Telemundo219 Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Especially considering that this year's draft isn't looking too deep, IMO. (Well, maybe at RB, which might be a need if we let Dunn go.)Anyone have news on the Chiefs? I don't live nor ever did in Kansas City (I'm an East Coast guy).And yet you're a Chiefs fan? How'd that happen??? (Even though I have a friend who has never even been in the state of Missouri but he's a DIEHARD Chiefs fan.)LONG Story. College sports as we know them are just about dead. The lid is off on all the corruption that taints just about every major program and every decision that the schools or the NCAA make is only about money, money, and more money. We'll have three 16+ team super-conferences sooner rather than later, killing much of the regional flair and traditional rivalries that make college sports unique and showing the door to any school that doesn't bring money to the table in the process. Pretty soon the smaller schools are going to have to consider forming their own sanctioning body to keep the true spirit of college sports alive because the NCAA will only get worse in it's excess from here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jigga Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 So, the Vikes get a 6th Rd pick for the guy they drafted with the Raiders 1st Rd pick they got for Randy Moss who then traded him to the Cheaters for a 4th Rd pick...sweet. I think that shows just how much both the Vikings and Raiders kind of suck at this personnel thing. On January 16, 2013 at 3:49 PM, NJTank said: Btw this is old hat for Notre Dame.

tBBP Posted February 26, 2008 Author Share Posted February 26, 2008 Vikes trade Troy Williamson to the Jags. WHEW.http://www.twincities.com/ci_8360959?source=rss...you mean...the Vikings actually got SOMETHING for No wonder the dude can't catch. He's looking at everything BUT the ball.I was thinking the same thing when I saw that pic in that link to the newspaper article...then I saw the caption underneath it saying something along the lines of "Williamson catches the ball"...um...yeah right. And this is the guy the Blaguars traded for...a team with a crop of WR's with their own ball-catching issues. Wonderful.(By the way...off-kilter question: between Troy Williamson and Sidney Rice...is Minnesota now seeking a South Carolina pipeline of WR talent now???)In other news...here's a water-cooler conversation starter if there ever was one: word through the rumor mill is that Jerry Jones secretly covets Darren McFadden. To add to that, it really isn't much of a secret that the 'Boys are (allegedly) looking at adding Randy Moss to their WR corps. Hmm...let's look at that...a backfield with Marion Barber III (who makes ME hurt just watching him run) AND Darren McFadden, along with a receiving corps featuring T.O. AND Randy Moss? Kinda scary, you know...BUT, stacking up all those playmakers didn't help the Patriots in the one game where it really mattered (by the way, do any of you bELIeve in hisTYREE???), so, IF this half-fantasy was to come to fruition, that'd be one big-time topic of discussion.OH--and, in keeping with Bronco habit, Denver is looking at adding yet another D-lineman to their stable...this time, its big ol' Shaun Rogers. *Disclaimer: I am not an authoritative expert on stuff...I just do a lot of reading and research and keep in close connect with a bunch of people who are authoritative experts on stuff. || dribbble || Behance || Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drew22 Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 I doubt McFadden will fall all the way to Dallas. They only way they will get that high of a pick is trading Barber. Eagles/Heels/Dawgs/Falcons/Hawks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sguse1 Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 They got 2 first round picks,Jerry Jones is a Arkansas alum, and Miami or Atlanta could use as many picks as possible...Basically the reason this rumor is floating around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tBBP Posted February 27, 2008 Author Share Posted February 27, 2008 Ah yes...JJ is an Arkansas alum. Forgot all about that.Still...it'd be interesting to see exactly what, or if, Jones and the 'Boys would do to position themselves high enough to pick up McFadden. I ain't sure of Dallas' draft order in the first round, but if they wanted McFadden that bad, I don't see why they wouldn't package that other #1 with either some more later picks or another player(s), or both, to get him.BUT...I ain't Mel Kiper, Jr., so I ain't gon say nathin' else bout this here, except that it'd be rather interesting if this rumor ever became more than that. *Disclaimer: I am not an authoritative expert on stuff...I just do a lot of reading and research and keep in close connect with a bunch of people who are authoritative experts on stuff. || dribbble || Behance || Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not just give him to Denver? Detroit is lucky if they actually draft a good player in the first round. They never find talent in the late rounds, so they might as well give him away.

The South Carolina thing is a coincidence. I was actually excited when they drafted Rice.

BCBoy Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 Adam Schefter is reporting that The Cowboys are considering a trade that would send Marion Barber III and undisclosed draft pick or picks to the Dolphins for #1 overall where they would almost certainly select Darren McFadden.(KFFL)And Kearse is set to be released by the Eagles, and may return to Tennessee.

Telemundo219 Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 Chiefs News: Yeah, it looks like they'll be releasing four veterans to open cap space (yessssss!!!!!!!!). Just hope they used the money wisely.Article here:http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=3267558The Chiefs have told four players -- including cornerback Ty Law -- that they would be released, sources told The Kansas City Star on Wednesday.Law was a starter last season. Linebacker Kendrell Bell and defensive tackle James Reed are former starters, and tight end Jason Dunn was a key reserve. Law, Reed and Dunn are over 30; Bell will turn 30 in July.The moves come following the release of offensive tackle John Welbourn and wide receiver Eddie Kennison, who are both over 30 and had contracts for the 2008 season. College sports as we know them are just about dead. The lid is off on all the corruption that taints just about every major program and every decision that the schools or the NCAA make is only about money, money, and more money.
