Chicago Bears Needs: OL, WR, RB, QB, DL Between inconsistent play, injuries and free agency, the Bears need a complete retooling on offense. Both starting receivers, Bernard Berrian (Vikings) and Muhsin Muhammad (Panthers), left via free agency.

Denver Broncos Needs - LT, DT, KR/PR, WR, CB With the retirement of Matt Lepsis, the Broncos absolutely had to have a left tackle of the future out of this draft. Pair that with the loss of Javon Walker and a dismal run defense in which much of the blame was placed on the defensive line,... »

DJ Williams-Denver Broncos Confirmation of what I suspected for the last couple months occurred yesterday. DJ Williams informed the football world that he will be returning to the weak side. I warned you in an earlier FBJabber piece that DJ was a perfect Sell High candidate. However, his drop in value will not be as... »
