Young has loads of talent and so it was almost a certainty that some team would roll the dice and claim Young off of waivers. And that team was the St. Louis Rams.

Oakland 100-1 Arizona 100-1 Cleveland 100-1 St. Louis 100-1 Kansas City 150-1 Jacksonville 200-1

Geno was also on a SD radio station. Even on a station of an AFC West rival he still didn’t hesitate to make it known that he wants to go to KC.

Green Bay Packers WR Greg Jennings to Miami Dolphins coach Joe Philbin: ‘Joe, how you doing? Remember me?’

There are strong indications that Kelly won’t waste too much time after the Super Bowl before reaching out to Ravens practice squad quarterback Dennis Dixon and bringing him to Philadelphia.

"In our attitude, every sack is the quarterback’s fault. It is not a sack if the quarterback throws the ball away. Nobody ever lost a game on an incomplete pass. Throw the ball away, and give us another opportunity to make a first down."

The Kansas City Chiefs announced on Friday the addition of two coaches. Al Harris will join the club as a defensive assistant/secondary coach and Mark DeLeone will be a quality control coach. The team also announced it will retain Assistant Strength and Conditioning Coach Brent Salazar.

The Broncos have just south of $20 million in cap space, and as has been explained numerous times on this site, offensive tackle Ryan Clady is due a Pro Bowl pay day. Clady finished out his rookie contract without really any hint of a holdout or any whining whatsoever, and he deserves to be paid like one of the top left tackles in the NFL.

During the final minute of the first half, Brady slid to the ground to end an impromptu run. The quarterback had one leg raised a few feet off the ground and it hit Reed, who emerged from the play without injury.

You know this draft has me more excited Than any draft in the last 10 years. I mean WE KNEW for better or worse basically Reid’s drafting strategy. Early round lineman (O or D) mid round running back / linebacker. late round project o-line/d-line. CB drafted early when needed and a few WR’s sprinkled in here and there. But we knew what AR felt his premium positions were. With a new coach (whoever it is) We might actually draft a linebacker or safety in round 1 or… ANYTHING. by TheRex on Jan 16, 2013 11:41 AM EST reply actions

ESPN's Mel Kiper stated on SportsCenter Wednesday that he does not anticipate West Virginia QB Geno Smith being a top-ten pick in April's draft. Kiper doesn't even have Smith as this year's top-rated quarterback, ranking him behind NC State's Mike Glennon and USC's Matt Barkley. "My contacts in the NFL tell me that Geno Smith's not that consensus top-ten guy," Kiper said. "(And) obviously, Glennon and Barkley aren't." Kiper did say Syracuse's Ryan Nassib has "moved up a lot," potentially into the back end of the first round if a team is willing to trade up for him. Kiper has Glennon first, Barkley second, Smith third, Arkansas' Tyler Wilson fourth, and Nassib fifth in his quarterback rankings. Jan 16 - 1:57 PM

Dan Kadar ‏@MockingTheDraft Note on Kiper's mock draft: No quarterbacks in the first round.

In the 2008 NFL Draft, the Miami Dolphins' top need was at quarterback, but with the No. 1 overall selection, Miami decided to go with the "safe" pick (left tackle Jake Long), passing on Matt Ryan. Fast forward to the present and the Chiefs will face a similar conundrum: go with the reliable left tackle prospect (Luke Joeckel), or is there a quarterback the decision-makers at Arrowhead feel is worthy of the No. 1 overall pick?

Brian Daboll, a Patriots assistant during Bill Belichick’s first seven seasons in New England, is returning to the team.

Since Reid likes to throw the ball, I think he’ll feel safer with a veteran LT

There was a little buzz that Cousins could be dealt this offseason to a QB-needy team like Arizona or Kansas City. Griffin’s knee issues probably take any of those possibilities off the table.

On the whole, was Andy Reid a plus or a minus for the Birds? He was a plus -- Nine playoffs are nothing to sneeze at. 7384 (66.3%) He was a minus – Zero parades. ‘Nuff said. 1283 (11.5%) I’m conflicted -- Wish he’d actually done a better job. 2467 (22.2%)

"Chiefs owner Clark Hunt and his delegation that includes GM Scott Pioli has actually left Philadelphia and return to Kansas City without Andy Reid in tow. Now I don't know if that's because Andy Reid might put the plane over its weight limit, but there's no apparent breakdown in the deal. The expectation still is that Andy Reid is going to be the next head coach of the Kansas City Chiefs."

Tackle David Mims, who spent time on the Chiefs’ active roster and on the practice squad, was signed to a futures contract yesterday by the Baltimore Ravens.

Less than a year after the Jets renewed their vows with quarterback Mark Sanchez via a contract extension that bound the player and team together for at least two seasons, the Jets will try to foist the balance of said contract extension onto a new team after only one.

"He comes in, he’s [got a] 70 percent completion [percentage], he’s [got a] 100-plus quarterback rating," Rodgers recently told NFL Network, via Kevin Lynch of the San Francisco Chronicle. "Last year, he’s like barely over one percent interception percentage. He’s a great quarterback, he just needs to go somewhere he gets appreciated for the skills he has and hopefully he gets a chance next year."

The Raiders have presented a particularly bad matchup for the Chiefs this season. After entering Sunday allowing a league-high 31 points per game, they shut out the Chiefs, holding them to 119 total yards. "They haven’t exactly lit the world on fire," Winston said, "but for whatever reason, we haven’t fared too well against them."

Landry is known as a fierce hitter, which has caused some to question whether he’s dirty — especially since he has been seen celebrating after hits that put opponents on the ground.

The Dolphins made a significant, and significantly wrong, decision in the 2008 Draft. Instead of taking Boston College quarterback Matt Ryan first overall, they took left tackle Jake Long and then Chad Henne in the second round. To say Henne (13-18 record as a starter) didn’t work out as well as Ryan (54-21 with the Falcons) understates the case badly. The Dolphins let Henne walk this offseason as a free agent, casting their lot with their next quarterback of the future, Ryan Tannehill.

According to Michael Gehlken of U-T San Diego, Chargers coach Norv Turner said Monday that he doesn’t expect left tackle Michael Harris (ankle) or right tackle Jeromey Clary (knee) or left guard Tyronne Green (hamstring) to be available Sunday against the Steelers.
