Could the New York Giants come out of this year’s draft with top talent at quarterback without moving out of the sixth slot? That is the thought of Ian Valentino of The 33rd Team, who, in his latest mock draft, has North Carolina quarterback Drake Maye going to the Giants. Valentino has the Vikings trading up to the third spot, currently held by New England, but the Arizona Cardinals are sitting tight at No. 4, which appears to be the key for the sliding of Maye down the draft board. The pick certainly makes sense for the Giants. Quarterback Daniel Jones is entering a make-or-break…

There were some conversations about the Chicago Bears, Caleb Williams, Justin Fields, and the team’s draft-pick status during Friday’s wedding dress rehearsal dinner. And I’m still alive to talk about it today. Hooray for healthy and fun discussions! Keenan Allen put up 108 catches, 1,243 yards, and 7 touchdowns in 13 games with the Los Angeles Chargers last season. He made his sixth Pro Bowl in 2023 and earned Pro Football Focus’ 11th-highest grade among wideouts. D.J. Moore posted 96 catches, 1,364 receiving yards, and 8 touchdowns in 2023. He didn’t make the Pro Bowl (not like there…
The Chicago Bears will probably be selecting USC blue-chip quarterback prospect Caleb Williams with their overall no. 1 pick in the upcoming NFL draft. Picking the potential franchise-altering generational talent is pretty much a guarantee at this point. Up for debate, however, is what the Bears should do with their other first-round pick in the no. 9 spot. Some feel that another wide receiver should be targeted as an additional weapon for the incoming Williams. Names abound as to who that should be. Marvin Harrison Jr., Malik Nabers, and Rome Odunze are most tied to a Chicago wide receiver…

Dallas radio host, Shan Shariff, claims to have heard from multiple sources that Parsons has worn thin with the team. Shariff believes that his departure would be seen as a breath of fresh air by members of the Cowboys front office. Former Cowboys wide…
Entering the final year of his contract, on the fifth-year option and coming off back-to-back seasons with at least 75 catches, over 1,000 yards and at least seven touchdowns, San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk would like to get paid.According to Mike Garafolo of NFL Network in late March,, the two sides “are not close” to a deal and trade rumors around Aiyuk persist as the draft approaches. The top potential suitors are easy to name, matching need with the ability to pay Aiyuk on the back end of a trade to get him. It’s safe to say the Detroit Lions have…
After a very successful start to the 2024 NFL offseason, the Pittsburgh Steelers have some pressure on them to finish filling out their starting lineup in the draft. They still need to add a center, an offensive tackle, and a wide receiver. One new mock draft predicts they’ll make a blockbuster move to address that last need. In his latest mock draft for Pro Football Network, Brian Blewis predicted that the Steelers will make a huge splash in the first round. He proposed a trade that would see Pittsburgh send picks 20, 51, and 84 to the Bears in exchange fort he draft’s ninth pick.…
We’re just a few weeks away from the 2024 NFL Draft and it’s time to finally time to put all of the projections to the test. The Steelers need to fill a multitude of positions but should prioritize their offensive line and wide receiver room with their first few picks. Let’s take a look at how they could do that. Round 1, Pick 20: Amarius Mims, OT, Georgia Mims is probably the consensus pick at 20 for Pittsburgh – and for good reason. The Steelers completed the hat trick with the Georgia Bulldog, which included a formal meeting with him at the NFL combine, a…
