UConn in the NFL

[Husky25]

SMH Tim Boyle looks horrible. Three picks vs Tampa's 4th qtr backups tonight. Anytime I've seen him play he's barely serviceable - I don't know how he stays in the league.

He's a seven year veteran, with six credited seasons, if I understand the system correctly. He doesn't have F-U money but he'll live comfortably for the rest of his life, with little NFL wear and tear. I'm sure he wants to keep playing, but if he's not picked up come Labor Day, he has has a ton of NFL knowledge and will find a place in the sport if he wants it. Then he can start drawing a $1,000,000/year NFL pension at 55 years old.

$8.2M so far with a possibility of up to $1.25M this season. I am consistently blown away that there are not 32 people on this planet who can competently play QB at the NFL level. It is such a unique skill set.

The pride of the University of Maine!

We all take credit when an ex-player does well. But, that Boyle was an Eastern Kentucky product!

Boyle would make about $5-$6 k/month at 55

Bills' rookie ranks among NFL's best for Preseason Week 1 effort vs. Giants

The Buffalo Bills' rookie offensive lineman was dominant in first preseason game of the season.

www.si.com

-> In the Bills' preseason opener against the Giants, Lundt logged 32 pass protection snaps, not allowing a single pressure, tying him for second among rookie offensive linemen after the first week of NFL preseason games.

-> We know at the point of the game Lundt was getting those snaps, was late and against other rookies, and third or fourth string players, who most likely won't survive cutdown day. Still, it's good to see the rookie dominate when given the opportunity, which could lead to additionally snaps against higher quality players. Test the young lineman, and see just how good he could be. <-
