Miles Sanders Ready To Be Lead Ball Carrier

Philadelphia Eagles running back Miles Sanders said he is ready to be the main ball carrier and believes that is why the team drafted him prior to last season.

Eagles Hope Coaching Changes Can Ignite Offense

The Philadelphia Eagles will look to rejuvenate their offense by incorporating some principles from Rich Scangarello, who was hired as a senior offensive assistant. Scangarello was formerly the quarterbacks coach for Kyle Shanahan with San Francisco, so he will look to "Shanahan-ize" an offense that has taken steps back since finishing as the third-ranked scoring […]

Giants Offense To Resemble Jason Garrett's

New York Giants head coach Joe Judge said that the offense is "not a carryover" from what the team did last season, and that it will be "similarly based" on what offensive coordinator Jason Garrett ran in Dallas. This makes sense as Judge is a former special team's coordinator so, he'll leave the offense in […]

Antonio Gibson Will Be Used In Multiple Roles

Washington Redskins running back Antonio Gibson is embracing the comparison to Christian McCaffrey as someone who can stand out as both a running back and receiving threat. New Redskins coach Ron Rivera coached the Panthers star for the past two seasons, so it's easy to see Gibson being used similarly. While it's unfair to expect […]

Carson Wentz Not Concerned With Jalen Hurts Pick

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz said he is not concerned with the team drafting Oklahoma QB Jalen Hurts. Wetz is under contract through 2024, so the team using a second-round pick on a high-profile QB was one of the more interesting picks of the draft. Wentz played 16 games last year, but has dealt with […]

Carson Wentz Confirms Concussion Last Season

Giants Pick Up Fifth-Year Option On Evan Engram

The New York Giants picked up the fifth-year option on tight end Evan Engram's rookie contract.

The former first-round pick has missed 14 games in his first […]

Giants Make Tae Crowder This Year's Mr. Irrelevant

The New York Giants used the 255th and final pick of the 2020 NFL Draft on Georgia linebacker Tae Crowder. Mr. Irrelevant is a great athlete who will be a backup while the Giants attempt to harness his pure athleticism. He needs help in coverage and struggles to shed blocks in the run game, so […]

Derrek Tuszka Drafted In Seventh Round By Broncos

The Denver Broncos used the second-to-last pick of the 2020 NFL Draft on North Dakota State edge rusher Derrek Tuszka. Tuszka is a skilled pass rusher who can provide depth and learn how to get to the quarterback from Von Miller. He is a high-caliber athlete who can grow into an NFL role if he […]

Vikings Add Offensive Line Depth With Kyle Hinton

The Minnesota Vikings used their last pick of the 2020 NFL Draft on offensive guard Kyle Hinton out of Washburn. Hinton has NFL size at 6-foot-3, 310 pounds, and displayed an advanced skill level for a small-school prospect.

Broncos Use Seventh-Round Pick On Tyrie Cleveland

The Denver Broncos selected their third wide receiver of the 2020 NFL Draft in the seventh round when they picked Tyrie Cleveland out of Florida.

He'll likely begin his career on special teams but has […]

Packers Add To Secondary With Vernon Scott

The Green Bay Packers used the their last pick of the 2020 NFL Draft on TCU safety Vernon Scott in the seventh round. Scott has the size/speed combination that is enticing in the last round of the draft, but his skills are raw. He's a developmental pick for the Packers who will add depth for […]

Lions Add To Defense With Jashon Cornell

The Detroit Lions used the 235th pick of the NFL Draft on Ohio State defensive end Jashon Cornell. At 6-foot-3 and 285 pounds, he has the ability to line up anywhere on the defensive line, which will help him stick in the NFL. Cornell will add depth to a Lions defensive front that was gashed […]

Rams Select Baylor Linebacker Clay Johnston

The Los Angeles Rams used the first of three seventh-round picks on Baylor linebacker Clay Johnston. Johnston was a five-year player in college, so he is an older prospect. His age and a knee injury last season made him slide to the seventh round. He is a good coverage linebacker that can provide much-needed depth […]

Eagles Add Linebacker Casey Toohill In Seventh Round

The Philadelphia Eagles added to their linebacker room in the seventh round, selecting Stanford linebacker Casey Toohill. Toohill is an older prospect, as it took him until his senior year to become a regular starter.

Steelers Select Defensive Tackle Carlos Davis

The Pittsburgh Steelers used their seventh-round pick (232 overall) on Nebraska defensive tackle Carlos Davis. Davis has good athleticism for his size, as he ran the 40-yard dash in 4.82 seconds at the combine despite weighing in at 313 pounds. He tends to struggle in the run game but shows flashes of brilliance, which is […]

Redskins Draft Kamren Curl In Last Round Of Draft

The Washington Redskins selected Arkansas safety Kamren Curl with the second pick of the seventh round of Saturday's NFL Draft. Curl is a developmental project who is a bit of a linebacker/safety hybrid in the run game, but he has also played cornerback in his career. That kind of versatility is a good sign for […]

Bengals Draft Another Linebacker In Markus Bailey

The Cincinnati Bengals opened up the seventh round of the NFL Draft by drafting Purdue's Markus Bailey, their third linebacker drafted this year. Cincinnati needed to upgrade the linebacker position and have clearly done that with Bailey still available in Round 7. He is a physical player good at taking on and shedding blocks. He […]

Receiver Freddie Swain Drafted By Seattle

The Seattle Seahawks used the last pick of the sixth round on Florida wide receiver Freddie Swain. Swain is a great route runner with big-time athleticism, so he'll be a bit of a developmental project for the Seahawks. He has the speed, as evidenced by his 4.46-second 40-yard dash at the combine. Swain won't see […]

Colts Add Linebacker Jordan Glasgow In Sixth Round

The Indianapolis Colts used the last of three straight sixth-round picks on Michigan linebacker Jordan Glasgow. Glasgow lacks some athleticism but has a high football IQ and gets to the ball quickly in the run game. He is a solid blitzer who can get to the quarterback. He'll need to improve in pass coverage to […]

Colts Draft Receiver Dezmon Patmon

The Indianapolis Colts added some much-needed receiver depth behind T.Y. Hilton by drafting Dezmon Patmon out of Washington State. Patmon is a huge target for new quarterback Philip Rivers. At 6-foot-4, Patmon's ability to high point the ball will make him a threat in the red zone. He's a burner who was used primarily as a […]
