With four games to go until the end of the regular season, the San Francisco 49ers are the clear favorites to land the top overall pick in the 2019 NFL Draft. The two-win 49ers would hold the top pick if the season ended today, giving a team in desperate need of pass rush the chance to […]

The Buffalo Bills certainly didn’t wind up being the NFL’s worst team 11 weeks deep into the 2018 season despite many thinking they could be.
