2011 Is NFL Getting To Soft?

It things like this that makes me feel that the NFL is going down the drain. This is a perfectly clean hit nothing Suh could of done when he was already in the tackle motion. And he was fined… for how much you say? $20,000. That’s right. I don’t think the NFL actually cares about defense. What happened to playing hard nose football and laying the wood on offensive players? Now you have to stop and think about laying a hit on a guy and try and hit inside a small tackling box. This isn’t Major League Baseball. Come on NFL toughen up and let the defense play. They make millions of dollars they know what dangers they are getting themselves into. Please get back to football and or we’ll end up watching NFL and they all have flags on. No Fun League

2012 NFL Draft: Top 5Wide Receiver Rankings

1. 1. Alshon Jeffery*, WR, South Carolina

   Height: 6-4. Weight: 233.
   Projected 40 Time: 4.50.
   Projected Round (2012): Top 10 Pick.
   Alshon Jeffrey enters the college football season as the top receiver. He is extremely tall and athletic, with the speed to beat defensive backs all day. He is a physical beast. As a freshman he caught 46 passes for 763 yards and six touchdowns. Last year, he dominated the SEC with 88 receptions for 1,517 yards and nine touchdowns. Jeffrey put up that massive production with an average quarterback, Stephen Garcia, and an offense that featured a strong running game with freshman tailback Marcus Lattimore. Jeffrey should be a high first-round pick in 2012.

2. Justin Blackmon*, WR, Oklahoma State
   Height: 6-1. Weight: 208.
   Projected 40 Time: 4.48.
   Projected Round (2012): Top 15 Pick.
   Justin Blackmon would have been a first-round pick had he declared for the 2011 NFL Draft. Blackmon had an amazing season where he was a constant source of big plays for the Cowboys. He hauled in 111 passes for 1,782 yards and 20 touchdowns. He made everyone at Oklahoma State forget about Dez Bryant. In every game that Blackmon played in 2010 he went over 100 yards. Blackmon has fabulous quickness and speed. That allows him to constantly get separation from defensive backs. He has quality size and hands to go along with that speed. If he can avoid an injury, Blackmon should have another banner season with signal-caller Brandon Weeden, and that should solidify Blackmon’s stock as a top 16 pick.
3. Jeff Fuller, WR, Texas A&M
   Height: 6-3. Weight: 215.
   Projected 40 Time: 4.49.
   Projected Round (2012): 1-2.
   The Aggies had a great junior season from wide receiver Jeff Fuller. He caught 76 passes for 1,066 yards and 12 touchdowns. Fuller is a big physical receiver that presents a large target and can catch anything for his quarterbacks. He works the short and intermediate part of the field well. He looks like he would be a very good chain-mover and possession receiver in the NFL.
4. Michael Floyd, WR, Notre Dame
   Height: 6-3. Weight: 228.
   Projected 40 Time: 4.51.
   Projected Round (2012): 2.
   From a talent and production Floyd is a first-round pick, but off-the-field concerns could push him down into the second round. Most recently Floyd had a DUI arrest in the spring that caused him to be suspended from the team. He was reinstated, and is on track to play in 2011. Last year, he caught 79 passes for 1,025 yards and 12 touchdowns. Floyd had a quality sophomore season playing in only seven games across from Golden Tate. In 2009, he caught 44 passes for 795 yards and nine scores. He has good speed to go along with his size and is a polished receiver. Floyd is adept at jump balls and has excellent body control for a big receiver. If he can stay out of trouble, he could be huge value in the second round.
5. Juron Criner, WR, Arizona
   Height: 6-4. Weight: 210.
   Projected 40 Time: 4.58.
   Projected Round (2012): 2.
   Juron Criner decided to return for his senior season with the Wildcats. It was probably a good decision as some personal issues had some wondering if he would play in the 2011 season. Criner showed up for camp on time and allegedly is not dealing with off-the-field issues. Last season, Criner had a massive year for Arizona. He caught 82 passes for 1,233 yards and 11 touchdowns. He repeatedly bailed out quarterback Nick Foles on deep passes that were tossed up for grabs. Criner uses his size, body control, and leaping ability to come down with some big catches. There are faster receivers than Criner, but he provides good hands with a big target and still runs well.
