In my other article this week, I went through some players that I thought did well for themselves at the Combine. However, not everyone had a great week in Indianapolis. Several players damaged their draft stock through underwhelming performance, unflattering measurables, or off-the-field concerns. Here, we’ll go through the players who hurt themselves at the…
We’re on our way to the 2025 NFL Draft, and one of the most exciting events for fans is the Scouting Combine. The workouts are often more for the media than for scouting purposes, but they can still create buzz for prospects who perform well. Behind the scenes, teams are doing the real tasks: learning…
With the Super Bowl complete and the coach hiring cycle basically finished, teams are shifting their focus toward the draft and free agency. Unless a team already has one, the top priority is to find a franchise quarterback. It’s not a coincidence that two of the first 3 picks in the 2025 NFL Draft are…
It seems as though everyone is posting mock drafts this week, so I figured that I should follow suit. These are just fun exercises at this point because we know nothing about trades or how teams feel about individual prospects. We’re merely giving our best current guesses based on team needs and perceived fit. Last…
You’ve probably heard all about NIL (name, image, and likeness) recently. The concept has greatly benefitted college players, who can now profit off their use in commercials, endorsements, etc. One thing you might not have been told is how the NFL Draft comes into play here. In this article, we’re going to take stock of…
Every year, hundreds of players who hoped to hear their names called go undrafted. This is not the end of their journey, however. Many of these players will be signed by NFL teams and given a chance to make their rosters; many of them will do just that. There are actually more UDFAs in the…
Now is a good time to take a step back, look at what happened over the weekend, and evaluate how we think each team did in the 2024 NFL Draft. Such analyses may prove silly within months; players drafted highly might struggle, and “project” players who were selected late could prove to be hidden gems….
The 2024 NFL Draft is done! It’s been a really fun weekend, but all good things must come to an end. Every team had at least two picks, and one (Buffalo) had seven. This gave every organization a chance to upgrade their roster depth and maybe even find starters. However, some did better than others,…
Day 2 of the 2024 NFL Draft has come to a close, and it was far more exciting than yesterday. The trades finally got flowing, and a majority of the players drafted were on defense. Those guys really deserved a good couple of rounds. We shockingly had 0 QBs, but we did get major runs…
Welcome to the 2024 NFL Draft! The first round is complete, and it was as insane as we all expected. We set numerous records in terms of QBs and offensive players selected. Nobody in the top 9 traded their picks, and defenders plummeted down the board. Most notably of all, Atlanta made the most shocking…
