Packers at Raiders Josh Jones Jersey , Preseason 2018: Second half game updates & discussion The Green Bay Packers and Oakland Raiders are locked in an ugly preseason game this evening. At halftime, the score of the game is 3-3.Both teams had chances to get in the end zone in the first half, with the Packers arguably having the best opportunities. On the team’s first offensive drive, Lance Kendricks was unable to come up with a catchable ball for a touchdown on a throw from Brett Hundley early, forcing the Packers to settle for their field goal. Late in the second quarter, rookie cornerback Josh Jackson intercepted a pass and took it to the house, but the play was called back on a holding penalty by Herb Waters.The Raiders crossed midfield multiple times on their own, but the Packers got an interception from fellow rookie Jaire Alexander and a missed 49-yard field goal attempt from Raiders kicker Mike Nugent that helped keep them to three points.

Brian Spurlock-USA TODAY SportsNo day underscores the hilarity of the basic premise of the NFL combine like the offensive line workouts, watching 300-pound men running around in spandex. While it’s true offensive linemen are rarely going to be running 40 yards down the field or doing the kinds of drills we see in Indianapolis, the movement skills of these dancing bears can be instructive. Who looks like an NFL athlete and who doesn’t? It’s not everything, but it’s not nothing either. Garrett Bradbury jumped out during the athletic testing, posting a 4.95 40 with a 1.74 10-yard split at nearly 6-foot-3 and 306 pounds. He also had one of the better verticals at 31 inches and stellar agility scores with a 4.53 shuttle time to go with a 7.41 3-cone. The North Carolina State lineman can play center or guard in the NFL and his movement skills in the drills emphasize what he shows on tape as a blocker in space. Though the Packers don’t generally draft interior college lineman, Bradbury might be the kind of athlete Green Bay makes an exception to get given how much the front office prizes athletic traits with offensive lineman. Questions about Alabama left tackle Jonah Williams’ arm length didn’t stop there. He ran 5.1 with a 1.77 split at 6-foot-4, 302 pounds which was the good. The bad was bad, with his agility times coming in well below where the Packers prefer with their offensive lineman. He did have one of the best lines of the combine so far so there’s that, but even for someone who might have to be a guard, it wasn’t a great showing. Williams, for his part, says he just wants the chance to compete Jamaal Williams Jersey , wherever it is.“I’ll play anywhere a team wants me to play but I was the best tackle in college football,” Williams said. His salty demeanor shows up on tape too. He’s a fighter. In the afternoon, the running backs took center stage, of particular interest to the Packers who have already met with some of the most intriguing names in the draft including Alabama’s Josh Jacobs, Stanford’s Bryce Love, and Memphis standout Darrell Henderson. Though running back isn’t a pressing need for the Packers, Matt LaFleur’s insistence on balance and sharing the backfield load could very well lead Brian Gutekunst to pick one of these guys in the middle rounds, much like 2017. Jacobs didn’t work out as the consensus RB1, but Green Bay would have to see him take a major tumble to go that route. That makes the workouts for some of the guys projected in the middle rounds more salient for them. Henderson followed a disappoint first 40 with a 4.49 time while FAU back Devin Singletary underwhelmed with a 4.66, though his best attribute is his ability to make guys miss. And while they didn’t work out, nearly every top-tier pass rusher came measured in above where they were projected from a size standpoint. Montez Sweat, at 6-foot-6 Kenny Clark Jersey , 260 pounds with a 7-foot wingspan looks like a 747, while Jachai Polite (258) and Brian Burns (249) added considerable weight to perform in Indianapolis. They haven’t tested out yet and those numbers will be important, but this impressive group cleared the first hurdle with no problems. Tight ends likewise didn’t work out, but a number of players mentioned meetings with the Packers including nearly every top-tier prospect. Noah Fant, Jace Sternberger and Irv Smith Jr. said they would meet with Green Bay. T.J. Hockenson was cagey in not mentioning any specific teams, but it would be easily to infer he’s in the mix as well. With the presence of Jimmy Graham, the Packers need a quality blocking tight end opposite him, preferably a player who can blossom into a more full-time pass catcher once Graham moves on. Matt LaFleur’s offense relies heavily on a solid run game and he’s been unequivocal about believing in sharing carries in the backfield. Aaron Jones and Jamaal Williams present a more-than-solid 1-2 punch, but adding depth and variance of skillset makes sense for the Packers. Finding a back to add into the mix will be on the agenda for Gutekunst, as will picking through a deep group of offensive lineman to solidify the right guard spot. Pairing them with a dual-threat tight end rounds out the run-game rebuild. Friday will go a long way to shaking out who the Packers will be targeting come spring to complete just such an overhaul.

A look at some of the top players remaining heading into Day 2 of the draft."WhiteFanposts Fanshots Sections Detroit Lions NewsDetroit Lions NotesDetroit Lions AnalysisDetroit Lions TransactionsDetroit Lions Game RecapsBreaking NewsIntroducing the 2019 Detroit Lions Draft Class! 脳NFL DraftNFL Draft2019 NFL Draft: Best players remaining for the Lions on Day 2New Theo Riddick Jersey ,139commentsA look at some of the top players remaining heading into Day 2 of the draft.EDTShareTweetShareShare2019 NFL Draft: Best players remaining for the Lions on Day 2Jeff Blake-USA TODAY SportsThis year’s draft blew up in all of our faces immediately when the Oakland Raiders made their first selection and proved that no one really knows anything. Clelin Ferrell went way higher than anyone expected. Montez Sweat fell all the way to the 24th overall pick, and a lot of good players are still available heading into Day 2 of the draft for the Detroit Lions to consider. Let’s take a look at some of the players still available as the Lions wait for their turn.Wide Receiver1. D.K. Metcalf2. Deebo Samuel3. Hakeem Butler4. A.J. Brown5. Terry McLaurinMetcalf falling this far is a bit interesting. It’s not surprising that he dropped a bit, but no one really expected him to still be here on Day 2. Still, this is good news for the Lions if they’re looking to add even more offensive weapons for Stafford. Metcalf is the type of receiver that Stafford loves and would be a nice fit here.Deebo Samuel, one of my favorite fits for the Lions, is also out there and would be great value with the 43rd overall pick. Him and A.J. Brown would be great slot options for the Lions, and if they’re looking for speed, then maybe McLaurin, Parris Campbell or Andy Isabella could be an option for them as well.Cornerback1. Amani Oruwariye2. Greedy Williams3. Byron Murphy4. Justin Layne5. David LongThere are a lot of great options here even outside of the top-five listed above. Only one corner (Deandre Baker) was drafted on the first night and it took all the way up until the 30th overall pick to finally get there. Guys like Oruwariye Tavon Wilson Jersey , Williams, Layne, Long and even Rock Ya-Sin would be nice fits for Patricia’s heavy man-coverage scheme. Murphy might not be a perfect fit, but fits what Quinn is looking for in a defensive playmaker.Offensive Line1. Jawaan Taylor2. Dalton Risner3. Greg Little4. Erik McCoy5. Cody FordSome surprises here as even Tytus Howard from Alabama State went in the first round over Jawaan Taylor or Dalton Risner. Taylor has always been a bit of a project but is extremely tenacious and would be a nice addition for the Lions if he somehow makes it all the way to their second-round pick. The Lions could luck their way into one of the top O-linemen after skipping over the position in the first round.Edge rusher1. Anthony Nelson2. Chase Winovich3. Christian Miller4. Zach Allen5. Oshane XiminesThough the Lions were unfortunate enough to see the likes of Josh Allen go directly ahead of them, there are still some talented edge rushers available. Nelson is a down DE candidate with great athleticism and impressive bend for his size. Winovich is a little smaller, but is a great technician and tested extremely well at the combine.Zach Allen isn’t quite the athlete as the aforementioned prospects, but fits well with what Patricia is looking for and is dominant with his hands and at the point of attack. I could see at least one or two of these guys available when the Lions are on the clock in the second round, and they could really hit a home run with one of these players.Safety1. Chauncey Gardner-Johnson2. Nasir Adderley3. Taylor Rapp4. Juan Thornhill5. Deionte ThompsonSafety may not be the top need for the Lions, but there are a ton of talented players left that would make for great value at the top of the second round or in the third if any of them slip even further. Gardner-Johnson is a very versatile player that can line up in man coverage if you’d like him to Matt Prater Jersey , or he can play deep and use his instincts to create turnovers and make plays. Adderley has great range as a deep safety, while Rapp is likely to stay closer to the line of scrimmage.Thornhill is a hot name after testing elite at the combine, and although Thompson is a victim of others testing well and jumping him on most big boards, he’s still a very good prospect that will warrant consideration early in Day 2.Best of the restDT Trysten HillDT Dre’Mont JonesDT Renell WrenDT Khalen Saunders It looks like the Lions are moving on from Kerry Hyder."As the Detroit Lions try to figure out what they plan on doing at the edge defender position—especially in light of three four defensive ends receiving the franchise tag this week—it has become clear that one player will not be a primary part of their plans. On Monday afternoon, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported that the Lions will not be tendering Kerry Hyder Jr. a restricted free agency deal:Hyder was one of two restricted free agents the Lions had. The other, Romeo Okwara, agreed to a two-year deal with the Lions already. Once that happened, the writing was pretty much on the wall for Hyder, who only played in a total of 153 snaps in 2018 Sam Martin Jersey , despite the injury to Ezekiel Ansah.Although Hyder could theoretically come back, it appears he’s now headed for unrestricted free agency when the new league year starts on March 13. It’s a disappointing end to Hyder’s career in Detroit, after the defensive end continually fought against the odds to make an impact with Detroit. In 2016, Hyder fought his way onto the roster and even notched 8.0 sacks.However, after tearing his achilles in the 2017 preseason and due to the Lions undergoing a complete defensive scheme change, it was time for both sides to move on. Hyder will have to continue his underdog story elsewhere, and we wish Hyder the best and hope that he can thrive elsewhere.

CINCINNATI (AP) — Andy Dalton is out for the rest of the season with an injured thumb on his passing hand Randy Bullock Jersey White , another significant blow to a Bengals team that has fallen apart in the past month.Dalton reached for a fumbled ball and had someone land on his right hand during a 35-20 rout by the Cleveland Browns on Sunday, Cincinnati’s fifth loss in its past six games.Just like that, a season that started with so much promise has turned into a nosedive .Cincinnati (5-6) is without its quarterback or much hope that things will get much better down the stretch. The Bengals put Dalton on injured reserve after he had more tests and medical opinions Monday about the best way to get the thumb healed.Coach Marvin Lewis said Dalton’s thumb is expected to be healed before the start of offseason workouts.It’s the same thumb that Dalton broke while making a tackle on an interception return against the Steelers in 2015. He missed the last three regular-season games and an 18-16 loss to the Steelers in a first-round playoff game at Paul Brown Stadium.Jeff Driskel will start for the Bengals the rest of the way, getting his first chance to lead the team in his third NFL season. The Bengals claimed quarterback Tom Savage off waivers from the San Francisco 49ers as a backup on Monday.“The more you get out there and the more you play well, the more confidence you are going to get in yourself and the people around you,” Driskel said Monday.Dalton completed 62 percent of his passes for 2,566 yards with 21 touchdowns, 11 interceptions and a passer rating of 89.6, the third-highest of his eight-year career.Even with Dalton, the Bengals weren’t doing much except losing.After a 4-1 start that boosted them atop the AFC North, the Bengals have lost five of six and fallen to third place. It’s their worst stretch since 2016 Womens Preston Brown Jersey , when they went 1-5-1 over the middle of the schedule and finished 6-9-1, ending their streak of five straight playoff appearances.After Dalton got hurt on Sunday, Driskel came in and threw his first career touchdown pass and ran for another as the Browns went conservative with a big lead. Cleveland threw the ball only four times in the second half and played softer on defense. Driskel was 17 of 29 for 155 yards.Coordinator Bill Lazor said Monday that Driskel has shown his ability to lead the offense in his limited opportunities.“I think guys see it, and that’s the important part,” Lazor said. “You can’t talk them into feeling good about somebody; they’ve got to earn it. And he’s earned it every day in practice and in the preseason games.”With Driskel running the offense, the Bengals had five false-start penalties — each by a different player — and one more for an illegal shift in the fourth quarter. Driskel thinks that working with the starting offense in practice this week will fix the problems.“The more time you are able to get in and out of the huddle with those guys, hear the cadence, say the cadence, it’s just beneficial,” he said. “I don’t think it helps coming off the bench.”With five games left and Dalton hurt, the Bengals are facing a big challenge.“They’ve got to do it Womens Trey Hopkins Jersey ,” Lewis said. “They’ve got to dig out.”INJURY UPDATECornerback Tony McRae suffered a concussion in the third quarter. The medical staff strapped him to a backboard and wheeled him off the field, concerned he might have a spinal injury. Lewis said Monday that McRae had a concussion but no spinal injury.HUE’S GAME BALLLewis didn’t have anything to say about Browns safety Damarious Randall handing the ball to Hue Jackson after he intercepted one of Dalton’s passes on Sunday.“I don’t want to comment on somebody else’s player,” Lewis said. Last week: 6-6Weeks 1 through 12: 79-81-5Home team shown in bold.

They can’t afford to lose their fourth in a row, and I don’t think they will.Pick: Carolina (-3)Chicago (-3.5) vs. New York Giants It’s Chase Daniel again this week for the Bears. If he plays well again, which team is going to give him a multi-year deal this offseason? Some GM out there just might.Pick: Chicago (-3.5)Houston (-5.5) vs. ClevelandFresh off the Hue Jackson revenge game, the Browns (especially Baker Mayfield) have had plenty to say this week. They’ll want to back it up with another solid performance Joe Mixon Jersey White , so this one stays close. Plus, the Texans are due for a clunker.Pick: Cleveland (+5.5)Denver (-5) vs. Cincinnati Jeff Driskel will get a start in place of Andy Dalton for the Bengals this week, and if he plays well things might start to get a little interesting in Cincinnati. However, the Broncos are quietly playing some good ball. I’ll take them.Pick: Denver (-5)Indianapolis (-4) vs. Jacksonville The Jaguars are a mess.Pick: Indianapolis (-4)Los Angeles Rams (-10) vs. DetroitThe Rams are coming off a bye after that thrilling Monday Night Football victory a few weeks back. The Lions are also coming off a mini-bye of sorts after losing to Chase Daniel on Thanksgiving. Give me the Rams.Pick: Los Angeles Rams (-10)Kansas City (-14) vs. Oakland The Raiders are a mess.Pick: Kansas City (-14)Tennessee (-9.5) vs. New York JetsI know the Jets aren’t good by any means, but 9.5 is a lot here. I think this game gets mucked up and ends up closer than people think.Pick: New York Jets (+9.5)New England (-5) vs. MinnesotaA matchup of two teams that haven’t really been as good as we thought they would be this year. Prediction: Kirk Cousins and Tom Brady both put up some big numbers.Pick: New England (-5)Seattle (-10) vs. San FranciscoThe Seahawks just keep on winning games. It may stop sometime, but not against the 49ers.Pick: Seattle (-10)Pittsburgh (-3) vs. Los Angeles ChargersThe Bolts are still looking for that signature win. There’s no better time to get it than in Pittsburgh on Sunday Night Football.Pick: Los Angeles Chargers (+3)Philadelphia (-6) vs. WashingtonIf the Eagles can’t get on track at home against a Colt McCoy-led Redskins team, they aren’t going to get back on track.Pick: Philadelphia (-6)

When the Texans host the Miami Dolphins on Thursday night it will be a matchup of Houston's quarterback of the future in Deshaun Watson and one of the many failed quarterbacks of the team's past in Brock Osweiler.It will be Osweiler's third straight start in place of Ryan Tannehill Dylan Cole Jersey , who is out with a shoulder injury.Watson is healthy after dealing with lung and rib injuries and helped the team to its fourth straight win last week after an 0-3 start to leave the Texans in first place in the AFC South.The Texans traded up to draft Watson with the 12th overall pick in the 2017 draft to take over at the position after trading Osweiler to Cleveland just one difficult season after signing him to a $72 million contract. Osweiler spent last season with the Broncos before joining the Dolphins this year.Osweiler was supposed to be the answer to Houston's longtime woes at quarterback, but instead ended up being the worst free-agent signing in the franchise's short history. He was benched in December of his first and only season with the Texans when he'd thrown three interceptions before halftime of a game against the Jaguars. Tom Savage started the next two games, but got a concussion early in the second one and the Texans looked to Osweiler again.He played well to help Houston to a win in the wild-card game over Oakland. But his three interceptions doomed the Texans in a 34-16 loss to New England in the next round and he was sent packing a couple of months after that.Osweiler, who is 1-1 as a starter this season, knows everyone will be talking about his time in Houston this week, but insists he isn't worried about it."There's going to be a lot of outside noise trying to make a situation bigger than what it really is; but at the end of the day ... my one season I had in Houston Trevor Daniel Jersey , I look at it as a successful season," he said. "We won our division and we won a playoff game."He said he hasn't spoken to Houston coach Bill O'Brien since the trade, but that he has "great respect" for him and the Texans."There's no hard feelings," Osweiler said. "There's no ill-will ... (I'm) focused just on playing a good football game Thursday and doing whatever this football team needs me to do to help them get a win."Although the Texans went 9-7 in Osweiler's one season, some of his former teammates don't have very fond memories of his time in Houston."He's not here anymore, so I don't really care for him Natrell Jamerson Jersey ," defensive end Jadeveon Clowney said. "We didn't win a lot with him. Trying to go against him now. Try to get after him this week up front make him rattled in the pocket, hope he'll throw a couple of interceptions."While the Texans were certainly disappointed that Osweiler didn't work out after he signed that huge contract, they're happy with how things worked out considering that his failure led to them drafting Watson.The 23-year-old Watson said he didn't know a lot about the revolving door the team had at quarterback in the years before he was drafted. But he does understand how excited fans are to have him and about his potential to be the franchise quarterback this team has long searched for."It's been awesome just to feel that love and just have people consider me as a franchise quarterback and they want me here," he said. "So, I've just got to continue to focus on what I can do to help this team win."Some things to know about the Dolphins-Texans game.EARLY ARRIVALThe Dolphins flew to Houston on Tuesday, a day earlier than usual. Coach Adam Gase decided to tweak the schedule because in the Dolphins' two most recent Thursday night appearances Sammie Coates Jersey , they lost at Cincinnati 22-7 in 2016 and at Baltimore 40-0 last year.Gase conceded he's still trying to figure out the best way to prepare on a short week."I'm the wrong guy to ask on that, considering that I think we've scored seven points and given up 60-something," he said. "We're trying something new this year."MILLER'S MIAMI TIESHouston running back Lamar Miller was born and raised in Miami, went to college at Miami, was drafted by the Dolphins in 2012 and spent his first four seasons there before signing with the Texans before the 2016 season.Miller, who had his first 100-yard rushing game since 2016 last week Aaron Colvin Jersey , said he's trying to approach Thursday as any other game, but admitted it might mean a little bit more because of his history."Of course, I want to do good because I played there and I'm from there," he said. "So, I'm going to try and do whatever I can to put us in the best spot to win this game."KEY MATCHUPMiami cornerback Xavien Howard is likely to spend a lot of time covering DeAndre Hopkins, who is tied for third in the NFL with 707 yards receiving on 47 catches."I see he likes to push off a lot Ka’imi Fairbairn Jersey ," Howard said. "He likes to get physical. That's going to be part of his game."Howard said that's fine with him."Oh, yeah. I'm a physical corner," he said.Howard is tied for the league lead with three interceptions.AP Sports Writer Steven Wine in Miami contributed to this report.

NASHVILLE Jimmy Graham Jersey , Tenn. (AP) — The Green Bay Packers are turning to fast-rising offensive whiz Matt LaFleur to aid Aaron Rodgers and end a two-year absence from the postseason.LaFleur accepted an offer Monday to become the next head coach of the Packers, according to a person familiar with the decision. The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because neither the Packers nor the Titans had announced the decision.The 39-year-old LaFleur spent this season as offensive coordinator for the Titans, his first calling plays in the NFL. He takes over for Mike McCarthy, who was fired during the season following a stunning home loss to Arizona on Dec. 2. Offensive coordinator Joe Philbin went 2-2 to close out the season as the Packers failed to reach the playoffs for the second straight year with a 6-9-1 record that was the second straight under .500 for the storied franchise.He was offensive coordinator with the Los Angeles Rams in 2017, leading a group that paced the NFL in scoring and was 10th in total offense under coach Sean McVay, who called the plays on offense. LaFleur was the quarterbacks coach in Atlanta for two seasons, including when Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan was the NFL MVP in 2016. LaFleur also has coached with Washington and Houston Muhammad Wilkerson Jersey , and was the quarterbacks coach for Notre Dame in 2014.He will be charged with returning the Packers to the playoffs on a regular basis. McCarthy’s tenure of 12-plus seasons was by and large successful, highlighted by the 2010 Super Bowl season and nine playoff appearances.Still, the once potent offense that could make up for other deficiencies slowed in 2018, a tumultuous year that began with Rodgers leading a stirring comeback victory in the opener over the Bears.The two-time NFL MVP returned after halftime from a left knee injury that nagged him the rest of the season.Rodgers’ 62.3 percent completion rate was his lowest since 2015 (60.7) and his 25 touchdown passes were a low for a season in which he played at least 15 games, though so were his two interceptions.Injuries to Randall Cobb and Geronimo Allison forced the Packers to turn to rookies perhaps earlier than expected, though Davante Adams emerged as an elite receiver.The relationship between LaFleur and Rodgers will be closely watched after the sometimes tenuous moments between the star QB and McCarthy. They characterized their relationship as close, but with ups and downs that come with two headstrong competitors who had worked together for more than a dozen years.The Packers reportedly interviewed several candidates with head-coaching experience Marcedes Lewis Jersey , including Philbin, Chuck Pagano, Adam Gase and Jim Caldwell. The instead opted for LaFleur, who had never called plays before this season and until now has never been in charge of an entire roster.It is just one element of an offseason of change ahead in Green Bay.Clay Matthews, one of the last remaining links to Green Bay’s Super Bowl-winning season, is a free agent after finishing with a career-low 3½ sacks in his 10th season with the Packers but the first under the tweaked 3-4 scheme installed by first-year coordinator Mike Pettine.Cobb is also a prominent free agent for Green Bay, and a steady Lance Kendricks Jersey , experienced target for Rodgers — if he returns.The running game could be a strength next season behind Jamaal Williams and Aaron Jones, who led the NFL in yards per carry before suffering a knee injury in mid-December. The coordinator’s job could be in flux, too. Philbin is well-liked by Rodgers and the 16-year NFL coaching veteran and he won respect from players for his even-keeled and straightforward demeanor in the transition following McCarthy’s firing.Pettine’s defense showed flashes in his first year on the job. First-round draft pick Jaire Alexander displayed the potential of playing like the top cornerback the Packers desperately need. Injuries struck the defensive line, which was one of the team’s strengths coming into the season, and the Packers lacked a consistent rush at outside linebacker outside of surprise sacks leader Kyler Fackrell (10½).Tennessee has changes coming, too. The Titans went 9-7 and missed the playoffs, ending the season ranked 27th in scoring and 25th in total offense while injuries took a toll. Quarterback Marcus Mariota will soon be working with his fourth offensive coordinator in five seasons. 49ers run game coordinator Mike McDaniel is drawing interest from other teams Davon House Jersey , but it doesn’t appear he’ll be leaving Kyle Shanahan’s staff at this point.Tom Pelissero of NFL Media reports that the Cardinals and Packers have inquired about interviewing McDaniel about their offensive coordinator vacancies. Per the report, the 49ers are not “inclined” to grant permission for McDaniel to speak to the other teams at this point.McDaniel has worked with Shanahan for a long time. He was an offensive assistant for the Texans while Shanahan was on Gary Kubiak’s staff and then worked with his current boss in Washington, Cleveland and Atlanta before joining him with the 49ers.The Cardinals have also been linked to former Giants head coach Ben McAdoo, former Falcons offensive coordinator Steve Sarkisian and Texas State head coach Jake Spavital in their hunt for coaches to join Kliff Kingsbury’s staff. There’s been less word about new coaches on Green Bay’s radar than there has been about 2018 assistants who will be leaving the team.

The Lions have their nickel cornerback of the future http://www.lionslockerroom.com/authentic-tracy-walker-jersey , and that’s a very good thing."WhiteFanposts Fanshots Sections Detroit Lions NewsDetroit Lions NotesDetroit Lions AnalysisDetroit Lions TransactionsDetroit Lions Game RecapsBreaking NewsIntroducing the 2019 Detroit Lions Draft Class! 脳NFL Free AgencyDetroit Lions AnalysisDetroit Lions Free AgencyLions free agency grade: Breaking down the Justin Coleman signingNew,56commentsThe Lions have their nickel cornerback of the future, and that’s a very good thing. EDTShareTweetShareShareLions free agency grade: Breaking down the Justin Coleman signingKirby Lee-USA TODAY SportsWhen labeling the Detroit Lions’ needs heading into free agency, cornerback was high atop most people’s list. When the Lions released Nevin Lawson, it officially jumped to a top-five need. However, when dreaming up free agency targets for Detroit, most people focused on outside cornerback players. So when the Lions went out on Day 1 and agreed to terms with nickel cornerback Justin Coleman, there was a little bit of confusion. Detroit just spent $9 million a year on a cornerback, and CB2 is still as big of a need as ever. What gives?Let’s take a closer look at the addition and how Coleman fits on the team.Positional needBelieve it or not, nickel corner was just as big of a need for Detroit as outside corner is. With teams going three wide more and more often in the NFL these days, the Lions are likely to have at least five defensive backs on the field around 70-80 percent of the time. Last year, the Lions didn’t truly have a nickel corner on their roster. While the common belief was that Lawson was their No. 2 outside cornerback Miles Killebrew Jersey White , no defensive back played more in the slot than Lawson, with nearly 40 percent of his snaps coming from that position. The rest of the nickel snaps came from a mixture of Darius Slay, DeShawn Shead, Quandre Diggs and Teez Tabor, among other—none of which had more than 90 snaps from the position. And how did that lineup perform in 2018? Not well:But with Coleman now aboard, the Lions don’t have to continually search for their nickel cornerback. They have one. And while Coleman doesn’t provide a ton of versatility (he played 74 percent of his snaps in the slot last year), he will assume one of the toughest jobs in the secondary and allow his teammates like Darius Slay to do what they do best—dominate the edges.TalentThere’s no doubt that Coleman excels as a nickel cornerback. Let’s just drop in a few stats from his past two years with the Seattle Seahawks:Did not allow a touchdown from the slot during the entire 2018 season per Next Gen Stats3rd-best PFF coverage grade from the slot since 2017Tied for 12th in yards allowed per coverage snap, per PFFAnd consider this: Per SB Nation, the Lions were dead last in the league last year, allowing 9.52 yards per attempt out of the slot. Justin Coleman allowed just 5.21 yards per attempt. If there’s a weakness to Coleman’s game, it’s in defending the run. Coleman has had consistent tackling struggles throughout his career, and his 5-foot-11 Womens Jalen Reeves-Maybin Jersey , 190 pound frame makes him an easy target to block out of a play.Seahawks point of viewIt’s always a good indication of how good a signing is by looking at the reaction of the fanbase and media from his former team. Here’s a smattering of what Seahawks fans were saying on Monday.From our friends at Field Gulls:Beat writers: And in Gregg Bell’s column: ValueThis is where the signing of Coleman will be debated: Is a nickel cornerback worth $9 million a year? There’s no doubt that teams are realizing just how important of a position nickel corner is, not just because they are starting to play more in every game, but because just how difficult it is to find talent at that specific position. That being said, would the Lions have been better off spending a couple more million per year? Kareem Jackson got a three-year deal at $11 million per year, and Ronaldy Darby is expected to get even more. It’s hard to put an exact number on the value of a talented nickel cornerback, but the Lions certainly made a statement about their priorities by making Coleman the highest-paid player at the position.OverallThis was an aggressive move by Bob Quinn, and one that will probably go underappreciated by those in the national media. Nickel corner is an underrated need, and with now two cornerbacks that are playing at the top of their game, the Lions can get creative with their coverage to help compensate for their need at the second outside corner position. The price was high, but the need was just as high. I like this move a lot and think it makes more sense that breaking the bank on an outside cornerback—since it helped paved the way to sign a guy like Trey Flowers.Grade: A- Kenny Golladay is making quite an impression on his fellow receivers in Detroit.The second-year wideout had four catches for 98 yards and a touchdown Sunday in the Lions‘ 31-23 victory over Green Bay. He also had a touchdown called back because of a penalty.Golladay has given Detroit another strong receiving threat along with Golden Tate and Marvin Jones 鈥?and at this point, it’s hard to tell who the defense should be most concerned with.“Having Kenny play the way he’s been playing since he came on the team has been huge. He’s opened it up for everybody,” Tate said. “Now we have a bunch of guys who can make plays.”The Lions drafted Golladay in the third round last year out of Northern Illinois Theo Riddick Jersey White , and he got off to quite a start, catching two touchdown passes in his first game .However, he missed five games with hamstring issues and finished the season with only 28 catches.Still, the potential was there, and this year the 6-foot-4 Golladay has nearly matched that reception total already. He has 27 catches for 428 yards. On the Lions, only Tate is ahead of him in those categories.“He’s killing it,” Jones said. “He’s doing a great job, and it’s fun to see.”Golladay has been productive this season, and he’s also been consistent. He caught seven passes for 114 yards in the season opener against the Jets and was one of the very few bright spots for Detroit in that loss. He’s had at least four receptions in all five games.The 5-foot-10 Tate is a dependable veteran who can excel after the catch. Both he and the 6-foot-2 Jones had more than 1,000 yards receiving last season. But it’s hard not to notice Golladay’s physical ability and wonder if Detroit’s passing game could be even better as he becomes a bigger part of it.“He’s obviously a big kid, physical kid, can run Womens Damon Harrison Jersey , wants to be a really good player,” quarterback Matthew Stafford said after the game against Green Bay.“Smart, has dialogue with me. All of our guys do, really, which is great. What they’re seeing out there, what they think we can do 鈥?so, I’m just happy for our team to get a win. Obviously happy for Kenny. He had a good one.”Golladay’s 46-yard touchdown catch in the first quarter was nullified by an illegal use of hands penalty on a Detroit lineman. Later that period, Stafford and Golladay connected again for a 60-yard gain that set up a touchdown.Golladay caught a 5-yard scoring pass in the fourth quarter that put the Lions up 31-14.“Whenever my number is called, I’m just trying to make the play,” Golladay said. “So if they want to throw it to me five times or four times a game or nine times a game, I just want to make all the plays.”As he becomes more of an established target, Golladay may have to deal with more attention from opposing defenses. That’s a sign of respect Womens Sam Martin Jersey , of course, and Lions coach Matt Patricia likes what he sees so far.“There’s a lot of different coverages that are coming his way, there’s a lot of different fronts, doubles, bracket-type situations that he’s running into. … The great part about it is just his competitiveness overall,” Patricia said.“Doing the details, doing the little things 鈥?the blocking. Maybe some of the plays where he may draw a little bit more attention and free somebody else up. Those are big responsibilities in the offense and kind of help everything fit together for all the guys on the field.”NOTES: DE Ziggy Ansah, back with the Lions this season on the franchise tag, has missed the past four games with a shoulder injury. Patricia did not appreciate a question Monday about whether Ansah’s contract status might be affecting his return to the field. “The guy’s trying every single day to get back out there. So, that’s what it is. Don’t make it anything more than that,” Patricia said.___

The Minnesota Vikings have agreed to terms on a five-year contract extension with Danielle Hunter http://www.thebengalslockerroom.com/authentic-mark-walton-jersey , making him one of the top 10 highest-paid defensive ends in the NFL while securing another core player before he could reach free agency.The deal, which was done on Wednesday, is worth up to $72 million, according to a person with knowledge of the contract who spoke on condition of anonymity because the terms weren't disclosed by the team.The deal includes $40 million in guaranteed money, with a $15 million signing bonus. The annual average worth is more than $14 million, on par with fellow Vikings defensive end Everson Griffen."I had to get this out of the way," Hunter said, acknowledging relief to have signed before training camp. "I didn't want to be bothered by anything."Hunter has 25陆 sacks, three forced fumbles and two recovered fumbles in three seasons, after being drafted in the third round in 2015 out of LSU. Still only 23 years old, Hunter was a top priority to retain at a premium position. Griffen is 30, and primary backup Brian Robison is 35."Just looking forward to getting him locked in and what he's going to continue to bring not only to this defense and this football team, but also the type of character that he brings Womens Clint Boling Jersey ," general manager Rick Spielman said.Over those past three seasons, Hunter and Griffen have combined for 57 sacks, the second most by a pair of teammates in the league behind Geno Atkins and Carlos Dunlap of the Cincinnati Bengals (58).The pass rush and run defense provided by these bookends has been a significant part of coach Mike Zimmer's unit that gave up the fewest points and yards in the NFL last season."We build a bond together on defense," Hunter said. "We go out there, we know we're brothers. We fight together. We do our assignments. On and off the field we're really, really close.Hunter was third in the NFL with 12陆 sacks in 2016, the most by a defensive end. Born in Jamaica and raised just outside of Houston, the 6-foot-5, 252-pound Hunter was a classic late bloomer the Vikings targeted with confidence he'd continue to develop with the right coaching to complement his measurable physical skills. Spielman and his scouts have been proven right with that pick."I kind of came in with the mindset of just playing football. I had a whole bunch of people in front of me, older guys that were able to show me the way, good coaches and a good coaching staff," Hunter said. "The only thing I could do is just come in here and focus and play football."The Vikings extended middle linebacker Eric Kendricks earlier this offseason. Outside linebacker Anthony Barr and wide receiver Stefon Diggs are their other two standouts on expiring contracts, with space under the salary cap dwindling. Signing both of them to new long-term deals might not be possible.They're plenty happy to at least have Hunter around well into the next decade Tyler Boyd Jersey White , though. According to statistics compiled by Vikings coaches, Hunter also has 125 quarterback hurries and 147 total tackles. He has never missed an NFL game to injury, with his only two absences coming in 2015 when he was on the inactive list in the first month of his rookie year."It's all about keep continuing to improve my game. I've got to go out there and do what the coaches tell me to do. Now that I have this I can't relax," Hunter said. "I have to keep pounding and grinding." The Bengals surprised everyone with an early selection of a tight end. However, the pick makes a lot of sense once you examine it."WhiteFanposts Fanshots Sections #BITESIZEFilm RoomRoster Transactions and ContractsOrange & Black InsiderSalary Cap And CBABreaking down the Bengals’ selection of Drew SampleNew,61commentsThe Bengals surprised everyone with an early selection of a tight end. However, the pick makes a lot of sense once you examine it. EDTShareTweetShareShareBreaking down the Bengals’ selection of Drew SampleIn some ways, folks expected the Bengals to trade back from their No. 42 spot in the second round. Many solid players were left on the board as their time approached, but some were plucked in picks right before theirs, so Zac Taylor and Co. decided to trade back and gain both a fourth-round and sixth-round selection. Cincinnati went with the big and athletic tight end, Drew Sample from the University of Washington. At 6’5” and 255 pounds, Sample should provide a great red zone weapon for Andy Dalton. What he brings to the BengalsSize: As mentioned above, Sample has good size for the position in the NFL. Dalton’s strengths are in the short and intermediate passing game. It’s a big reason as to why Tyler Eifert has had some big numbers with Dalton http://www.thebengalslockerroom.com/authentic-joe-mixon-jersey , when healthy. The Rams didn’t overly-use tight ends in their offensive system with Taylor, but they were part of the massive production. With Pittsburgh and Cleveland grabbing talented defenders in the early rounds, a big target in the passing game should negate some of those matchup issues. Upside: After the Bengals made the pick of Sample, NFL Network’s Daniel Jeremiah said that teams liked Sample more than what his production would indicate. Sample had just three touchdowns last year, but a lot of folks think his best football is in front of him. Cincinnati re-signed both Eifert and C.J. Uzomah to varying deals this offseason, but there are questions with both players. Sample is in the fold for the next four years, surpassing both of the deals by those veterans. Why the Bengals picked SampleRed zone effectiveness: Cincinnati’s offense needs to score more touchdowns, despite who is under center. When Eifert, Tyler Kroft and A.J. Green were injured last year, Cincinnati only had Uzomah as a big target in those critical short-yardage situations. Sample is huge, has a nice catch radius and most compare him to Jack Doyle. If Cincinnati gets that kind of production from him out of the second round, while still being able to spread the ball around to other weapons, they will be happy. Third downs: Given the massive amount of struggles by the Bengals’ defense last year Jessie Bates III Jersey White , one would be inclined to think that the Bengals would have gone with defensive line or linebacker in the second round. However, part of the reason why Cincinnati’s defense struggled, aside from poor coaching and injuries, is the ineffectiveness of the 2018 offense. On many occasions, the Bengals’ offense forced the defense right back on the field after a stop because of ineffectiveness. Methodically moving the chains via big targets like Sample begins to balance the scales without even taking a defensive player. Uncertainty at the position group: Uzomah and Eifert are athletic and have had moments of greatness, but both have suffered injuries. And, when they’ve missed time, the entire team has felt the impact. While you don’t want to use a second-round pick on a third rotational option, it seems as if the Bengals have a solid plan for Sample. He is versatile and could even be used as a potential H-Back and nice outlet. Blocking: Even though the tight end position has evolved in recent years, blocking off of the edge is still at a premium. Sample is known as one of the best blockers in this year’s class.

Free agency begins in earnest today around the NFL — the league opens up its negotiating period at 12 noon Eastern, allowing agents for unrestricted free agents to begin talking to other NFL teams about their clients. While no deals can be signed and no visits taken until after 4:00 PM on Wednesday, expect to hear plenty of reports of handshake agreements taking place in the intervening time.For the Green Bay Packers, reports and rumors are swirling. General manager Brian Gutekunst will have plenty of options on this year’s market for positions of need, and he currently has about $35 million in salary cap space to work with. That could increase if the team cuts or renegotiates contracts with Jimmy Graham and/or Nick Perry, however, and the latter still appears to be a serious candidate to get the axe if he is not willing to take a pay cut.Of course, pass-rushers and safeties are two of the biggest positions to focus on. They’re both spots where there are some intriguing free-agent options, but on the edge the prices appear to be much higher for the mid-level players than at safety.

The two teams squaring off in Minnesota on Sunday will each be missing a key receiver Trey Flowers Jersey , for very different reasons. The Lions have traded Golden Tate, and the Vikings are expected to deactivate Stefon Diggs.Diggs suffered a rib injury against the Saints last Sunday night (he seemed to grab at his lower chest after a catch late in the first half), and even though Diggs has said he’ll play on Sunday, multiple reports indicate that he won’t. The Vikings strongly hinted at the move by activating receiver Chad Beebe, the son of ’90s-era speedster Don Beebe, on Saturday.Diggs finished Sunday night’s game with 10 catches for 119 yards Levine Toilolo Jersey White , his third 100-yard game of the year. For the season, he has 58 catches for 587 yards and four touchdowns.His absence will give players like Laquon Treadwell, Aldrick Robinson, and Brandon Zylstra more opportunities. Beebe, who also would become the fifth receiver on the 46-man game-day roster, also could potentially make a contribution. The Lions have to be feeling like November has come after their Sunday loss to the Vikings.

He has a sack in four of his past five at home. Rookie linebacker Breeland Speaks had his first-career sack in Week 6. So if the deadline imposed by quarterback Russell Wilson on the Seahawks comes and goes without a new contract, what happens next?Here’s one thing that should happen: Other teams without short-list franchise quarterbacks should call the Seahawks to inquire regarding what it would take to get Wilson via trade.That doesn’t mean he will be or should be traded. It means that, in the never-ending process of due diligence done to determine whether a team can be upgraded via the presence of a new player, it makes sense to make the call and see what it would take to get Wilson now.It also would make sense to find out what Wilson would want from a team other than the Seahawks. There’s a sense that he’s driving a hard bargain with the Seahawks so that he can get to another team Cordy Glenn Jersey , and that with another team he’d want less than what he wants from the Seahawks. Because, however, agent Mark Rodgers represents only one NFL player, getting information about Wilson’s expectations without committing an easily detectable violation of the tampering rules will be difficult to do.If Wilson were represented by an agent with clients on every team, any team could contact officially Wilson’s agent about a player on that team, and then unofficially ask about Wilson. With Rodgers having no other clients, there’s no reason for any team to talk to him, other than to talk about Wilson.Thus, if a trade has any chance of happening, the Seahawks at some point would have to grant permission to Wilson and Rodgers to speak to other teams. Without a chance to negotiate a long-term deal with Wilson, the chances of a trade would be minimal Randy Bullock Jersey , since the new team would be getting him for one year at $17 million, plus the prospect of a year-to-year franchise tag that starts at $30.34 million for 2020, continues at $36.4 million for 2021, and ends at $52.43 million for 2022.Still, plenty of teams should at least inquire about Wilson. From the Dolphins to the Bengals to the Titans to the Chargers to the Raiders to the Broncos to the Giants to Washington to the Lions to the Cardinals to maybe a few others, adding Wilson could dramatically change their prospects, in 2019 and beyond.

CDTShareTweetShareShare2019 NFL Free Agency News: Houston Texans Sign Matt KalilKim Klement-USA TODAY SportsThe Houston Texans entered free agency with a bunch of money and a bunch of offensive line needs. They sat on their dollars and watched as Trent Brown and Ja’Wuan James were given obscene amounts of dollars to go to Oakland and Denver, respectively. This was the right decision. I admired the decision. Overpaying for mediocre players is how teams stifle their performance and obliterate their cap space. Yet the Texans still need competition at the tackle position at a bare minimum. If a plug and play starter couldn’t be found on a contract that made sense, they’d have to search under rocks to find someone.Anyone. Houston’s tackles were Juli’en Davenport and Seantrel Henderson a day ago. Then yesterday went flying by amd the Texans signed 29 year old Matt Kalil to a one-year contract. Kalil missed all of last season with a knee injury. The Panthers signed him to a five-year Womens D.J. Reader Jersey , $55 million contract after his rookie contract ended with the Vikings. In Carolina, the Panthers were stuck doing the same things the Texans did last season with cheap tackles; they were chipping, sliding, and helping Kalil and Mike Remmers in pass protection to make up for Kalil’s weak hands and Remmers’s slow feet. This is exactly what you can’t do when you pay a tackle $11 million a year. Kalil should provide competition at left tackle competition. But he hasn’t been good since his rookie year, and at this point Womens Tashaun Gipson Jersey , isn’t even as good as ‘I know I’m starting at left tackle’ Juli’en Davenport. With Kalil, Davenport, and Henderson on the roster, look for Houston to draft a tackle in the first or second round of the 2019 NFL Draft and then watch these four tear each other apart for September playing time. The season is over and it’s all a fog. That time between picking up the pieces and sifting through the piles of cremains, and preparing for future arm chair scouting Will Fuller V Jersey White , and I wish I was a general manager mangering. Everything right now is about getting in place. Putting the pieces together. Setting down the foundation. And gathering information for how teams will look to improve this offseason or continue their rebuild. Part of the foundation are ESPN’s way too early Power Rankings. A chance to see where everything stands before the offseason begins. They have Houston ninth. This is what they said:In between Seattle and Baltimore is Houston. I’m fine with this. This is a good spot for where they stand now. Yet, it will be interesting to see how far they can climb if they can add another interior pass rusher, Will Fuller V insurance, overhaul the secondary, and add offensive line competition. Free agency begins in a month and a half. The draft will be a month and a half after that. Until then we play make believe Whitney Mercilus Jersey White , and see where the ninth best team in football can improve.

Either Terry McLaurin or Parris Campbell would fit the Packers nicely in round two or three."WhiteFanposts Fanshots Sections The APC PodcastPackers Film RoomFantasy Football AdviceCDTShareTweetShareSharePackers NFL Draft 2019: Two Ohio State receivers project as day-two targetsGary A. Vasquez-USA TODAY SportsUnder Ted Thompson Bart Starr Jersey White , the Green Bay Packers loved drafting wide receivers on day two of the NFL Draft. Thompson hit on these players with regularity, too; Greg Jennings, James Jones, Jordy Nelson, Randall Cobb, and Davante Adams were all second- or third-round draft picks who went on to have long, productive careers with the Packers. Adams is now unquestionably one of the NFL’s ten best wide receivers, with a legitimate argument to be made for him as a top-five player at the position.In 2018, Brian Gutekunst preferred to wait until the later rounds of his first draft to address the position, drafting three players between rounds four and six. However, all were size-speed players who present matchup problems for defenses.This spring, however, the Packers may go back to the day-two well, with numerous intriguing players projecting to go in the second or third rounds. Interestingly, two players who lined up together in Columbus should be under consideration for Gutekunst and company, as both project as good fits in Green Bay.Parris Campbell and Terry McLaurin will be connected throughout this draft process. The two players arrived at Ohio State one year apart, but a redshirt for Campbell resulted in both earning their first significant playing time as sophomores in 2016. By the 2018 season, each was a key cog in the Buckeyes’ offensive attack Corey Linsley Jersey , which saw quarterback Dwayne Haskins set conference records with his arm.Last fall, Campbell was the offense’s Swiss Army Knife. Lining up in the slot, the backfield, and practically everywhere else, the goal was simple: get the ball in his hands and let him make something happen. Campbell’s elite speed (4.31 seconds in the 40 at the Combine) and change-of-direction ability (position-best 4.03 in the short shuttle) led to a highly productive season. Campbell’s 90 receptions went for over 1,000 yards, as he averaged 11.8 yards per catch despite a high number of those “receptions” essentially coming on jet sweeps. Campbell also brings return ability to the NFL, having served as Ohio State’s primary kickoff returner in 2016 and pitching in occasionally in 2017. McLaurin, on the other hand, rotated heavily with a host of talented receivers, many of whom will be future NFL Draft picks. However, his 35 receptions displayed big-play ability, as he averaged 20 yards per catch on those plays. Like Campbell, McLaurin contributed on special teams as well, but more so on coverage teams rather than with the ball in his hands.Check out this compilation of McLaurin’s plays as a punt gunner:For the Packers, who very much have an athletic “type” for their receivers since Thompson took over as GM, both players check all the boxes. They’re both just over six feet tall, each weighs between 205 and 210 pounds Kenny Clark Jersey White , and their speed and agility times are far better than the team’s typical requirements. Take a look:Parris Campbell: 5-foot-11 7/8, 205 pounds, 4.31 forty, 4.03 short shuttle (no 3-cone)Terry McLaurin: 6-foot-0 1/8, 208 pounds, 4.35 forty, 4.15 short shuttle, 7.01 3-coneThe differences between the two will make one or the other more appealing targets to different teams, based on what said teams are looking for. Campbell is ultimately the more dynamic athlete, but he probably needs his offensive scheme to help him be productive. McLaurin is a more effective route-runner and can create space on his own. In short, Campbell is the better player after the catch, while McLaurin is better before it.Still, either one looks to be a solid fit for the Packers, who appear to be looking for a slot receiver this spring after Randall Cobb’s departure. Although Equanimeous St. Brown provided some nice reps on the inside and Jimmy Graham projects to get significant snaps split out in the slot as well, the team could use one of these smaller (but not too small) receivers to help attack the middle of the field. Don’t be surprised if one or the other trades in his scarlet and gray for green and gold on April 26th.Cheese Curds, 8/2: Packers will need to adjust to new helmet rules Every time the NFL changes a rule, debate ensues and there is almost always never the same interpretation of it.That said, out of all the rule changes the league has made in the past few years Womens JK Scott Jersey , the new helmet contact rule for 2018 just might be the craziest of them all.Simply put, no player can strike another player anywhere on the body in a way that contact was initiated with the helmet. In the high speed world of the NFL, this potentially could create all sorts of issues. The game moves so fast that officials may need to make snap judgement calls on some plays and those could easily affect the outcome of a game.There’s also how to properly coach defensive players. While helmet-to-helmet hits have been outlawed for awhile, this alters the method in which some players are used to tackling. They’re not necessarily acting like a spear, but it will force them to adjust the angle at which they tackle.The Packers of course have to learn this new rule all while learning a new defense thanks to the hire of Mike Pettine as defensive coordinator.Can teams adapt? It remains to be seen, but this rule has the potential to wreak a lot of havoc even though it has good intentions in regards to player safety. You can read more on the new helmet rule and how the Packers are handling it plus why the tight end position might really be a strength for the Green Bay in today’s cheese curds.Packers raking head-on approach to new helmet rules—PackersNews.comThe intentions are noble here and there will be an adjustment period but what will the long-term impact of this rule be? Hopefully it doesn’t swing any games against the Packers (or anyone for that matter). Mike Pettine doesn’t rule out adding veteran ILB—Packers WireGM Brian Gutekunst said the team would give the young players a chance in the wake of losing Jake Ryan to a torn ACL, but Pettine didn’t rule out bringing a veteran in. Before anyone yells about them not being on the same page, what else what Gutekunst supposed to say? “No we don’t like who we have so yes we’ll bring in a veteran?” Trust the process, folks. If the younger players struggle, Gutekunst will pull the trigger and it will be faster than Ted Thompson.Quiet-but-ready rookie Oren Burks vows he will not throw away his shot with Packers—Wisconsin State JournalBurks deserves a shot. He was a third round pick, so he clearly has some talent. He only met with the Packers before the draft and was happy to hear his name called by the same team. Burke thought he’d get his shot but maybe not this soon. Now the quiet rookie is on center stage and all eyes are on him.Philbin: ‘Good Problem’ to have so many veteran tight ends—Packers.comTight end was supposed to be a strong point last year too until Martellus Bennett’s mishap basically wrecked it.Thankfully, Jimmy Graham seems above that kind of behavior and the position should actually be a strength this season.Ohio State places Urban Meyer on administrative leave—NFL.comSince a big chunk of Packers fans are also Wisconsin Badgers fans, this news could potentially alter the outcome of the Big Ten this season. If Meyer is out for good, the path to the college football playoff might have just gotten a little clearer for the Badgers.

The bye week is bittersweet for Detroit Lions fans. On one hand Womens Sylvester Williams Jersey , we get to watch football stress-free and don’t need to worry about the devastating feeling of a Lions loss. On the other hand, the entire league can be a bit boring without the Lions. NFL football is a very good product, but without that passionate connection to a team, there’s definitely something missing.But for those of you that aren’t taking the week off with the Lions, there’s an... okay set of game for Week 6. So today’s Question of the Day:What is the most interesting game on the slate for Week 6?My answer: Normally, I would pick an NFC game, since it would have some sort of implications for the Lions, but the slate of games leave much to be desired. Falcons-Buccaneers is probably the best of the slate Youth Austin Bryant Jersey , but both teams are probably pretty bad right now. Elsewhere in the NFC we’ve got Carolina-Washington, which could be alright.But the real action is in the AFC. Chiefs-Patriots to finish the night could be a really fun game, as could the interconference game between the Jaguars and the Cowboys. Overall, though, it’s just not that great of a matchup week, which means most of Sunday will probably be spent on the Red Zone channel.Your turn.Tweets from https://twitter.com/PrideOfDetroit/lists/lions-coverage At this point in the NFL season, it’s still really hard to make sense of the league. Teams are still playing wildly inconsistent week-to-week and only a few have truly emerged as contenders or pretenders. This isn’t all that abnormal. Just ask Patriots coach Bill Belichick, who claims you don’t really even know your own team until halfway through the season. “Midseason to me is always about the time where I think you kind of know what you have Womens Christian Jones Jersey ,” Belichick said back in 2017. “September, I think we’re all trying to figure out a little bit. You go into the season thinking one thing and then after you play three or four games, a lot of time you’re not as good at some things as you thought you were or maybe you’re better at some other things than you might have thought you were. Maybe some guys are performing higher, some guys lower, whatever. It takes a little while to find that equilibrium.”The Lions certainly qualify for that identity crisis. Through five games, they’ve beaten Belichick’s Patriots and their division rival Packers, but also dropped games to the Jets, 49ers and Cowboys. They’re a game out of first place in the division but also all alone in last place. So this week Calvin Johnson Jersey White , we asked fans to try and assess the team at their bye week—a tough task for even the people within the organization. Will this 2-3 Lions team make the postseason? You all answered with the proper indecision:It’s very easy to see both sides of the equation here. On the pro-playoffs side, you have the fact that the Lions have already beaten two very competitive teams. They are also playing in a division that has three other flawed teams. Each NFC North team has at least one bad loss on their resume and clear weakness on their roster. At this point, it truly feels like anyone’s division.On the other hand, the Lions’ defense is currently playing like one of the worst in the league, and just about every stat will corroborate that. They’re ranked 30th in DVOA, and they’ve also dropped a couple games they had no business losing if they’re going to truly be a contender. So who are these Lions and will they make the postseason this year? As Belichick noted, we probably won’t know for a couple of week, but expect some clarity soon Kerryon Johnson Jersey White , because trouble is coming:Want to be a part of these weekly surveys?

Russo-USA TODAY SportsThe 2019 draft class is chalk full of defensive linemen, but the class might have just gotten a little weaker.Montez Sweat, a defensive end out of Mississippi State, recently received some bad news following a physical.According to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network, “without getting too technical...he has an enlarged heart.”According to Pelissero, there are no other NFL players with this condition Womens Tyler Eifert Jersey , but there are some European soccer players that have overcome it and found a way to play.There would always be the risk that something could go wrong, but those risks might be minimized if teams take certain precautions during games and practices.“Some more progressive teams,” said Pelissero, “some more progressive doctors have spoken with cardiologists and gotten comfortable with the idea that Montez Sweat would be able to play with this.”While some teams are still comfortable with Sweat, some teams have taken him off their boards.The Bengals have already hosted Sweat, but there is still no word yet on whether or not they are still interested. However Womens Giovani Bernard Jersey , if he falls to the Bengals, it would create an interesting discussion.
