Off-Season Run Down: Part 1 (Bengals)

Mon, 23 Jun 2008 17:15:05 -0500

The Bengals have certainly been in the news often this off-season for a number of reasons. Both Chad Johnson and T.J. Houshmandzadeh have expressed their displeasure over their current contracts and at one point it looked as if both were going to skip the team's mini-camp. The team also released oft-troubled WR Chris Henry and LB Odell Thurman - call it addition by subtraction - but both are gifted players who were looked to help the team contend again this coming season. Cincinnati faile...

Fbkid's AFC North draft grades

Sun, 04 May 2008 11:42:50 -0500

The draft is now over so it is time to grade the teams to see how they did in the draft. I will be grading the teams and doing them by division. The first installment is the AFC North which is one of the toughest divisions in football. All of these teams have had great success building through the draft so it should be interesting to see who gets the best grade. Baltimore Ravens: The Ravens should be happy with their draft as they traded down and got the guy they wanted in Joe Flacco. The...

Kansas Loses 3: Talib, Collins, & Coach Beck

Tue, 08 Jan 2008 15:05:30 -0500

I can't say that anyone is surprised to see these three move on from Kansas as the rumors and speculations have been floating around for a while now. Coach Tim Beck, one of the best recruiters for Kansas, has decided to become the running backs coach in Nebraska--Let's hope with this past season the recruits will keep coming. Aqib Talib and Anthony Collins apparently made a pact to either stay at Kansas together or play with the big boys. With Talib being currently forecasted as a second round draft pick (and possibly first round) he couldn't resist seizing the opportunity. So Collins, will follow.
