The Cards are trying to sign Marc Bulger. So far he has turned them down. If they do sign him its a pretty big blow for us.

Reading this makes me think the Eagles will be a team to be reckoned with this year. With Washburn as DL coach the may be able to bring in Haynesworth and return him to something approching his prior self. And they'll be in the mix for other FA's as well.

Scratch Chad Pennington as an option for the Miami Dolphins' -- or anybody else's -- quarterback depth chart next season.

Pennington told the Charleston Daily Mail he plans to skip the 2011 season while he recovers from shoulder and knee injuries and will work for Fox Sports as an analyst. The two-time NFL Comeback Player of the Year, who will turn 35 next weekend, said he might consider returning to the field in 2012.

"I'm actually going to take this year off, get healthy and do some work for Fox Sports," Pennington told the West Virginia newspaper. "I'm going to evaluate things and see where I am physically."

This is like saying the Paul Reiser Show is going to take a year long break from television.

ESPN News has just confirmed that, upon exiting the interview, Chad apparently separated his shoulder when he pushed the elevator's lobby button.

Roughly 100 rookies don’t show up for rookie symposium

The NFLPA* is doing a terrific job by holding their “Business of Football” sessions, their own version of the annual NFL rookie symposium which was canceled by the lockout.
Unfortunately, they can’t make attendance mandatory. Roughly 100 rookies are expected to sit out.
Alex Marvez of FoxSports.com wrote Monday that approximately 125 of the 254 players drafted were expected to attend. The NFLPA* tells PFT their official head count is 152.
Whatever the exact number is, it’s a shame that such a large segment of the league’s rookie class passed on such a great opportunity.

Redskins will have a hard time trading McNabb

http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com...rading-mcnabb/

The contract extension to which McNabb agreed gives the Redskins the ability to squat on McNabb until the eve of the regular-season opener. After Week One, the Redskins would owe McNabb a $10 million option bonus and a $2.5 million base salary. Before then, however, the Redskins owe McNabb nothing — and thus the Redskins can wait for the kind of trade offer that they want.

Or McNabb can buy out the balance of his contract. For the tidy sum of $30 million.

Jason Reid of the Washington Post recently speculated that the Redskins would get, at most, a conditional sixth-round or seventh-round pick for McNabb. Even then, McNabb likely would have to be willing to renegotiate his contract.

2KBack · 07-05-2011, 09:54 AM

Wait...was the 40 time determined by someone timing a dash on the field, or by how fast he set the treadmill? I mean if it's the treadmill thing it's completely inaccurate. You don't have to propel yourself on a treadmill, that's why it's not as good as outdoor or track running.

I don't believe anything from the Marshall camp. They are liars and can't be trusted. I could easily see Marshall lying about how good of shape he is in, how fast he is, anything but say I worked on not dropping big balls and running good routes. It doesn't matter he won't get any better and has peaked. The reason is he tries to get by mostly on being bigger and stronger then other players. He doesn't work like say and Eddie Mac on perfecting his routes. He's a turd, doesn't work hard, and will have another sucky yr. He wasn't worth what Miami gave up.

Quarterback Kerry Collins on Thursday announced his retirement from the NFL.

The 38-year-old Collins was the first draft pick (fifth overall) of the expansion Carolina Panthers in 1995 out of Penn State. Besides Carolina, he also played for the New Orleans Saints, New York Giants, Oakland Raiders and Tennessee Titans in 16 seasons. He threw for 40,441 yards with 206 touchdowns and 195 interceptions and was a two-time Pro Bowler.

Congrats on getting out of the gutter and being a solid pro Kerry.
