While the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have played nearly two seasons without now-retired center Ryan Jensen, the team could fill the big void he left when the draft rolls around next week. That’s how Buccaneers insider Ira Kaufman of JoeBucsFan.com sees it when it comes to the No. 26 pick if West Virginia center Zach Frazier lands at the spot. Kaufman wrote that “this 6-foot-3, 314-pound mauler out of West Virginia first the [Jason] Licht profile, and the Buccaneers general manager has been successful about drafting the right linemen as Kaufman noted. “He’s what the Bucs are looking for and what they so desperately need — a nasty,…

Moving the No. 8 pick in this proposed deal would allow the Falcons to land more talent to pair with Cousins and the rest of the roster. “The Atlanta Falcons addressed their biggest concern by signing veteran…

The manager will have taken a long look at himself after the way he set his Everton team…
