The Chiefs will know in a matter of weeks whether their acquisition of wide receiver Chris Chambers fits into a category with the signing of Bobby Wade or one with Amani Toomer and Ashley Lelie. They just know for now they’re desperate to improve an ailing passing game. They’re willing to try anything to get them there, even if it means taking on a wide receiver that was found lacking...

Sharks are a formidable foe, often unseen until it's too late when they unleash their fury and force with devastating affect. And that image is perfect for a tuning company that has quietly been lurking in the community of Fresno, CA. For a few years SharkWerks swam under the radar, building custom exhaust systems and putting out short teaser videos to showcase their sound. Then they built some lethal...

Last month we told you about the Kansas City Chiefs working out former top ten draft pick David Terrell. Head coach Todd Haley was the Chicago Bears receivers coach when he was drafted in 2001. Terrell, Chiefs quarterback Matt Cassel and Patriots quarterback Tom Brady , among others, worked out over the summer so it's possible and/or likely that Cassel vouched for Terrell according to Brad Biggs of...

One of Jerry Reese’s first acts as GM of the Giants came in February of 2007 when he surprised many by cutting left tackle Luke Petitgout and replacing him with David Diehl. It was a controversial move at the time because Diehl was thought by some to be better suited to guard and it appeared that Reese was taking a big risk along the offensive line. That makes it even more remarkable that the...

With the addition of Bobby Wade reportedly happening today, I thought it would be a good time to do a quick review of how we ended up with the receivers that we did. Obviously, this position has been a revolving door the last nine months with the exception of Dwayne Bowe and Mark Bradley , the only two leftovers from the '08 squad. There have been players entering their second season that were released...

Giants TE Kevin Boss , who has the potential to play a bigger role in the passing game with Plaxico Burress and Amani Toomer gone, already was more of a factor in the season opener against the Redskins. He caught three passes for 62 yards. Only once did he have 60 yards receiving in a game last season.

Photo by Bill Kostroun/AP The Giants will face significant challenges in 2009, but they certainly have the talent to return to the Super Bowl. The biggest obstacle to that quest will be at wide receiver. Plaxico is gone and Amani Toomer didn’t make it out of training camp in Kansas City. That leaves Domenik Hixon and Steve Smith as the starting receivers, two players with only 109 catches between...
