Despite his injury that caused him to miss the […]

Desmond Ridder Impresses With Speed At Combine

Cincinnati quarterback Desmond Ridder had a 4.52-second 40-yard dash at the NFL scouting combine on Thursday, which was better than 12 wide receivers. The 6-foot-3, 211-pound signal-caller had accuracy issues last year, but some scouts think he can correct it with more consistent footwork in the pocket. With that said, it's likely that some teams […]

The Cleveland Browns appear poised to select the best available wide receiver at pick No. 13 overall in the first round of this year's draft instead of a quarterback.

The belief is that Dallas Cowboys impending free-agent wide receiver Michael Gallup wants to re-sign with the team this offseason.

Orioles Have Had Interest In Donovan Solano

The Baltimore Orioles had interest in signing free-agent infielder Donovan Solano before the league's lockout last December, but it's unclear if they still have interest after adding Rougned Odor.
