    • Thanks Pack for the info.

      Jerome Murphy. Hmm. He's got the size, it would seem. I wonder how fast he is and how well he can turn.

        Davis' Workout Probably Solidifies Status In Top 15
        All the reports that Rutgers left tackle Anthony Davis is in a freefall in the first round of this year's draft that perhaps could make him available when the Packers pick at No. 23 overall appear to have jumped the gun.

        Davis became one of the top two or three left-tackle prospects when he declared for the draft as a junior eligible. But as scouts looked deeper into his history, some questioned his commitment to the game and maturity.

        When Davis didn't participate in Rutgers' Pro Day on March 10, some scouts apparently were miffed, though Davis said he was ill and had a hamstring injury, and his agent said he'd notified teams. Davis also refused to be measured or weighed when he eventually showed up at the workout to let teams know he wasn't just skipping the session, which didn't win him any points.

        All those factors combined had some draftniks speculating that Davis could go from a possible top-10 pick to the bottom part of the first round. In their most recent mock drafts, ESPN's Mel Kiper had him going No. 18 overall , and Todd McShay had him going to the Packers at No. 23.

        Looks like those predictions are unlikely now, though. On Wednesday he held a personal workout for 11 teams that reportedly went well. He measured in at 6-feet-5 and 325 pounds and looked good in all drills, according to NationalFootballPost.com. It's looking like he's a likely top-15 pick after all.

        • Giants Sign Deon Grant; decent signing.
          They are worried Philips degenerative knee might end his career
          Grant provides stability for a talented defense looking to come back after a disappointing year
          TERD Buckley over Troy Vincent, Robert Ferguson over Chris Chambers, Kevn King instead of TJ Watt, and now, RICH GANNON, over JIMMY JIMMY JIMMY LEONARD. Thank you FLOWER

          • With Aaron Rouse patrolling the back end, the Giants are looking at a big comeback year!

            Man, what happened to that guy? He looked awfully good at times his rookie year. Then he pooped the bed.

              The Giants released Rouse in early March. His career continues to fade. He started about half the season for the Giants, and they thought so little of him that they didn't even want to bring him back to training camp in the fall.

              • This is what scares me about Taylor Mays. The two players seem similar in skills and potential. And drawbacks.

                • Cowboys beat writer Todd Archer reports that the team is set to release FS Ken Hamlin.

                  • He's the guy many rats wanted TT to sign a couple years ago. Was he better than Bigby?

                      I wonder if he can play SS... I doubt T.T. will sign him, some team will pay him big money to play FS...

                      I know he had an off year last year ( I watch a lot of cowboys games ) , but the year before he was a playmaker and was all over the field.

                          Mays is WAY more talented than Rouse.
                          As far as concerns about the players, that may be the same. I remain luke warm for Mays.

                          I can't figure out which player to curse this year

                            Athletically, yeah. Between the ears? Probably about the same.

                            • Wouldn't it be interesting to be able to interview some of these guys?

                              Bretsky, I'll take your word on Mays and Hamlin both. I just don't know that much about either.

                              • Im worried about Mays. He's such an athletic talent, and seems like he has a good head on his shoulders. But can he really be intelligent enough to play safety at the NFL level?

                                Mays is the ultimate late first round gamble. He's either boom or bust. All we can do is trust in Ted to make the right bet.
