True story, I like Sean Renfree QB and I have no issue that he couldn't beat out Matt Schuab.

Is Gus Johnson any good? Curious cause Arizona had him but cut him.

Bodha, you might be right about Osweiler, but as of now he looks good. And if you look at who the Texans started their last two or three seasons with, he looks even better. Time will tell.

The #Vikings are trying to trade center John Sullivan, per sources. He’s healthy now. Some veteran help available.

A healthy Sullivan is one of the league's best centers.





Doooooo it!

He couldn't make the Browns so if he's waiting to be a starter then he's kidding himself.
That's not correct. The Browns are in total re-build mode. Young promising players behind him, heavy price tag and he was hampered by injuries last season.

Nothing wrong with his level of play. Browns just don't need older players in their project

How bad was Swanson to not be able to beat out Drew "Shank" Butler.
Butler has compromising photos of someone in the front office. I see no other reason why they haven't been able to replace him yet.

Zach Mettenberger released by Chargers. They tried to trade him to Dallas but that fell through. Mike Bercovici has stuck with SD so far so obviously liked him more than Mettenberger. Thought that kid had a shot but they say he was too inconsistent.

Bengals release returner Brandon Tate. "Tate played for the Bengals from 2011 to 2015 and had a franchise-leading 1,415 yards on 154 punt returns. He also was second in franchise history with 3,517 yards on 145 kickoff returns."

Now there is a guy I would bring in to see if he still has what it takes to be a return man. No one on the present roster is capable of doing it.

Actually a guy who the Cardinals should take a look at is K’Waun Williams just cut by the Browns. Apparently the new staff and him were at odds and they decided to cut him. Right now he is certainly better than either Bethel or B. Williams.

That dude has made an entire career out of being a camp superstar. Been in the league 5 years.....1 reception.

I applaud him. Way to stick around.

Ellington might be good, he is great in space.

I thought so too but from the very small sample size in the preseason, Duke looks like he is getting pummeled and is afraid of contact. He could be in the mold of a Darren Sproles type player, without the tree trunk type legs. His body is just not built for excessive amounts of contact unfortunately...

What about this guy at C.....
Vikings released C John Sullivan.

The Vikings could not find a trade partner, so they cut the cord on Sullivan in favor of Tony Sparano pal Joe Berger. Still only 31 years old, Sullivan was one of the top centers in football in 2014, before missing all of 2015 with back problems. There are a number of teams around the league that could use help on the pivot. After losing Nick Martin, the Texans immediately come to mind.

I want him but don't know how we keep 3 Centers on the roster. No question hes an upgrade on Shipley. Little guy just gets manhandled by the bigger NTs in the league.

Who's bigger than Vince Wilfork? Didn't see him abuse Shipley.
