Big Ben Roethlisberger’s latest sexual harassment claim has once again gone away. Well, the charges at least. However, his off-the-field behavior could end up costing him his starting job in steel city.
According to NFL Net’s Jason La Canfora, Pittsburgh has internally discussed the possibility of trading their touchy-feely quarterback. While no specific team has placed a call yet, the front office is more than willing to listen to anyone who does pick up the phone.
Another NFL offseason means more wide receivers being traded. The latest being the disgruntled Brandon Marshall, who was shipped from Denver to Miami in exchange for a pair of draft picks. Geesh. Can anyone get along with wunderkind Josh McDaniels? But I digress.
Attempting to explain why NFL wide receivers are such pains in the asses is daunting, and pretty much useless. I’d need advanced psychology degrees and buckets of coffee before sitting down with any of these head cases. Lucky for me, I’m just a lowly blogger. I’ll leave the dissecting of childhood insecurities and diagnosing of bipolar disorders to the professionals.
Now that the Dolphins have traded for Brandon Marshall, they are actively shopping the ninth overall pick in the 2007 draft, wide receiver/return man Ted Ginn Jr. This should come as no surprise considering Ginn has accomplished very little in his three-year career, unless you count making the 2009 All-Butterfingers team due to his tendency to drop more balls than he catches.
Ginn was much heralded coming out of Ohio State. His blazing speed and penchant for making the big play had some scouts comparing him to Steve Smith. They couldn’t have been more wrong. The Dolphins, who were desperate for a wideout in ’07, reached for Ginn and are now suffering the consequences.
Screw the All-Pro and All-Rookie teams! The only team I really care about once an NFL season ends is the All-Butterfingers team. Ya know, the guys who make a habit of dropping the ball, rather than catching it. Well, the 2009 squad has been revealed and it’s chock-full of greasy handed receivers. Let’s take a peek, shall we.
The list is based on guys with at least 40 touches, be it catches or drops. The percentages equate to how often each player dropped the ball.
