Ed Bouchette has another story on cornerback William Gay and the pressure put on him to take over the spot left vacant by Bryant McFadden. Gay has been a popular guy in the media this off season.

ESPN blogger, James Walker, takes a look at the AFC North interior defensive lineman. Walker goes on to rank Haloti Ngata over Casey Hampton. I am sure Hampton would rather collect Super Bowl rings though and not blogger awards.

Teresa Varley of Steelers.com has a piece on Limas Sweed and his fight for the number three receiver spot.

Mike Bires has a column on Steelers rookie wideout, Mike Wallace, who Hines Ward says is still raw, but developing.

NFL.com has some video from the Super Bowl ring presentation and some interviews. You can get a good perspective of how big they are, even on the players fingers. That is some serious bling.

Bengals wide receiver Chad Ochocinco Johnson likens his relationship with quarterback Carson Palmer to the one in the movie, Brokeback Mountain. "I know people are trying to say we're mad at each other and all that, but we're good," he said. "We're like Brokeback Mountain. Wasn't that a movie about two gay cowboys?
