No starting pitchers were selected in the first round of our 12 team mock draft but in this round both Roy Halladay and Felix Hernandez went off the board. Both pitchers are studs but you may see Hernandez fall because he plays on the Mariners. Beyond those star pitchers, it was hitting that dominated the second round as third basemen seemed to rule this round of the draft. Evan Longoria went in the first r ...

At the combine on Sunday, the quarterbacks, running backs and wide receivers took to the practice field. This is the “Tiffany” day, as the clever guys at NFL Network coined it, inferring that the more glamorous or “big ticket” players would take the field. But there are a few quick notes before we get into the top performers of the day. For those who may not understand, although the combine and subsequent “ ...

Toward the end of February, I participated in a 12 team mock draft on Mock Draft Central for a mixed 5x5 MLB fantasy league. In this mock draft, I had the 12th pick and wanted to break down each round for selections to give you an idea of where players are going and a quick thought or two on their fantasy value at this point. I will have articles for each round coming up on the website for each and should h ...

First of all, if you’re reading this, congratulations on being a diehard football fan. If this really is the first time you’re realizing it, welcome to the club. If you’ve known this for some time now, welcome back sir, it’s good to see you. I say this because the NFL Combine, if you’re really watching it and following it, is the smallest of the NFL events. Of course we have the Super Bowl, the playoffs, th ...

The Jets are expected to keep just one of their two starting wide receivers in Braylon Edwards and Santonio Holmes. Of the two, look for the Jets to keep Holmes as he is the better receiver and seems to have better chemistry with young quarterback Mark Sanchez. Other talented receivers on for free agency include Mike Sims-Walker, James Jones, Steve Smith (Giants), Terrell Owens, Sidney Rice, Vincent Jackson ...

Jaguars tight end Marcedes Lewis watched his stock rise by leaps and bounds last season as he posted a career year with 700 yards receiving and ten touchdowns. I always felt this kid had more abilities in the passing game than the team gave him since coming out of UCLA a few years back and Lewis finally proved me right. The Jaguars have slapped the franchise tag on Lewis this off-season and have all the int ...

Many teams will be looking for an impact linebacker once the free agent market opens up after the lockout. One linebacker who will be of great interest if Bills' stud Paul Posluszny. Poz will probably get the restricted free agent tag but there is no guarantee that it will hold up after the lockout is over. If Posluszny hits the open market I would anticipate that teams running a three - four style defense ...

As is every year we have some solid defensive lineman ready to hit the open market and a few that have been locked up with a franchise tag before free agency starts. Unlike other years, there is no guarantee that the tags will matter as the league has to decide on if they will count. I would expect the league to honor all franchise rights for this season to defuse anymore drama once the lockout ends. If fra ...
