Sports - Pancake Blocks: Skinny Posts: Tomlin's leadership

Gregg Rosenthal and I have come to appreciate Mike Tomlin as an elite motivator as well as one of the best quotes in the NFL. The National Football Post’s Michael Lombardi sheds some light on the ingredients that go into Tomlin’s outstanding leadership style.

Ron Jaworski’s take on the Jay Cutler saga is similar to mine, only with less vitriol. Jaws believes Cutler looks “foolish” right now, but it would be a “no-brainer” for a team like the Bucs to acquire the young franchise quarterback.

NFL.com has the full list of compensatory picks, and the rich are getting richer. The Pats, already with three second-rounders, have added a third, fifth, and sixth. The Titans collected an extra pick in rounds four through seven.

The Rotoworld football staff has a soft spot for the golden boy of insiders, Adam Schefter. The man responsible for more football blurbs over the last four years than anyone has been conspicuously absent at the NFL Owner’s Meetings. I thought he may have been using the early March down time for some much deserved R&R, but it appears that his three week disappearance is the result of a contract dispute with NFL Network.

Speaking of the Titans, it looks like they may have some competition for Torry Holt. Per NFL Network, the receiver-needy Jags have been in contact with the seven-time Pro Bowler.

SI’s Don Banks has a pessimistic primer on the major changes expected for the 2010 and 2011 seasons. Colleague Peter King, on the other hand, believes the NFL’s new $1 billion per year deal with DirecTV through 2014 is insurance against a lockout.

Uniform news: the NFLShop.com page has accidentally revealed the Lions new logo while the Jags are getting a much needed new look.
