    Yesterday, I commented on a report that Torrey Smith would miss most of the preseason with an ankle injury and his week 1 status was in jeopardy. However, it appears that was much ado about nothing as Smith was already back practicing for the Ravens today. My original projection of…

    Well that was fun while it latest. About 2 months after signing with the Dolphins, the Dolphins have cut Chad Johnson (previously Chad Ochocinco). Johnson was simultaneously competing for a starting job and on the roster bubble, after signing a non-guaranteed contract in June, before getting arrested for domestic abuse…

    In a weekly press conference, Packers Head Coach Mike McCarthy described James Starks’ turf toe injury as “week to week” rather than day to day, putting his week 1 availability in doubt. Starks has a history of injury problems, dating back to his days at the University of Buffalo, which…

    Patriots fans can breathe a sigh of relief. 4-time Pro Bowler Logan Mankins has been activated from the PUP roughly 6 months after having knee surgery and will almost definitely start week 1. He’s only missed 1 game in 8 years after going in the 1st round in 2005, but…

    The Patriots will play host to two of the most prominent remaining free agents, Chad Clifton and Plaxico Burress. Clifton was cut by the Packers earlier this offseason after failing a physical and looked likely to retire at age 36, but if he can prove he’s healthy, he might be…

    According to the Bengals’ official website, Carlos Dunlap is expected to miss about a month with a knee injury, which puts his availability for week 1 in serious doubt. Dunlap is one of the league’s most underrated players as the 2010 2nd round pick graded out as ProFootballFocus’ 7th rated…

    According to the Associated Press, the Cardinals have approached Daryl Washington about a long term extension and that the two sides have “talked back and forth,” though no official offer has been made.

    August 12, 2012

    When the Panthers signed Mike Tolbert this offseason, it was a head scratching move for both parties. Tolbert has rushed for 1225 yards and 17 touchdowns on 303 carries in the last 2 seasons, along with another 79 catches for 649 yards and 2 touchdowns. He has the talent to…

    Though it originally looked like Terrell Thomas could miss a 2nd straight season with a torn ACL, it appears he merely “aggravated” and “stretched” the surgically repaired ACL. He will still miss at least 3-8 weeks and will almost definitely begin the season as a gameday inactive. 2011 1st round…
