They claim to break news, yet you can always find someone else who's reported it first. They simply take info from other people and pretend they have the scoop, and never give credit to the original source. You can also see they throw a bunch of stuff against the wall and hope that something sticks. 

I disagree, they have been pretty good. They mention a lot of talks but talks don't necessarily mean signings. Every team talks to far more players than they sign and we never hear about most those discussions, however they were way ahead on Bynes by almost a week saying it was Bynes and Ogletree left after Schobert. They threw out we were in DEEP on Schobert two days before it came out we fell out at the last minute on him. 

Not all of their info may be great, but they have been in before a lot of reports. Hell Mike Florio retweeted one of their tweets where they called out the Panthers as one of 4 teams that were in on Robbie Anderson...4 days before he signed. They then called specifically Anderson to the Panthers in a "heating up" tweet the day before, no one else was reporting that. 

The reality is that account is getting fed by people inside places, some of the info is good, some isn't, and some we will never know if it was true or not.
