2013 Fantasy Football Preview: Atlanta Falcons

How can you not like the Atlanta Falcons’ chances again in the NFC South? How can the Falcons not be worried about the fact they are on the cusp and continually fall short of getting back to the Super Bowl. How can the team that looks like it could be the “Greatest Show on Turf” in this day and age, misfire when it comes to the playoffs and now that it seems the Saints are...

Browns’ unexciting draft low on fun, but high on strategy

Sometimes punchlines are just too easy. The low-hanging fruit dangling mere inches from the blades of grass. The Browns traded two straight draft picks and you would have thought they’d done this as a part of their M.O. for decades and decades. “The Browns are on the clock… you know to trade another pick!” Hilarious. Yes, the Browns have traded in the draft in recent years...

Double-dealing: Rams move up, move down, and win the first round of the 2013 NFL Draft

Say this for Rams GM Les Snead, he is not afraid of the moment. You might even say he lives for it. Our young GM was a key part of the Falcons war room that went all-in for Julio Jones in 2011; he just made his first big bet on an offensive playmaker tonight.  The Rams just did exactly what they wanted to do in the first round.

Atlanta Falcons general manager Thomas Dimitroff has made it very clear that he is not happy with the 30th overall pick in the NFL Draft.

You may remember that in 2011 the Falcons moved up from 27th overall to 6th for the opportunity to...

Trading Up, Why It May Be Easier Than 2011

I thought it was crazy, but I think a lot of things are crazy. Could the Falcons really be considering another Julio Jones type trade only one draft removed from the actual Julio Jones trade. When Peter King first reported it my line of thinking was along the lines of, "Well, what he means is that they've probably have had some internal discussions about trading. I seriously...

The Patriots need talent at the wide receiver position, and Cordarrelle (pronounced “Core-dare-uhl”) Patterson might just be the most talented receiver in this year’s draft class.
