Turner Struggling To Find Suitors In Indy?

For Fans Of Grade A Beef
This post is for all you guys out there who want some Grade-A beef in the trenches; I present to you Demario Pressley. This former Wolpacker is built like a Mack truck at 6'3" 301lbs. I think he has the type of thick, squatly frame to nicely project to nose tackle in a 3-4...
LA Times Mock Draft Nails Charger Pick
Sam Farmer of the LA Times just posted his mock draft and I gotta say, he nailed the Chargers pick.

The Falcons....A possible trade partner on draft day?

Dominance In The AFC West A Product Of The Draft

Desperate Denver?

Mendenhall And Tomlinson Sound Good Together
At an NFL-ready 5'10" 225 lbs, Rashard Mendenhall is a very interesting running back prospect who could potentially be available at the end of round 1. Would the Chargers take Rashard if he was sitting there at pick 27. They would certainly have to consider it. The guy is...
