The National Football League

Since the TCY and FOF parts are separated now, I don't really need this logo thing to show when the post is for the pros, but I liked it, so I thought I'd put it in here just for the hell of it.

NFL: 2010 Draft Review

10	Vikings	Inigo Montoya	RB	Oregon State	5.8
122	Patriots	Larry McGill	ILB	Tennessee	4.8
138	Vikings	Daniel Ertmann	QB	Nebraska	7.0
FA	None	Charlie Swaggs	ILB	South Carolina	4.3

Montoya going #10 was a shocker, but 3 of the first 7 were RBs, so as often occurs, teams started panicking and both #10 and #12 were also RBs.

McGill was about as advertised, going late 4th round, but Ertmann in the 5th round was a surprise, as I had him going in the late 1st. However, the first QB taken was not until late 2nd, and Daniel was the next one, at #138.

Swaggs not being drafted was not a total surprise, as his combine showing was very poor.

[thealmighty]

Former FOFC Star Traded

Former Penn State star Godzilla Blitz was traded during the draft in a silly and shocking move by the Oakland Raiders.

Oakland sent their starting MLB, who won the NFL's Defensive Rookie of the Year award, registering 104 tackles, to the New York Jets in exchange for the 1st pick in the 2nd round. That happens to be the pick the Raiders used in the 2009 draft to select Blitz.

The Raiders new player has worse ratings than Blitz, but the future will tell the wisdom of the move.

[thealmighty]

Ex Tennessee Star a Boom

Former Volunteer linebacker Larry McGill came to the New England Patriots as a late 4th round pick. The Pats were expecting a decent player with ratings of 25/56. What they got was a whole other story, much to their surprise- and delight.

McGill reported into Patriot training camp with ratings of 40/78, and is now the heir aparent to longtime NFL star Ray Lewis. Lewis is in his last year of the 2 year deal he signed with New England before the 2009 season.

McGill can expect to play a good bit, at least, as Lewis missed 6 games last year due to injuries.

[thealmighty]

South Carolina Star Signs

South Carolina's all-time best defensive player, Charlie Swaggs, signed a FA contract with the Arizona Cardinals in the 2nd free agent signing period. The linebacker was signed as the back-up to the Cards 1st round pick at #16, Josh Winters from Oklahoma.

12 year veteran Orlando Ruff was signed as a mentor for this rookie duo (if the computer will leave him on the team). Arizona is hopeful that Ruff will help the youngsters blossom.

[larrymcg421]

Woohoo. I love it. Now as long as I can get rid of the injury bug that plagued me in college, should be a good career.

[thealmighty]

Post Training Camp Ratings:

The FOFC contingent of 6 in the NFL came out of training camp as follows:

• Tang Le Wood, QB, Kansas City: 17/56, change of +4/0 from before
• Godzilla Blitz, MLB, New York J: 46/60, change of +4/0 from before
  
• Charlie Swaggs, MLB, Arizona: 19/44, change of +1/-7 from before
  
• Daniel Ertmann, QB, Minnesota: 17/74, change of +3/0 from before
  
• Larry McGill, MLB, New England: 44/76, change of +4/-2 from before
  
• Inigo Montoya, RB, Minnesota: 46/57, change of +2/0 from before
  

Individual season outlooks and post training camp ratings to come.

[thealmighty]

Player Page: Le Wood

	Tang " Frenchie" Le Wood			#16	3rd String QB		Kansas City Chiefs
	2nd Year			Height	6'3"		Contract	3 years
				Weight	217		Dollars	$8,020,000
	Current	17
	Future	56		Popular	48		Leadership		6

PROJECTION: #3 QB

Tang is not in too bad a spot, as neither of KCs other QBs is very good now, nor do they have much in the way of Future. If he progresses as he should, Le Wood could be a starter, if not a star, here. The other QBs on the Chiefs team are:

1. 4 Years- 29/39
2. Rookie- 28/53

[thealmighty]

Player Page: Blitz

	Godzilla Blitz			#90	2nd String MLB		New York Jets
	2nd Year			Height	6'2"		Contract	2 years
				Weight	238		Dollars	$2,620,000
	Current	46
	Future	60		Popular	77		Leadership		53

PROJECTION: #2 MLB

Godzilla got screwed by the Raiders with this trade. He is now sitting behind 2 time Defensive Player of the Year Kendrell Bell, who has 3 more years worth about $40 million. The other MLBs on the Jets team are:

1. 10 Years- 70/70
2. Rookie- 10/35

[thealmighty]

Player Page: Swaggs

	Charlie "Swagger" Swaggs			#50	2nd String MLB		Arizona Cardinals
	Rookie			Height	6'1"		Contract	2 years
				Weight	245		Dollars	$880,000
	Current	19
	Future	44		Popular	10		Leadership		11

PROJECTION: #2 MLB

Swaggs was picked-up as a back-up to 1st rounder Josh Winters. He has slid in ratings a bit already, but with some playing time, and his 74 volatility rating, there is always hope. The other MLBs on the Cardinals team are:

1. Rookie- 34/73
2. 12 Years- 12/13 (mentor)

[thealmighty]

Player Page: Montoya

	Inigo " Prepare to Die" Montoya			#47	2nd String RB		Minnesota Vikings
	Rookie			Height	6'2"		Contract	5 years
				Weight	231		Dollars	$22,790,000
	Current	46
	Future	57		Popular	27		Leadership		47

PROJECTION: #2 RB

Montoya is sitting there wondering why the Vikes took him at #10. They have Onterrio Smith under contract. He has led the league in rushing the last 2 years. At least Inigo has job security, with the ratings of the other 2- one of which may be cut before the regular season, one would think. The other RBs on the Viking team are:

1. 8 Years- 64/65
2. 3 Years- 27/31
3. Rookie- 21/31

[thealmighty]

Player Page: Ertmann

	Daniel " Eerrtmannn" Ertmann			#8	2nd String QB		Minnesota Vikings
	Rookie			Height	5'9"		Contract	3 years
				Weight	216		Dollars	$1,950,000
	Current	20
	Future	74		Popular	39		Leadership		7

PROJECTION: #2 QB

Minnesota needs a starter in a couple of years, so Daniel will have time to grow- let's hope not stagnate- behind the greatness that is Dante Culpepper. Dante has 2 more years on his deal, the 2nd of which is for a cool $22+ million. The other QBs on the Viking team are:

1. 11 Years- 85/85
2. Rookie- 13/26

[thealmighty]

Player Page: McGill

	Larry "McMauler" McGill			#99	2nd String MLB		New England Patriots
	Rookie			Height	6'3"		Contract	4 years
				Weight	245		Dollars	$3,590,000
	Current	45
	Future	76		Popular	29		Leadership		22

PROJECTION: #2 MLB

McGill is in a very good spot. Ray Lewis is in his last year under contract- and old as hell- so Larry is the obvious star of the future for the Patriot defense. In fact, don't be TOO surprised to see Larry starting by year's end. The other MLBs on the Patriot team are:

1. 15 Years- 53/53

SplitP,

Do you think you could use slightly lighter shades of green and purple for the Jets and Vikes? Thanks!

If I was SplitP, I might. But I'm not, so I don't know.

[weinstein7]

Hah, right. What can I tell you...an eNFL owner of a team in Texas.

I'm retarded.

Speaking of your eCowboys, I thought you might be interested to know that Glen Tucker is currently an unrestricted free-agent.

[thealmighty]

Right, we all look alike.

'My' eCowboys seem to have regressed considerably. I hope the new GM has a plan.

Check the green and purple. I tried to lighten them some. Did it help?
