NFL Thread (2005/06 season)

[Tom]

there was **** loads about it on the last game of the season on Sky Sports. Apparently the person behind it (at NFL Europe) is 80% sure.

 

[Deisler]

Well thay played one last year in Mexico (Cardinals VS 49rs) so i dont see why they should bypass europe.

 

[ManU2000]

yeah i know yeah when do u think it would be annouced a ruff idea will it be with the fixtures

Yeah, the fixtures are usually announced in May or June so if a game is played in London, you should know by then.

 

[Chacarita Juniors]

Good news, bad news.

Chargers sign Marlon McCree to a (five-year, $16 million) dollar contract.

Drew Brees visited with New Orleans Saints and the Miami Dolphins today.

If he signs, it was great having you Drew.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

Edgerrin James signed with the Cardinals today. That Cardinals offense is going to be SICK! Because everything I'm hearing is that they will pick Vernon Davis the Tight End out of Maryland, who incidentally just had one of the best combines in the history of the world.

He ran a 4.34 40 didn't he? That's just fucking ridiculous for a tight end.

Apparently, we could have a deal for Dante Culpepper sooner than later. Meh, him reuniting with Moss would be fun to watch.

 

[Chacarita Juniors]

Dante Culpepper gets traded to the Dolphins. Haha Raiders!
Drew Brees joins the NO Saints. A shake-up in the draft...

 

[Tom]

Mike Anderson has gone to the Ravens, interesting move from the Broncos...

 

[ManU2000]

Dante Culpepper gets traded to the Dolphins. Haha Raiders!

While the possibility of seeing Dante and Moss play together would have been good, considering how bad their relationship went after Moss left Minnesota, this was probably for the best.

I keep hearing about with how Vince Young's stock keeps dropping and that we might draft him should he drop to us. He has so many question marks right now that it would be a huge risk if we took him. I wouldn't mind Cutler to be honest but we might have to trade up to get him.

Yeah, here was Vernon Davis' combine

6 foot 3 inches, 263 lbs, 33 225 lb bench reps, 4.38 40, 42 inch vert

He's the size of a speed defensive end, the strength of a defensive tackle, the speed of a fast reciever, and the vertical of a first round cornerback. If you guys think Gates and Gonzalez are good, just wait until Vernon Davis gets his career off the ground.

 

[Chacarita Juniors]

Beto's Raiders just signed Aaron Brooks...peep this Beto.

2003-04 New Orleans 16 games - 88.8 QB rating
2004-05 New Orleans 16 games - 79.5 QB rating
2005-06 New Orleans 13 games - 70.0 QB rating

Sorry man, I'm just trying to make myself feel better for having a 'rookie' QB.

Keyshawn Johnson to the PANTHERS....I heard some things about Keyshawn, most of them bad...hopefully he plays like he did at the Jets.

 

[newbie original]

Mike Anderson has gone to the Ravens, interesting move from the Broncos...

They churn out running backs on a yearly basis...the system is in place for any running back to succeed...Davis, Olandis Gary, Clinton Portis, Tatum Bell, Mike Anderson and the other guy (kid from Oklahoma, while he was (is?) at Denver).

I definitely knew we were gonna go for Keyshawn. He's the second wide receiver that we have been sorely missing. If he can get us 6 to 7 TD's this coming season then we can consider this a GREAT deal for the Panthers (if Smith continues to play out of his mind too). I'm looking forward to seeing them two out there on the field

Parcells kept him in check the past two seasons and I think Fox will do the same. I wouldn't worry about it and your GM said that they talked to a lot of people about Keyshawn before they offered the contract to make sure they were doing the right thing in bringing him in.

About Aaron Brooks, considering we gave him a two year deal, I don't think he'll be around for too long. Looking at some mock drafts, Cutler and Young might still be available by the seventh pick and we might end up taking one of those guys. Hopefully we don't fuck that up but since we're the Raiders, I wouldn't count on us making a good decision.

DeAngelo Williams anybody?

Why not, it's Denver.

 

[newbie original]

DeAngelo Williams anybody?

Just remembered the RB I was thinking of...it was Quentin Griffin..had 152 rushing yards in his debut, as the starter, after Portis signed with Washington. Griffin's total was either 3 or 5 yards more than Portis had that same day.

Is Keyshawn a cowboy now?

 

[$teauA]

Is Keyshawn a cowboy now?

No.

Terrel Owens is a Cowboy. Keyshawn Johnson is a Panther.

 

[10Ruud]

Thats right he was released by the Cowboys...I forgot about that.
