West Ham Online

"Free agency started last night and was pretty crazy some huge money being spent. Osweiler getting £18m a year for the Texans, leaving the Broncos without a QB, Giants have spent a fortune on good but not great players, Oliver Vernon has more guaranteed money than JJ Watt. lots more deals but cant be bothered to list them all."

"Gronk seems ready and raring to go, he'll be brady's comfort blnaket with edelman done for the year, atleast until brady builds up a rapport with cooks, probably wont see gronk at 6/1 again all year"

"There's a lot of talk of NFL players hitting their partners or spouses. It's about time the league looked in to this situation. You can' have this happening with such a publicised sport. NFL please sort out the mouthy, trappy women your athletes are involved with, it's going to ruin the sport."

Dolphins game against the Bucs' been postponed... blame the Grade 5 Hurricane zoning in on Southern Florida...

"Right, time to get excited is it??? Think I'll have to channel my excitement to watching the games themselves, as the Niners won't be giving me too many happy times!!! Is the Gronk all good and raring to go, as I've just stuck £7.50 on him for 1st TD tomorrow at 6/1?"

"I don't know what they've got on Elliott, but they did have video evidence of Rice knocking out his missus. But yeah he does seem like a total wrongun. Of course though he's getting a bit of leway because he's the star player for the biggest team in the league/country, when other players are getting immediate longer bans and fired for similar transgressions. Ridiculous how there's been weeks to sort it out and they can't even get the suspension sorted for week 1. I'm sure the fact the Cowboys are the sunday night primetime game has absolutely NOTHING at all to do with it either..."

"Yeh, Rice didn't even get banned though if I remember correctly and then the video of him knocking his wife out surfaced. No team would touch him after that. Elliot's obvious talent will see him be fine though especially in a cowboys team that signed Gregg Hardy after all the shit he did"

"I had to get rid of winston because of the shit he was alleged to have done in college. Elliott looks like a wroungun, the cսnt should get at least a year ban. didn't the nfl ruin Ray Rice for similar shit"

"if there is even a shred of evidence that Elliot beat his girlfriend then he should be banned for much longer than 6 games. He's obviously a vile person, had multiple reports of him groping women at clubs and video evidence of him doing this and lifting girls tops up. Bold move by Goodell though to piss off Kraft and Jerry Jones in consecutive years, probably the 2 most powerful owners in the league"

"Oh and Shorty, I proposed a trade to you weeks ago, can you please have a look at it and let me know before the season starts."

"Quite a few are doing this these days. Think they are all realising there is a life after football and it's not worth being a cripple for the rest of it. Especially when you read stories about the struggle some of them have just getting out of bed. If you're not earning the big bucks and you can have another decent career, is it really worth it? In other news I see various bodies of people between them are making an absolute hash of the Elliot situation."

"very strange shit going on with our second year safety sua cravens. really good prospect who had a decent rookie year, picks up a knee injury in pre season and now wants to retire"

Season kicks off tomorrow night! Patriots hanging the banner and hosting the chiefs. Week 1 Acca Pats - 6.5 Cardinals -2 Steelers -8 Rams -3.5 Panthers -5 Giants +4 Broncos -3.5 Pays about 70/1

"The Cutler era has begun. First possession, coughs it up with minimal contact, 3 plays later we are 7-0 down."

Pre season games mean even less in the NFL than they do in the Premiership. Now I should really think about putting Harry Kane in my fantasy team.

they could suspend the whole of their offense yet still beat us going on last night's showing. we were beyond poor

Gotta laugh. Daft the Cowgirls stud. And this happens. Could be worse. You could support them. Go GMen.

Some breaking news fantasy fans... Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott is suspended for 6 games for violating the league's personal-conduct policy (domestic abuse). He has 3 days to appeal. The Bills have traded wide receiver Sammy Watkins to the Rams. The Eagles have traded wide receiver Jordan Matthews to the Bills.

what it refers to is all your draft picks in regard to the average round they're being drafted in throughout all the league's on nfl.com and that total number divided by fifteen :.)

Thanks TM for that table...I have no fuckin clue what it means ;)

"will depend on what happens wth Jimmy G, if they can keep him long term they may dominate for another 10 years, if McDaniels has learnt enough from Bill to take over"

Sexy Rexy was the nearest to making any inroads on the Pats. And that ain't saying much. It won't change anytime soon either.

"I do think having the Patriots in the division has forced the other 3 teams into some very strange moves to try and catch them. There has been some years where they have had a few half decent teams rise up to challenge them in the division - the jets went to back to back AFC championship games not too long ago, but yeah in general the Pats have had a very cushty division, even though they always seem to lose as many games in their division as they do outside of it."

That evil genius. Emperor Belichick is strong with the Dark Side. And there isn't a Camcorder in sight.

the Pats can put out a second string and win all their divisional games

"Talk about Christmas coming early for the ""Pats."" Cutler to the Fins.! There is no way on Gods creation how anyone can argue that the AFC East is a competitive division.?"
