Well before someone puts up a PFT link, here's some news on Westbrook. Looks like he is considering going to St. Louis.

You mean the merchandise stores? So does that mean it's just going to be under new management or they will be gone? If so, where am I going to buy my marginally overpriced Redskins apparel and accessories?!?! FED EX FIELD?

I'm guessing it's just new management, otherwise they wouldn't be renewing their leases not selling the stores. It's not uncommon for companies to sell the management of their branded stores. But they'd still be Redskins stores

Yeah, not uncommon at all in the world of licensed merchandise. Hopefully it brings a better selection of products and whatnot. Snyder will still get a cut and not have to worry about the leases, payroll, etc

Ryan Clady suffers non-football related injury | ProFootballTalk.com

If it's real serious that would be a huge blow for McTebow!

Yeah, I think now would be a good time for me to stop the Clady/T. Williams comparisons.

Also props to Todd McShay. Guy was pretty spot on about the top 10 in 2010 a year in advance including selecting our very own Trent Willimas to go fourth overall, albeit to the Raiders. Remember this was done in April 2009.

Oklahoma dominates 2010 mock draft

Plenty of linemen on the board; two quarterbacks and one wide receiver make the cut


1. St. Louis Rams -- Sam Bradford, QB, Oklahoma

College football's most accurate passer could emerge as the top overall pick in 2010. The Rams should be in position to draft their future franchise quarterback after passing on Mark Sanchez in this year's draft.

2. Cleveland Browns -- Ndamukong Suh, DT, Nebraska

Suh is an underrated talent with quickness, power and versatility.

3. Detroit Lions -- Russell Okung, OT, Oklahoma State

The Lions should be in the market for a starting left tackle to protect the blind side of 2009 No. 1 overall pick Matthew Stafford.

4. Oakland Raiders -- Trent Williams, OT, Oklahoma

Oakland drafted a wide receiver (Darrius Heyward-Bey) at No. 7 overall this year rather than solidifying its offensive line with OT Eugene Monroe. The Raiders shouldn't make the same mistake in 2010.

5. Kansas City Chiefs -- Jermaine Gresham, TE, Oklahoma

The Chiefs will have some bigger needs along the offensive and defensive lines, but Gresham projects as the premier tight end in the 2010 class. He could become the replacement for future Hall of Fame TE Tony Gonzalez, who was traded to the Falcons, providing QB Matt Cassell a legitimate pass-catching threat over the middle.

6. Seattle Seahawks (from Denver) -- Colt McCoy, QB, Texas

A year from now the Seahawks could be in the market for Matt Hasselbeck's future replacement and don't be surprised if McCoy emerges as a top-10 pick by then.

7. Jacksonville Jaguars -- Gerald McCoy, DT, Oklahoma

The Jaguars need to replenish their interior defensive line and McCoy is college football's most disruptive tackle when he's healthy.

So I guess we have a few guys to keep an eye on next year.

Buffalo Bills


Andrew Luck*, QB, Stanford

Only a third-year sophomore this fall but coach Jim Harbaugh has Luck on the fast track mechanically and mentally. Luck has prototypical size (6-foot-4, 235 pounds) and is an underrated athlete. More importantly, he has a smooth over-the-top delivery, a strong arm and great touch as a passer. Better decisions while gaining more game experience could put Luck in position to become the top player taken in the draft -- either in 2011 or 2012.


St. Louis Rams


Marcell Dareus*, DT, Alabama

After taking QB Sam Bradford with the top overall pick in 2010, the Rams go back to the well with another first-round defensive lineman in Dareus, who is a remarkable athlete for his size (6-4, 296 pounds).

Kansas City Chiefs


Anthony Castonzo, OT, Boston College

The Chiefs target a bookend starter opposite OT Branden Albert. Castonzo has the long arms, lateral agility and balance to emerge as a top-shelf left tackle prospect next year.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers


Adrian Clayborn, DE, Iowa

The Bucs continue to overhaul their defensive line via the draft. Clayborn could team up with the young defensive tackle tandem of Gerald McCoy (pick No. 3 this year) and Brian Price (pick No. 35) to give Tampa Bay one of the youngest, most talented defensive fronts in the NFL.


Cleveland Browns


Cameron Heyward, DE, Ohio State

Heyward is a local product with the size, power and quickness to give the Browns' base 3-4 defensive front more scheme flexibility.

Washington Redskins


DeAndre McDaniel, S, Clemson

McDaniel is the complete package at safety and he's coming off a 102-tackle, eight-interception season as a junior. Another strong campaign in 2010 should stamp his spot in Round 1 of next year's draft.

Did you mean April 2009?

Don't edit my quotes to make it look like...yeah I meant April 2009.

Non-football? I want details!

Apparently their RT Ryan Harris is also not ready from toe surgery, so they may end up playing their second-round pick rookie tackle somewhere to open the season, probably at Clady's LT spot. They drafted him for RT, so it could be a big test for him to play LT.
