Last updated: May 2, 2009 1. St. Louis – QB Sam Bradford ~ Oklahoma = The Rams could go ahead and get their quarterback of the future with the first overall pick. Bradford might have been the top pick had he come out in 2009, so it’s pretty much safe to say he’s the frontrunner […]

But after starting a couple games in ’08 for Steelers’ injured quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, a small portion of optimism was served up to myself and other football fans. ESPN recently announced that the Tampa […]
As you all probably already know, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have given their new, shiny tight end, Kellen Winslow, a gigantic contract extension (6-year, $36.1 million). The funny thing is, the man hasn’t played a down with Tampa, yet. Oh well. Let’s take a look at how Winslow’s deal stacks up against other tight ends: […]
