Early Warning: Can Daquan Bowers avoid being a bust?
It happens every year during the NFL Draft. We hear about can’t miss prospects and how they will dominate the league from day one when they step on the field. Of course, you then are faced with the reality that players like Jamarcus Russell, Ryan Leaf, and Kijana Carter are part of a process that can’t fully predict work ethic, character, or injury potential. The funny...

Should the Browns Pursue A.J. Hawk and Vernon Gholston?
Talking about Ohio State Buckeyes as they relate to the Browns is a really funny thing. It is one of those topics that I generally avoid at all costs. There are some fans that just can’t see past their scarlet glasses enough to realize that the Browns wouldn’t be a good football team with nothing but Buckeyes on the roster. This is especially obnoxious at draft...

Jet Favre!
In the 1991 NFL Draft, the Jets planned to select quarterback Brett Favre with the 34th pick. Instead the Atlanta Falcons took the Mississippi native one pick earlier. The Jets drafted Browning Nagle who played only 18 games in 3 seasons in a disappointing tenure with the team. However, now, 17 years later, the Jets have acquired Favre in one of their most stunning trades in team...

Favre trade looks good, but...
There are many reasons Jets fans should be excited about the Brett Favre trade:
1. They no longer have to watch a QB with a Johnny Damon lollipop for an arm. Sorry, Chad. You played hard and were an accurate passer and all, but even at age-38 Brett can put more mustard on the ball than you could in a game of Madden.
2. The Giants might never precede the Jets on SportsCenter...
