Back to that "stable" the brass in Miami think they need to build. ..Isaiah Pead and, once again, resurrecting the should be dead and buried Daniel Thomas. Wtf? And they also poking around Kniles Davis..probably a better option than either of the retreads, yet still a collection of has been and never will bes. Good luck this year Phins fans. .a crappy QB with no leadership, no true RB, and a defense that can't figure out how to utilize the 2nd best defensive player in the league..but hey you got Parker!

Ware and West both getting extensions from Chiefs

Charles will need to show some signs of life in the rehab process in the next couple months or might be time to slide him down the draft board a little.

Being from Florida it's ashamed Miami doesn't have a clue what they are doing. ..... Luckily it appears the Jags and Tampa appear to have a direction. ..... but what do I know - I'm a Ravens fan. ....

Any views on Ridley signing with Detroit?
I don't really see this as anything more than added depth behind Abdullah and Riddick.

Naw, that's about what I see also. Enough of a nuisance to upset Abdullah owners, and possibly make Riddick/Zenner next to worthless (they weren't much higher than that to start with), but that's about it. The guy had a good 20-25 game stretch in a great system, that's all he was

Norman to the Skins.
They were tough at home this past year, usually a sign of a team that could turn the corner.

Cousins pans out, could be a good year in the nation's capital.

Definitely changes the outlook on the Panthers DST..not sure the Skins have done enough for one excellent CB to make them a viable DST though

Garrett Graham signs with Denver. He has past ties to Kubiak, and Denver is in need of a TE. Could be a sleeper?

I always thought that the Texans would move on from Owen Daniels and get Graham or Casey a more prominent role when they had those guys.

Gary Barnidge 2.0?

Cook routinely failed to make the plays as a Ram.
Last time I checked, QBs just throw it, they don't catch it as well.

I doubt he has anything more than 2-3 fantasy relevant weeks, the rest will be 2-3rec for 30-40yds.

I dont care if he makes an impact in the fantasy world. I just need him to be a threat down the seam that the defense has to account for. They dont have to double him by any means but any attention that he gets more than what Rodgers got last year is a win for the Packers and thats all I care about.

2-3rec for 30-40yds......fantasy or real life, that's pretty much the definition of irrelevant.
Curious why defenses would commit more coverage to Cook than they would Rodgers?

Cook has a 16% rate of going over 60 yards in a game over the last FOUR seasons (10 games out of 61)
Something tells me it has just as much to do with him as it did with the Rams/Titans QBs and play calling.

How many dropped TDs/first downs before Aaron Rodgers tells Cook to go sit on the bench?

Don't get me wrong, Cook literally has ALL of the tools to be a successful receiving TE in the NFL, except a pair of hands. I'd be more excited about getting Jordy back in the mix, but maybe McCarthey/A.Rodgers can unlock the potential.
