I'm no All 22 expert but those names seem to be inline with everything I've read/heard all year.

Re: NFL Off Topic

Didn't he just come back?

He was only allowed to come back while the appeal was in process. This wasn't a newly(as in just these past couple of weeks) failed/missed test. This was expected.

He was always a huge risk, so not surprised.

Re: NFL Off Topic

I honestly didn't watch many Bills games but I just have a difficult time understanding why they don't want him.

I don't think they want him at the price point that his contract would command BUT this sounds like a total break so yeah....I've said before that the weaknesses in his game became much more magnified this year though it's not all his doing as the WR corps which isn't the greatest already was pretty much stripped away for a good part of the season. I don't necessarily have a problem with the Bills turning the page on him but it's the WAY they did it that seems pretty shameful IMO.

I wish him luck wherever he goes.

Looks like that MVP is all but official for Matt Ryan.

Re: NFL Off Topic

I find it kind of interesting that the AP recognizes EDGE players to include 4-3 DEs and 3-4 OLBs in the same category, then they put Von Miller in at LB.

Me thinks someone has been having a little fun with Ray Horton's wiki page..

On January 18, 2013, Horton was hired as the defensive coordinator of the Cleveland Browns.[14] On January 18, 2014, Horton agreed to become the defensive coordinator of the Tennessee Titans.[15] Browns coach Hue Jackson hired Ray Horton to be the Browns defensive coordinator going into the 2016 season.

He is the worst defensive coordinator in the history of the NFL.

Re: NFL Off Topic

I love it when fans do that, lol

Re: NFL Off Topic

I think doing this demonstrates the NFL's commitment to that market, while they probably don't expect to return to Oakland and a large number of fans will go to Vegas for games as they do now to Oakland now.

Unfortunately, I must admit you're probably right.

Man, it sucks, because I want so bad to be like 'yeah, I'll atop watching, just care about college ball, blah, blah, blah', but I know I'm too emotionally invested to stick to that :/

I think I get my fair share of criticism for this, but I think all pro selections are the single most important criteria for judging the good or great players.

Sucks that a former Raven beat out a current Raven at LG though.

A current Raven who was playing on the opposite side with a bad shoulder. For what it's worth, PFF had Yanda over Osemele, with Osemele as 2nd team.

The line could've been so damn good with Stanley/Osemele on the left, and Yanda/Wagner on the right. Can't keep 'em all though.

Normally when we part ways with a key player I shrug it off. But not with Osemele though. I felt like they should have tried harder to keep him.

I wish they could've kept both, but I don't think that was ever realistic with KO due for a big payday, and Yanda needing to get locked up too.
