NFL Off Season (Draft, FAs, coaching carousel)

what an idiot:

CANYON, Texas -- Former NFL quarterback Ryan Leaf has been indicted by a Randall County grand jury on drug and burglary charges.

The indictment handed up Wednesday in Canyon charged the 33-year-old former San Diego Chargers quarterback and former West Texas A&M quarterbacks coach with one count of burglary to a habitation, seven counts of obtaining a controlled substance by fraud and one count of delivery of a simulated controlled substance.

The indictment said Leaf presented an incomplete medical history to several physicians between January 2008 and September 2008 to get or try to obtain the painkiller Hydrocodone.

It was not clear whether Leaf had an attorney.

Canyon police Lt. Dale Davis said Leaf is suspected of breaking into a Canyon apartment on Oct. 30 and stealing Hydrocodone, which had been prescribed to an injured football player.

"There were signs of a forced entry," Davis said. "A window in the back of the home was [damaged]."

The count of delivery of a simulated controlled substance alleges Leaf gave an individual a substance he said was Hydrocodone but was not that drug.

James Farren, Randall County criminal district attorney, said Leaf has been undergoing drug rehabilitation in British Columbia, the Amarillo Globe-News reported.

Farren told the newspaper that efforts were under way to try to convince Leaf to return to the United States on his own.

"We have not found any evidence implicating anyone other than Mr. Leaf in this case ... but believe there's additional evidence implicating him in other events," Farren said. He would not elaborate.

Leaf, a Great Falls, Mont., native, led Washington State to the Pacific-10 Conference championship and Rose Bowl appearance. The Chargers made him the second pick of the 1998 NFL draft. He played for the Chargers from 1998-2000 and also played for the Dallas Cowboys in 2001. He threw for 3,666 yards and 14 touchdowns in his career.
 
Ryan Leaf is a bona fide loser. What does he need painkillers for anyway, to hide the pain he gets from the fact that he was a complete joke in the NFL

Cowboys shouldn't be so low either.

No, mate.

They need a better GM.

They need a better Head Coach.

And they need a Quarterback who's not in love with being famous.

better GM - i think so, or at least an 'assistant GM' to help him

i'll give 'tough love' wade a final chance this year - otherwise it's shananan

i like ROmo - and i think he's got a Jim McMahon streak (remember 'that' video?) ... he's still young and i think he can snap out of it ... let's see what he can do without Owens.
 
I think yiz should break the bank to get Cowher in here myself.

And I like Tony too. I just question if he cares enough to do all that's necessary to become great.

Cowher! Woaaaah, would he even come out of retirement again?

Aikman raised the same concerns about Tony ... So it's a valid concern ...
 
Don't think Cowher will come as long as Jerry Jones is around, too much of a headache for him.

I have faith in Wade.
 
Hey, they used to be very good, until that idiot Francione came along. This weekend should be a good time, are actually gonna grace us with your presence?
 
I've been told I'll never see her naked again if I don't...

We're all headed to the pool on Saturday, I hear.

A bit of an exaggeration, no?

I would not mind having Cowher, but I do see him as being one of the few guys in the NFL that would not take a job like that, because of his ties with the Steelers.

I don't know, but he seems like a loyal, honorable guy.

Fair Enough. The real question is would he do it, for any amount of money, or would his principles get in the way?

[/quote]I dont think so. I also dont think his style of ball would sit with the Dallas fans. Smashmouth, down in the trenches, 4th quarter field goal wins arent really what you associate with the cowboys.
 
Oncy, don't you actually mean...

what you've just said there (to a Dallas Cowboys fan) 'i think you should break the bank to get Bill Parcells'

FUCK OFF!

'Cos, y'see, if you'd put it like that, I'd absolutely understand why the cowboys wouldn't want him, what with him having previously won a Superbowl for an arch enemy, n'all...
 
Whadappie - if you're doing fantasy football, my sleeper pick for late late on our 2nd TE, Bennett.

I think he has Gates like potential - and with all defenses focusing their 'passing defense' on Roy Williams & Witten, I think we may have something here.
 
Bennet is very special, he may only last a few season at Dallas, before another team tries to snatch him up. Oh, and eh went to Texas A&M btw.

Aggie Power!

Ha ha I'm not sure if he's special but he has that frame and ability to just be a very dominant TE (6'6, 240+ lbs). Yes, we'll miss Owens, but the 2 TE set with Williams & Cryaton will be far more effective than most people think.
