The Las Vegas Raiders are trying to reshape the team in the NFL offseason, and they’ve already made some big Raiders roster moves. Now it’s time to sign a few more Raiders free agents in this NFL free agency period in order to build a winner for next season. At the end of March, the […]

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 […]

The Atlanta Falcons are killing it in the NFL free agency period so far. They’ve made some splashes on the market, kept key players, and even made a big trade. Now, they can round out their offseason by bringing in a few more experienced veterans like Frank Clark and Marcus Peters. Atlanta came into the […]

The New York Giants have already made a monster splash during the NFL free agency period. Now is the time to sign a few more Giants free agents, though, to round out the roster. This includes bringing in players like Jadeveon Clowney and re-signing Richie James. It’s hard not to say that the Giants aren’t […]

The Portland Trail Blazers once again find themselves on the outside looking in on the NBA playoffs. As with all non-playoff teams in the NBA, the 2023 NCAA Tournament signals that the 2023 NBA Draft isn’t far behind. And that means new hope for Blazers fans. With that in mind, here are the three best […]

The New York Knicks are playing well and are currently focused on the upcoming NBA playoffs. However, with the 2023 NCAA Tournament about to start and the 2023 NBA Draft to follow, it’s time for fans to look toward the future as well. In that vein, here are the three best potential Knicks draft picks […]

As 2023 NFL free agency gets underway, the Cincinnati Bengals should be major players. The team has a good amount of cap room and likely one more season with a quarterback on a reasonable cap figure, even if the Joe Burrow extension comes this offseason. That means the Bengals’ free agency plans can include some […]

The Arizona Cardinals’ free agent needs in the 2023 NFL offseason include upgrades along both lines, getting more weapons for Kyler Murray, and probably even finding a short-term replacement for Murray and Colt McCoy if injuries prevent them from starting the season. However, the franchise lost a legend at the end of the season, so […]

The Detroit Lions’ free agent needs in the 2023 NFL offseason include players who can help the team win now and get them into the playoffs next season. The team came tantalizingly close in 2022, and with the right NFL free agents coming in this offseason, there is no reason the franchise can’t reach the […]

After a 7-10 season, there are plenty of Atlanta Falcons free agent needs in the 2023 NFL offseason. The team can address many of these needs in the draft, but there is one specific need where the Falcons not only need a talent upgrade but a veteran presence as well. That’s why, of all the […]

The Los Angeles Rams won a Super Bowl with quarterback Mathew Stafford, but now they’d like to trade him and move on. With the guaranteed money left on Stafford’s deal, that likely won’t happen. However, the team should still take a swing at finding a QB of the future in the 2023 NFL Draft, even […]

The Cleveland Browns made a huge move last offseason and traded for embattled quarterback Deshaun Watson. Things weren’t great in year one, as the QB served an 11-game suspension, and the team went 7-10. Now the team must find a way to improve without a first-round pick in the 2023 NFL Draft. One of the […]

After nine seasons, it looks like Adam Thielen is out as a member of the Minnesota Vikings. The franchise is on the verge of releasing the Pro Bowl pass-catcher in a move to save the team $6.4 million next season. So, if the WR is out, the best Adam Thielen destinations will include teams like […]

The Las Vegas Raiders cut ties with their quarterback of the last nine years, Derek Carr. Now the team must move on by drafting a new signal-caller in the 2023 NFL Draft. After the NFL Scouting Combine, Kentucky QB Will Levis may have slipped a bit with Anthony Richardson’s performance, but that is good news […]

The Los Angeles Chargers finally made the playoffs with Justin Herbert in 2022. Now they need to continue to improve the weapons around him by drafting a wide receiver in the 2023 NFL Draft. The Chargers receivers, Keenan Allen and Mike Williams are aging, and it is time to get some young talent in the […]

The New York Giants just signed quarterback Daniel Jones to a massive contract extension, and now they need to help him out by drafting a wide receiver in the 2023 NFL Draft. The Giants receiving corps was one of (if not) the weakest in the league last season, and that needs to change if the […]

The Dallas Cowboys need to get Dak Prescott more weapons in the 2023 NFL Draft. Outside of wide receiver CeeDee Lamb, the Cowboys’ pass-catching corps left a lot to be desired in the 2022 season. That needs to change for Dallas to be true contenders in 2023. At the NFL Scouting Combine, Utah TE Dalton […]

The Buffalo Bills need to upgrade their skill position players in the 2023 NFL Draft. With no true game-breaking No. 1 wide receiver in the first round, that means picking a running back at No. 27 makes the most sense. After the NFL Scouting Combine, Texas RB Bijan Robinson is still the top player at […]

Tyree Wilson is one of the best prospects in the 2023 NFL Draft class. The Texas Tech football pass-rusher is the best true defensive end in the group this year, and as such, lots of 4-3 teams, specifically, at the top of the draft will covet Wilson. This includes teams like the Chicago Bears, Detroit […]

Mike McGlinchey is one of the biggest names on the NFL free agency market in 2023. The San Francisco 49ers right tackle is the best player available at his position, a position that many teams around the league need to fill or upgrade. That’s why teams like the Miami Dolphins, Tennessee Titans, and Chicago Bears […]

Jordan Addison is one of the top wide receiver prospects in the 2023 NFL Draft. The former USC football pass-catcher is a speedy, versatile wideout who will fit in many NFL systems. As a later first-round prospect, the best Jordan Addison NFL draft fits include three teams picking in the mid-20s, the New York Giants, […]

Tight end Dalton Kincaid is one of the top pass-catching prospects in the 2023 NFL Draft. The Utah football star could help several teams looking to upgrade their receiving mix for next season. In the middle to back end of the first round, teams like the Green Bay Packers, New York Giants, Dallas Cowboys, Cincinnati […]

CJ Stroud, the Ohio State football quarterback, will likely be one of the first five or six players off the board in the 2023 NFL Draft. Several teams at the top of the draft need a new QB, including the Houston Texans, Indianapolis Colts, Seattle Seahawks, Detroit Lions, and Carolina Panthers. Of those high-picking teams, […]

Kentucky quarterback Will Levis is one of the best QB prospects in the 2023 NFL Draft and should be off the board within the first 10 picks. With that as the most likely Will Levis NFL draft outcome, here is why the former Kentucky football signal-caller is a great fit for teams like the Carolina […]

On March 2, 1962, Wilt Chamberlain scored an astonishing 100 points in an NBA game for the Philadelphia Warriors against the New York Knicks. That number is still the single-game NBA points record 61 years later. And while no NBA player has come within 18 points of that mark, all records are made to be […]

In a shocking development to kick off the NFL Scouting Combine and the 2023 NFL Draft season, the Athens-Clarke County (Georgia) Police Department put out a warrant and arrested Georgia football star and NFL draft prospect Jalen Carter in connection with a January car crash that killed two members of the Georgia Bulldogs football program. […]

Tony Pollard is one of the biggest names on the 2023 NFL free agency market. The Dallas Cowboys running back has gone from a college wide receiver to a change-of-pace back to a legitimate RB1 candidate in his four NFL seasons. Now, the Cowboys must decide if they are going to choose him over Ezekiel […]

Mike Gesicki is one of the biggest names on the 2023 NFL free agency market. The Miami Dolphins tight end is still just 27 years old and only a season removed from his career year. He’s not the best fit for Mike McDaniel’s system, though, so teams like the Houston Texans, New York Giants, and […]

The Brooklyn Nets traded Kevin Durant to the Phoenix Suns nearly a month ago, but thanks to a lingering knee injury, the superstar hasn’t played for his new team yet. That all changes Wednesday night when the Kevin Durant Suns debut happens vs. the Charlotte Hornets. Ahead of this auspicious occasion, let’s make some bold […]

The Baltimore Ravens made the playoffs in 2022 and almost beat the Cincinnati Bengals in the Wild Card Round. However, that doesn’t mean the team is in great shape. The team is at war with its starting QB about a contract extension, and the offense needs help. That’s why two Ravens trade targets this NFL […]

Linebacker Lavonte David is one of the biggest names in NFL free agency this offseason. The long-time Tampa Bay Buccaneers defender just turned 33, but he still has some good football left in him. That’s why teams like the New York Giants, Buffalo Bills, and Las Vegas Raiders will be interested. David was a second-round […]

After the Leonard Fournette release, the future is uncertain for the 28-year-old running back. The No. 4 pick of the 2017 NFL Draft never quite lived up to his lofty expectations, but he became a solid contributor on a Super Bowl team with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in recent years. And in that capacity, the […]

Jimmy Garoppolo is one of the biggest names on the quarterback market in NFL free agency this offseason. Despite the San Francisco 49ers’ rush to move on from the 31-year-old QB, Jimmy G is 40-17 as a starter in his career and has won four playoff games. That’s why teams like the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, […]

Tremaine Edmonds is one of the biggest names on the 2023 NFL free agency market. The Buffalo Bills linebacker is a five-year NFL veteran, a two-time Pro Bowler, and still just 24 years old. The Bills would love to keep him, but with a tight salary cap situation, the franchise has some tough decisions to […]

Jordan Poyer is one of the top players on the 2023 NFL free agency market. The Buffalo Bills safety has been one of the best players at his position the last several years, making a Pro Bowl and an All-Pro Team. Poyer will turn 32 in April, though, and his price tag combined with his […]

The Minnesota Vikings had one of the best records in football last season yet never quite seemed like one of the best teams in the league. In the 2023 NFL offseason, the team needs to make some major salary cap moves to help the team next season and in the future. Here are four bold […]

The last Chicago Bears No. 1 pick was Oklahoma A&M running back Bob Fenimore in 1947. Before that, it was Michigan RB Tom Harmon in 1941. Harmon never played for the Bears, and Fenimore had a grand total of 53 carries for 189 yards and a touchdown in his lone NFL season. It’s safe to […]

The 2022 Los Angeles Rams campaign was a horrible way to defend a Super Bowl title. The team went 5-12, which almost sent Sean McVay into retirement. The coach is back, though, this NFL offseason and ready to regroup for 2023. To do this, here are some bold Rams offseason predictions heading into the coach’s […]

The Las Vegas Raiders have spent a lot of money in the last few years but don’t have a ton to show for it. In 2022, the team truly fell apart, starting the season with Super Bowl expectations and finishing with an abysmal 6-11 record. Now the team must go all in this NFL offseason, […]
