Every year [url=http://www.bearscheapstores.com/david-montgomery-jersey-cheap]David Montgomery Jersey[/url] , the Vince Lombardi trophy is awarded to the top football team in the world, but does the best team always win? The NFL playoffs aren’t like the post-seasons in hockey, basketball or baseball. Playoff games in the NFL mean a lot more than they do in those other sports because there is no best-of-seven series. Teams have one game to get the job done. If they don’t bring their A-game on that particular day, they will find themselves heading home, no matter what their regular season record was.More often than not, the best team in the NFL ends up winning the Super Bowl. If we go back just one year, there aren’t many people that would argue that the Seattle Seahawks weren’t the best in the NFL. Seattle showed up and stunned a high-powered Denver offence, and when the game was done, there was no doubt in anyone’s mind who the top team in the NFL was, but things rarely go as planned. This year, we could agree that Seattle and New England were the best teams in the NFL and either team would make for a worthy champion.Since the Super Bowl era began, there are plenty of talented teams loaded with hall-of-famers that didn’t even make it to the dance. A lot of times, a high-powered offense doesn’t match up against a ferocious defense [url=http://www.bearscheapstores.com/riley-ridley-jersey-cheap]http://www.bearscheapstores.com/riley-ridley-jersey-cheap[/url] , and sometimes a rock solid defense gets exposed.In the end, if you don’t win the Super Bowl there’s a good chance that fans won’t remember how good you were in the regular season. In the short-term, teams are judged by how much they win and lose, but in the long-run, all people remember is the team that is left standing at the end.This is a list of the 10 best teams that failed to win the Super Bowl. Some of the teams had their hearts crushed in the big game, and some were shocked in the divisional round, but there is no denying that these teams were loaded with talent. This isn't a list of franchises that failed to win, but rather a particular year in which a great team fell short. FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) — Mike Maccagnan and the Jets began the final day of the NFL draft by wheeling and dealing.New York traded down twice in the fourth round Saturday before taking West Virginia tight end Trevon Wesco with the 121st pick.The Jets entered the day with the third pick of the round at No. 105, but dealt that to New Orleans for Nos. 116 and 168. They then traded the picks they got from the Saints to Tennessee for pick Nos. 121 and 157.With the fifth-round selection, New York took Minnesota linebacker Blake Cashman. The Jets picked Rutgers cornerback Blessuan Austin in the sixth round at No. 196 overall to complete their three-day haul.The Jets drafted Alabama defensive tackle Quinnen Williams with the third overall pick Thursday night, and took Florida edge rusher Jachai Polite and USC offensive tackle Chuma Edoga in the third round Friday night.The 6-foot-3, 267-pound Wesco was used primarily as a blocking tight end in college and also profiled as a fullback and/or H-back in the NFL. He caught 26 passes for 366 yards and one touchdown last season for the Mountaineers.The Jets also currently have Chris Herndon [url=http://www.cowboyscheapauthenticstore.com/trysten-hill-jersey-cheap]http://www.cowboyscheapauthenticstore.com/trysten-hill-jersey-cheap[/url] , the team’s third-rounder last year, Eric Tomlinson, also primarily a blocking tight end, and Daniel Brown, Jordan Leggett and Neal Sterling at the position.“In college, I played tight end, I played fullback,” Wesco said during a conference call. “I would say my versatility is my strength.”Wesco began his college career at Lackawanna College in Scranton, Pennsylvania, where he played two seasons — and had a redshirt year as a sophomore — before going to West Virginia. Statistically, Wesco didn’t put up big numbers his first two seasons with the Mountaineers but had a breakout campaign as a senior and was named to the All-Big 12 first team.“I feel good as a pass catcher,” Wesco said, adding that he dropped only two passes last season. “I’ve always caught the ball. Since I was younger [url=http://www.cowboyscheapauthenticstore.com/connor-mcgovern-jersey-cheap]Connor McGovern Jersey[/url] , I’ve always had the ball in my hand — playing quarterback, and I played receiver when I was younger in high school. I’m really comfortable with that. I mean, I don’t feel like I have a problem with that.”Cashman adds depth to the Jets’ linebacker corps, which already includes C.J. Mosley, Avery Williamson, Darron Lee, Jordan Jenkins, Brandon Copeland, Neville Hewitt and Frankie Luvu. The 6-1, 237-pound Cashman projects as a core special teams contributor who could potentially serve as a rotational player at linebacker.He was a walk-on at Minnesota and eventually became a starter and team captain for the Gophers. Cashman had 15 tackles for losses last season, and drew the attention of the Jets.“They were a team that reached out to me a few times between the combine and draft,” Cashman said during a conference call. “I met with them at the combine twice and then again at pro day. … I felt like it was a great fit and I couldn’t be more pumped up and ready to go.”Cashman has had three shoulder procedures since 2016, but said he’s healthy and has no issues with them.“My shoulders feel great [url=http://www.coltscheapshop.com/cheap-authentic-khari-willis-jersey]Khari Willis Jersey[/url] ,” he said. “Over the past year, I’ve worked with a specialist and designed my training around it to make sure that my shoulders are very stable and healthy.”Austin comes to the Jets after some injury concerns in college. He had 14 pass breakups as a sophomore in 2016 while starting 11 games at cornerback and being selected as an All-Big Ten honorable mention. But he tore the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee in the fourth game of his junior year, then re-injured the knee in the season opener last year.“Going through the knee injuries and having some success and being so close to the pinnacle of my career and to be constantly knocked down, it was just hard to deal with,” an emotional Austin said during a conference call. “I’ve been blessed with perseverance and having the ability to go through adversity, and that’s what got me here today.”It wasn’t immediately clear if he’ll be healthy enough to participate fully in workouts and minicamp, but Austin considers himself a “freakish athlete” and is excited to get an opportunity despite his medical hardships.The Queens, New York, native acknowledged he grew up a Giants fan — but, that was then, of course.“The switchover won’t be hard,” Austin said. “At all.” _________________ elaine95 |
