He was the number six pick in the draft, and at 6-4, 264 pounds, he is being counted on as being a game changer...

Jets Finally Sign Victor Gholston

I hear he's not as freakishly athletic as Vernon Gholston, but he's certainly earned a freakishly-athletic contract. It's bad enough that the headline spells out Victor when the name Vernon appears in the accompanying text; it's bad twice over when our esteemed copy editor[slash]headline writer labels him Victor in the photo caption. I wonder if Victor has...

Gholston A Go

The New York Jets are all ready to go. The draft picks are signed and this is the squad we're going to whittle down into the surprise team of 2008. Unless the Jets bring in Brett Favre!

Now, I know what you're thinking That's Kerry Irons? I know, trust me. I had a hard time recognizing him too. I don't recognize Bengals when they're not in their county issued orange jumpsuits. It'...

Bengals Waive Kenny Irons

The Bengals have waived RB Kenny Irons, the team's second-round draft pick in 2007. Irons tore his ACL in preseason last year, and his rehab has been going slowly. He wasn't expected to play in 2008. If Irons clears waivers, the team will likely re-sign him and place him on injured reserve. The cut gets [...]

Prediction: Brett Will Be Jet

Here we go. The confirmation we've all been waiting for. This just out on ESPN and I'm predicting Brett Favre will be a New York Jet before the summer is over.

The Packers would...

Second round pick Brandon Flowers has now signed his contract. Agreeing to terms on a four year deal with the Chiefs.
