And Gates, the fourth-rounder, was even further from being ready than advertised. Ireland does have a good reputation among his fellow talent evaluators. Charley Casserly of CBS, who had long GM stints with Washington and Houston, and longtime Cowboys...
Casserly had an authoritative tone on CBS' NFL pregame show. Unfortunately, he could sound like a doctor calmly explaining terrible results from your medical tests — which seemed jarring in the often-breathless world of NFL TV reporters. With pregame...
Here's why I'm excited about (Tampa) ... First of all, Mark Barron, I thought this guy was the seventh-best player in the draft — a Pro Bowl player. This guy can cover, he can hit, he can do it all. And then, Doug Martin. They get him at the end of the first round. This guy reminds me of Ray Rice. That'...
Updated with comment from NFL Network spokesman.) CBS has hired Jason La Canfora away from the NFL Network to join the “The NFL Today” studio crew as the NFL Insider, replacing Charley Casserly, who is not being brought back. The rest of the studio team...
Getty Images CBS is making a change in its NFL pregame show. Jason La Canfora, who’s currently at NFL Network, will become the reporter on The NFL Today , the CBS Sunday morning pregame show. Although CBS didn’t mention this in its announcement, PFT has...
Barkley and Landry Jones are two of the top prospects for the 2013 draft. Charley Casserly scouts both quarterbacks. More ... Jones was not cleared for the Giants' three-day rookie minicamp this week, and the Post reported he probably won't be cleared...

He had a poor work ethic in college, which definitely translated into the NFL. He never showed a desire to improve, and he clearly did not improve the Texans' lowly pass-rush as he was drafted to do so. He totaled just two sacks in 38 starts over a...
NFL Network’s Charley Casserly joined Bull & Fox to talk about the bounty punishments handed down to both current and former Saints players, what’s being said around the league regarding the whole bounty situation, Trent Richardson’s potential, the addition...

We’ve all done it, so you have to be disciplined not to do it ... You don’t want to reach for a mid-round player, because a third-round pick has only a 30 percent chance of starting after four years.
If I were still running a draft, I know there are some teams I'm going to call or expect a call from ... Baltimore and Philadelphia are usually aggressive. A lot of teams will call, but not everyone is as willing to make a deal like them.
Every time you have a draft, it seems like the next one is the most important, but I do think getting some help along the offensive line would seem to be an important initiative for them
I think if Blackmon is there, I would take him
When you look at his junior tape, it's much better ... His motor was good, his production was good, you liked the way he was coming off the ball. As a senior, he lined up more over tackle and didn't play well in it.
It’s crucial to have that second guy
They always felt, if the team had one (good) receiver, they could take that guy out of the game, regardless of how good he was
Quinton Coples is kind of the consensus top guy but he played better at tackle than when he played end ... Disappointing senior year, why? I’m not sure. I thought they played him different, too. When you gave him space to operate and one direction to go in, that’s when he seems to play his best. I think...
I can tell you that there are NFL players who have been to Pro Bowls who had single-digit test scores.
Harrison Smith of Notre Dame, big guy, smart, can run, aggressive but sometimes misses tackles, has a little tightness but I think he can cover tight ends OK
Everybody loves this guy ... Safeties can go in the top 10, we know that. I think this guy after you take those top six guys – and you could make an argument this guy is better than some of those six guys – you could put him next. Somewhere in there someone is going to get a heck of a player.
It’s a very thin draft for tight ends, not very good at all and not much depth
Coby Fleener is an Aaron Hernandez type guy
I don’t know if it’s as deep as others think
And there has never been a lot of trades and one of the reasons is because draft picks are about all you have to trade
Now you get a younger player that counts less on your (salary) cap ... It's not that they're saving money, it's that they're saving cap space and that's huge.
I kind of liked Rivers coming out and I imagine the Giants had a pretty good rating on him and that's their biggest need ... So I'm sure the Giants had him rated high enough that a fifth-rounder wasn't much in their minds.
You know going in Mike is going to have an opinion and he's going to be realistic ... When you're negotiating with Mike, you've got to get straight to the point. He doesn't want you to waste his time or your time. Ron Wolf was like that. If you talked trade more than two minutes with Ron Wolf, that was ...
Obviously we all gave them high marks for the Carson Palmer trade
And there are only seven of them. When you have people say, 'We want to build through the draft,' then you don't want to give up the picks and that makes it tougher. If you want to get something for a player with a big contract instead of cutting him, the acceleration into the salary cap prevents you fr...
I think we came out of that one pretty well
I struggle with the guy ... He’s got speed but he’s not a big guy and he plays like a small guy, too. He goes down easy. Maybe I’m not seeing him right but that’s kind of my opinion of him. I have great value for a guy like Sproles who was more physical and ran inside. I see a different guy in Sproles. ...
