I am sad to see him go but no way does he fit a 3-4.

Eagles switching to a 3-4? What are you going to do with DeMeco Ryans?
Don't question the Dream Team.

No idea. I guess they are going to cross their fingers and hope his problems in Houston were due to recovering from injury and not him needing to be in a 4-3. Ryans is one of many reasons that I think this switch is a big mistake.

Hahaha it's amazing that every comment I've read about cutting Jenkins have been people saying to bring him back to Green Bay. It's always great when a fanbase is on the same page.
I would have loved to have him this past season when Cushing went down. I don't know how bad he really is in pass coverage since in Wade's scheme it only calls for one ILB on passing downs and Cushing is just a beast in pass coverage so Ryans never got much of a chance.

Raiders will try to cut down Palmer's salary:
PEDs?I need this back in my life
They aren't that good for you but if you insist I know a Sconi doctor that can hook you up.

Undersized AND slow?
That's a terrible combo.
edit: David Garrard ran a 4.83 40 for comparison. Holy crap.
That was fast enough to avoid our defense when it was good.
He seems like a good for for the Jets. We have slow LBs but they are not undersized so he does not fit our system,

I wonder if Dee Milliner's injury will keep him around long enough for the Dolphins to pick him up? I can't decide if I'd rather have him or a WR.
Yeah but Kubiak liked him:

If he drafts him I swear I will squicken faster than Freeman gets to Taco Bell for new menu items!

We aren't confirmed to switch to 3-4 and this move doesn't reflect that. This was to free up more money.
Honestly don't like this move. There is a lot we need to improve on Defense but Jenkins has been the one solid good pick up from that fa splurge from two off-seasons ago. DT becomes a need once again regardless of what system we run.
I really hope someone takes him before he gets to Detroit. If they had even mediocre play on the defensive line that team might win a game or two.

Matt Barkley met with the Bills and Jets. I like where this is going.

Haha, yes!
I want Patterson, ran a 4.42 and when he cuts it's almost like he doesn't slow down.

If Detroit doesn't take Millner I'll be shocked.
Jets taking another USC QB would be amazing.
Kiwi has restructured his contract to give the Giants 1 million in cap space:

I would trade Schaub to the Bills or Jets for their first if they are going to just throw it away

I believe so, yes. Though Cowboys came close to breaking that last season when they took Clairborne at 6 (they moved up for him, IIRC)
Who are the Lions fielding at CB at this point? (I'd have to look)
EDIT: Hold on, Woodson was selected 4th - don't the Lions pick 5th? Patrick Peterson was selected 5th by the Cardinals as well..

I'm with you, Patterson looks incredible from what I've seen.
Trash, but their DE situation is just as bad if not worse with KVB and Avril leaving.
If he gets past the Eagles. I can see the Eagles taking Millner if Joeckel isn't there and they haven't traded down.

Patterson sure would be nice, but he will be gone by the time the Rams pick rolls around and we have too many needs to be trading up for anyone. My bet is we take Tavon Austin in the second if he is still there and let Amendola walk

Eagles rumors from Jeff Mclane, Eagles beat writer:
Geno at 4? Jordan at 4? I don't know if either of those guys is worth it at 4. Now if we traded down, say with the Rams who have two first round picks, and took Jordan or Smith mid first round I wouldn't have a problem at all.

Jordan is having a helluva combine at the moment. Wouldn't be surprised to see him shoot up some boards....
He actually looks pretty quick in the first 10-20 yards, he doesn't have the top end speed. Better suited to a 3-4 than a 4-3. Don't think he could play cover 2 from the mlb position.

Wow, the Eagles cut Jenkins? Awesome!
Come home, Cullen!
Come home, Cullen!
He is basically a perfect 3-4 DE.

Les Snead reaffirmed his willingness to trade up this past week at the combine if the right person is there. I'm just skeptical it will happen with all of the Rams needs. Being: OT, OG, WR, TE, S, and LB. Also potentially RB if Jackson walks

Ran rather well in the 40. He clocked in at 4.69 and 4.67, which was the 9th best time for LBs.

He's interested until he crosses the 20 and basically reaches his top speed. Amazingly "real" moment captured there.:jnc

I hope you do too, man. Keep us posted.
