What is the Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ biggest need heading into the 2025 NFL Draft? Is it another wide receiver? Depth on the lines? Or maybe a new linebacker to eventually replace LaVonte David? Well, in the opinion of head coach Todd Bowles at the NFL owners meetings in Palm Beach, Florida, the answer is clear: […]

Tyreek Hill might just be on the Miami Dolphins’ trade block. That’s right, while the situation remains firmly in the rumors stage, when the player himself has potentially commented on them, posting the peace sign on social media, it all but certainly added some legitimacy to what has otherwise widely been speculation. In the opinion […]

When it comes to the New England Patriots in the 2025 NFL Draft, they have two clear tiers of options in the first round: the duo of Abdul Carter and Travis Hunter and then everyone else.

When it comes to the 2025 NFL Draft, the Philadelphia Eagles will have options at pick 32. Now sure, technically there will be 31 players already off the board when they pick, assuming Howie Roseman doesn’t trade up, and the wily veteran GM could opt not to select in the first round at all if […]

When it comes to the top of the 2025 NFL Draft, few players draw as varied comps as Boise State running back Ashton Jeanty.

When Field Yates boldly mocked Arizona wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan to the Dallas Coboys in his latest two-round 2025 NFL mock draft for ESPN, he did so with conviction. Sure, some talent evaluators have kicked McMillan down their board ever so slightly over the past few months. Some have even suggested that Texas speedster Matthew […]

When it comes to sports in Los Angeles, few players are as popular in 2025 as Dodgers MVP Shohei Ohtani.

In 2024, Drake Maye wasn’t exactly given the tools to succeed by the New England Patriots.

When news broke that World Series MVP Freddie Freeman would miss time after suffering a “mishap in the shower,” it left Los Angeles Dodgers fans with more questions than answers.
