A moment of sadness overshadowed Texas Tech’s pro day. OT Rylan Reed started out the workout exceptionally well, measuring in at 6-foot-5 ½, 309 pounds. He then had 41 bench press reps — a tally that would have put him No. 1 among all athletes at the NFL Scouting Combine last month.

Torry Holt, once considered an elite wide receiver in fantasy football, has been released by the St. Louis Rams.
One of the league’s most consistent wideouts in his prime, Holt posted six consecutive seasons with 1,300-plus yards and scored double-digit touchdowns three times from 2003-2006. Numbers like that made him a surefire No. 1 fantasy wideout in all leagues.

One of the most interesting prospects at Boston College’s pro day was LB Brian Toal. At 6-0 1/4, 228 pounds, he probably doesn’t have the size to play linebacker at the pro level, but he is a good athlete.

Vikings quarterback Tarvaris Jackson found out that the team had acquired QB Sage Rosenfels about four days before the team officially announced the trade. The Star-Tribune reports that when Jackson heard the news, he was unfazed and actually looks forward to a little healthy competition.

Lost in the the excitement of Terrell Owens signing with the Bills is the fact that the team still hasn’t signed the man who will give Trent Edwards enough time to throw the ball in T.O.’s direction.

Twenty teams were represented to watch 16 prospects work out on FieldTurf. Carolina offensive line coach Dave Magazu and Miami offensive line coach Dave DeGuglielmo were in attendance.

You can’t look at Trent Green without thinking of Rodney Harrison and the tackle that knocked the quarterback out of the 1999 season and launched the storybook NFL career of Kurt Warner.
Posted: Thursday, March 12th, 2009 | Michael Fabiano Tags: Chris Johnson, LenDale White, Tennessee Titans
Chris Johnson was one of the more pleasant surprises in fantasy football last season, posting 43 receptions, 1,488 scrimmage yards and 10 total touchdowns. Based on a recent report in the Nashville City Paper, he should improve on those numbers in 2009.
