Connor Rogers of NBC Sports told Jets team reporter Ethan Greenberg that the green and white won’t be able to solve that problem in free agency. “I just don’t think you’re going to be…

Michigan Wolverines quarterback JJ McCarthy is one of the most important players in the program’s history. However, after helping lead his team to a national championship, there appears to be one big knock on McCarthy ahead of the 2024 NFL Draft that he can’t address. McCarthy, age 21, has already faced questions for his lack of involvement in the offense late in the year. After emerging as a Heisman Trophy candidate heading into November, the Wolverines started dialing back McCarthy’s pass attempts and became a more run-heavy team.
The NY Jets are expected to explore a number of avenues to add some wide receiver help this offseason, but one recent trade proposal from a former NFL general manager probably wouldn’t be the wisest approach. Former Jets general manager Mike Tannenbaum appeared on ESPN’s “Get Up” on Friday and proposed an outside-the-box trade idea involving the Jets and Dallas Cowboys. Tannenbaum suggested the Jets could swap star linebacker C.J. Mosley for Cowboys wide receiver Brandin Cooks in a one-for-one trade. The suggestion caught the rest of the panel by surprise, including former Jets linebacker Bart Scott, who…
The Detroit Lions could lose both starting offensive guards in free agency this offseason. But fortunately, there likely will be a lot of quality guards available to sign. Pro Football Focus’ Brad Spielberger named the Lions a potential landing spot for veteran right guard Kevin Zeitler. He will turn 34 in March, but Zeitler is coming off another elite season in which he earned his first Pro Bowl nomination. “Zeitler was looking for an extension from the Ravens before the season, but it never came to pass,” Spielberger wrote. “Baltimore has so many key free-agent decisions that perhaps…

The Michigan Wolverines haven’t lost many players since Jim Harbaugh left for the NFL. Sherrone Moore was hired, and the team mostly stayed intact. A few fringe players decided to leave, but the NFL Draft has taken more talent than the transfer portal. However, they could not stay immune forever. Defensive back Keon Sabb announced he is entering the transfer portal. The former four-star recruit played in all 14 games this season for the Wolverines. For a reserve player, his stats were solid. He had 28 tackles, two interceptions, four pass breakups, and six passes defended. His decision likely stems…
With Super Bowl LVIII past the NFL, teams like the Pittsburgh Steelers have begun to turn their attention to the highly-anticipated 2024 NFL Draft. The Steelers were able to beat the odds and make the postseason though they lost in the Wild Card Round to the Buffalo Bills. However, Pittsburgh proved once again that they’re capable of winning games in a multitude of ways. The upcoming draft is an important one for the Steelers as they have several needs on the roster they need to fill. The jury is still out on Kenny Pickett who has been…
The Lions haven’t had a true WR-X in almost three seasons, and Thomas would be a plug-and-play starter at that spot. Stylistically he would fit in beautifully and would immediately upgrade the Lions’ top-five offense even further. But would general manager Brad Holmes spend a first-round pick on an offensive skill player for the third year in a row? I’ve learned my lesson and am not ruling anything out. Offensive linemen None Erik’s Thoughts: It’s a bit surprising to not see an offensive lineman linked to the Lions this week—especially with both starting guard’s contracts expiring—but I attribute…
