As much as people hate on it, I really like PFT. I use them for my normal football news site, not including Twitter.

[Mr. Scot]

If you're looking for who'll have it first, generally it's one of the "quick update" pages or one of the national Twitter feeds.

LaCanfora, Mortensen and Schefter seem to be the quickest off the draw from what I've seen. Glazer can be good too. His info is generally solid but he's not always the fastest to report it.

[Mr. Scot]

Feel free to mention others by the way, especially draft sites and such.

[Calculus Entropy]

This is a link from a deadskins forum but they have an extensive list of links to mockdrafts as well as the dates they were updated. Have used this as a place to get my mock draft fix for a couple of years. There might be other places that are not linked to an opposing team forum but I have found this one to be ok

http://www.walterfootball.com --- Decent Draft site, has pretty good mocks.
http://espn.go.com/nfl/draft --- Scouts Inc./ESPN's draft page. Really good draft day coverage.

i would add @ravensinsider to the twitter feed. he does a great job of keeping up with every team and will much of the time scoop a lot of the national guys. he's about as reliable as jay glazer, imo.

[rayzor]

btw...i've got twitter feeds from every team in the league and other natl guys that aren't listed above if anyone is interested. i've got at least 2 beat reporters for most of the teams.

i used it when i played ffb.

Sounds good :thumbsup:

That's something I've been meaning to do but never got around to it

@ravensinsider is fantastic. That guy really does a good job of keeping up with every single team, almost before the team's beat writers know.

[raleigh-panther]

Thanks Scott!

[Roger Dorn]

You need to add Brad Biggs twitter feed.

Maybe Casserly from CBS

[Mr. Scot]

Will add more later.

Some coaching news from different sources...

Legendary OL Coach Hudson Houck is retiring from the Cowboys. He'll be replaced by Bill Callahan.

Colts may hire the Eagles director of player personnel to be their new GM.

Per Adam Schefter, Sal Alosi - remembered for the famous tripping incident on the Jets sideline - will join Jim Mora's coaching staff in UCLA. Probably shouldn't surprise as Mora once had Alex Gibbs on staff. Guess he's okay with guys who have a rep for being a tad dirty.

LaCanfora expects the Falcons to lose at least one position coach on top of having already lost both coordinators. Thinks former Jags OC Dirk Koetter could get the Falcons OC spot. Glazer doesn't see the Falcons going after Mike Martz.

Alex Marvez speculates the Dolphons could take a look at Hue Jackson.

Speaking of the Dolphins, this from John Clayton: He thinks the longer the decision process drags out, the more likely it becomes that Jeff Fisher will ultimately choose Miami. That of course, would leave the Rams to pursue other candidates (like Rob Chudzinski)
