Philadelphia, PA (SportsNetwork.com) - A capsule look of the major needs and a possible course of action for the AFC teams in the 2014 NFL Draft, which will take place at New York's Radio City Music Hall from May 8-10.
Buffalo (6-10)
Top Needs: OT, WR, LB, S
First Three Picks: No. 9, No. 41, No. 73
Number of Selections: 6 (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7)
Buffalo probably wouldn't mind adding another standout linebacker next to 2013 rookie star Kiko Alonso, but it might be a better idea at this point to build up around second-year quarterback E.J. Manuel in order to help the former Florida State star speed up his development.
The Bills could be in the position to snare a franchise left tackle with the ninth overall pick, either Texas A&M's Jake Matthews or Michigan's Taylor Lewan, depending on how things shake out.
Another option could be selecting the best wide receiver left on the board, especially if Matthews' teammate with the Aggies -- lengthy wideout Mike Evans -- falls. The 6-foot-5 Evans would project as a complement to Stevie Johnson and could add to an impressive young core which also includes second- year players Robert Woods and Marquise Goodwin.
Safety is also an issue after losing a Pro-Bowl talent like Jairus Byrd in free agency but the best back-end defenders in this process -- Alabama's Ha-Ha Clinton-Dix and Louisville's Calvin Pryor -- aren't worthy of the ninth overall slot.
Miami (8-8)
Top Needs: OL, RB, TE, DT
First Three Picks: No. 19, No. 50, No. 81
Number of Selections: 7 (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7)
Miami is coming off a controversy-filled campaign which ultimately resulted in offensive tackle Jonathan Martin leaving the team after being bullied by linemate Richie Incognito and others.
Head coach Joe Philbin survived the embarrassing scandal but is likely on a short leash considering owner Stephen Ross 86ed embattled general manger Jeff Ireland in favor of Dennis Hickey and gave Hickey full autonomy over all personnel matters.
One thing that is certain is the Fish need help on the O-line. Miami allowed a league-high 58 sacks and couldn't protect Ryan Tannehill with Martin and Incognito or without them. Miami started the rebuild up front by giving ex- Kansas City left tackle Branden Albert a monster deal, but more needs to be done.
Hickey could be bluffing but seems to love Alabama tackle Cyrus Kouandjio and his aggressive nature. Plenty of organizations have red-flagged Kouandjio (at least in the first round) for potential knee problems, but others have compared his skill set favorably to his former linemate with the Crimson Tide, D.J. Fluker, who the Chargers eventually took 11th overall in 2013.
Other potential targets at No. 19 could include Notre Dame left tackle Zack Martin, although he seems to be rising as draft day approaches, as well as athletic North Carolina tight end Eric Ebron or another Alabama stalwart, inside linebacker C.J. Mosley.
"I'm a big fan of Zack Martin as a player. If you look at any mock draft that's ever been constructed, it's mandatory that Zack Martin goes to Miami," NFL Network draft analyst Daniel Jeremiah said. "When you start putting these things together, you just kind of go, okay, he's there, they take him. I don't see how Miami could pass on him. He's too clean."
New England (12-4)
Top Needs: WR, TE, DT, OL
First Three Picks: No. 29, No. 62, No. 93
Number of Selections: 8 (1, 2, 3, 4, 4, 6, 6, 7)
It's time for New England to get a little bit younger at multiple positions but there is still plenty of shelf life left in the Bill Belichick-Tom Brady era.
All-Pro tight end Rob Gronkowski's health has to be a concern moving forward, and even if Gronk can stay on the field, New England would like to replicate the two-tight end offense it had when both Gronkowski and the now-jailed Aaron Hernandez were at their peaks.
Ebron is the best TE in this draft, an athletic marvel in the mold of a Vernon Davis. Some question his physicality and strength, however, so don't be surprised if he falls a bit on draft day. Whether Ebron is still around at No. 29, though, is a longshot so perhaps Texas Tech tight end Jace Amaro, a slot option in the mold of Hernandez, could be the more likely scenario.
Athletic Minnesota defensive tackle Ra'Shede Hageman also shapes up as a nice fit as would Notre Dame nose Louis Nix or a young offensive lineman like Nevada's Joel Bitonio or Virginia's Morgan Moses.
N.Y. Jets (8-8)
First Three Picks: No. 18, No. 49, No. 80
Number of Selections: 12 (1, 2, 3, 4, 4, 4, 5, 6, 6, 6, 6, 7)
Whether it's second-year man Geno Smith or veteran Michael Vick at quarterback for the New York Jets won't really matter unless the team continues to add playmakers around them.
Signing wide receiver Eric Decker and running back Chris Johnson during free agency was a good start but more work needs to be done, specifically getting a true burner on the outside and a legitimate seam threat at tight end.
With the 18th overall pick, Ebron looks like a terrific fit. Of course no matter how much Vick and or Smith will want another skill position difference- maker, it's hard to imagine Rex Ryan going into a season with Dimitri Patterson as a possible starter at cornerback. So, also keep an eye on outside defenders like Bradley Roby, the kind of big, press corner who could excel in a Ryan defense.
"We remain open minded," Jets general manager John Idzik said. "We're going to evaluate each pick and the players that are available to us at that pick, and we'll pick who we think is the best player."
Baltimore (8-8)
Top Needs: OL, S, WR
First Three Picks: No. 17, No. 48, No. 79
Number of Selections: 8 (1, 2, 3, 3, 4, 4, 5, 6)
Just over a year removed from the franchise's second Lombardi Trophy, the Ravens believe their path back to the top runs through their offensive line and defensive backfield.
Baltimore averaged an NFL-low 3.1 yards per rush last season, particularly struggling at center after Matt Birk's retirement and at left tackle, at least until Eugene Monroe came over in a trade from Jacksonville. Over on defense, a year after drafting Matt Elam with the 32nd overall pick, the Ravens need a presence next to him at the safety position.
Baltimore re-signed Monroe but lost Michael Oher to Tennessee and really have limited options at right tackle. Former Tampa Bay center Jeremy Zuttah, meanwhile, was brought in to replaced the overmatched Gino Gradkowski in the pivot.
If general manager Ozzie Newsome decides to go O-Line at No. 17 overall, keep an eye on Notre Dame's Martin, a position-versatile player who is regarded as one of the safest picks in this draft. Other options could be Kouandjio of Alabama, as long as his problematic knee checks out, or Virginia's Morgan Moses.
In the defensive backfield the Ravens wanted to upgrade opposite Elam anyway, but James Ihedigbo's exit to Detroit only magnifies things. Kouandjio's teammate with the Crimson Tide, Clinton-Dix, has the range and ball skills to be a playmaker early in his career, but is unlikely to be on the board. Pryor could be, though, and is a nice fallback.
Wide receiver is probably the third position Newsome will be weighing seriously and the depth there could force his hand. Players like Odell Beckham Jr. of LSU, Oregon State's Brandin Cooks as well as lengthy Florida State prospect Kelvin Benjamin and USC standout Marqise Lee could present a favorite flavor scenario for Ozzie.
Cincinnati (11-5)
Top Needs: CB, OL, DE
First Three Picks: No. 24, No. 55, No. 88
Number of Selections: 9 (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 6, 7, 7)
The Cincinnati Bengals are still searching for that elusive first playoff win in the Marvin Lewis era despite reaching the postseason three consecutive times, a first in franchise history.
The team's ascent to playoff regular directly correlates with Andy Dalton's arrival at the quarterback position but the Red Rifle's subpar play in big moments has some wondering if the Bengals can take the next step with him.
Continuing to build the supporting cast around Dalton is what this draft will be about and the biggest priorities figure to be replacing defensive end Michael Johnson and offensive tackle Anthony Collins, who both fled to central Florida in free agency, as well as beefing up the cornerback position where Leon Hall is coming off an Achilles injury and Terence Newman will be 36 by next season.
Defensive end might be the thinnest position in this draft (although Missouri stalwart Kony Ealy and Auburn tweener Dee Ford both project as possible late first-round choices), while the top-tier offensive tackles figure to be gone by the time Cincinnati gets around to picking at No. 24 overall.
Corners like Jason Verrett of TCU and Roby may be around, though.
Cleveland (4-12)
Top Needs: QB, OL, RB, WR
First Three Picks: No. 4, No. 26, No. 35
Number of Selections: 10 (1, 1, 2, 3, 3, 4, 4, 5, 6, 7)
The Cleveland Browns unveiled their latest reboot in the offseason, restructuring their lightly regarded front office yet again by dropping two of the "three stooges" in CEO Joe Banner as well as general manager Mike Lombardi.
Ray Farmer, a former draft pick on Banner's watch in Philadelphia, has taken over the team's football operations in place of Lombardi. Meanwhile, off-the- radar candidate Mike Pettine, the ex- Buffalo defensive coordinator, was given the head coaching job only after others spurned the Browns and the culture Banner created by his firing of Rob Chudzinski, a Plan B choice himself after Chip Kelly chose Philadelphia over Cleveland last offseason.
A quick look at the Browns' current depth chart revels one gaping hole: the quarterback position. Journeyman Brian Hoyer and the nondescript Alex Tanney were the only players under contract until notable bust Vince Young and Tyler Thigpen were each recently inked after mini-camp tryouts.
None of those players is the answer, however, and Texas A&M signal caller Johnny Manziel, the most polarizing figure in this draft, could be in play at No. 4 overall.
Some scouts believe Manziel will turn into a superstar and others think he belongs nowhere near the first round. He flashed a better arm than advertised at his pro day, embraced the big stage and has already improved on what were some shoddy mechanics at times.
With two first-round picks Farmer could take his QB at No. 4 and then a complement to Josh Gordon at wide receiver with the 26th overall selection. Conversely he could flip things and snare Clemson wideout Sammy Watkins, certainly a higher-rated prospect than Manziel or Central Florida's Blake Bortles, early and address QB later.
"It's a players' league," Pettine said when talking about the draft. "When you look at it, coaches can only affect it so much. I think that it's critical for us. For the personnel department, (the draft is) their Super Bowl. It's absolutely critical that we have a solid draft."
Signal callers that could be available with the 26th pick include Fresno State's Derek Carr and Louisville's Teddy Bridgewater. Even LSU's Zach Mettenberger and Pitt's Tom Savage could sneak into the conversation.
"We talk about the 'it' factor a lot with quarterbacks, just that type of personality, those traits that you want to have in your quarterback," Pettine said. "(You want) a guy that is confident, assertive and poised, that can handle teammates when they need to be handled at things going on in the offensive huddle."
Pittsburgh (8-8)
Top Needs: CB, LT, DL, WR
First Three Picks: No. 15, No. 46, No. 97
Number of Selections: 9 (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 5, 6, 6, 7)
The Pittsburgh Steelers, owners of a record six Super Bowl titles, are a pedestrian 16-16 over the past two NFL seasons.
That kind of mediocrity hasn't been seen in the Steel City since the late 1990s and it's not the kind of thing people are used to in Pittsburgh.
The expiration date on Ben Roethlisberger's shelf life as a top-tier NFL quarterback is rapidly approaching so the Steelers and head coach Mike Tomlin must pull out all the stops in order to take advantage of the 32-year-old's remaining prime.
The most glaring deficiency in Pittsburgh is left tackle where former seventh- round pick Kelvin Beachum is currently penciled in to protect Roethlisberger's blind side.
If Notre Dame's Martin, a safe pick with a ton of position flexibility, remains on the board at No. 15 he might serve as a solid approach, as would Michigan's Taylor Lewan.
If both are gone, which is a distinct possibility, cornerbacks like Oklahoma State's Justin Gilbert and Michigan State's Darqueze Dennard are sure to be high on the Steelers' wish list.
Houston (2-14)
Top Needs: QB, OT, LB
First Three Picks: No. 1, No. 33, No. 65
Number of Selections: 11 (1, 2, 3, 4, 4, 5, 6, 6, 6, 7, 7)
If you want to talk about how precarious a shelf life in the NFL can be focus on south Texas where the Houston Texans morphed from a 12-4 division championship club into a 2-14 disaster in one calendar year.
Of course, the silver lining in finishing with the NFL's worst record is that the Texans and new coach Bill O'Brien possess the No. 1 overall pick in the upcoming draft, a nice building block to have as the club attempts its climb back toward relevancy.
One of the main reasons O'Brien was brought to the Lone Star State was to fix the quarterback problems but that doesn't mean it's a fait accompli the Texans will be taking a signal caller with the top overall selection, in fact that scenario remains highly unlikely.
If Las Vegas was handicapping the Texans' intentions, the draft's top two QBs -- Texas A&M stalwart Manziel and Central Florida star Blake Bortles -- would remain at the top of the list for O'Brien and general manager Rick Smith but not at No. 1.
The once-in-a-generation physical skills South Carolina defensive end Jadeveon Clowney brings to the table make him the obvious choice but there is a good chance that an Eli Manning-type situation could develop.
Manning was the consensus top choice in the 2004 draft but had no interest in playing for San Diego, which had the selection so the Chargers drafted him and traded Peyton's baby brother to the New York Giants on draft day in exchange for a haul which included Philip Rivers.
This time Clowney could be taken by the Texans with the intent on being traded to a team like Atlanta, which is in desperate need of a pass rusher and holds the No. 6 overall pick, a much more logical and less pressure-packed landing spot for a Manziel or Bortles.
The safety net is that Clowney would have no problem playing for Houston and teaming the potential superstar with J.J. Watt could produce the most dominating defensive line since the 1970s when units like Pittsburgh's Steel Curtain and Minnesota's Purple People Eaters ruled the NFL landscape.
The 6-foot-5, 266-pound Clowney is an overwhelming physical specimen, who ran the 40-yard dash at a blazing 4.53 seconds at the NFL Scouting Combine and showed off his explosiveness with a 37 1/2-inch vertical leap, along with a broad jump easily surpassing 10 feet.
Clowney proved to be speedier than either Cam Newton or Colin Kaepernick were when they invaded Indy for their workouts and his lone questionable number -- 21 reps on the 225-pound bench press -- was alleviated by the historical efforts elite pass rushers like Julius Peppers (22), Greg Hardy (21), Robert Quinn (22) and Aldon Smith (20) put up.
To be blunt, if there were no ancillary issues with Clowney, there would be no debate over who should be the No. 1 overall pick. His ceiling as a player is akin to the heights of Empire State Building, while the rest of an admittedly deep class fighting for the second-best prospect tag might reach Yao Ming stature.
Houston, though, officially moved on from Matt Schaub this offseason, dealing the veteran signal caller to Oakland for a late-round pick, and even though the Texans signed veteran Ryan Fitzpatrick, the 2014 starter will still likely come from this draft.
The Texans are well aware there are really only four elite prospects in this process and none of them play the game's most important position (Clowney, Auburn left tackle Greg Robinson, Buffalo OLB Khalil Mack and Watkins) so the first option remains to trade down with someone who wants to go all-in on Clowney.
Absent of that, though, O'Brien and general manger Rick Smith will be risking their reputations by choosing any player over Clowney.
"I don't exactly who we will take," Smith said. "What I do know is that I know the order of our board. I know that if we select first, it's a unique opportunity obviously to be the first pick. If we do select there, I know who we feel good about there. If we move, then obviously there are variables that come into play at that point. While I don't know exactly who we're taking, I think that we've done a nice job of valuing the board and we know how they fall."
Indianapolis (11-5)
Top Needs: CB, OC, WR
First Three Picks: No. 59, No. 90, No. 166
Number of Selections: 5 (2, 3, 5, 6, 7)
It's been two years and two 11-5 finishes with Andrew Luck as the quarterback in Indianapolis.
Now it's time to take the next step and become a legitimate Super Bowl contender, something made that much tougher by the fact that general manager Ryan Grigson traded the team's first-round pick in 2014 to Cleveland for disappointing running back Trent Richardson.
The Colts only have five selections in the upcoming draft and will not get a chance to pick, barring a trade, until the 59th overall choice yet they could use help at safety, linebacker and wide receiver.
Players with late-second-round grades who could be logical fits include USC center Marcus Martin or corners like Rice's Phillip Gaines and Utah's Keith McGill.
Jacksonville (4-12)
Top Needs: QB, DE, WR
First Three Picks: No. 3, No. 39, No. 70
Number of Selections: 11 (1, 2, 3, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6, 7)
Jacksonville is still looking for the answer at the game's most important position after pulling the plug on 2011 first-round pick Blaine Gabbert, sending the former Mizzou star to San Francisco to be Colin Kaepernick's new backup.
The Jags and second-year head coach Gus Bradley did re-sign Chad Henne as a bridge and an insurance policy, meaning they could bypass the position at No. 3 overall and look for the answer in the second round with the 39th overall selection.
If Houston declines a signal caller at No. 1 overall or trades down, it's more than conceivable Jacksonville would have its pick between the two top QBs in the draft, Bortles and Manziel.
Neither of those prospects, however, are worthy of being selected with the third overall pick and if the NFL truly is a copycat league as most surmise, the Jags have a leg up when it comes to emulating Seattle' terrific Super Bowl-level defense because Bradley was one of its architects.
That means a player like Mack, the Buffalo linebacker, could be in play.
The fact that Justin Blackmon is suspended moving forward also has to make Watkins a serious consideration.
Tennessee (7-9)
Top Needs: RB, CB, QB
First Three Picks: No. 11, No. 42, No. 112
Number of Selections: 6 (1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7)
Most observers in Nashville believe new head coach Ken Whisenhunt was brought in to help quarterback Jake Locker, not give up on him.
That said its's also conceivable that Whisenhunt digested the film on Locker and came to the conclusion he just isn't the answer, meaning the Titans could be a sleeper team in the first round when it comes to selecting a quarterback at No. 11 overall.
The most likely scenarios, however, remain running back where the team must replace former 2,000-yard rusher Chris Johnson, as well as defense, specifically the back seven.
The running back position as a whole has been devalued to such a degree that you simply can't justify taking one in the first round so a lot of people have Tennessee looking at UCLA linebacker Anthony Barr because Whisenhunt's defensive coordinator, Ray Horton, will be shifting toward a 3-4 attacking defense.
Physical corners, though, are also needed to pull off what Horton wants to accomplish and that position is a need in Music City after the Titans lost Pro Bowl cornerback Alterraun Verner in free agency. Conversely, Tennessee already picked up veteran Shaun Phillips to help on the edge.
All of that makes Dennard or Gilbert the most logical fits.
Denver (13-3)
Top Needs: OG, LB, RB, QB
First Three Picks: No. 31, No. 63, No. 95
If you were thinking the Denver Broncos' 43-8 thumping at the hands of the Seattle Seahawks in Super Bowl XLVIII would cause Peyton Manning to ponder his football mortality, think again.
The reigning NFL MVP, who turned 38 in March, surfaced in Denver last month for the first time this offseason, and flashed a sense of urgency highlighted by his organization's high-profile dealings in free agency.
"I feel that I have a responsibility to the team to be on top of my game," Manning said before his appearance as a guest speaker for the local Boy Scouts of America's annual sports breakfast. "That's what I think about every day when I lift weights and throw with my receivers -- doing my job to help the Denver Broncos."
A win in the big game had many speculating that Manning could stop playing and ride off into the sunset as a champion with his second Lombardi Trophy -- legacy stamped, a thought process fueled by the fact that the five-time MVP admitted he could see the "light at the end of the tunnel" of his playing career.
Only Manning knows if that's how things would have shaken out if Denver bested Seattle, but the Seahawks' rout ensured there would be no happy ending to his fairy tale, at least in 2014.
Any remaining doubts Manning would be back for another run at the game's ultimate prize ended in March when he was formally cleared to play after an exam on his surgically repaired neck.
Like most, Manning was very impressed by John Elway's handiwork in free agency which resulted in a haul that not only placed receiver Emmanuel Sanders in the Rocky Mountains but also high-profile defensive targets like pass rusher DeMarcus Ware, shutdown cornerback Aqib Talib and ascending young safety T.J. Ward.
Denver was always going to be a serious threat to get back to the Super Bowl as long as Manning returned, but by "winning" free agency, the Broncos have seemingly lapped an AFC field they were already dominating.
The shelf life of this group remains about as lengthy as that gallon of milk you picked up last night. The future isn't what this team is about, though.
"I think you could look at a couple different places," NFL Network draft analyst Daniel Jeremiah said when asked about Denver's draft plans. "Obviously Eric Decker is gone so you've got an opportunity to put another player in that offense with Peyton Manning to be successful.
"And then when you look on the defensive side of the ball, the linebacker to me, you could continue to add a linebacker in there. But this team, when you look at it, there's some teams where these needs just jump off the page and you go, okay, man, they literally can't line up and play a game unless they get this solved. This Bronco team is pretty deep."
Perhaps but one spot does stand out a bit. The loss of Zane Beadles in free agency means the Broncos are thin at guard opposite Louis Vasquez. Xavier Su'a Filo, the most experienced and NFL-ready member of UCLA's impressive O-line, might be a nice get with the 31st overall pick and he could step right in as a starter.
"I you're trying to add to that depth, I still say offensive line is still a spot they could take a look at," Jeremiah's colleague Charles Davis said. "The pressure Seattle bought to them in the Super Bowl to get in Peyton's face really, really hurt them."
Kansas City (11-5)
Top Needs: WR, OL, DE, S
First Three Picks: No. 23, No. 87, No. 124
Number of Selections: 6 (1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 6)
Turning two wins into 11 seems like a pretty significant achievement for Kansas City but a lot of the goodwill from that turnaround, which was architected by veteran coach Andy Reid, vanished during an ugly playoff implosion against the Indianapolis Colts.
Reid and his hand-picked general manager John Dorsey enter their second season in the Show Me State facing a much more difficult task. Kansas City isn't going to sneak up on anybody in 2014 and the last-place schedule is a thing of the past.
Another postseason run is certainly possible but only if some obvious needs can be addressed in the draft, most notably at wide receiver and on the offensive line where last year's top overall pick, tackle Eric Fisher, was a bit of a disappointment.
Quarterback Alex Smith gets a lot of criticism for being a game manager and failing to push the ball down the field, but one of the major reasons he didn't last season was because the Chiefs lacked a consistent downfield threat outside the numbers to pop the top on opposing defenses.
Picking at No. 23 means Kansas City could have a number of options with players like Beckham Jr., Lee or Cooks.
Beckham is the type of dynamic athlete who should be able to stretch a defense in time and offers a little more size than Cooks, a flat-out burner. Lee is a more polished prospect coming in but doesn't offer the kind of big- play ceiling the Chiefs will be looking for.
"(Andy Reid) likes to have guys that can stretch the field on the outside on offense, and with the depth we have at receiver in this draft, I would be shocked if there's not somebody there he thinks he could plug in that could really take the top off of their defense," NFL Network draft analyst Daniel Jeremiah said. "I think (adding a receiver) is going to benefit their running game tremendously, going to open things up in that offense."
Contingency plans could include Su'a-Fil or a potential difference-maker at safety like Northern Illinois thumper Jimmie Ward
Oakland (4-12)
Top Needs: QB, OL, DE, WR
First Three Picks: No. 5, No. 36, No. 67
Number of Selections: 7 (1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 7, 7)
The Oakland Raiders are seemingly always wild cards when it comes to the NFL Draft but 2014 could see the organization take a more conventional approach.
General manager Reggie McKenzie could go in a number of directions with the No. 5 overall pick and the Raiders are obviously one of a number of teams in the top five who are unsettled at the quarterback position. That said, Oakland could also use help on both lines as well as a big-play threat at receiver.
McKenzie brought a ton of money into the offseason and did a nice job plugging holes for the short-term, be it trading for veteran signal caller Matt Schaub or signing defensive lineman Justin Tuck, linebacker LaMarr Woodley and offensive tackle Austin Howard.
He and head coach Dennis Allen remain on very short leashes, though, so risking everything on a quarterback like Manziel or Bortles seems unlikely.
The added incentive to win now should turn Oakland toward a safer prospect and snaring Watkins is as secure as it gets in this draft. If Watkins is gone, that could mean Mack or Robinson would fall to No. 5 and both would serve as nice alternatives for the Raiders.
San Diego (9-7)
Top Needs: CB, WR, DL
First Three Picks: No. 25, No. 57, No. 89
Head coach Mike McCoy had a rather productive rookie season in San Diego, piloting the Chargers to the postseason and orchestrating an upset win in Cincinnati.
To build on that the Chargers have to improve on their 29th-ranked and AFC- worst pass defense.
The talent level simply has to be upgraded on the back end and a few corners with first-round grades may be available by the time San Diego gets its turn at No. 25 overall.
Verrett is undersized at 5-foot-9 but shapes up as a Captain Munnerlyn-type, a player who battles enough to compete on the outside during early downs before moving into the slot and becoming a difference maker on obvious passing downs.
Roby, meanwhile, could be dropping and in play thanks in large part to some off-the-field issues.

New York Power Authority Governance And Audit Committees To Meet November 15
Michael Saltzman
(914) 390-8181
November 10, 2011

Surgery vs. Rehab
Story Updated: Dec 31, 2012
..professional athletes hobbling around in pain after tearing their Achilles tendon. It happens in amateurs and non-athletes, too. In fact, the Achilles is the most commonly ruptured tendon in the body.
In most cases, the first order of business is surgical repair. It's been believed that surgery reduces the rate of re-ruptures.
But a new Canadian study suggests a more conservative approach can be just as effective.
Data were analyzed from 10 different studies, including more than 800 people who had torn their achilles. 4-hundred-18 had surgery...while 4-hundred-8 were treated non-surgically using casts, splints and sometimes physiotherapy.
Those treated using "functional" rehabilitation that worked on their early range of motion fared just as well as those who were operated on.
According to the data, the re-rupture rate for both treatment options was equivalent but the non-surgical approach produced fewer complications.
The catch, according to the researchers. patients who do not have access to advanced rehabilitation like this might still benefit best from surgery.

(BPT) - For most of us, checkups are a regular part of life. Dental visits, auto maintenance appointments and even glances in the bathroom mirror all help us catch potential problems and assure that all is � or will be � well. What�s true of teeth, engines and grooming is also true of finances: regular checkups are recommended.
Why? Changes both great and small affect the strategies people have developed to help achieve their financial goals. Unfortunately, too many people act as though once their financial program is in place their work is done. This isn�t so.
As a general rule, Thrivent Financial for Lutherans recommends that you should review your financial program at least once each year. Certain life changes � the birth or adoption of a child, a change in marital status (married, divorced, widowed), the death of a family member or changes to your health � should serve as reminders that a financial tune-up is in order. April is Financial Literacy Month, and serves as a good reminder to take a look at your finances and make sure changes over the past year haven�t altered any personal financial strategies that may be in place.
Other changes in personal economics can also have a huge impact on financial programs. These may include shifts in employment status or salary (e.g. loss of job or a pay cut/freeze), home ownership changes, significant changes in total assets or debt, the receipt of an inheritance, and tax law changes that can all make previous strategies obsolete.
How can you perform a financial checkup? �If you have a do-it-yourself mentality, there are any number of print and electronic resources that exist to help monitor your finances,� says Patrick Egan, a national retirement spokesperson with Thrivent Financial. �However, with the complexity and time commitment that may be involved, most can benefit from the knowledge, experience and insight that financial services professionals offer.�
Qualified financial professionals can help people evaluate their present financial strategies and keep abreast of new laws, regulations, products and economic developments. Even more important, financial professionals can challenge unrealistic assumptions people may have and help them overcome money management�s greatest threat: procrastination.
To live is to experience change. How and where change will appear is impossible to predict, but a financial checkup is one sure way to help your financial objectives � and your sense of financial confidence � keep pace with all that occurs.

Saracia S
I made quite a few washcloths with these patterns. Tried them all. You do not knit in the round but in pie sections around, like a clock. 8 sections per cloth. Sewing them together. Designs are nice. Easy to make and a good size. Seems complicated at first ... but be sure to read the pre-directions written on the first page BEFORE you start. You can use them to make doilies, as well, using a finer yarn and smaller needle.

Are drones legal or illegal? Right or wrong?
Imagine what it's like for the victim. Imagine a 28-year-old American-born man living in Yemen. It's early evening, and he's about to leave for a family outing. He ushers his wife and kids into the car and pulls onto the street. In an instant, a high-pitched whine shrieks down from the sky. He, his wife, his two sons and his daughter are blown up, wiped off the face of the earth by a U.S. drone remotely controlled from thousands of miles away.

The Secretary shall extend the primary term of a geothermal lease for 5 years if, for each year after the 10th year of the lease—
Additional extension
The Secretary shall extend the primary term of a geothermal lease (after an initial extension under paragraph (2)) for an additional 5 years if, for each year of the initial extension under paragraph (2), the Secretary determined under subsection (b) of this section that the lessee satisfied the minimum work requirements that applied to the lease for that year.
Requirement to satisfy annual minimum work requirement
In general
The lessee for a geothermal lease shall, for each year after the 10th year of the lease, satisfy minimum work requirements prescribed by the Secretary that apply to the lease for that year.
Payments in lieu of minimum work requirements
In lieu of the minimum work requirements set forth in subsection (b)(2) of this section, the Secretary shall by regulation establish minimum annual payments which may be made by the lessee for a limited number of years that the Secretary determines will not impair achieving diligent development of the geothermal resource, but in no event shall the number of years exceed the duration of the extension period provided in subsection (a) of this section.
Transition rules for leases issued prior to August 8, 2005
The Secretary shall by regulation establish transition rules for leases issued before August 8, 2005, including terms under which a lease that is near the end of its term on August 8, 2005, may be extended for up to 2 years—
Geothermal lease overlying mining claim
The lessee for a geothermal lease of an area overlying an area subject to a mining claim for which a plan of operations has been approved by the relevant Federal land management agency is exempt from annual work requirements established under this chapter, if development of the geothermal resource subject to the lease would interfere with the mining operations under such claim.
Termination of application of requirements
Minimum work requirements prescribed under this section shall not apply to a geothermal lease after the date on which the geothermal resource is utilized under the lease in commercial quantities.
Cooperative or unit plan for drilling operations; extension of term; renewal
Any lease for land on which, or for which under an approved cooperative or unit plan of development or operation, actual drilling operations were commenced prior to the end of its primary term and are being diligently prosecuted at that time shall be extended for five years and so long thereafter, but not more than thirty-five years, as geothermal steam is produced or utilized in commercial quantities. If, at the end of such extended term, steam is being produced or utilized in commercial quantities and the lands are not needed for other purposes, the lessee shall have a preferential right to a renewal of such lease for a second term in accordance with such terms and conditions as the Secretary deems appropriate.
"Produced or utilized in commercial quantities" defined
Except as otherwise provided for in this section, for purposes of this section the term "produced or utilized in commercial quantities" means the completion of a well producing geothermal steam in commercial quantities. Such term shall also include the completion of a well capable of producing geothermal steam in commercial quantities so long as the Secretary determines that diligent efforts are being made toward the utilization of the geothermal steam.

When a function is admitted to the logic, ACL2 tries to ``guess''
what type of object it returns. This guess is codified as a term
that expresses a property of the value of the function. For app
the term is
(OR (CONSP (APP X Y)) (EQUAL (APP X Y) Y))which says that
returns either a cons or its second argument.
This formula is added to ACL2's rule base as a type-prescription
rule. Later we will discuss how rules are used by the ACL2
theorem prover. The point here is just that when you add a definition,
the data base of rules is updated, not just by the addition of the
definitional axiom, but by several new rules.
You should now return to the Walking Tour.

Bringin' It Down A Notch Or Two PT 2
Written on March 4, 2003 Wrappin up the TCI Frontend at Temecula Rods & CustomsWell, I don't figure most of you were as anxious as I was to see the suspension upgrade on my '55 pickup get finished, as I had been driving around for a few months with an airbagged four-link rear and a parallel-leaf I-beam front--you can imagine the type of battle the two were having with each other! Since Total Cost Involved was pretty bogged down with their daily grind, the decision was made to have the TCI air-spring IFS installed by Brian Jendro and his crew at Temecula Rods & Customs. I've known Brian for many years (he actually bagged my '54 Chevy Bel Air almost 10-years ago), so the quality of his shop's work was never in question. We set aside a week in November, and the following documentation should be a good indication that everything went just as planned.
The removal of the stock front suspension revealed that at one point in the truck's history, a little fender-bender caused some tweaking in the left-side framerail. While the damage was ahead of where the TCI crossmember was to go, Brian didn't want any geometry problems; so some heat and a port-a-power were used to cure the situation. From there, it was simply a matter of following TCI's measurement references in the directions in order to locate and weld the three-piece crossmember in place. In those same directions, it states that the factory motor-mount crossmember need not be removed. Because it looked awkward and out of place, it was removed anyway and subsequently replaced with a mandrel-bent tubular piece. For more added strength, boxing plates are provided with the kit, but again, Brian went a step further and added plates from the crossmember forward, as well.
The remainder of the job primarily consisted of installing components for the running brake and airbag lines, reconfiguring the steering (with Borgeson joints and an RB's Obsolete Column Saver), and making sure everything fit and functioned properly--which it did. The last order of business was to get the truck properly aligned, but before doing that, we had to figure out just where we wanted the frontend at ride height (this is where pressure gauges are necessary--but not always perfectly accurate). With all said and done, I was left with a nice 50-mile drive from Temecula to Riverside for the initial break-in, and happy to report not a single problem (even to this day).
As much as I bragged about having a stock-suspension daily driver pickup, I'm eating my words now that I've got a few hundred miles on the odometer with the IFS! Now, I'm not saying there's anything wrong with parallel leaf/straight axle setups--but once you go independent, there's no going back! Plus, with the addition of the Firestone airbags with individual manual-valve controls, I've got the best of both worlds.

Gift Certificates Map
I have just put the finishing touches on a bit of code that shows a visual representation of the gift certificates you have sent out and up to three degrees of separations of how they spread once redeemed. It's located in the Adagio Teas account page and I'd love to get any feedback you may have.

The problem isn't sending out the referrals but having people that you send them to place orders. Last year at Christmas I sent out a $5 gift certificate referral to everyone in my address book and nobody cashed theirs in yet

Hey ilya - that is really neat! Now I'll have to go to the guy that sent me a certificate to see an additional level of separation! It's good that you're only putting in the initial for the person's last name too, so that their privacy isn't compromised. Keep up the great work!

I've sent 6 certificates out so far and no one's used them...
...but inspired by this map, I've just sent out three more.

So far only one of my friends has used the certificate. It doesn't show on the map nor is the "conversion" indicated with my icon. Probably because I changed email addresses awhile back.
Matters not -- I still got 10 points credit and I'm happy about that!

TIME's politics team brings you up-to-the-minute commentary and coverage throughout election night.
That? That right there? That is why I voted for this man twice, and why, even when I am most frustrated with him, I never regret that vote.
"We are one American family, and we rise and fall as one nation."
This election in a nutshell.
Is Steve Schmidt gonna have a career in the GOP after this? The dude just came out supporting gay marriage.
On the down side, my congress critter/cross to bear, Louie Gohmert, won by a huge margin.
C'mon, Obama, I need a great victory speech to wash that away. Especially since I'm now dry.
Wow, that was unexpectedly human.
Figures they'd get the emotion chip woring when it's too late.
Did anyone else catch Rove accuse someone else of accusing their opponents of being un-American for disagreeing with them? Hilarity at it's best.
Virginia has been called for Obama! Again! I can't describe how happy that makes me...
I wonder if they'll play the theme from The Rock in the background again. I'm hoping they'll play Depeche Mode's WRONG.
Everyone thought BO was toast in FL. Maybe the way he handled the northeast post-Sandy was something Floridians could relate to. God forbid he ever has to deal with Lurch due to a disaster.
@Sue_N @Curious_Quiche Ten we can call him Special K. Like the horse tranquilizer
@Sue_N @Curious_Quiche I just twitched a bit watching that misery on the bot's face
@nflfoghorn @Sue_N @doddeb I'll just tell 'em I'm a Democrat. They'll expect polluted blood.
@doddeb @nflfoghorn I have three minutes left to drink, and half a bottle.

Really Helped My Cat
By Friend of Felines
from Hayward, CA
About Me Long-time Pet Owner
Comments about Doc Ackerman's Instant Hot Spot Relief Spray:
My cat had a very severe reaction to fleas this year. Though I was able to get the fleas under control, the residual damage to her skin and her compulsive licking left her with hair loss and red spots on her body. The same was happening with her brother and litter mate. I used the spray on both cats and saw almost immediate improvement. The male cats red spots cleared up and the hair started growing back within 2 to 3 weeks. The female is taking longer to have hair growth but the reddness is gone and she has stopped the compulsive licking
Comment on this review
By Dfly
from Humboldt County, CA
Whenever my dogs get itchy, maybe a couple times a week, I use this spray on them and it works so great. Better than I expected! They always get itchy after a bath, so last bath used this afterwards...and no itchies!
I really like this product
By Sjspug
from Port Richey, Fl
It seems to work fine, although it doesn't clear up hotspots on my dogs. It does eliminate the itch but just for a few hours. But still, I will continue to buy this product. It's gentle and smells fine.

Wish I had heard about this YEARS ago!
By B The Cat Lady
from Springport, MI
I used this 3 days in a row on my cat that was almost bald and his skin was scaly and hot. After the third day, the scales were gone, his skin was smooth, he quit desperately digging at himself and now his hair is growing back. I haven't had to use it since. Very easy to apply. He doesn't like spray, so I sprayed it into my hand and rubbed it onto his back. He didn't mind at all and didn't try to lick it off. Smelled pleasant - not strong, which was a plus for both him and me. I will keep this on hand and have told all my animal loving friends about this product and your site!
Works very well!

About Me Professional Pet Trainer
I have various sighthounds of breeds that tend to get gross buildup on their teeth at an early age, even though I feed raw. This stuff works great! I don't always use it as often as I should, but I can notice a difference with even just a few uses.

This stuff worked on our cat
By Illinoislady
from Carbondale, Illinois
Our 14 yr. old cat develops hot spots on his back near his tail every summer; we have tried various home remedies and even the spray for our dogs, but it is too harsh for the cat. We wanted something specifically for a cat and this product fulfills that criteria, and it is gentle and works fast. In just a few weeks the hair has all grown back and no other breakouts have occurred. Many other products we researched were far more expensive, and this one's ingredients seem to be more natural.

Temporary relief
By Ron and Juno
from Northern Illinois
Doc Ackerman's spray really eases the itching caused by allergies my dog suffers from. When the itching gets bad, I pull out the spray bottle and my dog actually comes over to me to get relief. Trying to administer medications has always provoked an opposite response, she usually tries to get away. But she honestly appreciates the relief this spray provides. The cost of this product is well worth the relieving effect it has on my older 12 year old husky. I have tried many sprays, both store bought and prescribed sprays or other topical creams and this product seems to work the best. It is also appreciated that it is all natural and do not have to worry about harmful ingrediants. It has been very challenging dealing with the severe allergies my dog suffers from. Each year it became worse and it has been stressful for myself watching my dog suffer. I can read my pets face when she thanks me for applying this spray.It is also a clean spray, (non-sticky) unlike many other products out there and has a neutral odor too. One bottle lasts quite a while, it has been several months since I ordered last one.
