Watch out NFC North, Cassel will throw for 5000 yards now that he's on the Li- I mean Vikings.

Can't wait to hear NFLPA PLAYER SAFETY clowns bitch and moan about having to wear those leg pads.
You're my favorite Greg. AZ Greg cannot compare.
Never forget
This after he had just thrown a interception on a screen pass... very tough to do.
I'd be up for it if we can get the Jets fans to renact the Jets draft video.
Combine next year!

But the draft is free and the combine will cost money starting next year. I used to love going to the draft so much. It really is a fun experience.
And with that so is the Mallett to Browns trade in April.
Just to clarify, since some Tweets weren't clear
--Player safety: Offensive players will not be allowed to block low when going toward their own end lines in the tackle box. Cant go low when peeling back anywhere on the field.
--Player safety: Initiating contact with the crown of the helmet is a foul if the runner or tackler delivers a forceable blow against his opponent when both players are outside the tackle box.

Don't you have to get there super early to get in? We were going to go when I was living in Boston but it seemed like a giant pain in the ass.
I'd rather just pay $10 and know I am in.
The Schwartz Retard rule has been eliminated as well.

Okay, Osi was drafted back in 2003. I guess that either the Giants have changed the philosophy towards DEs since then, or maybe DEs in general have gotten bigger in the last 10 years. Not sure what to tell you, but I never heard a single report that had the Eagles interested in JPP, or the Giants interested in Graham.

yeah they give out passes super early, like 7:00 am to people on a first come first serve basis.

I only remember the Titans being super pissed the Giants grabbed JPP. They were apparently all in on him and wanted him badly. They had to settle for Derrick Morgan with the pick right after....
I doubt we get Talib. I think the CB we'll end up with is Captain Munnerlyn. Realy hoping Davis does join though.

Yeah I remeber that to. He has had the same type of problems that Graham had, an injury in his rookie year and then trouble recovering from it. He had a solid season last year though.
Wrong account, dude

LOL, Beast Heavy and Kas all same like each others alts.
I'm not sure how the finances of Suh will work in the future but I am worried about Suh being a Lion for life (because of money only, not because of the city/organization).
When he becomes a UFA in 2014 he will probably command one of the highest contracts for any defensive player in NFL history, and unlike an Albert Haynesworth he actually has work ethic. We have him for at least the next two seasons so I'm going to enjoy the ride while it lasts.
It's certainty a great time to be a Lions fan. We also have the #5, #36 and #65 picks in the draft to build some depth at certain positions.

The Giants were definitely looking at Graham, and we were more stable in the left end than the right end position (you can go undersized for the right end where Osi plays). I think they also wanted McDougle the year we got William Joseph, but Philly beat them to the punch (both ended up sucking horribly though).
You also had Mathias Kiwianuka drafted at 262 lbs.
Remember, all this talk is smokescreen. We never truly know what happens.
Well its hard to recognize you with all packer dicks in your mouth. Keep sucking and some day they might just let you swallow.
Yeah, I'm all for the elements having an effect on the game, but get the damn fields right.

Cassell to Vikings to compete for a starting job:
Besides being fat and underperforming don't Suh and Haynesworth also have one other habit/feature in common?
LOL wtf? Cassel v Ponder? What a boring ass competition. And who does the winner throw the ball to? Just earns the honor to hand off the ball to AP?
I get that the Vikings are trying to build the smart way though the draft but they won't go anywhere until they get an actual QB.
They are just biding their time until the Packers cut Rodgers

Suh is one of the most delusional people I've witnessed in awhile; he'd fit in better on the Detroit City Council than the Lions. Everything he says and does within the media feels planned and choreographed, and when he's thrown off (ie the stomp incident) he doesn't know how to respond. After that Thanksgiving game he seemed genuinely upset the Detroit media wasn't supporting him, and quickly moved them onto his shit list; he also stopped doing a weekly radio interview due to being asked tough questions on it. When things don't go as planned his true self comes out.
I'm glad he reconstructed his contract but can't help but think this is just him auditioning for his next team/city; there's no way he re-signs with Detroit. I wish we'd just trade him for picks. I'm convinced he'll have a huge year this season but it'll simply be for show/FA.

Beat EviLore at pool.
Ponder got this in the bag.
The difference between Matt Cassell and Matthew Stafford in a nice 2:12 video.

The mooted Mallett trade was for a second rounder + a later pick. Problem is we don't have a second rounder at the moment - we'd only get one via a trade down. Hence why the trade could only have happened in April.

With New England? Would be nice to have a real kick returner.
