:laughing2


[quote]Sources say some of the rules Bryant must abide are as follows:

• A midnight curfew. If he's going to miss curfew, team officials must know in advance;

• No drinking alcohol.

• He can't attend any strip clubs and can only attend nightclubs if they are approved by the team and he has a security team with him.

• He must attend counseling sessions twice a week.

• A rotating three-man security team will leave one man with Bryant at all times.

• Members of the security team will drive Bryant to practices, games and team functions.

Bryant's adviser, David Wells, will hire the security team for the wide receiver.[/quote]

I didn't want to address that, but I'm on your side on that one.

Anyway, did anyone see any of the Dallas game? I woke up and checked the box score and saw that some guy I'd never heard of had over a hundred yards on 3 (?) catches?! Did they find yet another Laurent Robinson?

They are making it sound as though they may re-sign him in the future after pre-season, something having to do with the financial impact of signing veterans is lessened after pre-season is over.

He may get another chance somewhere i would think. His personal issues not withstanding, I think giving up on him after only two preseason games was premature. He had been out of the NFL since 2010, and i think he needed a few more games to get going...

Thats what the Cboys were discussing down here, talking about cutting Derick Dockery so they wont have to pay him the whole years salary, then picking him up after week one or something like that.

Dwayne Harris is a straight baller. I had the pleasure of watching this guy play for 4 years while here at ECU. Just because you haven't heard about him doesn't mean much. People had never heard of Chris Johnson until he blew up the NFL. The only reason Dwayne Harris didn't get drafted in the 1st round is due to his speed. He simply doesn't have top end speed that many of the NFL WRers have. He's a was a very good return man for us as well.

exactly. Vontae is a very solid CB. I don't really think the Dolphins 'won' this trade, sure they have Sean Smith, but now in a division with Brady and the pass happy bills, I think its kinda dumb, then again the dolphins aren't going anywhere great for the next couple of years.

IMO the switch from a 4-3 defense to a 3-4 will hit them hard. Mathis and Freeney are much better with their hands down and they don't have a lot of 3-4 talent besides. I think the Colts will not be very good on defense this year, even with this trade.

This has nothing to do with the point I made. I know their CBs are horrible, but they are STILL going to be horrible with Vontae Davis. Not only that, but they are going to have to pay him major bucks to keep him there. So why spend a prime draft pick and pay a guy big time money for a team that isn't going to be competing for a while? I'm not saying that Davis isn't worth a 2nd round pick, I'm saying that the Colts have too many needs on their team to be making a trade like this.

:laughing-

Decent defense? Colts and "decent defense" aren't really synonymous together. They have great edge rushers and that's about all. They can't stop the run, can't stop the pass, and they'll be having to score a lot of points this year to keep up. They'll be picking in the top 5 again this year. Their only saving grace is they are in a crappy division right now.
