It seemed in March that the Cleveland Browns were planning to make Colorado wide receiver/cornerback Travis Hunter the second pick of the 2025 NFL Draft with the idea that they could attempt to grab Alabama quarterback Jalen Milroe later in the player-selection process.  However, ESPN’s Mel Kiper Jr. shared in his latest mock draft published

The top of the 2025 receiver class is not held in the same regard as previous drafts. Nevertheless, teams in need of pass-catching help are doing homework on the best options in this month’s event. One of those is Emeka Egbuka. The Ohio State product met with the Cowboys recently, ESPN’s Adam

It’s unclear if quarterback Deshaun Watson will ever play another in-game down of football for the Cleveland Browns after Browns owner Jimmy Haslam admitted back on March 31 that the club “took a big swing and miss with” the acquisition of Watson in March 2022 that included handing him a

As recently as Monday, noteworthy members of the football community suggested that Shedeur Sanders could drop down to the 20s of the 2025 NFL Draft order, even though Sanders is widely viewed as the second-best quarterback of this year’s class behind only Miami’s Cam Ward. In his latest mock draft published

Edge-rusher may not be the New York Giants‘ biggest need heading into the 2025 NFL Draft, but why pass on a prospect who’s drawing Micah Parsons comparisons?

The 2025 NFL Draft is now 16 days away and for the fourth time in franchise history, the Arizona Cardinals own the 16th pick. This year, they’ve been linked to these players in various mock drafts.  DT Walter Nolen | Ole Miss Nolen had 66 tackles and five sacks in

Some football fans were surprised to learn over the weekend that Alabama quarterback Jalen Milroe had accepted an invitation to attend the 2025 NFL Draft, largely because multiple analysts previously predicted Milroe wouldn’t be a first-round pick. On Monday, NFL insiders Ian Rapoport of NFL Network (h/t Sports Illustrated) and Armando Salguero of OutKick mentioned that it appears Milroe

While it’s now clear that the Pittsburgh Steelers hope and expect that they’ll eventually have Aaron Rodgers as their starting quarterback for the 2025 NFL season, outsiders continue to believe Rodgers is waiting for the Minnesota Vikings to decide if they’re ready to turn to 2024 first-round draft choice J.J.

New England Patriots defensive tackle Christian Barmore missed the majority of the 2024 season due to a recurring blood clot issue, but it appears he is trending in the right direction. Barmore participated in the first day of the Patriots’ voluntary offseason workout program on Monday. The team shared a

Christian Barmore missed most of last season with recurring symptoms from blood clots, but he’s expected to be a full participant at Patriots practices. Mike Vrabel told reporters (including ESPN’s Mike Reiss) that Barmore has been given clearance to participate in the team’s voluntary offseason program, which started today. “He

Miami Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill has been the center of attention this offseason, posting several cryptic posts indicating that the Dolphins could potentially trade him. The 31-year-old receiver could be trolling. However, when a player produces this much noise, there is a legitimate reason to believe there is more under

J.J. Watt has received plenty of recognition for being one of the best defensive players to ever take an NFL field, and the former Houston Texans star believes one current linebacker deserves more of it. Analytics expert Aaron Schatz of FTN Fantasy shared a chart on Monday that showed which

Alabama quarterback Jalen Milroe‘s arrow seemingly keeps pointing up before the start of the 2025 NFL Draft on April 24.  On Monday, Fox Sports’ Jordan Schultz reported that the Cleveland Browns and the New Orleans Saints had “impressive” workouts with Milroe.

Like all other teams, the Raiders are busy hosting several prospects in advance of this month’s draft. One of the players headed to Vegas this week is the top running back in the 2025 class. The Raiders are set to host Ashton Jeanty, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. He adds

During that stretch, he made 41

Some members of the NFL community previously suggested that Las Vegas Raiders minority owner Tom Brady didn’t want to commit real money to quarterback Geno Smith beyond the 2025 campaign after the club acquired Smith from the Seattle Seahawks earlier this offseason.  However, such takes looked at least a little silly

The Las Vegas Raiders could use a running back and another quarterback. Apparently, they’ll try to fill both holes in the 2025 NFL Draft, scheduled for April 24-26 in Green Bay. Per NFL Media’s Ian Rapoport, the Raiders are set to meet with Boise State RB Ashton Jeanty (5-foot-9, 211

Dee Alford did not receive an RFA tender from the Falcons this offseason.

While it appears to outsiders that the Minnesota Vikings are serious about naming 2024 first-round draft choice J.J. McCarthy their starting quarterback this spring or summer, the fact that Aaron Rodgers began Monday afternoon as a free agent has some still wondering if he could retire or remain a possible option

The No. 1 pick in the 202 draft will remain in place for at least two more years. The Jaguars announced on Monday that defensive end Travon Walker‘s fifth-year option has been exercised. As a result of today’s decision, Walker will remain under team control through 2026. The Georgia product qualifies

Perhaps the most noteworthy thing about Colorado’s pro day on April 4 is the fact that numerous reporters and analysts walked away from those workouts believing that both the Cleveland Browns (pick No. 2) and New York Giants (No. 3) will pass on selecting Buffaloes quarterback Shedeur Sanders on the

During the recent league meetings, Steelers owner Art Rooney II confirmed signs continue to point to Aaron Rodgers signing with the team.

Some assumed shortly after details of the one-year contract Russell Wilson received from the New York Giants went public that the Giants structured that deal in a way that would make it relatively easy for the club to bench Wilson in favor of an unknown rookie later this fall.  For

The Buccaneers were not among the teams which made a major free agent splash at the cornerback spot. That position thus represents one to watch on the draft front. “We don’t have a lot of depth,” head coach Todd Bowles said during the league meetings (via NFL.com). “That’s crystal clear — we don’t have

Coming off Colorado’s pro day workouts, numerous reporters and analysts have suggested that it’s now more likely the Cleveland Browns will take wide receiver/cornerback Travis Hunter instead of quarterback Shedeur Sanders with the second pick of the 2025 NFL Draft.  For his latest mock draft posted on Monday morning, The Athletic’s Nick

One year remains on T.J. Watt‘s contract, and he could be the next high-profile edge rusher in the NFL to secure a notable payday. An extension is known to be on the Steelers’ to-do list, and further signs are pointing to one being worked out. When speaking to the media about

Last season, we saw 32-year-old veteran pass rusher Shaquil Barrett ride a roller coaster of availability with the Dolphins and Buccaneers.

The draft’s top-ranked defensive tackle by several analysts continues to make the rounds with the teams in the top 10 picks of the 2025 NFL Draft. Michigan’s Mason Graham is certainly a likely candidate to come off the board early, the big question is where exactly he’ll go. After taking

Could Alabama quarterback Jalen Milroe go much higher in the 2025 NFL Draft than many expect? On Sunday, The Athletic’s Dane Brugler tweeted Milroe accepted his invitation to the draft, scheduled for April 24-26 in Green Bay. It’s worth noting the league is being more selective with prospects who are

The Dolphins, as expected, saw Jevon Holland depart on the open market. Since they have also elected not to retain fellow starter Jordan Poyer, safety is a position of need entering the draft. Many mock drafts from the end of the 2024 campaign and shortly thereafter understandably connected Miami to safety Malaki Starks.

That Milroe even received an invitation is interesting, as those are typically reserved for likely first-round picks. Milroe is not necessarily seen as that. There is certainly a risk that he ends up in the unenviable position of being left in the green room after the first round. On the

2028 will mark the debut of flag football as an Olympic event. The prospect of NFL players taking part has been raised on several occasions, so to no surprise it was a topic of discussion at the recent league meetings. When speaking to the media on the subject, commissioner Roger Goodell said
