The Cardinals have never been ones to focus on the tight end in their offense, but times are changing. The tight end has become a focal point of offenses all across the league and the Cardinals no longer have quite the outside wide receiver talent that they had in years…

Greg Hardy is one of the hidden gems of the Panthers’ team, leading the defensive line in snaps played last season and accumulating 4 sacks, 8 quarterback hits, and 33 quarterback pressures. Hardy’s 8 batted passes also ranked 1st at his position, even ahead of the freakishly long armed Jason…

The Broncos used a 3rd round pick on Ronnie Hillman and while many expect him to serve as a change of pace back behind and the primary backup to Willis McGahee, the Denver Post is reporting that Hillman is currently buried in the depth chart and was the 4th running…

Steelers Rashard Mendenhall and Casey Hampton tore their ACLs in January and, while both have said they will be back for week 1, a more realistic source, GM Kevin Colbert, expects both to start the season on the PUP, shutting them each down for the first 6 games of the…
