NFL: Where will the top Pro-Bowlers go- List of 4 NFL Pro-Bowlers and where they could end up
National Football Leagues training camp is going to take place soon and some noticeable players are still without a home. Majority of them are just a headache to the NFL, however, there are several Pro Browlers still on the market. Nevertheless, there are rumours and speculation surfacing everyday about what teams they might end up in.
This list consists of predications relating to the top 4 NFL Pro Bowlers and what team they are likely to land in:
Jamarcus Russell is a player who created major waves in the NFL, when he was drafted in 2007 by the Oakland Raiders, but sadly this year the 6’6” quarter back has no home to go to, after he got charged of using drugs last month. New Orleans Saints who were considering signing Jamarcus rejected him, Saints head coach Sean Payton said "now would not be the right time” to sign him. Jamarcus is known for his cutting edge performance on field but lately he had been lacking the energy he used to have three years from now. Football analysts say his NFL days might be over for a year or two.
However, the United Football League (UFL) has spoken and they are keen on drafting Jamarcus Russell, experts say he could certainly have rebirth in the new league and could become triumphant if he gets back into shape.
Brian Westbrook is another Pro Bowler on the market; he was drafted in 2002 by the Philadelphia Eagles. His contract ended last year and since then he has not been offered a contract by any team because he is known to be injury prone. Although rumours have it that Westbrook has been hitting the gym and been practicing really hard, if this turns out to be true, experts say it won't be long when franchises would start offering him deals worth millions. Brian plays as the running back, and that position requires a lot of physical strength, as well as mental strength due to the heavy punishment they take to almost every part of their body.
The Green Bay Packers, New England Patriots and Cleveland Browns are all looking for running backs this year, and Brain could very well fit in one of the teams i.e. if he gets back into shape on time.
Terrell Owens has been selected as Pro Bowl six times; he played for the Buffalo Bulls as their wide receiver before joining other players in the free-agency this year. Owens is considered to be one of the best wide receiver that has come to the league in past ten-years. However, NFL teams seem to be appalled by the great player due to his disruptive behaviour on and off the field. On the other hand, football experts seem to believe that Owen still has a lot to offer to the league, however, he might not be considered as the starter for any team but he can certainly be worked around being the solid number two or three.
Terrell has already been rejected by more than 15 teams but franchises like New England Patriots and Washington Redskins really need to rebuild their team and could use a veteran player like Owens.
Adalius Thomas played for the Baltimore Ravens before joining the New England Patriots in 2007, he was thought to be the best outside linebackers in the NFL but his days of glory came to an end after he left the Ravens. He was known for his brisk attitude and explosiveness on the field but that was all in the past. Now Thomas has considerably slowed down and not many teams want to welcome him. Experts say he will have to settle for a low salary based on talent alone. Rex Ryan his former coach has already boldly stated that he is not interested in re-singing Adalius. Although there are rumours going on about the New York Jets and Cleveland Browns showing interest in the deteriorating player.
Thomas has been selected as a Pro Bowler 2 times, once in 2003 and 2006 and All-Pro selection in 2006 respectively.
