STEWART GETS SURGERY
Posted by Mike Florio on March 13, 2008, 8:05 p.m.
In a draft that has plenty of tailbacks, one of them has a question mark sprouting from his shoes.

According to Adam Schefter of NFL Network, Oregon running back Jonathan Strewart had surgery on Wednesday to repair a fracture in his foot.

As a result, Stewart will be out for four months, and will miss his Pro Day workout. The goal in having the surgery now was to ensure that Stewart would be ready for the start of training camp.

Stewart had the injury in February, when he ran the 40-yard dash in 4.45 seconds at the Scouting Combine. He also churned out a 36-inch vertical jump.

The situation has drawn comparisons to Vikings running back Adrian Peterson, whose broken collarbone arguably prompted a mini-slide to No. 7 in the 2007 draft. But most running backs don’t use their collarbones to, you know, run.

Really, how can anyone justify a first-day pick (which is now only rounds one and two) on a guy with a surgically-repaired foot?

Stewart was a first round lock, #3 rated RB. let his fall begin...

i feel sorry for Lions fans who have to deal with Matt Millen as a gm. im sure they can throw a football into the stands and hit someone who could do a better job than him.

I'd still take him #15. He'll be ready for camp and the kid is a load.

Now the Lions have released safety Kenoy Kennedy.

He sucks.

The Atlanta Falcons have reached an agreement in principle with the Oakland Raiders to trade cornerback DeAngelo Hall for the Raiders' second-round pick in the 2008 draft, pending the Raiders finalizing a contract with Hall, according to a source close to the Falcons.

Hall is close to agreeing to a contract with the Raiders that will pay him just below what Asante Samuel signed with the Eagles, according to the source. Samuel signed a six-year deal worth a reported $57 million, with $20 million guaranteed.

Hall is a former first-rounder taken with the eighth pick in the 2004 draft.


Is Atlanta really better off w/ a 2nd round pick instead of Hall?

Do the rest of the players still hate him? If so, I would say a 2nd rounder is better than Hall.

This must be a mistake...Oakland was only asking for Anthony Michael Hall...not DeAngelo.

Atlanta would be better off with something derived from picking their nose than having excrement like Meangelo on the team.

Sort of an interesting move: The Eagles signed DT Dan Klecko from the Colts where he also played as a short yardage FB. The Eagles plan on converting him to a full time FB. They should hit the trim down button come training camp to help him make the move.

I love Klecko - he just seems like a guy that would have fit in with any team in any era, including the 1860s Harvard Crimson. The Pats used him all over both sides of the ball and he was a fan favorite.

Steelers release Wilson
Thursday, March 20, 2008
Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
The Steelers have released veteran wide receiver Cedrick Wilson, the team announced Thursday morning.

Wilson, who was entering his eighth NFL season, was arrested Wednesday night for hitting his former girlfriend in a Pine restaurant, and was charged by police with simple assault, harrassment and disorderly conduct.

In January, the woman, Lindsey Paulat, 26, of Fawn, was involved in a lengthy armed standoff at Wilson's home, police said.

Wilson signed with the Steelers in March 2005 as an unrestricted free agent from the San Francisco 49ers. In three seasons with the Steelers Wilson caught 81 passes for 1,162 yards and two touchdowns.

Shame it took "chokin' a bitch" to get his ass gone, I would have thought horrendous play would have lead to the same result. Then again Kirschke's been around 5 years now.

We're turning into the damn Bengals, part 2.

The main reason I hate the Denver Donkeys is because of Mike Shanahan. I had never, ever liked that weasel-faced, beady-eyed twerp. Apparently someone died and made him king so he could fire the GM. Now he let perhaps the most popular player go (Elam) when I believe he was waiting around for them to make a good offer.

With Vick and Hall, as well as Petrino, gone, I may become a Falcons fan yet.

Sadly, it will be spun into he was released because of the legal problems, and not because he flat out sucked. That would mean they'd be admitting the screwed up in the first place in signing him.

The 49ers lose their 5th round pick and they have to swap 3rd round picks with the Bears.

I completely missed Elam signing with the Falcons until I read it in MMQB. Damn, that sucks.

I am pretty sure that role of fast #5 WR who should be a good KR guy but is always hurt and has yet to make a play in Black & Gold is already locked up by Willie Reid.

Things I noted were that only a 15-yard face mask penalty exists now, there's no more "was the receiver forced out of bounds" rule, and the hair rule wasn't passed...

• A direct snap from center that goes backward will now be treated as a fumble. Previously, it was ruled a false start.


I never did understand this one. If the snap starts the play, how can the rest of the team's lack of movement cause a false start?

The force out rule going away should be good. Although they should have considered changing it to 1 foot down if you're in contact with a defender. Now DB's will be able to drill people on the sidelines.

well here is my first, well second, mock draft

1. Miami – Jake Long, OT, Michigan
-I don’t believe it will be Dorsey, McFadden, or Ryan so it comes down to the two Long’s, Gholston the wild card. Chris Long is a fine player but Jake Long at LT fills a more premier need. Plus I’m buying the rumors that the Fins are negotiating with Jake

2. St. Louis – Chris Long, DE, Virginia
-Could be Dorsey here but Chris Long is the safe blue collar pick to fit the new Rams

3. Atlanta – Glen Dorsey, DT, LSU
-Certainly Matt Ryan makes a lot of sense but DT is an equally big need for the Falcons. Plus Dorsey likely carries a higher grade then Ryan on their board. Another factor is this a much deeper QB draft class then a thin DT class

4. Oakland – Vernon Gholston, DE, Ohio St.
-Really tough pick. I had changed my mind from Darren McFadden to Vernon Gholston and then changed back to McFadden, and now I’ve changed back to Gholston who flashed some serious speed in his own right and is rumored to be high on the Raiders draft board. When all is said and done I wouldn’t be surprised if Oakland took Sedrick Ellis

5. Kansas City – Sedrick Ellis, DT, USC
-The Chiefs really do need OL help and Branden Albert was in the mix all the way to the end but Sedrick Ellis offers the Chiefs better value at #5 overall and is going to be that force in the middle they looking for a while now

6. NY Jets – Darren McFadden, RB, Arkansas
-With McFadden and Ryan still on the board the Jets are sure to have calls to move up but I think they’ll drive too hard a bargain for a deal to happen. I don’t doubt the Jets have some interest in Ryan but I cant see them taking him over McFadden

7. New England – Leodis McKelvin, CB, Troy
-With Matt Ryan still on the board the Patriots could use him to trade down, but which team is going to want to trade up? Chicago? Carolina? No. I don’t see either team moving up for Ryan (maybe Clady). So what to do with a hot potato, the Pats bite the bullet and take the CB they prefer, and need

8. Baltimore – Matt Ryan, QB, Boston College
-I don’t see the Ravens moving up for Ryan but if he falls in their lap I don’t see them passing

9. Cincinnati – Derrick Harvey, DE, Florida
-Wanted to project a trade with Ryan Clady being the target but decided against doing that. For the Bengal’s it came down Rivers, Merlin, and Harvey with none of the three standing out

10. New Orleans - Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie, CB, Tennessee St.
-Rivers in the mix again but CB is a bigger need, DRC likely rated higher

11. Buffalo – Malcolm Kelly, WR, Oklahoma
-Had DRC not gone 10th to the Saints he would have made this a difficult decision for the Bills, it was a hard enough choosing which WR to take as Kelly may be slipping a bit while Michigan State’s Devon Thomas is rising

12. Denver - Ryan Clady, OT, Boise St.
-Instant pick

13. Carolina – Chris Williams, OT, Vanderbilt
-OT for sure, maybe trade up for Clady

14. Chicago – Branden Albert, OG/OT, Virginia
Really tough pick, and this is my team (suppose to be easy). The Bears could trade up to get Clady but that isn’t their style. They would take Willams as plan B but he’s gone as well. I don’t see them taking Otah, Cherilus is a long shot. The real wild card here is Rashard Mendenhall, the Bears OC successfully recruited and surely will be making his case for the talented RB, I just don’t see them going RB round 1 as they seem locked in for an OT but have they drafted Albert as a LT or OG?

I ran out of gas so I’m stopping for now

Fuck, I just got scared. The 2007 draft is on the NFL Network right now. With everything else going on, I thought I forgot about it. I thought it was next weekend but this shook my confidence.

Then they were talking about Daymeion Hughes and I knew they were talking about last year.

Why is Rogers-Cromrairtie such a big deal? He played division 1-AA and had a good senior bowl. And a great combine. How does that translate to a top 10 pick?

Is it the last name he shares with his cousin. How many of us have actually seen him play a friggin game?

The usual. He's a freak, size and speed wise, at a position where those kind of athletes do not usually exist. Add in good work outs and combines, and he's become a freak.

i've read that he loves football and that's worth some browney points. Pats are said to like him. i dont think there's any question his physical tools, aka potential, will be a big part of why and when he is drafted

TEAMS CIRCULATING NEW TRADE CHART
Posted by Mike Florio on April 15, 2008, 10:38 a.m.
A couple of weeks ago, we developed a revised trade chart for valuing draft picks. We’ve since caught wind of a new chart that has been developed by and among multiple teams, and that could be put in use as soon as this year.

The new chart can be seen right here.

In contrast to the current trade chart, the new chart has very different values for the picks in round one. At the top, the points are compressed. The first pick was worth 3,000; it’s now down to 2,000. However, the sixth pick is worth more under the new chart than it was under the prior version. Each remaining pick, from No. 7 to No. 32, is worth more as well, with the last pick in the round now worth 670, up from 590.

The only difference in round two is that the first pick in the round is worth 570 under the new chart. It previously had a value of 580. The values for all picks in rounds three through seven are unchanged.

The chart has been revised due to the dramatic increases in the contracts paid to the first few players selected in the draft. The financial investment required when exercising such a high pick necessarily has reduced the total value of these picks, necessitating a reduction in the total perceived trade value of the top selections.

The apparent reason for the 100-point gap between the bottom of round one and the top of round two is that the last player drafted in round one can be signed to a five-year deal. At the top of round two, the maximum duration is four years.

Under that theory, however, the difference between picks No. 16 and No. 17 should be more than 40 points, since the maximum contract length at the top half of round one is six years.

It remains to be seen whether the new chart becomes widely used by NFL teams. It’s clearly an improvement, however, over the outdated chart that was developed in the 1990s.

it looks weird at first b/c of the drop at the top but it rounds out nicely

There's another interesting one in ESPN the mag. It used the old 3,000 point start but uses a similar methodology.

The charts never make any sense. If there's a blue chipper QB, he's basically worth infinity points. I'd say the old one was pretty fine. Picks 17-32 are worth too much in this situation, simply cause the first 16 let you negotiate a 6 year deal.

Basically, that chart needs a lot of work still.

Teams should stop using any sort of chart that means that Picks 1 thru whatever of one year are worth the same as the same picks of another year, when obviously the players' corresponding talent levels are different. It makes absolutely no logical sense.

If it's my team, my staff is assigning point values to players, not picks. If I need DL help but the draft is deep at that position, I'm not giving up a 3rd round pick for the difference between a guy I value as an 87 and another guy who I think is an 85.

Nice CJ. Nice. He was one of my favourite WRs too (which made it hard considering he's a Bengal), but I hate stuff like this.

Steve McNair to retire. Well that's 1 less quarterback we need to worry about. This is a rebuilding season so throw the young guys in there and see what they can do.

With all the shit the Bengals have fed to the media about him, I don't blame him. He's not a "lockerroom cancer", hes goofy.

He plays hard, practices hard, and is a great football player. The bengals defense just continues to be atrocious, and yet they're trying to blame him for them not getting to the playoffs.

So, apparently there is a decent chance of a deal being made for Jared Allen. Supposedly the Vikings and Buccaneers are interested.

May be a chance for Herm Edwards to make another first round selection.
