New American Football League- Orlando- Apollos roster

[randolph herndon]

Trent Richardson is on the Birmingham team. Sheesh, what a fall from grace.

Trenton Jamond Richardson (born July 10, 1990)[1][2] is an American professional American football running back who is currently a member of the Birmingham Iron of the Alliance of American Football. He played college football for the University of Alabama, was recognized as an All-American, and was a member of two BCS National Championship teams. Considered the top running back prospect for the 2012 NFL Draft, Richardson was considered by some as the best running back prospect since Adrian Peterson, and was selected third overall by the Cleveland Browns.[3][4][5] After being traded away from the Browns during his second season with the team, and out of the NFL after five seasons, he is often considered one of the biggest draft busts in league history.[6][7][8][9]

It’s closer to 8k per game... 250k 3 years 10 game reg season. Enough to feed the fam and get film for a potential nfl shot.

They announced that is the contract amounts? If so, good for those guys.

 

[BoxingRobes]

250k 3 years plus bonus potential. They’re trying to create an alternative to the Canadian league where more American players can have the opportunity extend their playing career, and if signed to the nfl they won’t be held to their contact.

Teams have rights to players from colleges in their region. Orlando gets first go at UM players. Atlanta has rights to UNC players, my bro just signed with Atl.

Mike Vick is OC and Brad Childress head coach.

Time will tell how it develops but they are going all in on it with lots of former nfl stars involved

I hope so. I've had numerous several former pro buddies of mine try and get involved with some of these startups...would sign a contract, practice, play games and everything and the checks would bounce and the league would fold before the season was over.

Hope this isn't one of those scenarios.

****. that absolutely sucks

 

[F-MarioCristobal]

The players get placed on these teams based on their college they attended. I'm not sure if that is always the case or if its just for the start up. If that continues there's no way the Orlando team should lose with Miami, UF, FSU, FAU, FIU, UCF, and USF feeding into them.

Maybe the Atlanta, Birmingham, and Memphis teams could come close being in the SEC footprint.

Morris looks like the most proven QB above college in the AAF based on the rosters I've looked at. He honestly could have started in Indy but they passed on giving him a chance 3+ times for another mediocre QB.

Is there a channel it’s going to be on? How do we watch it, I’d like to check out the Orlando team play if there’s going to be a decent amount of Miami players on it.

They have a contract with one of the major networks.

 

[canesthing3]

Looking forward to checking this out.

 

[Heart of The Playmaker]

they'll soon add norton

Norton is on Carolina practice squad.... being on the practice squad for a full NFL season get you over 120 k

I'm unfamiliar with the Meme. I saw it's WIllie Taggart trying to steal ideas from Miami or being envious, but what is the origin?

 

[SWFLHurricane]

Even Dennis Erickson is back coaching one of the teams.

Bruh you are over thinking way to hard on this lol. This is from Ed Edd n Eddy lol. Someone took a picture of the character Rolf and redesigned it to make it look like it is now. Here is the original picture. And no it is not Willie Taggart the artist made the picture to look like himself with a N'kosi Perry Jersey on.

This is a picture of the Artist follow him on twitter- @CanesinceDay1. The picture does look like him lol.

 

[Gsugradcanefan]

The Atlanta team has Marquise Williams from UNC on it. F**K em already

 

[rberryjr]

They have it on a few sites, and my brother signed with Atlanta. (Donnie Miles Unc)

They announced that is the contract amounts? If so, good for those guys.

My bro signed so I guess I’m a fake insider lol

Definitely hope that doesn’t happen. Lots of nfl people behind this one and they’ve done their due diligence to try not to fail for the same reasons previous leagues have failed. The Nfl also supports the idea and are paying close attention. If the fans get behind it an Nfl partnership or some type of sponsorship could happen. We’ll see...

I hope so. I've had numerous several former pro buddies of mine try and get involved with some of these startups...would sign a contract, practice, play games and everything and the checks would bounce and the league would fold before the season was over.

Lol @ Spurrier’s involvement. That has to be strictly for name recognition and nothing else.

Dude walked out on his South Carolina team in the middle of the season in 2015 so he could retire.
