence on the field was felt by those who played with and coached him, and his style off the field affected the communities he touched. Trent Green, although no longer with the NFL, should not be forgotten by ...

The Buffalo Bills left tackle situation is anything but certain at this point, and for the most part has been cause for concern this offseason. But upon further inspection, Jamon Meredith offers a slight glimmer of hope going into the 2010 season. With Demetrius Bell still sidelined, Meredith is taking the all of the first-team reps at left tackle in practices, and that may not be such a bad thing. In 2009, ...

Some are big and some are small for the position. Today, I'll be ranking the Top Five tight ends entering the 2010-11 NFL season. This list should seem reasonable to some. So without a further ado, ...
