Cut Too Deep

I had contemplated writing an extended bio for my first blog post, but decided to concentrate on a major issue at hand.

The Jay Cutler-Broncos situation has now hit the irreconcilable differences stage. The more we hear about this story, the more it seems like we will never hear the complete truth. Each side continues to give us some truth, but inevitably contradicts the other in the end.

Though head coach Josh McDaniels said the team wasn’t trying to trade Cutler, he also admitted that he did listen to offers.

  • 12-team Non-PPR mock draft review May 9, 2013
    In about a month, I will be whipping up my initial and early Draft Plan, which will simply cover all the positions and how to approach them.
