Looks like a birth mark to me.  Who gets a bruise like that? Starting to understand why he has such insane vertical leap looking at his legs.  They don't even look real!

I'm also amazed at the difference between his calves and his thighs.

Without wanting to sound like a homo i have never seen a pro athlete with thighs like that and such skinny calves.  Really does explain what he did on national tv on the late night show last year though in a suit.  His explosive power and power/weight ratio must be off the charts.

The Houston Texans will be on Hard Knocks this year

always a good watch.

wonder who will be a focus of attention?

Seems to be be taking an age for the Nfl  season to come around.Anybody backing anything early doors?My early prediction is Jimmy Graham will be a bust in Seattle after seeing the afc north last season keep him on the line of scrimmage.

Reports from OTAs have been very positive about him, from what I've read, although pinch of salt and all that.

I am looking for a big price on the Giants this year. Seems to me they've made smart signings and I just wonder whether they could be a neat underdog.

As a Bills fan, I'm eager to see what we can do this season. That whole AFC East has got nasty all of a sudden. It's going to be like the AFC North five years ago and a complete sea change from last season. The AFC has improved as a whole and I reckon a 9-7 team will get a wildcard spot this year.

Bengals to stave off some of the injury crises this year and take the North by at least one game.

Afc East looks a cracking division Tal bet your excited being a Bills fan at the progress their making.10-6 for both teams would be a fantastic return.

Think Mike Zimmer will work some magic with the Vikings but haven't had the courage yet to put my money on.

had a good long look at the giants, because i too liked the draft and free agency this offseason

worried about that OL though. if Eli has ants in his pants his accuracy is a problem. thought flowers was overdrafted.

clearly OBJ is going to be a superstar though, and if they can protect eli well then better times are clearly ahead

So Mathis has left the Eagles. Who wants a pro bowl guard? First things first, who has any money?

Detroit, Washington, Atlanta and Jacksonville would love some protection for their quarterback. Add to that list Minnesota, Tennessee and Tampa Bay, who really need their QBs to step up this year.

Buffalo have spoken to him in the past, but I would expect he'll want a fee near $6m and the Bills don't really have that to give.

Is he the best free agent left? And where is he going?

[TightEnd]

i was going to suggest the NY Giants for Mathis. stay within the division, close-ish to philly. NYG offensive line still needs talent still


saw this today Drew Rosenhaus says 'at least a half a dozen' teams are interested in Evan Mathis http://at.nfl.com/b6i6w8L
