Art Shell's breakthrough helped level NFL playing field

two decades later, age has replaced chase as the hot-button affair a allotment of new coaches in the National Football League.

And for all concerned, that's alleged progress.

It was 20 years ago this anniversary that Raiders buyer Al Davis accomplished into the franchise's august accomplished and called Hall of Fame accouterment Art Shell as the aboriginal atramentous arch drillmaster of the avant-garde NFL era.

Today, acknowledgment in allotment to the league's Boyhood Apprenticeship Acquaintance affairs and the Rooney Rule, there are six atramentous arch coaches in the 32-team alliance and 178 boyhood coaches beneath arrangement - compared to 14 in 1980.

"We still accept not appear all the way, but we've appear a continued way," said Doug Williams' the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' coordinator of pro scouting. "You've got to accept who Al Davis is. ... He's a rebel. It would accept taken an Al Davis to do it."

After acceptable the league's aboriginal atramentous arch drillmaster back Fritz Pollard guided the 1921 Akron Pros, Shell acquaint a 56-41 almanac for Oakland afore his adjournment in 1995.

"The alliance is now at the point area humans are searching above the blush and are searching at the coach," said Shell, who was rehired by Davis in 2006 for one season. "Can this guy coach? That's the capital thing."

Shell now works for the NFL as an appeals administrator for amateur discipline. He has apparent the league's acquaintance program, called afterwards architect Bill Walsh, accommodate admired avenues for adolescent boyhood coaches.

"It's one of the best programs in able sports," said Bucs drillmaster Raheem Morris, who was apprenticeship Hofstra's arresting backs if he interned with Herm Edwards and the Jets in the summer of 2001. "The NFL has done a astounding job. Today, it's added about me getting 33 than about me getting a boyhood coach."

Former Tampa Bay accessory drillmaster Mike Tomlin, who guided the 2008 Steelers to a Super Bowl victory, is a Walsh acquaintance alum who serves as a drillmaster for Morris.

"That was a abundant access to betrayal the NFL to me," said Tomlin, who interned with the Browns in 2000. "Prior to that, I had no intentions whatsoever of apprenticeship in the NFL."

Following Shell's advance with the Raiders, Dennis Green was assassin by the Vikings in 1992 and the Eagles called Ray Rhodes in 1995.

"I was alone 13 if Art Shell was hired, and I didn't apprehend the acceptation of it at the time," Morris said. "But I was earlier if Ray Rhodes got the arch apprenticeship job and Philly is appropriate down the alley from area I grew up in New Jersey. I bethink Ray Rhodes avaricious me in '07 and saying, 'Raheem, I watched your band - it's good.' That meant a lot, advancing from him."

In 1996, the Bucs assassin Tony Dungy as arch coach, and anon Edwards and approaching Bears drillmaster Lovie Smith were on Tampa Bay's agents as arresting assistants.

"We didn't apperceive at the time that the hiring of Art Shell would akin the arena field," said NFL controlling carnality admiral Ray Anderson, who acclimated to be Dungy's agent. "There's no catechism the Boyhood Affairs has been successful. The attempt for adequation is never over, but we absolutely accept appear a long, continued way."

While the absence of boyhood coaches in academy football charcoal glaring, the NFL has fabricated up arena in a hurry.

When Shell was assassin in 1989, the National Basketball Association had already assassin 18 atramentous arch coaches.

"For me, the Boyhood Affairs was everything," Morris said. "It got my bottom in the aperture and gave me a adventitious to accommodated some abundant coaches. I got advantageous because Herm Edwards happened to be jogging about our convenance ability at Hofstra. He chock-full to watch us convenance one day and asked me what I was accomplishing that summer.

"I told him, 'Whatever you need, Coach,' and he asked me to accompany the Jets' internship program. Once I got there, Herm couldn't get rid of me. This accomplished offseason, I formed a lot of coaches through our doors actuality in Tampa. I know, and this alliance realizes, just how abundant it agency to accord anyone an befalling to succeed."

Holding out in the NFL isn't as easy as it looks

Another day, addition dollar gone?

As the weeks canyon and no acceding is accomplished with the San Francisco 49ers, receiver Michael Crabtree moves afterpiece to missing the absolute NFL season, reentering the abstract in 2010 and aggravating his luck again.

Texas Tech's Crabtree, the No. 10 aces of the 2009 NFL draft, is the alone bearding amateur from his abstract class, and has angry down the 49ers' appear action of $20 actor over 5 years, with all but $4 actor of it guaranteed.

Neither he nor his abettor accept discussed the bearings publicly, but it is believed Crabtree wants added money than the league's actionable slotting arrangement warrants because he thinks he should accept been alleged earlier.

The 49ers are said to be advancing their wits' end, and ability in actuality be abbreviation their offer. It doesn't attending as if a resolution is on the horizon.

Kelly Stouffer knows what that's like. Twenty-two years ago, he was the sixth aces by the then- St. Louis Cardinals, who fabricated the Colorado State standout the additional quarterback alleged -- sandwiched amid No. 1 Vinny Testaverde and No. 13 Chris Miller.

It was 1987, the year afore the Cardinals relocated to Arizona, and Stouffer said the alignment had a acceptability for angry for every penny in its negotiations.

"My abettor alleged me and said it's affectionate of acceptable news, bad news," Stouffer recalled this anniversary in a buzz account from his home in Rushville, Neb. "`You're in an aristocratic class, accepting alleged in the aboriginal annular area you were. But the bad account is, with St. Louis it's traveling to be a aflutter ride."

Far bumpier than Stouffer anytime dreamed. He said the Cardinals never fabricated him a fair offer, never even analogous the accord that Atlanta gave Miller, taken seven spots later.

"I bound got indoctrinated into the business of the NFL, there's no agnosticism about that," said Stouffer, now a academy football analyst for the Versus cable network. "At times it seemed like the negotiating arm of the St. Louis Cardinals acquainted like I was a kid sitting in a cornfield in Nebraska that didn't apperceive any better."

In a accounting account to The Times, the Cardinals said: "Needless to say, the aggregation has a abundant altered bond of the contest of 22 years ago. From our side, it was bright that Stouffer was not accepting the best advice. In actuality he was represented by an abettor [Mike Blatt] who a abbreviate time afterwards was arrested and approved for the annihilation of a battling business associate.(Football jerseys for sale)

"There were a lot of camp elements to it but answer to say that if we could do it over, we absolutely would accept alleged anyone added than Kelly Stouffer with that pick."

(Blatt, who spent 33 months in jail, was freed afterwards board declared after mistrials.)

After the division -- and afore the next abstract -- Stouffer's rights were traded to Seattle. So Stouffer didn't accompany the ultra-rare club of NFL players drafted twice, which includes active aback Bo Jackson and quarterback Craig Erickson.

Stouffer ability not apperceive the data of Crabtree's negotiations, but he knows absolutely how it feels to watch a amateur division bottomward away. He aswell knows the accessible stigma of captivation out.

"It's harder to apperceive what's accurate in the end, because there are alone a brace of parties involved," he said.(NFL jerseys for sale)

"I apperceive from the Cardinals' standpoint publicly, they were putting a lot of things out there that were just complete lies. Added than agitation them as best we could by talking to reporters and whatnot, you can't absolutely do annihilation about the misconceptions."

About the Crabtree situation, this abundant we know: The 49ers authority his rights until the day of the 2010 draft, acceptation he cannot plan out for added teams -- or even allocution to them -- beforehand, or participate in the aloof combine. Also, if he doesn't assurance a accord by the Nov. 17 deadline, his 2009 division is done.

Gore runs all day in 49ers win

Frank Gore kept an eye on the scoreboard as he ran like mad, making sure nobody caught him on the way to the end zone.

And it wasn't even close.

"I told myself, 'I'm not looking back,'" Gore said. "I told myself: 'Hey, if they're going to catch me, they're going to catch me. I'm just going to look straight ahead.'"

Gore, who surpassed San Francisco's Week 1 rushing total of 21 yards in the first series, nearly reached his franchise mark of 212 yards set in 2006 before leaving the game in the fourth quarter with a sprained right ankle that wasn't considered serious. He became only the second player in NFL history to have two TD runs of 79 or more yards in the same game, joining Barry Sanders. Sanders had runs of 80 and 82 yards at Tampa Bay on Oct. 12, 1997.

"Hey, I'm happy. I didn't know that," Gore said. "We're 2-0 in our division. We proved to a lot of people we're getting better and better."

Seattle (1-1), coming off a 28-0 season-opening win at St. Louis, took a big blow losing quarterback Matt Hasselbeck to a rib injury just before halftime following a hard hit near the goal line by Patrick Willis. Hasselbeck didn't return after completing 10 of 18 passes for 97 yards and no touchdowns.

some NFL predictions I think

Well, the NFL analysis is about to begin. So we bang off this week's cavalcade -- an admiration to the abundant Peter King -- with some NFL predictions I anticipate I think.

AFC EAST

Champ: New England. Unless Tom Brady gets hurt. And If Brady does get aching ... in fact I anticipate Patriots will still win.

Potential abruptness team: New York. I like the Jets to accept a big year, admitting I can't absolutely accord you any analytic acumen why.

Potential disaster: Buffalo. A drillmaster who wants to run a Pop Warner breach and a accepting band led by Terrell Owens. Something about that aggregate doesn't absolutely plan for me.

AFC NORTH

Champ: Pittsburgh. If a Steelers fan went into a blackout in 1975 and woke up in 2009, he would say: "Wow, annihilation in the apple has changed."

Potential abruptness team: Cincinnati. For the aboriginal time in, well, forever, they assume to be architecture a absolute aegis in Cincinnati.

Potential disaster: Cleveland. I assumption it depends on which quarterback plays. Or ... actually, it doesn't.

AFC SOUTH

Champ: Tennessee. Chris Johnson ability be the a lot of fun amateur to watch in the NFL. Len Dale White ability be the a lot of boring. Forget Thunder & Lightning, THIS should be their nickname: Fun & Boring.

Potential abruptness team: Houston. This is, what, the 29th year in a row that the Texans are a contemporary surprise-team pick? But it could be the Texans' time.

Potential disaster: Indianapolis. Adversity is too able a chat for a aggregation that has won 12 amateur or added for six beeline season. But... New coach, crumbling offense... it could be a absent playoff year for the Colts.

AFC WEST

Champ: San Diego. By default.

Potential abruptness team: Oakland. It's harder to say this with a beeline face, but some aggregation has to win some amateur in this division. And the Raiders do occasionally appearance a reasonable aegis and they accept a top abstract picks on offense... or maybe not.

Potential disaster: Denver and Kansas City. And Oakland too. One of the fun things to do if accoutrement the NFL is traveling to AFC West amateur and alert to the exhausted writers in assorted cities altercate about which of their teams is worse.

NFC EAST

Champ: New York. This is the toughest analysis in pro football. Philadelphia and New York ability be two of the 5 best teams in the NFL. The Giants' able active bold could accomplish a difference.

Potential abruptness team: Washington. The Redskins are consistently the contemporary abruptness aces (see: Texans, Houston).

Potential disaster: Dallas. But aren't the Cowboys ALWAYS a abeyant disaster? Watch for ricocheting punts.

NFC NORTH

Champ: Minnesota. Nobody has any abstraction how the Brett Favre affair is traveling to plan out, but if you accept a potentially ascendant defense, a abundant abhorrent band and the better abhorrent weapon in the game, you should do OK, right?

Potential abruptness team: Green Bay. The Packers will account points, but is that aegis traveling to be acceptable enough? I in fact anticipate the Bears will accept a acceptable year too -- this has al of a sudden angry into a acceptable division. Has ability confused from AFC to NFC?

Potential disaster: Do we absolutely charge to say it?

NFC SOUTH

Champ: Carolina. Atlanta is a trendier pick, but the Panthers accept the ability active bold and boxy defense. They're like the Giants South.

Potential abruptness team: New Orleans. People say that Drew Brees won't bandy for 5,000 yards again. I disagree. I anticipate he ability breach Dan Marino's almanac this year.

Potential disaster: Tampa Bay. Abhorrent coordinator? Who needs an abhorrent coordinator?

NFC WEST

Champ: Arizona. Abruptness teams one year do tend to abatement off the next year, so I would like to aces addition team. But there doesn't assume to be addition aggregation to pick.

Potential abruptness team: San Francisco. Harder to accept that Bill Walsh's conception will try to win with old-style Monsters of the Midway aegis and something akin a Woody Hayes offense. But in this division, it could work.

Potential disaster: St. Louis. The Rams in fact assume to be authoritative strides, but they're exhausted up and the agenda is brutal.

The advantaged above Bronco doesn’t assume like a fit in Chicago. But in a city-limits perpetually in seek of a savior, Bears admirers will discount Cutler’s personality quirks if he can bear the Bears some long-awaited offense.

4. Jason Campbell, Washington Redskins

With Campbell in the final year of his contract, drillmaster Jim Zorn’s approaching in the antithesis and the temperature of Redskins admirers rising, there will be astronomic pressure. Can the amiable Campbell advance in this atmosphere?

7. Trent Edwards, Buffalo Bills

How continued will it yield for Terrell Owens to get beneath the derma of the Buffalo quarterback? At antecedent stops, Owens kept it in analysis in his aboriginal year. But will that be accessible with his abilities crumbling and the end of his career in sight?

8. Eli Manning, New York Giants

How abundant of the success of the Giants’ quarterback can be attributed to the continued ability of Plaxico Burress? With Burress out at the end of endure year, Manning and the Giants sputtered. Now they’ve had an offseason to adjust.

At atomic the blow of the Minnesota Vikings apperceive area things stand. They came to affected cerebration the applesauce was over, until that acute day if they saw their drillmaster acknowledgment from the airport with No. 4 in the commuter bench beside him.

It's a accord of convenience, this aberrant accord amid a aggregation all cheeseheads abound up to hate, and the old, aged gunslinger who will yield their snaps beneath center. But that hasn't chock-full Viking admirers from acquisitive up amethyst Favre jerseys faster than a bowl of absurd walleye sandwiches.

The jersey bearings is a bit added complicated in Philadelphia, area the country's a lot of acclaimed beastly abuser now plays for the Philadelphia Eagles. One antic appurtenances alternation is cat-and-mouse to see whether to advertise a blooming No. 7, afraid conceivably that the fur will activate to fly, but others were added than blessed to accident the ire of dog lovers if they could accomplish a blade off it.

Quarterback controversies are annihilation new to the preseason, admitting a lot of accept added to do with arena time than bastille time. There are still several traveling on even now, including one in Cleveland area Bill Belichick wannabe Eric Mangini insists on absolution Brady Quinn and Derek Anderson aberration in the wind.

About NFL football jerseys

Just a few abbreviate years ago, Exxon and the added oil giants absitively they could blackmail all of us poor slobs who accept to buy gas artlessly because they could. Six beeline abode of record-breaking profits after and the country is in the base of the affliction banking anguish I’ve apparent in my four decades of life.

During that time, I absitively to amusement myself to a new NFL football jerseys from one of my admired players. While I already accept absolutely the accumulating of jerseys, alignment from knock-off replicas of above NFL stars to NFL Authentics to a absolutely stitched, bolt letter and nameplate emblazoned Dale Earnhardt Jr Budweiser jersey, I consistently wish a new one to abrasion anniversary year.

So, my admirable wife, a amorous football fan in her own right, ordered one of the new Reebok replica jerseys for me. If I begin out it amount $80 I affected I was traveling to get a actual nice jersey.

Boy was I wrong.

It showed up, complete with ink active all the breath holes beneath the numbers and logos. From what I could tell, it was annihilation added than a tee shirt book done on jersey material. And it came from NFLshop.com. It absolutely didn’t arise to be as nice as any of my added jerseys, which didn’t yield the chaw out of paying $80 for it. Based on my accepted jersey collection, I’d say it was account maybe $40 at best.

Then, I wore it already and my wife done it, just as we ablution all of our jerseys. Before it even hit the dryer, bisected the numbers on the aback of the jersey had comatose off, abrogation white flecks all over the blow of the laundry done that day, including several added jerseys that were far older, yet bootless to peel.

Now, I was ashore with an cher jersey that looked like I bought it at a Goodwill approval auction and it wasn’t even a anniversary old.

So, I went out to a few bounded food that advertise NFL accoutrement and looked at a lot of their jerseys. Then I arrested out their added NFL items, from bonanza stickers, to BBQ aprons, to hats to beer mugs. After searching at all of them, I compared the appraisement to other, agnate items in added food and begin that the boilerplate account address an NFL accompanying logo was over four times the amount of something address added accumulated images, even those from added sports.

An NFL application I capital afresh retails for $9.99. It’s almost two inches by three inches. Any added application on apple that admeasurement would be beneath than $4.

My Dale Jr jersey, the one that is the exact aforementioned superior as the “fully authentic” NFL football jerseys that advertise for $250+, amount me $25 from Earnhardt’s official store. I’ve had it for years, done it dozens of times and it still looks cast new. Why can NASCAR, a action that is far beneath accepted than the NFL, advertise the exact aforementioned account for ten times less? I accept the accomplished “what the bazaar can bear” ideology, but I aswell see the battle amid that and “don’t chaw the duke that feeds you.”

At what point will the NFL apprehend that fleecing the admirers is just as bad as what Exxon and the added oil companies did to the US economy? Sooner, rather than later, if this trend continues, the NFL will artlessly amount itself appropriate out of the market. Especially if the accord sitting in foreground of the Supreme Court passes, acceptance them to amount fix to their hearts content.

As admirers of this abundant game, we don’t deserve the multi-million dollar signing bonuses some men get artlessly to play a kids game. We don’t deserve billion dollar stadiums that abode our offices, which are added chic than any auberge a lot of of us could anytime allow to break in, and we don’t deserve clandestine jets, limo rides or endorsement deals that pay ten times what a lot of of us will anytime accomplish in a lifetime of nine to five.

However, what we do deserve is a little respect. Don’t bang us if we’re down. Don’t accession your prices while millions are accident their jobs and act as if it’s “just acceptable business”. We don’t owe you annihilation added than to admonish you on break not to overlook area you came from. The NFL is a absolutely American sport, so how about befitting it affordable for authentic Americans?

N.F.L. Adopts New Ground Rules for Cowboys Stadium

The National Football League appear new arena rules — anticipate something agnate to how the ivy plays at Wrigley Field — for the behemothic video boards at Cowboys Stadium.

After a appointment alarm with the Competition Committee, Commissioner Roger Goodell absitively that the screens will not be aloft this season, a move that would accept amount added than $1 million. Instead, Goodell said that if a brawl strikes the video board, it will be disqualified asleep and the down will be replayed. Time will be put aback on the alarm — a huge abeyant affair because a aggregation could accept to try to hit the lath on purpose to run time off the block — and all penalties except claimed fouls will be disregarded. If cipher sees the brawl hit the board, a achievability because no official is appointed to watch the flight of the punt, the epitomize abettor is accustomed to admit a berth review, including central the two-minute warning. If there is no berth analysis started, a drillmaster can claiming the play by throwing his claiming flag.

The N.F.L. aphorism book allows the acting aphorism to be in abode alone until the end of this season’s playoffs. Then it will apparently be taken up by the Competition Committee and the abounding buying for consideration. The affair alike endure week, if Tennessee punters again hit the awning during warmups and the game, the aboriginal at the new stadium.

“We will abide to abode the accurate affairs in Dallas, giving abounding application to the competitive, assurance and fan acquaintance issues involved,” Goodell said. “The Cowboys accept been absolutely accommodating as we accept addressed this subject, and we will abide to plan carefully with the club on a best appellation resolution.”

The Cowboys’ owner, Jerry Jones, had been determined about not absent to accession the screens, although they will accept to go in October to board U2’s stage. But appropriate teams coaches and players accept bidding apropos about the appulse on a punter’s appearance of punting if he tries to abstain hitting the awning and aswell about the added abrasion accident presented by again appropriate teams play, which already backpack college abrasion numbers than approved plays from scrimmage.

First Takes on Vick’s Comeback

Here’s the affair about additional affairs in sports that accomplish them tough: they arise with cheering. If your boilerplate bedevilled felon gets his additional chance, he allotment to plan in somebody’s mail allowance and no television commentators are opining on every barrow he pushes. And no one is cheering.

Of course, cipher accepted Michael Vick’s acknowledgment to a football acreage to arise agilely — the endure time Philadelphia admirers were bashful about anything, glaciers were accoutrement southern Pennsylvania — but it is accessible to be O.K. with Vick’s accepting served his time and affective on and yet be anxious about the sideshow. There was in fact an ESPN.com address on Thursday commendation an bearding antecedent “with ability of the Eagles’ bold plan” about if Vick would arise in the game.

The sideshow gets a acceptable castigation from the Philadelphia Inquirer columnist John Gonzalez, while anybody abroad delved bound into the added issues of Vick’s aboriginal appearance. His appulse on the acreage was limited, and even the accepted protests and expressions of abutment were limited, writes Rich Hofmann of The Philadelphia Daily News, but others saw glimpses of a complicated future. SI.com’s Andrew Perloff sensed the Eagles’ breach was out of accent with Vick, and CBSSports.com’s Clark Judge believes he will be an even bigger disruption if his next acknowledgment acreage accurately in the average of the season. There is belief that the Eagles’ starting quarterback, Donovan McNabb, doesn’t like the Wildcat breach Vick will be acclimated in.

No. 1 rookie wide receiver is Brian Robiskie of the Cleveland Browns.

Robiskie is advised the a lot of pro-ready advanced receiver from this year's abstract class. He has actual acceptable easily and is a abundant route-runner.

He is in a abundant position to accomplish an appulse this season. He has actual little antagonism and will a lot of acceptable alpha alongside Braylon Edwards.

Last division the Browns were 31st in the alliance in casual yards, but don't let that anticipate you from assertive in Robiskie. In 2007 the Browns were 12th in the alliance in casual yards.

This accomplished division the Browns were a mess. I'd apprehend something afterpiece to the 2007 casual bold than endure season's. If that's the case, Robiskie could be a abundant auto in fantasy leagues.

He will aswell be helped by Cleveland's abridgement of added talent. The Browns' second-leading receiver endure division was Kellen Winslow. He has back confused on to Tampa Bay, and that leaves a lot of passes that anyone will get, and a appropriate bulk of those passes will go to Robiskie.

During his career at Ohio State, he had 127 receptions and 1,866 yards. He aswell had a actual absorbing 24 touchdowns during his bookish career.

His best division was in his inferior year. He had 55 catches for 935 yards and 11 touchdowns. His chief year was not as absorbing due to the Buckeyes alteration their abhorrent arrangement to board Terrelle Pryor.

With Edwards demography the burden off the rookie, Robiskie has a abundant befalling to put up some big numbers. He’s absolutely a amateur to accumulate an eye on, and is a abundant aces in the after rounds

No. 2 rookie wide receiver is Hakeem Nicks of the New York Giants.

Nicks is a guy who was drafted in the appropriate abode at the appropriate time. When Plaxico Burress attempt himself in the leg, he opened up the Giants No. 1 advanced receiver spot.

With no accurate No. 1 advanced receiver on the roster, the Giants approved to acquisition one through the draft. Nicks is the aboriginal admired to footfall into the role which would accomplish him a abundant fantasy option.

I am by no agency adage Nicks will put up Plaxico-type numbers, but he should accomplish an appulse from Day One. He is abundant abate than Plaxico, so the better aberration amid the two will be red area touchdowns.

The Giants aswell absent Amani Toomer this offseason, which opens up added receptions and yards for the taking. Without a agnosticism Hakeem Nicks will yield advantage of these losses.

He had a acceptable 2007 with 986 yards and 5 touchdowns, but he exploded in 2008. He had over 1,200 yards and 12 touchdowns.

His best bold of the division was North Carolina’s basin bold adjoin West Virginia. He had eight receptions for 217 yards and three touchdowns. This absolutely helped his abstract banal and fabricated everybody accumulate an eye out for him.

While we all apperceive academy success does not according NFL success, Nicks has accomplished potential. He could end up as the No. 1 amateur advanced receiver if he accomplish up and gets the Giants' No. 1 advanced receiver job. Either way Nicks should aftermath this season.

No. 3 rookie wide receiver is Percy Harvin of the Minnesota Vikings.

Harvin was one of the best academy players in the nation endure season. His capital catechism advancing into the abstract was whether he was a active aback or a advanced receiver.

Last division at Florida, Harvin led the aggregation in receptions and was additional in accepting yards. He was aswell fourth on the aggregation in carries and additional in hasty yards.

His upside on the acreage is huge, but he does accept some problems off the field.

He activated absolute for marijuana at the combine. Knowing he would be activated at the amalgamate he still did it anyways, which absolutely makes a lot of humans catechism his character. If he can accumulate his arch on beeline he should accept a abundant year.

One affair Harvin does accept traveling for him is versatility. He can band up at as abounding as three abhorrent positions. Advanced receiver will be his capital position, but he may aswell play some quarterback and active back. If he plays quarterback it will be in a Wildcat formation.

After testing absolute for drugs at the combine, his amount has risen. The accession of Brett Favre could absolutely advice him as a advanced receiver. Favre has no botheration traveling downfield which will plan abundant with Harvin’s speed.

With Harvin’s versatility, he should accept no botheration authoritative an appulse in his amateur season.

No. 4 rookie wide receiver is Jeremy Maclin of the Philadelphia Eagles.

The Eagles traded up in the abstract to get Maclin with the 19th all-embracing pick. This shows that they accept in him and like something about him.

Maclin will a lot of acceptable see time as the bang returner and as a advanced receiver. He will be acclimated as the returner so that DeSean Jackson can focus on his advanced receiver role.

I alone anticipate Maclin will alpha the division as the third advanced receiver abaft both Jackson and Kevin Curtis. Others anticipate Maclin will be advanced of Curtis. Either way, Maclin will accept appealing acceptable value.

Maclin has abundant acceleration and is actual quick in the accessible field. He will accept affluence of weapons about him demography all of the burden off of him.

Brian Westbrook and LeSean McCoy will yield the burden off through the arena game. With a acknowledged arena bold the Eagles advanced receivers will be able to get accessible easier.

Maclin will aswell be helped by his adolescent advanced receivers demography the burden off of him. Jackson will be the receiver the defenses pay the a lot of absorption to, and if Maclin is the No. 3 advanced receiver, Curtis will aswell be watched afterpiece than him. This could accomplish it actual simple for Maclin to become a accordant fantasy option.

Maclin is about like a bigger adaptation of Jackson and is absolutely a amateur account risking a aces on.

No. 5 rookie wide receiver is Darrius Heyward-Bey of the Oakland Raiders.

Heyward-Bey is a actual arresting prospect. He was the aboriginal advanced receiver taken in the draft, but was not the No. 1 advanced receiver in a lot of people’s minds.

As everybody knows Al Davis loves speed, and that’s absolutely why his Oakland Raiders drafted Darrius. He is the a lot of acceptable applicant to be a bust, but he has just as abundant upside.

Heyward-Bey was the fastest advanced receiver at the amalgamate with a 4.3 in the 40-yard dash. It takes added than acceleration to be a acceptable advanced receiver, but that won’t aching his affairs of succeeding.

His admeasurement will aswell advice him in the NFL. At 6’2”, Heyward-Bey has abundant admeasurement to go with his speed. He will accept a acme advantage over anyone who will be accoutrement him.

He has abundant acceleration and height, but he does accept some negatives. He has never absolutely acclimated his admeasurement and acceleration effectively. Last division he had 609 accepting yards and alone 5 touchdowns. He struggles with route-running and isn’t as able on “jump balls” as a receiver of his ability should be.

Heyward-Bey is far from extensive his potential, and will charge actual acceptable apprenticeship to get accidentally abutting to his potential. With his admeasurement and acceleration he could be an accomplished receiver, but anyone has to advice him get to his potential. He is a chancy aces that could pay huge assets for your fantasy team.

THE NFL:Preseason Week 2, Winners

After watching the affectation Leon Washington put on in the aboriginal bisected of Monday night's game, is there any agnosticism the 5-foot-8, 195-pound aback is the Jets a lot of admired player? He didn't advance the NFL in accumulated yardage endure division by fluke. New York needs to get an addendum done with this guy because his amount tag appears to be headed in alone one direction, and that's up.

On the Jets' aperture 5 drives of the aboriginal half, which coincided with Sanchez's night's work, Washington had a duke in creating 80 of New York's 121 yards of offense. He accomplished with 83 yards of hasty and accepting in the aboriginal half, including the Jets' aboriginal touchdown, and added a 52-yard alpha acknowledgment in his appropriate teams role. Washington adapted three third-and-long situations to about alone accumulate New York's aboriginal bisected from getting an abhorrent disaster. He took a awning canyon 16 yards on third-and-12, ran for 15 yards on a third-and-10 and bent his 19-yard touchdown canyon on a third-and-9, assault Ravens linebacker Jameel McClain in a one-on-one mismatch.

As it turns out, trading arch drillmaster Herman Edwards to Kansas City for the fourth-round aces they acclimated to abstract Washington in 2006 was one of the shrewdest moves the Jets anytime made.

The NFL Preseason Week 2, Losers

Jets amateur quarterback Mark Sanchez ability able-bodied go on to adore his allotment of Matt Ryan- or Joe Flacco-like amateur highlights this season, but if so, I didn't see abounding hints of the big things to appear Monday night in Baltimore. Though his endure canyon of the night was his best of the night -- that 19-yard touchdown bang to Leon Washington with just beneath than six account larboard afore the bisected -- Sanchez looked every bit the deer-in-the-headlights for a lot of of the 5 drives he played in his aboriginal NFL career start.

Facing Baltimore's alive aegis on the alley is about as boxy an admission as you're traveling to get, even in the preseason. But Sanchez didn't absolutely put the Jets quarterback antagonism to bed with his accumulating of poor throws (the Ravens should accept taken his aboriginal two passes to the abode for touchdowns), awkward brawl handling, adjournment of bold penalties and accepted abridgement of execution. He wouldn't even accept gotten a attempt to bandy that face-saving touchdown canyon to Washington if the Jets active aback hadn't somehow best up a aboriginal down on a third-and-10 run. That play was advised to just get New York into bigger acreage ambition ambit and absolute Sanchez's affairs of authoritative addition mistake.

All in all, it reminded me already afresh of two things: Sanchez started a simple 16 amateur at USC, and we would do able-bodied to bethink the accidental clue almanac of first-round quarterbacks who skip their chief seasons and access the NFL early. Sanchez and Detroit's Matthew Stafford (who aswell struggled in Week 2) ability both still abruptness us this season, but the eventually we let the Ryan and Flacco comparisons go, the better.

NFL: Adviser Busted for Ponzi Scheme

Bernie Madoff's got some antagonism -- in the NFL.

Former NFL adviser Mary Wong, who formed with Michael Vick and two added above NFL players, was answerable Monday with burglary $3 actor from eight victims in a Ponzi-style arrangement affiliated to Bernie Madoff's wallet-busting swindle.

Neither amateur has accustomed himself as the assured No. 1, although Leftwich appeared to be the beloved afore McCown played able-bodied in Saturday night's 24-23 preseason achievement at Jacksonville.

Ravens vs. Jets, hide the quarterbacks

It will be absorbing to see how abundant access new Jets arch drillmaster Rex Ryan has on his defense. It could be fun watching him bout experience adjoin Ravens abhorrent coordinator Cam Cameron again.

Ravens arch drillmaster John Harbaugh was appropriate beforehand this anniversary if he said this would be a acceptable analysis for his offense. The abhorrent band has been hit harder with injuries, and the assemblage is young. If Ryan is calling the defense, he'll assault the heck out of the Ravens behindhand if it's a preseason bold or not. Ryan can't advice himself if it comes to advancing the quarterback.

It will be aswell absorbing to see how abundant Ravens arresting coordinator Greg Mattison blitzes Jets amateur quarterback Mark Sanchez. He didn't see annihilation like the Ravens aegis at USC.

NFL news: Stroughter Keeps Getting Noticed

Sammie Stroughter, the seventh-round abstract aces from Oregon State, has been a admired of Bucs drillmaster Raheem Morris back the alpha of training camp.

Saturday night he showed anybody abroad why, axis the bold about with a 75-yard alpha acknowledgment and again communicable a 9-yard touchdown canyon from Luke McKown with a minute larboard in the aboriginal half.

"You can't allocution abundant about the adolescent man," Morris said. "He is a seventh-round abstract aces out actuality arena for his life. We account him and he respects this opportunity. We accept a lot of adulation for Sammie."

Stroughter's big return, on which he befuddled off a brace of tackles, came amid through the additional division with the Jaguars leading, 14-3.

Favre's Return to Football Derails Glennon's Dream

Sean Glennon cannot be affronted at Brett Favre. Chances are Favre doesn't apperceive how he ashamed the above Virginia Tech quarterback's dream. It wasn't his fault. He capital to play football afresh and somebody had to go. This is the way of football: one man's befalling is another's demise. If Favre was traveling to be a Minnesota Viking, Glennon would accept to go home.

This was June, aback if television networks camped on the alley alfresco Favre's Mississippi home cat-and-mouse for a arresting that he had accounted his surgically repaired accept advantageous abundant to play able football again. Glennon was the fourth quarterback on the Vikings roster, a continued shot, yet hopeful he had abstruse abundant and approved abundant in the bounce minicamps and OTAs that conceivably the aggregation would accede putting him on its convenance band at the end of training camp. It wasn't abundant as far as dreams go, but Glennon is a realist. He knew as an undrafted quarterback this was apparently the best he could expect.

And it seemed as if the Vikings admired him able-bodied enough. Though the bold was abundant faster than academy and the adjustments were tough, his three months in Minnesota weren't abnormal for a amateur who had never been in the NFL. In fact, he had just accomplished a affair with Kevin Rogers, the team's quarterback coach, traveling over the plan he bare to do in alertness for training affected and was about to arch to the airport to fly home to Centreville if Rick Spielman, the Vikings carnality admiral of amateur cadre asked him to appear to his office.
