Will Xavier Worthy Be A First-Round Pick After Historic 40-Yard Dash? Best Landing Spots For Worthy

Incoming rookie wide receiver Xavier Worthy clocked the fastest 40-yard dash time ever at the NFL Combine, even besting a sprinter with worldwide recognition (although Usain Bolt was retired and not wearing proper running shoes or attire when he ran the NFL-style dash in 2019). While the Bolt headlines are slightly misleading, the 4.21 seconds […]

Is Kirk Cousins A Good Fit For The Atlanta Falcons? 2024 Free Agent Outlook

A 35-year-old quarterback just months removed from a torn Achilles is the cream of the crop in the free-agent market.

A half-dozen teams should examine a […]

Who Do The Green Bay Packers Play Next Season? List of Green Bay's 2024 Opponents

Age and experience don't factor into the equation when an organization continues to draft reliable, if not Hall-of-Fame-bound, quarterbacks. Jordan Love took the mantle from Aaron Rodgers in 2023 and led the Packers to the postseason after a rocky start to the year. That's just the beginning of the new era in Green Bay. After […]

The Biggest Fantasy Football RB Busts of 2023

Once the cornerstone of fantasy football roster building, running backs have fallen by the wayside to wide receivers, and in some rare cases, tight ends. When managers took the gamble on one in the first or second round, it seemed they couldn't miss. Austin Ekeler, Tony Pollard, and Nick Chubb were all either first-round picks […]

Washington Commanders Biggest Offseason Needs - 2024 NFL Outlook

Thirty-two seasons of failure have put Washington in this position. That’s how long it’s been since the franchise reached the NFC Championship game.

Re-Drafting The 2021 NFL Draft: Entire First Round Do-Over

Some rookies take time to adjust to the speed of the NFL game. Season one can be a bumpy ride. Season two (hopefully) shows further development. By season three, it's clear which players are cut out for the league. That statement is proven correct in the 2021 NFL Draft. Quarterbacks headlined the draft with Trevor […]

Which Draft Pick Do The San Francisco 49ers Have In The 2024 NFL Draft?

The San Francisco 49ers may utilize the NFL Draft better than any franchise in the NFL. With several compensatory picks, San Francisco casts a wide net for prospects which helps them hit on late-round gems. This team will be competing for a Super Bowl again in 2024 and they were seemingly one player away from […]

Which Draft Pick Do The Las Vegas Raiders Have In The 2024 NFL Draft?

The Las Vegas Raiders may have turned their 2023 season around under interim coach Antonio Pierce (who was rewarded with the full-time position), but that doesn't mean there aren't as many holes on the roster as teams picking in the top five. The defense was sturdier when Pierce took over. Still, it wouldn't be a […]

Re-Drafting The 2022 NFL Draft: Entire First Round Do-Over

Incoming NFL rookies may need some time to get acclimated to the speed and nuances of football's highest level. After two years, however, it's easier to tell which players will or won't pan out. With two seasons of professional game tape, many general managers would change their NFL Draft selections if given a do-over. Some […]

Re-Drafting The 2023 NFL Draft: Entire First Round Do-Over

Knowledge is power. We hear that mantra repeated quite often, but it rings true across every aspect of society. General managers and team personnel across the NFL would be thrilled with one year of professional tape on players before they make their draft day selections. Of course, it doesn't work that way in the real […]

Revisiting The Christian McCaffrey Trade - How CMC Landed In San Francisco

A midseason trade for a star player is a staple of the NBA. Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving, James Harden, Carmelo Anthony, and more navigated their way to a new franchise. In the NFL, it's extremely uncommon. Last season, however, the San Francisco 49ers made the splash and acquired All-Pro running back Christian McCaffrey. Since then, […]

Which Draft Pick Do The New England Patriots Have In The 2024 NFL Draft?

A new era is arriving in Massachusetts. Since (essentially) the turn of the millennium, there have been two eras for New England: Tom Brady and after Tom Brady. The soon-to-be Hall of Famer strung together the greatest extended run in NFL history. His replacement, Mac Jones, isn't going to get a second contract. There's also […]

Is Jaxon Smith-Njigba Bound To Be A Bust Or Can He Rebound From His Rookie Season?

Sometimes, players just aren't as good as we thought they were as prospects. It happens every single draft cycle. Efficiency numbers don't line up with what's to be expected. A dysfunctional coaching staff tears down their confidence. Combine results don't translate to game action. There's a myriad of things that can go wrong. It was […]

Will The Chicago Bears Draft Caleb Williams? 2024 NFL Draft Outlook

In the NFL, there's a constant search for franchise quarterbacks. Finding one alters the entire trajectory for teams. Patrick Mahomes is heading to his fourth Super Bowl in the last five seasons.

Which Draft Pick Do The Minnesota Vikings Have In The 2024 NFL Draft?

The Minnesota Vikings' chances at postseason success disappeared when Kirk Cousins tore his Achilles in Week 8 and their odds of making the playoffs at all vanished when Jaren Hall threw for 67 yards in a half against Green Bay in Week 17. The silver lining is that the subpar season is leading to a […]

Is Bryce Young Bound To Be A Bust Or Can He Rebound From His Rookie Season?

Nothing but disappointment. That was the story of the Carolina Panthers in 2023. With enough talent on their roster to win seven games in 2022, team executives saw a quarterback as their missing piece. They traded up to select Bryce Young with the first overall pick and paired him with Frank Reich, a coach known […]

Is Quentin Johnston Bound To Be A Bust Or Can He Rebound From His Rookie Season?

"...At 6-foot-4 ... weighing 215 pounds ... from TCU ... Quentin Johnston!!!" Johnston's profile emulates a starting shooting guard in the NBA. Not only does he have the size of an elite athlete, but his speed enticed NFL general managers last April. With that blend of length, build, and agility, how could he fail? Inconsistency […]

Will The Broncos Cut Or Trade Russell Wilson? 2024 Offseason Outlook

A mistake was made and it's time for Denver to cut their losses. The move to trade for Russell Wilson two years ago was supposed to provide positional stability for the team riding the quarterback carousel in the years following Peyton Manning's retirement. Short-term stability it did provide, but success it did not. Two losing […]

Is Deebo Samuel Injured or Healthy? Fantasy Football Injury Update

An injury robbed NFL fans of the matchup of the year: Deebo Samuel versus "Wisconsin Deebo" (a.k.a. Jayden Reed).

His absence impacted the entire offensive game plan for San Francisco, […]

Is AJ Dillon Injured or Healthy? Fantasy Football Injury Update

Many NFL coaches love a one-two punch in their backfield. David Montgomery and Jahmyr Gibbs both found success playing their roles this season. A similar case down in Miami, as Raheem Mostert and De'Von Achane found the end zone with ease (when both were healthy). Injuries always derail a coach's game plan. AJ Dillon and […]

Is Zay Flowers Injured or Healthy? Fantasy Football Injury Update

Sometimes an extra week of rest and relaxation isn't enough. Workers around the globe return to work after a lengthy vacation, only to be less motivated and more drained than before they left.

Television deals are largely responsible for reshaping the […]
