The Buffalo Bills need a big 2023 NFL draft. General manager Brandon Beane hasn’t drafted a Pro Bowl player since 2018, and the talent gap is starting to show. That means these Bills draft picks need to be able to contribute and not fall into the same traps that previous picks have in the last […]

As the NFL offseason rolls along, it’s time for the New York Giants to get ready for the 2023 NFL Draft. While most of the analysis right now deals with the first-round pick, the Giants draft will be a win or a loss based on Day 2 and Day 3 as much as anything else. […]

The Kansas City Chiefs are coming off a Super Bowl win thanks, in large part, to the strength of the team’s 2022 NFL Draft. For the Chiefs draft in 2023, the team needs to keep the good picks rolling, and that means hitting on some NFL draft sleepers. Obviously, as Super Bowl champs, the Chiefs […]

As the Buffalo Bills prepare for the 2023 NFL Draft, there is a lot of pressure on general manager Brandon Beane. A Bills draft hasn’t featured a Pro Bowl player since 2018, and the talent gap is starting to show. Beane and company need a strong draft to keep the Super Bowl window open for […]

The Carolina Panthers aren’t just in NFL Draft and free-agency season. It’s NFL trade season, too. And in the 2023 NFL offseason, a Panthers trade for the No. 1 pick is already the biggest blockbuster. Now the team needs to make one more deal and get an additional mid-round pick for quarterback Matt Corral. The […]

We all know the Green Bay Packers trade the franchise has to make in the 2023 NFL offseason is moving Aaron Rodgers to the New York Jets. However, there is another move the team should make, too. Rodgers’ good buddy, left tackle David Bakhtiari, should be a package deal with the QB, which would work […]

The Sacramento Kings have already shocked the world by (soon) clinching a top-three seed heading into the 2023 NBA playoffs. Now, as the Kings playoffs get underway, the young team will be looking to silence their doubters even more with a Kings NBA Finals run. Is it possible that a franchise that hasn’t made the […]

The last New York Knicks NBA Finals appearance was back in 1999. The last Knicks playoffs series win was in 2013. As the team prepares for the 2023 NBA playoffs, those dates may not be inspiring. But each season a franchise makes the playoffs brings new hope that an NBA title (which would be the […]

The Golden State Warriors have appeared in six of the last eight NBA Finals and won four titles along the way. The 2022-23 version of the team didn’t look like a contender or even an NBA playoffs team early in the season, but they are now playing well, suggesting a vintage Warriors playoffs run could […]

The Phoenix Suns’ NBA playoffs journey is about to begin. The team made it to the NBA Finals in 2021 and the Western Conference semifinals in 2022. With the addition of Kevin Durant at the NBA trade deadline, will there be another Suns NBA Finals run this season? The road won’t be easy for KD, […]

The Houston Texans head into the 2023 NFL Draft with two first-round picks at No.2 and No. 12.

At No. 12, the team could grab a player to help […]

The Indianapolis Colts go into the 2023 NFL Draft with the No. 4 overall pick and some known issues to address.

The Tennessee Titans approach the 2023 NFL Draft with plenty of roster holes to fill on both sides of the ball. Picking at No. 11, the team can look to replace A.J.

The Las Vegas Raiders come into the 2023 NFL Draft with several roster holes to fill on both sides of the ball. They also have the No. 7 pick, which means they could take a big swing and try to find their franchise of the future. With that in mind, here are the three best […]

The Dallas Cowboys are heading into the 2023 NFL Draft with several roster holes to fill on both sides of the ball. With pick No. 26, the team could address the skill positions on the offensive side of the ball or beef up the defensive line. With that in mind, here are the three best […]

The Denver Broncos have made some bold moves in 2023 NFL free agency.

However, the sneakiest Commanders’ free agency move is signing tackle Andrew Wylie away from the Kansas City Chiefs. Andrew Wylie is the sneakiest Commanders’ free agent […]

This NFL offseason, the Seattle Seahawks roster has undergone some changes.

Indianapolis Colts’ free agency has been relatively quiet so far. The Colts’ free agent signings include quarterback Gardner Minshew and defensive tackle Samson Ebukam, which both help fill needs. However, the sneakiest Colts move in 2023 NFL free agency is inking former Buffalo Bills wide receiver Isaiah McKenzie. Here is why. Isaiah McKenzie is the […]

There seems to be no question that a DeAndre Hopkins trade is coming. The Arizona Cardinals wide receiver wants out, and the team seems happy to oblige. A Buffalo Bills trade for a top wide receiver worked out before, as Stefon Diggs has become the team’s best pass-catcher in the last three seasons. Now, the […]

The Minnesota Vikings roster is coming together after a week of NFL free agency. However, there are still needs as the signings die down and the NFL draft looms. After cutting Adam Thielen, the team’s biggest need right now is another Vikings wide receiver to play alongside All-Pro wideout Justin Jefferson. The biggest need after […]

The Chicago Bears came into NFL free agency this offseason with the most cap space (by far) and a week in, they still have $8 million more room than the second-place team. With more Bears roster moves to make and money to spend, the team’s biggest need in free agency and the NFL draft right […]

The Cincinnati Bengals once again got oh so close in 2022, but Joe Burrow and company couldn’t quite get over the hump. Now the 2023 NFL offseason is upon us, and with free agency and NFL trades in full swing, now is the time to solidify a Super Bowl-winning team. One Bengals trade that could […]

The Lamar Jackson drama has gone on long enough for the Baltimore Ravens.

That’s why the perfect Ravens trade the team must complete in the 2023 NFL offseason is to unload […]

The Seattle Seahawks shocked the world by making the playoffs last season and need to build on that this NFL offseason.

As the 2023 NFL offseason goes on, teams around the leagues are making bold moves. The Buffalo Bills haven’t been one of those teams so far. As NFL trades go down around the league, the Bills need to make some moves to keep pace with the teams in their division. A Bills trade that makes […]
