While the 2012 NFL draft is still three months away, the growing consensus around the draft community is that some quarterback-needy team will attempt to trade with the St. Louis Rams in an effort to pick Baylor quarterback Robert Griffin III.  Of course, there's still plenty of hoops to jump through before any of the scenarios play out. The NFL Combine has yet to even take place. But for the ...

It can be the best game to watch and the most frustrating, as an All-Star game usually has its good points and its bad ones. This year was no exception. The Senior Bowl gives graduates an opportunity to showcase their talents in front of scouts and coaches and, of course, the media. In most cases, it is a chance to really improve their draft stock. But in recent years, not having the best ...

A miraculous sophomore season earned Tim Tebow first dibs on the Denver Broncos ' starting quarterback gig...heading into training camp, that is. In the meantime, the Broncos' front office has made it clear that they will continue to seek out quality signal-callers—via free agency and the 2012 NFL Draft —to push Tebow and/or replace him if the whole "divine intervention" thing doesn't work out ...

Click here to watch movie clip.   A chick flick in a football article. Have I gone crazy? Maybe.  Hear me out, though.  In the movie scene, Tom (played by Joseph Gordon-Levitt) goes to a party carrying expectations that are never met.

Trent Richardson will be the first running back picked in the 2012 NFL Draft . This is as safe a prediction as Andrew Luck being picked first overall. Who the remaining top backs will be is a little less certain. There are not many big name running backs in the 2012 draft class. It might take three rounds before the first five running backs are taken. This article will predict the landing spot ...

The Detroit Lions have done plenty to address their defensive line in recent drafts, and NFL.com's Bucky Brooks thinks they could go in that direction again in the first round of the 2012 NFL draft, this time with Illinois' Whitney Mercilus . The declining play of Kyle Vanden Bosch and free agent status of Cliff Avril could lead the Lions to make a play for the most productive sack artist in ...

After a 25-20 victory over the Chicago Bears in late November last year, it was unlikely the Oakland Raiders were thinking about their needs in the 2012 NFL draft. The win put them at seven and four on the season and if they simply played around .500 the rest of the way they would make the playoffs.
