NFL Scouting Combine 2014

Is J. Clowney DE Clemson a top 5 pick? Will Teddy Bridgewater be a franchise QB? Can Johnny Manziel electrify the NFL the way he did the SEC and Texas A & M.
There are many names that have surfaced including Watkins, Robinson and more. The question for the top teams in draft positions is need vs  hype. The most recent collective bargaining agreement has evened the playing field and put a lid on un proven rookies getting paid huge money without ever playing a NFL down. Now teams can draft need and position their teams for success.
The next 2 months will be very interesting to watch.  The Texans and Bill O'Brian are in a position to help an already talented football team. My quess is Oby takes a page out of his grooming as a Patriot assistant and trades down for draft picks.  We will have our answers to this very deep and talented draft and how franchises choose to position themselves.

The NFL's New QB Era! Is it here to stay?

The NFL & the Read Option QB: Here we go, 1 month from the draft and everybody is looking for the next RG3, Russell Wilson, Colin Kaepernick or Cam Newton.  The mobile QB that runs the read option that can lead a franchise to the promise land.  I am here to tell you that Mike Tomlin head coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers said correctly recently; "the read option QB is just the flavor of the month!"  It is a fad that is here now and will be gone soon enough.  The Philadelphia Eagles have mortgaged their future in hiring Chip Kelly away from Oregon to bring him into the NFL to run his high octane read option offense with plays being run every 13 seconds!   I am of the belief that Mike Tomlin's words will proof to be prophetic.  RG3 and his knee injury last year against the Ravens is just the start of the injured reserve list being filled with these high dollar QB's that run the read option.  These guys will riddle the IR next season....

Welker & Amendola find New Homes

Welker to the Broncos & Amendola to the Patriots Well, Tom Brady restructures his contract to provide cap space for the Patriots to resign Wes Welker.  All indications were that Brady would keep his go to WR now that the money space was available.  How free agency can change.  Belichick has always operated as if players other than Brady were moving parts.  He has for the most part been right on the moves he has made.  Losing Welker is a risky move.  Welker may not be the type of guy that Belichick traditionally operates with.  Last year Welker spoke out against the Patriots and Belichick during his hold out and many including me thought the Patriots would part ways with Welker.  They franchised him last year and Welker responded with another 100+ receiving year.  Now, Belichick, Brady and now Josh McDaniels know how to maintain a roster and they certainly know how to put points up and win football games.  Welker has been the re...
