Baltimore Beatdown — In an NFL filled with former collegiate dual-sport-stars such as Antonio Gates, Tony Gonzalez, and Jimmy Graham he Baltimore Ravens hope to add another name to the list of basketball players who transformed into football-stars by signing Ole Miss power forward, Murphy Holloway.

Former Browns TE Benjamin Watson Signs 3-Year Deal With the Saints

Dawgs By Nature — The Cleveland Browns have officially moved past the Benjamin Watson era at tight end, as Watson signed a three-year deal with the New Orleans Saints on Monday. The pairing of Watson and Jimmy Graham in New Orleans will no doubt be music to the ears of Drew Brees. The Saints arguably have one of, if not the best, tight end tandems in the NFL.
