Brandon Marshall has signed his tender with the Broncos...

Original spot for him to go was Seattle, but general consensus that I've heard is that they aren't going to bite, and he doesn't want to go there either.

Patriot's fans are gasming at the thought of having a loaded receiver corps...

I think it would be interesting to bring him to Washington, Thrash and Kelly are still up-and-comers, but a boost to put on the other side with Santana Moss would be huge for Donovan. Considering the past between Shanahan and Marshall, though - it's unlikely. Who knows, though? Shanahan and Allen are insanely good at playing their cards close to their vests this offseason.

None of the above - Miami for a pair of 2nd rounders.

Yeah, didn't really see that one coming. Not -really- surprising, but still unexpected in my opinion.

Brandon Marshall becomes the highest paid WR in NFL history--and rightly so deserved. Three straight seasons with 100+ catches and he's just entering his prime.

I'm sure you're really damn excited Zat biggrin.gif

If I was a Dolphins fan, I would be super excited. They already have the run game, now they have a top-notch receiver to balance it out a bit? Damn! Can't wait to see the Dolphins in action this season.

NFL Headlines time!

Big Ben suspended for 6 games. The running game will have to carry that offense for a bit.

Mcnabb wants T.O. in DC? However, he seems to deny this.

The Draft starts tomorrow night. Draft Experts are calling it the deepest draft in years, expect some trades and excitement around the league.

Wow what is up with the Cowboys schedule? Third toughest schedule in the NFL! The Superbowl is in my hometown and I thought the NFL would punch Dallas' ticket.

To be fair the Schedule for every season is predetermined after the end of the regular season in terms of opponents.


16 Games in a season.


6 games Home and Away Games vs the division.


4 games-Then it follows the rotation of conference divisions. For example, The NFC East is facing NFC North this year, after which they'll face the NFC West the year after, and then the NFC South after that, and then the NFC North again. The home and away games are also predetermined from the last time the teams faced each other.


4 more games basically same as the above except with an afc division.


The last two games are determined by the teams standing in their division. Since the Cowboys won the NFC East, and are already playing the NFC North this year, they are playing the winners of the NFC West, and NFC South. Cardinals and Saints.


So no team is ever really screwed when it comes to who they play. And remember its the 3rd toughest schedule based on last year.

Wish I'd saved my mock draft - I've got the first 6 right so far. It'll probably fall apart right about now though. I think I went

CLE - E. Thomas, S
OAK - B. Campbell, OT
BUF - J. Clausen, QB
JAX - D. Morgan, DE
DEN - R. McClain, ILB
MIA - D. Williams, NT
SF - J. Haden, CB
SEA - C.J. Spiller, RB

Note: If it fell this way I would need a new pair of pants.

EDUT: Told you it'd fall apart at Cleveland.

EDUT the 2nd: Holy crap Oakland and Buffalo.

Brandon Graham. Hmm. Being a Penn State Fan I saw how good he is and he did dominate in the senior bowl. Hes got potential. Schefter predicted him as the Defensive ROY next ear. Time will tell, little upset about not getting thomas, but not much.

This draft has made me very confused, yet satisfied. Russell Okung and Earl Thomas? I can live with that. I still would've liked Clausen, but trading for Whitehurst made that impossible.
