The NFL Draft is about the farthest thing from an exact science in sports. Finding a consensus among draft experts is hard enough, and teams have their own rankings that may vary wildly.

The New Orleans Saints are anticipating a strong NFL Draft class in 2023. Having already traded away their first-round pick in 2023, the New Orleans Saints won’t have as much to work with in next year’s draft as some other clubs. The first selection in the second round, at No. 33 overall, is the earliest […]

Only one NFL squad, the Pittsburgh Steelers, selected a quarterback in the first round of the 2022 NFL draft.

The Las Vegas Raiders have not been very successful at the NFL Draft in recent years. Most of the team’s recent draft picks have either flamed out or left the team very quickly. The most obvious example is the Raiders’ 2020 draft, as the team has already moved on from its top five picks. The […]

On Wednesday, the Denver Broncos closed out their seventh day of training camp.

The Patriots’ 2022 offseason likely won’t be one for the history books. New England didn’t make any major free-agent signings, unlike in 2021, when it spent a record-setting amount in free agency. The Patriots didn’t make any earth-shattering trades, either, or at least compared to the rest of the NFL landscape. A year after nailing […]

To call Steve Sarkisian’s first season at Texas a disappointment would be an understatement. The Texas Longhorns finished with an embarrassing 5-7 record, including a 3-6 mark in conference play, and missed a bowl game.

The 2021-22 season was a dream for the Georgia Bulldogs. For the first time since 1980, the team won the national championship after defeating Nick Saban and the Alabama Crimson Tide, 33-18.

Can @kayvont become the next great […]

The Cincinnati Bengals were the most surprising team in the NFL in 2021. They went on an impressive cinderella run to the Super Bowl before losing the big game in heartbreaking fashion.
