Tim Tebow is a Jet
The Denver Broncos have reportedly traded Jesus to the New York Jets in the advent of Monday's signing of Peyton Manning. This is of little concern to me, but Denver now has a REAL quarterback, and New York now has two mediocre pieces of shit and religion. Will Jesus take the Jets to the Super Bowl? Probably not. Will he dethrone Mark Sanchez? Probably not. Will the world finally see the end of Tebowing? I fucking hope so.

Free Agency: Day One
Perhaps the biggest move that happened on the opening day of free agency was the San Francisco 49ers' signing of 15-year veteran wide receiver Randy Moss. Well, until the Miami Dolphins decided to trade away Brandon Marshall to the Chicago Bears for two third-round picks (2012 and 2013). Two third-round picks? For Brandon Marshall? Miami, is your executive office a bunch of fucktards? Also, Pierre Garcon has apparently signed with the Washington Redskins, but no one cares.
That is pretty much the only actual news in terms of contracts being inked.

Randy Moss Signs with Niners
Randy Moss elected to sign with the San Francisco 49ers Monday, just hours after working out with them. This looks to be a low-risk, big-gain acquisition for the Niners, whose receivers were completely shut down in the NFC Championship in January. Granted, Braylon Edwards was supposed to be the same thing LAST season, but Edwards has never really had a good season, what, being in Cleveland most of the time. No, the Niners hope Moss plays like he did in 2009, a year before his rocky three-team 2010 season. Thoughts?
NFL Draft Preview - RBs
It's been a couple days since I last posted, but here I am now, live from Cincinnati!
The other day, I took a look at this year's crop of QBs who probably won't amount to shit. Now we get into the players that actually contribute to a team: running backs.
Trent Richardson - Alabama
Trent Richardson is an absolute beast of a ballcarrier. Standing in at 5'11" and 224 lbs, he has a low center of gravity which makes him a tough man to tackle. His speed is usually in the 4.50 range, but he has been clocked at 4.42, and he has impressive breakaway speed. This means that the secondary had better just get out of his way when he's charging. He didn't run at the Combine, due to a minor knee surgery. In his three years with the Tide, he rushed for 3130 yards on 540 carries (5.7 avg) and rolled for 35 touchdowns. Bear in mind that his first two years were spent behind Mark Ingram. If he doesn't go in the top 10, someone is dumb as fuck.
David Wilson - Virginia Tech
David Wilson's draft stock has him shooting up from being a third-round selection to a late first-round early second-rounder. He is a smaller back, at 5'10" and 209 lbs, so he's not going to be an every-down type of back. His speed (his lowest 40 was 4.32) will draw interest from teams with power feature backs who are looking for a change of pace back or a third down back. His hands are exemplary for a running back, averaging just under 10 yards per catch the past two seasons.
A running back from the U. Go figure! What? A running back from the U who hasn't been riddled with injuries you say? Odd. Lamar Miller is a fairly decent-sized back, standing in a 5'11" and 212 lbs, and has amazing speed for someone that size. The downside to him is his lack of power and experience (he only played two seasons at Miami) . He should go in the mid-late first round, or the early second.

Doug Martin - Boise State
At 5'9" and 219 lbs, we have another running back who is built like a short brick shithouse. Martin, unlike Richardson, is more of an elusive back than a truck, but that doesn't mean he can't lay the hurt on some unwary defender. The man has a nose for the endzone, recording at least 12 touchdowns in three straight seasons, which leads me to wonder if he will be the one to show us how to Dougie. He would be most effective in a dual-back system, alongside a power back. Tampa Bay and Buffalo would be good a good fit for Martin and his skill set.

Lamar Miller - Miami

Isaiah Pead - Cincinnati
I'll be honest, until I started this, I had never heard of Isaiah Pead. In fact, I don't think I would have ever heard of him until the draft. Thing is, I still know nothing about him other than the fact he's a small, shifty back with possibly the best overall speed in this class of backs. He's got good hands (Cincy used him in the slot a lot), and good power for someone his size. He looks to be a second- or third-round pick, probably going to a team with a power back.

Rams Rob Redskins Blind
The Saint Louis Rams have reportedly traded their first round pick (#2) in this year's NFL Draft to the Redskins in exchange for...
Wait for it...
Wait for it...
The Redskins 1st Round pick in 2012, 2013 AND 2014 plus the 2nd Round pick in 2012
So, the Skins trade away their future in order to get one man (RG3) and the Rams get the sixth pick in the draft. Someone seriously needs to go to DC and knock some sense into the execs' heads. Trading away three first round picks in order to get someone who probably will fizzle in the NFL? That's just not smart, especially with Peyton Manning on the market.
However, this may not be good for the Rams. They have a history of wasting good draft picks -cough-Sam Bradford-cough-

Colts Release Manning?

All that aside, the biggest question now is who will land the 36-year old QB? Some teams who are interested in his services include the Arizona Cardinals, Kansas City Chiefs, Tennessee Titans, Seattle Seahawks and New York Jets (What? Already giving up on Mark Sanchez?). Where will Manning fall? What does Manning's free agent status mean for Matt Flynn? (Who?)

The hits keep coming for the Saints (pun intended). Brees to stop being such a whiny little faggot and sign the tender. It's $15 million. No bonus, but still. $15 million. Only a dumbass would turn down that kind of scratch.
No new news in the Bounty Hunter saga.
Payton Supported by Owner, Gregg the Bounty Hunter Still At-Large
As we all know, the New Orleans Saints have come under fire as of late with the allegations that former defensive coordinator Gregg Williams, currently with the Saint Louis Rams, would give his defensive players bonuses for injuring opposing players. It has also been alleged that head coach Sean Payton knew of this and did nothing to stop it. According to the Associated Press, Saints owner Tom Benson supports Payton and general manager Mickey Loomis as they face these allegations despite Benson's claims of telling Loomis to stop the program.
The fan of carnage in me fully supports this, but the football fan in me wants to see justice in some form other than fines. I can understand inflicting an injury on another player to gain a competitive edge, as long as the hit was clean. As far as I know, there is no rule in the NFL that prohibits malicious hits (except head shots and hitting the quarterback too hard). However, there is legislation prohibiting non-contract incentives, which makes me wonder what the issue is about: is it the safety of players that the league has in mind, or are they simply looking to line their pockets with the money collected from fines? Readers, what are your thoughts on Nawlins' injury incentive program?
