Commissioner Goodell Hints at Multi-City Draft

April 26, 2010

The ratings for the Thursday night opening day had come in and proved that the prime time real estate paid off well. The first round of the draft beat perennially top rated network shows Private Practice and The Office, and pulled in more than twice as many viewers as the Lakers-Thunder playoff game. The NFL [...]

Redskins QB Jason Campbell traded to Raiders

April 24, 2010

I love the activity today – 3 trades and another possibly coming soon. NFL Network’s Jason La Canfora, live from the draft, is reporting the Raiders are working with the Washington on a trade to acquire quarterback Jason Campbell. More to come. The trade has been announced – quarterback Jason Campbell was acquired by the [...]

Leon Washington traded to Seahawks

April 24, 2010

In the third trade of the day, the Seattle Seahawks have acquired running back Leon Washington from the Jets for their fifth-round draft choice (no. 140) and the Jets seventh-round pick, the NFL Network is reporting. The Jets used the pick to take running back John Conner. Looks like the Seahawks have completely transformed their [...]

Saints 2 (64): OT Charles Brown

April 23, 2010

Closing out the second-round, the Saints go offensive line and draft tackle Charles Brown from USC. Brown’s a bit of a project, very raw and developmental. I don’t envision Brown getting much, if any, playing time his first couple of seasons. He’s more than likely being groomed as the future at LT for the Super [...]

Colts 2 (63): LB Pat Angerer

April 23, 2010

And the Colts keep attacking holes in their defense by selecting LB Pat Angerer out of Iowa. At 6’0″, 235, he’s not as big as you would want, but he plays big. His competitive nature carries him further than his size should allow. To be successful with the Colts they are going to have to [...]

Patriots 2 (62): LB Brandon Spikes

April 23, 2010

Patriots seem to be fixated at defense. They’ve just selected linebacker Brandon Spikes from Florida. Adding to his pass rush on 3rd down, Spikes will be just another cog in Belichick’s defensive personnel. Spikes is a effective as blitzer, but has some issues taking blocks one-on-one. I’m sure Belly will make something good of him, [...]

Jets 2 (61): OT Vlad Ducasse

April 23, 2010

The Jets pick Vlad Ducasse, OT out of Massachusetts. He’s a big kid with some versatility. That’s what you do when you invest in a QB like Mark Sanchez. You build him a line so he can do his job. Jets making a really smart pick here.
