With EVP Zack Kleiman’s Memphis Grizzlies expected to usher in a new era by trading Ja Morant this offseason, the franchise’s direction has never been more in doubt.

It’s that time of the year for the Cincinnati Bengals. For the last few years, the theme of the Bengals’ offseason has been one of two things: fixing the offensive line or finding a solution to their defense. While the Bengals never had a shutdown defense in the Joe Burrow era, their defense before had […]

The Cincinnati Bengals are looking to improve their defense. That’s not a surprise to anyone: after last season’s disaster, it’s quite clear that an overhaul is badly needed. All three levels of the defense performed horribly, requiring an overhaul of the players at their positions. With the tenth pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, the […]

For years, the San Francisco 49ers operated as one of the NFL’s deepest and most complete rosters.

With the No. 27 overall pick and several key roster questions looming, the PFF […]

The Baltimore Ravens rarely enter an offseason lacking direction. Yet that’s exactly how they find themselves entering the 2026 NFL Draft. They had a turbulent 2025 campaign and a coaching transition to Jesse Minter.

The 2026 NFL Draft represents a subtle but significant crossroads for the Jacksonville Jaguars. Of course, the team still believes in its offensive core led by quarterback Trevor Lawrence. However, the past season exposed some cracks across multiple layers of the roster. Defensive consistency waned late in games. The offensive line showed uneven protection, and […]

For the Indianapolis Colts, the 2026 NFL Draft begins with building a meaningful class without a first-round pick.

The veteran has hardly let […]

The Kyler Murray era in Arizona is officially over. Seven years after drafting the star quarterback, the Arizona Cardinals are releasing Murray, allowing him to hit free agency.

When the wildly optimistic Zion Williamson limped off the court in Utah with yet another ankle injury, the familiar dread that has shadowed his career resurfaced. Another setback leading to lost games. Another storyline about availability, another reason to worry for the New Orleans Pelicans.

WASHINGTON, D.C. — The Washington Wizards had one of the most dramatic games of their season in Monday’s 123-118 home loss to the Houston Rockets, which included a Trae Young ejection. But third-year guard Bilal Coulibaly’s season-high 23 points (9-16, 5-7 3-point) was the most important aspect of the night for Washington’s development. The 21-year-old […]

INGLEWOOD, Calif. — From the league’s investigation to start the 2025-26 regular season to the shocking trades of James Harden and Ivica Zubac at the NBA trade deadline, this LA Clippers season has felt like two or three whole seasons lumped into one.

We are one step closer to the 2026 NFL Draft now that the scouting combine is in the books. As always, the annual “underwear Olympics” shook up the draft board as players were poked, prodded, weighed, measured, and put through their paces in drills that look nothing like a down of professional football. Despite this […]

The Detroit Lions lost their identity in 2025. Detroit’s offense did not look the same without Ben Johnson or Frank Ragnow, which contributed to a 9-8 record. Now the Lions have a laundry list of roster needs heading into the 2026 offseason. Detroit could really use another strong draft class from GM Brad Holmes, just […]

It seems like all that could have gone wrong this season for the Golden State Warriors has gone wrong.

For the Los Angeles Chargers, the NFL Combine’s message was unmistakable. They need to protect Justin Herbert and restore toughness in the middle of the defense.

However, they are incomplete enough to demand precision. Sean Payton and general manager George Paton are not rebuilding but refining. The 2026 NFL Draft, viewed through the […]

The NFL Combine has a way of humbling even the most decorated franchises. For the Kansas City Chiefs, the 2026 draft cycle feels less about fine-tuning and more about recalibration. A 6-11 season in 2025 has forced hard conversations inside the building. Injuries exposed depth issues. Age revealed erosion in the trenches. And for the […]

There’s a lot of speculation about who the Washington Commanders will grab in the first round. One reason is that they only pick once after that until the fifth round.
