While jack-of-all-trades prospects are tantalizing, the players who become special at the highest level were very often uniquely gifted at one skill or another as prospects.

PITTSBURGH — “With the 82nd pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, the Minnesota Vikings select Domonique Orange, nose tackle, Iowa State.” When Brian O’Neill, a current offensive tackle for the Vikings, made that announcement on national television Friday evening, “Big Citrus” turned his NFL dreams into reality. ESPN broadcasters called him a “developmental player” on […]
The Seattle Seahawks addressed their defensive back room with the second pick of the 2026 NFL Draft, selecting interception machine Bud Clark from TCU.

After a rough Game 2 loss the Celtics needed a bounce back win in Game 3. They got it, thanks to clutch shots by Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown in the fourth. Each Jay scored 25 points as the Celtics won a great game against the 76ers, 108-100. There were no injuries to report for […]
Mike Macdonald is nothing if not consistent. The Seattle Seahawks stuck at the back around once again, this time drafting safety Bud Clark with the 64th pick. For those somewhat unfamiliar, Clark comes to us out of TCU, turning in 15 interceptions over his time there. But it’s more than the ball-snatching skills that drew […]
Rebounds, got to grab those, guys. The Sixers fell short 108-100 to the Boston Celtics in Game 3 Friday night, falling down 2-1 in the series. Tyrese Maxey, off an electric third quarter, led all scorers with 31 shooting 12-of-31 from the floor along with six assists. Paul George shot it well once he started […]

The Seattle Seahawks had plenty of options in the secondary for their second pick of the 2026 NFL Draft. They opted once again to stick and pick instead of trading down, and John Schneider wasted very little time calling in his selection.

The Philadelphia Eagles had just selected Vanderbilt tight end Eli Stowers when the news was announced that the team has made a trade with the Minnesota Vikings for edge rusher Jonathan Greenard.

The Vikings have traded edge rusher Jonathan Greenard to the Philadelphia Eagles. The deal sees Greenard and a seventh-round pick in this year’s draft, […]
In the midst of the Portland Trail Blazers’ exciting 2026 NBA Playoffs series with the San Antonio Spurs, a controversy has reared its ugly head. In defiance of tradition, the Blazers—under new owner Tom Dundon—opted against rewarding fans with the customary t-shirt for home games at the Moda Center. Since this is Portland’s first playoffs […]
The Minnesota Vikings are heading into the draft without a general manager following the firing of Kwesi Adofo-Mensah, with interim general manager Rob Brzezinski set to lead the team through the 2026 NFL Draft.
