This place is lousy with Cowboys fans. I'm surrounded by them. Ex #1, my daughter (the cowboys blame falls squarely on her mother) and my current GF. Only two of those are obnoxious. I doubt I need to point out the offender... :deadhorse: ... besides, my real problem is somewhere between 2 1/2 to 3 feet south of my chin... :whistle:

To be sure, but remember that when you're young and have millions in the bank, that earlier motivation to excel can slip away from certain types. The players @jrry32 listed above may have fallen into that trap.

I'm guessing it's tough for scouts and GM's to measure that intangible quality of a hard work ethic even after a player's bank account has been fattened. Hope Aaron Donald doesn't succumb to that once he's paid.

There's no doubt there. It is likely more common than not. Work ethic is the most important tool we can possess. Without it, you can't maximize the usage of all your other tools.

Just read the Bears and Jets now have no players left from their 2010 playoff team.

Report: Broncos upset with decision to cut T.J. Ward

Von Miller hoped the chatter was fake news. The end result could be that the Broncos have a real problem.

James Palmer of NFL Media reports that Ward’s now-former teammates are upset with the decision to release the three-time Pro Bowl safety. It was obvious the move was coming earlier this week, when the Broncos started making calls about trading Ward. But until it happened, other Broncos players could brush it off as rumors or idle chatter or, yes, fake news.

As Palmer notes, Ward was “loved” in the locker room and regarded as a leader on the team. But that $4.5 million salary dragged him down, especially since the Broncos had younger, cheaper options that, in the view of the football operation, can get the job done.

Ward now becomes a free agent, able to sign with any other team. The question becomes whether someone else will offer him anything close to $4.5 million for 2017.
