Amen Ogbonbemiga signed as a UFA with the Chargers.

SO, his NFL dream still has some legs...Hopefully, he will show out enough to get onto a practice squad at least.

the only pity was that long snapper Camaron Cheeseman didn't go to the Packers.

Dk Metcalf ran a 10.36 in Olympic 100m pre trials.
Nowhere near a top.time of the day of 10.09 but pretty good for a guy 6'4 240lbs.

That made me curious:
NFL Scouting Combine: 40-Yard Dash Record

https://athlonsports.com/nfl-scoutin...rd-dash-record

4.22 seconds: John Ross III, WR (2017)

(Usain Bolt ran 4.22-second 40-yard dash at Super Bowl)

This year, Schwartz (Browns) WR ran a 4.25 40 yard dash

https://www.sportingnews.com/us/nfl/...m1bhzc3xhoa7ae

Top speed for players in a game with equipment on is around 22 MPH.

If every Tebow headline isn't some variation of "He Is Risen", I'm going to be very disappointed.

Colts sign LT Eric Fisher to a 1 year contract.

Former #1 overall pick and was a pro-bowler last year. Tore his achilles in the AFC Championship game in January. Should be back early in the season. Makes sense why they went DE in back to back picks in the draft rather than get an OT to replace the retired Castonzo.

Boy I'm surprised Fisher got $9.4 million. It seems like players typically aren't the same after achillies injury until their 2nd season if they ever get back to the player they used to be.

Brandon Brooks came back from his a few years ago and made the Pro Bowl the same season, IIRC. I think it's a bit different for linemen than it is for skill position players.

It can be different player to player but it's not like teams were tripping over themselves trying to sign him. I get that Wentz needs protection but it seems like a lot of money for a player that may not play until October.

That is actually ridiculous at his size.

He pretty much dwarfs over everyone else that he was running against in that video.

I think Fisher's salary indicates the Colts expect him to be ready for no worse than week 4-5. Which seems insane for a torn achillies in late January, but clearly they are comfortable with his progress.
