The realest people, however, often have the most trouble changing, Mr. President, and isn't that the ultimate danger for Griffin? If he's to succeed, mustn't he change? A little? In several ways? That's the final point I hope you'll make with him. Tell him to listen to his body more, his sponsors less. Tell him to tell his story -- freely, generously, fearlessly, holding nothing back -- the way he plays. Don't tell him for my sake, or your sake, or even his sake, Mr. President. Tell him for the sake of the man at the bus stop. JR Moehringer(via ESPN the Magazine)

Tim Tebow Cut By Jets 3 weeks, 3 days ago | Tipped by Quickish |

#tim tebow +3

*Jets make Tebow release official. Rex: "We have a great deal of respect for Tim Tebow. Things did not work out the way we all had hoped." (NFL.com's Ian Rapoport)

*Jets not limiting Tebow's market by cutting now. Would have taken anything for him for months. Market didn't exist. (ESPN.com's Chris Sprow)

*Once Tebow clears waivers- seems like a certainty- he's a free agent. Signing low $ deal and agreeing to position switch might be only shot (CBSSports.com's Jason LaCanfora)

*Tebow will hit the waiver wire at 4 p.m. today. I'm sure if "the waiver wire" were a place, we'd have a reporter, crew and live truck there. (NFL.com's Albert Breer)

*Can Mark Sanchez play upback on the punt team? (SmartFootball's Chris Brown)

*I'm so happy right now. Like, the kind of happy Nero was when he saw the flames and picked up a violin. (SBNation's Spencer Hall)

Geno Smith to Jets, Manti Te'o to Chargers 3 weeks, 5 days ago | Tipped by Quickish |

#nfl draft +6

There are only two endings to the Geno Smith story. It’s either sadness or euphoria. You search for the latter – the Jets got a possible franchise-caliber quarterback at an affordable price – but it would be nice if just one Jets decision came without ominous rumblings, built-in doubts, flashing yellow traffic arrows pointing the way to doom. You wish their new quarterback did not chafe at the New York and national media spotlight before his formal introduction. You wish there was any evidence of a nurturing environment. Mike Tanier(via SportsOnEarth.com) , adding: "We don’t have to wonder how the Te’o story ends. It’s over. Ladies and gentlemen, the new inside linebacker of a small-market team. Nothing to see here. And that can be a good thing."

NFL Draft Hangover 3 weeks, 6 days ago | Tipped by Quickish |

#nfl draft +4

[Dion] Jordan is a symbol of this draft in one very prominent way; for whatever dreams his athleticism fosters in the hearts of general managers, he hasn't actually played all that great during his time at school....

The Bills need to be all-in with Manuel and use the rest of their draft to shore up holes on the offensive line and at receiver....

I don't think there was really a problem with [Sharrif] Floyd inasmuch as he was just second best on a bunch of draft boards, always very close to being chosen without being the guy until that 23rd pick. Compared to expectations, Floyd was the value pick of the first round. Bill Barnwell(via Grantland) , who concludes with a prediction about Manti Te'o: "Te'o will be best on a 4-3 team that's thin at middle linebacker, which leaves obvious targets in Cincinnati (37), the New York Giants (49), and Chicago (50)."

The NFL Draft's X-Factor: Tavon Austin 4 weeks ago | Tipped by Quickish |

#nfl draft +5

What’s most important, though, is that the players’ dynamism mirrors that of the league’s thinking. The increased complexity of NFL defenses has forced coaches to create game plans through which they can dictate terms. It’s the players who don’t fit traditional boxes who make that possible. And when Tavon Austin is the first skill player off the board tonight, it'll be no wonder why. Robert Mays(via Grantland) , on the versatile West Virginia receiver who has risen up draft charts to become a Top 10 lock.

The Best Story of the NFL Draft 4 weeks ago | Tipped by Quickish |

#nfl +5

Here is where Lattimore is right now: he is running. He is jumping and squatting and putting pressure on that leg that had been so savagely wrecked. After successful surgery by the famed sports orthopedist James Andrews, Lattimore has spent months upon months rehabilitating that knee. Steps in the pool have given way to moving over land, and a faraway chance has transformed into a focused ambition. Lattimore is going to try football again. Jason Gay(via Wall Street Journal)

Darrelle Revis Traded From Jets to Bucs 1 month, 1 day ago | Tipped by Quickish |

#nfl +6

I don't know whether this trade will end up being what any of the parties involved hope it will be. I just know that it's depressing to have something as wonderful as Darrelle Revis and then give it away for some unknown quantity. It's just too difficult to get another Darrelle Revis. Bill Barnwell(via Grantland)

Welker Reax: "Bad, Bad Decision" on 13/3/13 | Tipped by Quickish |

#nfl +6

The Patriots have made it abundantly clear that only Tom Brady is irreplaceable among players in their world. They're going to have to figure a way to tell the Irrepleaceable One how they let his favorite weapon get away after Brady did the team such a favor two weeks ago. Bad, bad decision by New England. Peter King(via SI.com)
