Jeremy Shockey leaves behind 37 receptions, 455 yards, and 4 TDs. If Olsen can manage to gather up half of that goodness, we are looking at 64 rec, 725 yards, and 7 TDs. Easily top 10 numbers that can be had in the late rounds of your draft. It’s not a question of talent with Olsen. Greg Olsen has been a talented, yet under utilized TE since he left the U.

Cam Newton Tosses Up The Bunny Ears

Via Juan Elway  |  September 01, 2012
I’m always down for some fun Juan… Cam Newton brings fun and enthusiasm to the No. Fun. League. Some will say he’s immature, but I think he’s just a big kid running around playing a kids game.
