The San Francisco 49ers haven’t exactly developed a pipeline of talent through the draft recently, leaving the foundation of their team in question in the coming years. Running back is a perfect example. They missed on picks in back-to-back seasons, then pulled the plug and said, “Enough of this, let’s go get an All-Pro.” There’s […]
It hasn’t even been a week since the 2026 NFL Draft ended, but surely there are some of you who have your sights set on 2027. Arch Manning is going to create some conversations. Time will tell what the Dallas Cowboys are looking for in that draft, but one thing is for certain and that […]

The Falcons made six picks in the 2026 NFL Draft, and Kevin Knight and Tre’Shon Diaz are here to bring you their thoughts on each of them. How do players like Avieon Terrell and Zachariah Branch fit in Atlanta, and how did Ian Cunningham and the new brain trust fare in their first NFL Draft? […]
Monday night at PNC park the Pirates had a 2-0 lead going into the top of the 9th vs the St. Louis Cardinals. Dennis Santana came in for the save with the 2 run lead and struggled. Santana allowed a solo home run to Pedro Pages and allowed another solo shot to the very next […]
The give and take of the NFL is consistent with roster changes happening throughout the year and around tentpole events. The start of the NFL league year sees the opening of NFL free agency, where teams shuffle bodies in an attempt to right the wrongs of the past season or add to the success from […]
The Miami Dolphins shocked their fanbase last Thursday when they selected Alabama offensive lineman Kadyn Proctor with the twelfth pick in the 2026 NFL Draft after trading back one spot with the Dallas Cowboys — passing on two fan favorites, Caleb Downs and Reuben Bain Jr., in the process. While many of Miami’s fans were […]
The New Orleans Saints are signing cornerback Martin Emerson Jr, per Ian Rapoport. The signing comes after Emerson made a visit to New Orleans on Tuesday. New Orleans was expected to fill their need to add to the secondary in the draft, but the board didn’t fall that way early on. While they did add […]
The Buffalo Bills picked Clemson EDGE T.J. Parker with 35th pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, after three trade backs moved them completely out of the first round for the second time in three years. As a massive draft nerd and longtime draft analyst that even pre-dates by past job dedicated to the NFL Draft […]
With the draft behind us, I wanted to look at John Schneider’s best decisions in the most recent Seattle Seahawks drafts. This comes to us at an especially interesting time because the San Francisco 49ers and Los Angeles Rams had such weird drafts of their own. Quite enough has been made of the historic 2022 […]
It’s almost impossible to judge the true value of a draft pick in real time. People love labeling selections as “reaches” or “steals,” but that kind of talk is more guesswork than anything else at this point. What actually matters is how a player performs over time on the field and that obviously takes time […]
I apologize in advance to readers who want a clear, quick argument in their Chicago Bears coverage. This is not that. It is, instead, an exploration of a quirk of data that I did not know existed until a few hours before writing this. I often begin researching articles with a simple data pull in […]
It comes with the territory of being the No. 1 overall pick of the 2026 NFL draft, but new Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Fernando Mendoza has been unfairly scrutinized as a “one-year wonder”. Sure, the Heisman trophy winner’s best season was this past one at Indiana. But make no mistake about it, he was a […]
The Green Bay Packers aren’t huge spenders in undrafted free agency (yes, guaranteed money is a major factor for signing top players), but they do pick their spots at times. Whatever they’re doing is right, though, as the team has had an undrafted rookie make the team for 21 consecutive years. Who will it be […]
After an earlier report on this topic, the University of Miami announced today that Athletic Director Dan Radakovich will be retiring effective June 1st. Here’s the press release from Miami Athletics: CORAL GABLES, Fla. – The University of Miami announced today that Vice President and Director of Athletics Dan Radakovich will retire effective June 1, 2026.

Happy Tuesday one and all. As is customary from Revenge of the Birds we are always excited to announce the signings of each of the undrafted free agents. Today, we announce all seven of them, while we will take the time to write individually about each of the seven because this could be their one […]
The Falcons completed their 2026 NFL Draft class on Saturday, winding up with six total picks. Atlanta general manager Ian Cunningham made quite the first impression with his Day 2 selections, and pulled off a trade down for an additional late pick on Day 3. Despite the lack of a first-round selection due to the […]
The Miami Dolphins may need to look at Texas Tech QB Brendan Sorsby amid his gambling scandal that could impact his eligibility.
The AFL has fired an official whose appeals board claimed that athletes, particularly young men, should be expected to use gay slurs.
Following the NFL Draft, the San Francisco 49ers have a new look to their linebacker room. Early in free agency, Dre Greenlaw returned to San Francisco to pair back up with Fred Warner. Dee Winters started next to Warner last season and performed admirably before a late-season decline, which was partly due to an injury. […]
The Seattle Seahawks loaded up on cornerbacks in the 2026 NFL Draft, taking Arkansas’ Julian Neal in the third round, followed by Toledo’s Andre Fuller and Arizona’s Michael Dansby in the seventh round. We’ll focus on the Neal and Fuller selections. They’re both known for being physical corners who excel in zone coverage, which is […]
The Detroit Lions surprised many by taking a wide receiver in the fifth round of the 2026 NFL Draft, and they may not be done adding to the position. According to a couple different reports, the Lions are hosting at least two veteran receivers for free agent visits on Tuesday. Per Aaron Wilson, the Lions […]
Coming into the draft, the Cowboys needed to make a splash. Armed with two first-round picks after the Micah Parsons trade, the Cowboys were set up with enough resources to get premium talent or move up in the draft if they chose to do so. Even though the Cowboys had top options early in the […]
You may remember last week, right before the draft, I laid out a more holistic vision for what I wanted to see from the Jets. Fast forward a week, and the draft has come and gone. For the most part, I walked away encouraged. Bits and pieces have come out about how the Jets prepared […]
