President of the Cleveland Browns, Mike Holmgren, has been cleaning house since taking over the organization. Over the weekend, Holmgren and the Browns got rid of both quarterbacks &#8212; Brady Quinn (traded to Denver) and Derek Anderson &#8212; as well as trading outside linebacker Kamerion Wimbley.

<p>President of the Cleveland Browns, Mike Holmgren, has been cleaning house since taking over the organization. Over the weekend, Holmgren and the Browns got rid of both quarterbacks &#8212; Brady Quinn (traded to Denver) and Derek Anderson &#8212; as well as trading outside linebacker Kamerion Wimbley. Cleveland then added quarterbacks Seneca Wallace and Jake Delhomme.</p>
<p>Three of the four first-round picks by former Browns general manager Phil Savage are no longer with the team.</p>
<p>At a press conference on Monday, Holmgren mentioned that he may not be done adding quarterbacks to the roster just yet. Cleveland holds the seventh-overall pick in the 2010 NFL Draft.</p>
<p>There is also another possibility.</p>
<p>Mary Kay Cabot, beat writer for the Cleveland Plain Dealer, tweeted that Holmgren said he&#8217;ll <a href="http://twitter.com/MaryKayCabot/status/10534368582">consider drafting a quarterback in the seventh pick, or even possibly trading up</a>. It also said that Holmgren likes former Oklahoma Sooner signal-caller Sam Bradford.</p>

<p>The Jacksonville Jaguars have often been linked to Florida quarterback Tim Tebow. Rumors have linked the two mainly due to the fact that Tebow is a local superstar and Jacksonville needs desperate help both on and off the field. The team has no identity and struggles to put fans in the seats. An addition like Tebow would spark interest in the franchise and give the fans something to get excited about.</p>
<p>Jaguars owner Wayne Weaver has even called Tebow an icon, but don&#8217;t believe the rumors of Tebow to the Jaguars just yet. According to Weaver, the team will stick to their draft plan and will not force any picks for the Florida star.</p>
<p>“Personally, I think Tim Tebow is an extraordinary young man and he’s an extraordinary athlete. He’s going to be successful in the National Football League,” Weaver said before a Jaguars Rally Thursday.</p>
<p>“What we’ve got to do is trust our value board in our draft. If we force a pick, then we devalue thousands of hours of work by our scouts. We have to be true to our mission and go take the best player with our pick. When we do that, we get good results,” he said.</p>
<p>Jacksonville has swayed from their draft board before and Weaver acknowledges the mistakes saying, “We all know we’ve done it the other way in the past and it didn’t work. Shame on you if you don’t learn from your mistakes. You stay true to your process.”</p>
<p>While some fans may be begging for Tebow and creating sites such as <a href="http://www.draft15.com/index.html">Draft15.com</a>, the Jaguar nation should be pleased that their owners and scouts are keeping a level head and not letting emotion rule their decision making.</p>

<p>The No. 1 ranked wide receiver in the 2010 NFL Draft class, Dez Bryant, has announced that he will not work out for scouts at the Oklahoma State Pro Day on Wednesday.</p>
<p>Bryant missed work outs at the NFL Scouting Combine after he tweaked his hamstring. The injury is still lingering and will force the top prospect to push back his work out even more.</p>
<p>Per a report on NFL.com, Bryant plans to go through drills on either March 25 or March 29 in his hometown of Lufkin, Texas. Bryant has not played since September 19 against Rice due to a NCAA suspension.</p>
<p>Bryant&#8217;s teammate Perish Cox will be unavailable for Oklahoma State&#8217;s Pro Day, as well. Cox won&#8217;t be allowed to work out at the Cowboys&#8217; Pro Day because of his Cotton Bowl suspension for curfew violations.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignright" title="mays" src="http://i2.cdn.turner.com/si/2008/writers/stewart_mandel/12/10/mailbag/taylor-mays-p2.jpg" alt="" width="249" height="201" />USC safety Taylor Mays has undergone some criticism lately due to his lack of eye-popping numbers this season. Mays also struggled at the Senior Bowl, but all of that talk should come to a rest as he just stole the show at the NFL Scouting Combine.</p>
<p>Mays recorded an unofficial time of 4.24 on his first attempt. Wow.</p>
<p>That time, if it stands, would tie Tennessee running back Chris Johnson for the fastest time recorded in combine history. Mays&#8217; time is even more impressive due to his incredible size, 6-foot-3, 230-pounds.</p>
<p>&#8220;If a man runs a 4.24 here at 231 pounds, all these egos in these bleachers are thinking, &#8216;I can work with that,&#8217;&#8221; said NFL Network analyst and a guy that knows something about having elite speed, Deion Sanders.</p>
<p>There were talks that the USC safety could be slipping into the second-round range, but his unbelievable time could have just secured him a spot in round one.</p>
<p>Mays will need to continue his performance during on the field drill to answer questions about his ball skill and fluidity in his hips. Mike Mayock pointed out that the fast 40 time does not automatically mean elite player.</p>
<p>&#8220;I know he&#8217;s a specimen,&#8221; Mayock said. &#8220;I know he&#8217;s an unbelievable athlete. I know he&#8217;s a freak. I get all that. What you&#8217;ve got to see on tape is him making a play. You&#8217;ve got two picks in three years. You&#8217;ve got to get around the football more often.&#8221;</p>
<p>UPDATE: Taylor Mays ran the fastest time of any defensive back at this year&#8217;s combine, however, his official time was adjusted to a 4.43.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignright" title="berry" src="http://tnjn.com/content/storyimage/2009/09/05/Berry_lores.box.jpg" alt="" width="268" height="200" />While the top safety in this year&#8217;s class was looking for some advice on whether to forgo his final year of eligibility and declare for the NFL Draft, he reached out his defensive coordinator.</p>
<p>Tennessee safety Eric Berry is the consenses No. 1 rated safety. When making his decision, he sought out his defensive coordinator Monte Kiffin. Kiffin was a longtime defensive coordinator in the NFL, so there it was clear why Berry would look to him to ask about his pro potential.</p>
<p>&#8220;Monte told me I&#8217;d be a fool to stay,&#8221; Berry said.</p>
<p>Berry was coming off of what was considered a down year for him. He only had two interceptions and no sacks after having 7 INTs and 3 sacks in his sophomore campaign.</p>
<p>The Volunteer standout had an explanation for his lackluster numbers. &#8220;People treated me like I had the plague last season,&#8221; he said.</p>
<p>Berry stated at this year&#8217;s combine that he believes he should be the first-overall player selected in the upcoming draft. He was asked if he thought he was the most talented player in the draft class and without hesitation said yes.</p>
<p>He added, &#8220;I don&#8217;t think something like a position should prevent someone from being picked, but if you wanna go into position, I played almost every position on the field. Under Coach (Monte) Kiffin&#8217;s scheme, you could say that I played a lot of linebacker &#8230; I play either safety spot &#8230; natural corner.&#8221;</p>
<p>While it looks like the St. Louis Rams are leaning towards Oklahoma quarterback Sam Bradford first overall, Berry should find himself landing safely in the top 5 come April.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignright" title="bradford" src="http://i2.cdn.turner.com/si/2008/writers/the_bonus/10/10/oklahoma/sam-bradford2.jpg" alt="" width="250" height="349" />ESPN analyst Adam Schefter was on the St. Louis Sports Station 101 ESPN  to discuss the Rams offseason plans. The most quoteworthy moment from Schefter&#8217;s interview was when he went out and made a bold prediction on where the Rams will go with their first pick in the upcoming draft.</p>
<p>Schefter stated, “I would like to record something here, on February 24th.  Two months from the draft.  And tell you who the number one pick is gonna be right now… When all is said and done, that the Rams’ number one pick on April 22nd, two months from now, will be Oklahoma quarterback Sam Bradford.  I’m willing to take all bets on that one right now.”</p>
<p>He even continued that many people have told him there is no way the Rams will not select Sam Bradford. You can <a href="http://www.101espn.com/post/38853_burwell_and_stelton_show_note_wednesday_22410/audio">listen to all of Schefter&#8217;s comments here</a>.</p>
<p>The move makes sense when you look at the big picture. While defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh is looked at as the top prospect in this class, St. Louis has spent multiple first-round selections on their defensive line the past few years with guys like Adam Carriker and Chris Long.</p>
<p>There is also a financial angle to this selection. Would St. Louis want to tie up another record setting contract to a member of their defensive line or would they prefer to get a better bang for their buck and lock up the next star quarterback?</p>
<p>In a quarterback driven league, Bradford could be the guy to turn around the Rams misfortune. St. Louis has passed up the likes of Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan and Jets signal-caller Mark Sanchez the past two years and they cannot pass up another opportunity to snag up a potential franchise QB.</p>
<p>Of course, there are injury concerns surrounding Bradford and the fact that we have not seen him drop back and make big time throws when he was not protected by one of the nation&#8217;s best offensive lines. Still it appears that Bradford&#8217;s shoulder will clear medical evaluations and the Oklahoma product has accuracy that scouts drool over. After he gets to perform at his Pro Day, Bradford will likely be the talk of the town.</p>
<p>Schefter seems very confident in his statements and when you take a closer look at St. Louis&#8217; needs the move makes sense. No matter what the talking heads on television tell you, the No. 1 overall pick will come down to Bradford and Suh. With the way that Schefter is going on record and the amount of information his sources are giving him, I would bet the house on Bradford being the top pick in April.</p>

There have been rumors swirling regarding a potential trade involving Washington Redskins quarterback Jason Campbell. It has long been suspected that Campbell&#8217;s time in Washington has come to an end and Jason Reid of the <em>Washington Post</em> wrote today about a rumor that he and Jason La Canfora of NFL Network have been hearing in Indianapolis.</p>
<p>&#8220;Between sharing a few laughs, we both were busy checking out rumors about a potential Redskins trade that supposedly would send <a href="http://voices.washingtonpost.com/redskinsinsider/jason-campbell/campbells-future-with-redskins.html">Jason Campbell, a restricted free agent, to the Buffalo Bills for safety Donte Whitner and a draft pick</a>,&#8221; wrote Reid.</p>
<p>Reid goes on to say that the trade will likely never come to fruition. In fact, Campbell&#8217;s agent, Joel Segal, is expected to speak with Redskins General Manager Bruce Allen at some time during the combine to discuss a new contract.</p>
<p>Campbell becomes a restricted free agent next week and the Redskins are expected to give him a $3.268 million tender, which would give the team a first and third-rounder as compensation if Campbell was to sign elsewhere.</p>

<p>In a draft class that lacks any standout players outside of Nebraska&#8217;s Ndamukong Suh, many of the teams occupying picks in the top half of the draft are looking to trade down and acquire more selections. The draft is one of the deepest in history, so trading down would allow a team to acquire more picks and get better value with their selection.</p>
<p>While speaking with Jaguars.com, G.M. Gene Smith stated that <a href="http://www.jaguars.com/news/article.aspx?id=8755">the team would like to trade down</a>. “We’d certainly entertain the possibility of acquiring more picks,” Smith said.</p>
<p>The Jaguars are considering defensive linemen, according to Smith. Jacksonville&#8217;s pass-rush ranked among the worst in the NFL and they haven&#8217;t been able to find consistency among the players currently on their roster. It was just two years ago that the Jaguars traded up for defensive end Derrick Harvey and used a second-round pick on Quentin Groves; neither player has panned out.</p>
<p>Of course, this could all just be a smoke screen and Jacksonville could be targeting Florida quarterback Tim Tebow who has often been linked to the team. Trading down would make perfect sense in that case.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignright" title="lions" src="http://dvsportsblog.files.wordpress.com/2009/09/lions_logo.jpg" alt="" width="268" height="200" />There have been reports that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and St. Louis Rams could be in <a href="http://nflmocks.com/2010/02/20/could-the-buccaneers-trade-up-for-ndamukong-suh/">talks to swap the first-overall pick and the No. 3 selection</a> in the upcoming NFL draft. Tampa Bay highly covets Nebraska defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh, and the St. Louis Rams could end up with their future quarterback from the Buccaneers in a deal that would likely include the Bucs back-up QB, Josh Johnson.</p>
<p>With those trade talks heating up, a new team has thrown their first-rounder on the trading block. The Detroit Lions are said to be in discussions to move their pick &#8212; second overall.</p>
<p>Jason La Canfora of NFL.com said today that the Lions are &#8220;<a href="http://twitter.com/JasonLaCanfora/status/9528474491">shopping the second-overall pick</a>, already in contact with several other teams.&#8221;</p>
<p>This could be a good move for the Lions who are believed to be interested in an offensive tackle like Oklahoma State&#8217;s Russell Okung to become their franchise left tackle and protect last year&#8217;s first-overall pick Matthew Stafford for many years to com. Okung would be considered a reach at No. 2, but if they move out of that slot with a team like the Bills, Redskins or Seahawks &#8212; who could look at one of the top two QB&#8217;s &#8212; Detroit would be in better position to get value with their selection of Okung.</p>
<p>Be sure to stay tuned to NFLMocks.com for the latest draft rumors.</p>
