The Chicago Bears traded Justin Fields and will presumably replace him with Caleb Williams via the No. 1 pick in the NFL draft, but there is a chance history could repeat itself with whomever ends up the team’s next franchise QB. That was the point made by Hall of Fame running back Eric Dickerson in an interview with Chris Tomasson of the Denver Gazette last week. “The deal in Chicago with them drafting the kid from USC, Caleb Williams, and getting rid of that quarterback, I think they’re going to have the same situation,” Dickerson said on April 5. “Their offensive line is not good. He’s going to be…

With how inactive the Dallas Cowboys have been in free agency, one can only hope that they have a stellar draft to make up for it. Dallas has been one of the NFL’s better teams at drafting recently, but after a disappointing 2023 draft, this year will truly be a test for America’s Team. The Cowboys have clear needs at multiple positions, and with only seven picks to work with, they’ll have to make them count. One of the Cowboys’ biggest positions of need is linebacker, and they’ve been doing their due diligence ahead of this month’s draft. On Friday, they hosted Michigan Wolverines star…
The Dallas Cowboys may soon have to think about potential replacements for Dak Prescott. Prescott will enter the final year of his current contract during the 2024 season, with no “imminent” talks or contract offer in place, according to CBS Sports’ Josina Anderson. While a new contract could very well be worked out by both sides at some point, there’s also the very realistic possibility that Prescott is entering his final season in Dallas. With that in mind, FanSided’s Christopher Kline proposes a trade scenario where Dallas would make a play for the New Orleans Saints‘ Derek Carr. If Prescott bolts, this could be the Cowboys’…
Radarious Jackson has emerged as one of Tennessee’s top targets since getting a scholarship offer from the Vols nearly six months ago. He returned to Knoxville this weekend for the first time in nearly five months, but he doesn’t plan to wait that long to visit Tennessee again. The four-star Class of 2025 wide receiver from Sheffield High School in Memphis, Tenn., got a closer look at the Vols on Saturday during his visit for their final weekend practice ahead of next week’s spring-ending Orange and White Game. Tennessee again made a good impression on him while he was…

The Athletic’s Matt Barrows put together another mock this week where the San Francisco 49ers make a trade with the Miami Dolphins to move up to No. 21. The 49ers take Georgia offensive tackle Amarius Mims. The team gives away No. 31, some fourth rounds and a third rounder next year to make the move. Ok, a trade up to get this offensive line solidified is what I like! Except I don’t know about Mims, a player who has only started eight games over the past two seasons. Here’s what Barrows said on the pick: course, this depends on which tackles are still available in…
The Toronto Raptors have officially announced they are signing center Malik Williams to a 10-day contract. Williams spent the 2023-24 season with the Sioux Falls Skyforce in the NBA G League. In 33 games, Williams averaged 11.1 points, 9.3 rebounds, and 1.2 blocks per game. Despite entering the NBA Draft in 2022, eventually going undrafted, this is Williams’ first contract with an NBA team. In 2023, Williams played for the Anwil Włocławek of the Polish Basketball League. The team went on to win the 2023 FIBA Europe Cup, becoming the first Polish club to win the title. Earlier this year, Williams talked about what it meant…
Although he was not scoring, he continued to be a physical on-ice presence with 237 hits this season. Overall, Kane has scored 23 goals and totaled 41 points this season. He’s also been a physical presence on the ice, which his 81 penalty minutes attest to. Although Evander Kane has been struggling recently, he ended his 21-game goal drought in style by scoring two goals on three shots. He also finished with a plus-3 rating in the Edmonton Oilers’ 6-2 win over the Colorado Avalanche. He’s excited, not only to be back in the playoffs, but because he’s contributing on…
Jordan Anthony, the transfer from [Texas] A&M, we worked him at punt returner, [but] I think kickoff returner is going to be more of a strength for him. He has tremendous speed.” Fountain also mentioned defensive back Dylan Hasz could be in the rotation. Hasz has missed most of the spring with a broken hand. Punter update Max Fletcher, the Razorbacks’ 6-5 punter from Australia, will likely take on punting duties again as a junior. He has been the starter for two seasons and was seventh nationally in 2023 with a 46.95-yard punting average. However, Fountain said Saturday there has…
