The Las Vegas Raiders accomplished a lot as they selected 10 players in the 2026 NFL draft last weekend. Still, they do still have some potential needs before the start of the season. Let’s look at some: Defensive tackle: Yes, the Raiders drafted nose tackle Brandon Cleveland in the seventh round. Still, I’d like to […]
The San Francisco 49ers did not add a safety during the NFL Draft.

We’ve got a group that […]

Now I’m going to peruse through the Bears’ selections on day 2 – the second and third rounds of the draft. […]
Now, this is an interesting selection for New Orleans. The main reason I think Hall is still available is his speed, which is a major issue in his game, but for the Saints, he could be a real starting CB. Hall is really good in zone coverage, which is a specialty of Brandon Staley’s scheme, […]

This week, we asked Jacksonville Jaguars fans to grade the team’s 2026 NFL Draft. Over half of the respondents gave Jacksonville a “D” or “F” grade. The Jaguars’ draft wasn’t very well received by national media, either. If draft grades mattered, the Jags would be in danger of dropping out of the league. Even with […]
The Dallas Cowboys have been extremely busy since the 2025 season ended. Thankfully that campaign feels like forever ago now, although a lot is going to have to happen for us to fully forget how miserable the defense was. Christian Parker is here now as the defensive coordinator and seems to have enough support to […]
The Day After the Day After…when the raw, immediate emotions from the aftermath of a game diminish into the realm of clarity and the proverbial (or literal) hangover no longer haunts the mind. With that, a review of the Houston Texans and the 2026 NFL Draft. Zaniness in the 1st Round…yep: With all the mock […]
I’m about to break conventions of journalism a bit here, but everyone else is doing it, so why not? I’m not supposed to play favorites when it comes to talking about players I am supposed to cover in an objective manner. It could impact my ability to stay impartial or view things clearly. But it’s […]
After months of speculation and no process, the Pittsburgh Steelers finally got one step closer to signing Aaron Rodgers. Per Adam Schefter, the Steelers placed the right-of-first refusal tender on the four-time MVP. “The Steelers placed the rare right-of-first-refusal tender on Aaron Rodgers, meaning that he can accept a 10 percent raise off last year’s […]

The Colts drafted CJ Allen in the second round of the NFL Draft. With a strong desire to get younger and faster on the defensive side of the ball the Colts found a tough, physical MIKE linebacker who can be the green dot of the future. We’ll break down some of the tape, but I […]
A special event is happening at the Las Vegas Raiders’ Henderson Nevada headquarters next week and it a perfect location and host. The inaugural Hispanic Football Hall of Fame will held its induction ceremony and honor Pro and college players of the year. The event will be held on May 5, which, of course, is […]
The idea of a blockbuster trade between the Los Angeles Rams and the Dallas Cowboys involving George Pickens may have seemed far-fetched just months ago. But as the dust settles from the 2026 NFL Draft and contract realities begin to take shape, the framework for a potential partnership could take shape. Factor #1: Rams still […]
Now that the dust has settled and we’ve had some time to evaluate the entire process, I think the New Orleans Saints did a great job in the draft and had a clear vision with a patient approach. They never got aggressive or attempted to move up. If anything, they played the board and used […]
Draft data exposes troubling trends in the Miami Dolphins’ 2026 class, but fans shouldn’t panic just yet.
The Bills lost in Denver, 33-30. Overtime. Five turnovers. A Josh Allen fumble, a James Cook fumble, and a Brandin Cooks “interception” in OT that, honestly, you could argue both ways until you’re blue in the face. It was painful, it was messy, and yes — it was on no one other than the Bills. […]

The Miami Dolphins went into the 2026 NFL Draft with a serious need for a wide receiver (or two… or three) after parting ways with both Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle this offseason. The team selected Caleb Douglas out of Texas Tech with their first third round draft pick, but doubled down at the position […]
For the second year in a row, Ohio State had the most players selected in the NFL Draft of any school, with 11 total players drafted this year. Among that group, the Buckeyes boast two of the top five picks and four first-rounders (all in the top 11), along with three second-round picks and one […]
