What are they thinking?! We examine free agency
The consensus is that the 2010 free-agent pool is not a great place to go swimming this year. But that hasn't stopped the NFL from spitting out winners (like New England's Vince Wilfork) and losers (like 49ers fans). We examine the thought process behind several big moves so far.
531 players hit FA market in capless 2010 The NFL's capless 2010 free-agency period got underway Friday, first with a bloodletting as teams unloaded high-priced veterans, and then with big signings. Most notably, the Bears landed Julius Peppers for $80M. Here's a look at some notable early moves.

The near dynasty: the Greatest Show on Turf The Rams are on the clock with the No. 1 pick in the April draft after a disastrous 1-15 season.

Stop running back abuse! There's an abuse problem that plagues pro football. It's not steroids, gun crime, blow, syphyllis or a BrettFavre-style speedball of Seagrams VO and Vicodin. No, it's the abuse of running backs, and LT is just the latest example of a two-decade trend that has ruined some of the NFL's greatest players.
LT: the old gray mule just ain't what he used to be NFL teams treat their stud running backs the way poor Dust Bowl farmhands used to treat their rented mules: riding them hard until the poor old plowhorse slows to a crawl, then keels over and dies before their time is through. LT is the latest example of a young stud ridden too hard.
