Top FSU WR in legal mess..
.No one will ever accuse Florida State WR Tallman Gardner of lacking a sense of timing! Just 19 days before his football future was to be decided at the 2003 draft, Gardner, a late first day prospect for this year's draft, was arrested in Tallahasse earlier today and charged with two counts one a felony. Gardner was charged with possession of concealed handgun, a felony count, along with a misdemeanor count of marijauna possession.
Bengals mum on Leftwich...
Cincinnati was reportedly one of the teams most interested in seeing Marshall QB Byron Leftwich work out yesterday in Florida. Indeed, the Bengals have put off making a decision on which player to select with the #1 pick at the 2003 draft until they had a chance to check out Leftwich. Bengals' team executives, though, from head coach Marvin Lewis on down have said very little as to how they judged Leftwich's perfrormance. Lewis, however, was not the only head coach in Sarasota yesterday. In fact, in what may be a bit of an indication where Leftwich is ultimately likely to be drafted, the other coaches in attendance were Jack Del Rio of Jacksonville, Carolina' John Fox and Brian Billick of Baltimore, whose teams select 8th, 9th and 10th, respectively. Indeed, Baltimore may have been the best represented organization at the workout with Ravens' GM Ozzie Newsome sitting in along with Billick. Chicago GM Jerry Angelo, along with Tampa Bay's Rich McKay were also in attendance.

New England now will reportedly target another restricted free agent DT, Jemaine Haley of Miami; Haley's compensation value is a 7th round pick.
Bears jump on 'ELD' bandwagon...
Chicago became the latest team to publicly join the Kentucky DT Dwayne Robertson fan club. Larry Mayer of ChicagoBears.com reports that Bears GM Jerry Angelo described Roberston, who has climbed as high as 3rd overall on some published player ratings, as a "great talent" and a "potential impact player, no question." Angelo says he sees Roberston as both explosive and disruptive such that there is "nothing he can't do."
