The Chicago Bears’ offensive line is the most important area of need for the front office to address this offseason. In 2024, the unit allowed rookie quarterback Caleb Williams to get sacked 68 times which was by far the most in the NFL. Based on performance metrics and contracts, it is likely that only Darnell…
The Toronto Maple Leafs made two roster moves on Monday, assigning forward Fraser Minten to the AHL’s Toronto Marlies and recalling defenseman Dakota Mermis. The decision allows Minten, the No. 2 prospect in Toronto’s pipeline, to get more ice time in the AHL while opening the door for Mermis to potentially make his Maple Leafs…
With one game left to this NFL postseason, it’s apparent new Bears coach Ben Johnson has two things wrong. He’ll argue the other way and actually did during his introductory press conference. The fact he’s so far off base is alarming, and it needs to be discussed. The first is a bit comical. Johnson claimed he was happy to stay in…
Cooper Kupp is almost assured of getting traded, and it’s hard not to see why the Carolina Panthers might be interested. Age and injuries are an issue with Kupp, but he would give Bryce Young another extremely reliable target outside of Adam Thielen. A corps of Thielen, Kupp, Xavier Legette, and Jalen Coker would be pretty strong, too. The fit…
The Carolina Panthers were named this week by Pro Football Focus as a potential landing spot for one of the top available free agent defensive linemen. PFF thinks Arizona Cardinals edge rusher Baron Browning could be a good fit in Carolina. Browning, a third round selection by the Denver Broncos in the 2021 NFL Draft,…
The Baltimore Ravens are known for finding value in free agency, often signing under-the-radar players who go on to play key roles in their system — like their 2024 off-season signing of running back Derrick Henry. While they are unlikely to be big spenders this offseason, the team could still make smart, strategic moves to…
Despite a disappointing 2024 season in which neither he nor the San Francisco 49ers matched the heights of their Super Bowl run in the 2023 campaign, the likelihood is quarterback Brock Purdy will receive very lucrative contract extension at some point this offseason. Purdy has enjoyed a remarkable rise since being selected by the 49ers…
Philadelphia Eagles Wide Receiver had an eye-opening quote at Super Bowl opening night. He said, “At every level of my life, I have played in a championship game.” That seems too good to be true but it is the case. Smith won two College Football Playoff National Championships at the University of Alabama. He helped…
The New York Jets clearly should be looking for ways to improve the roster this offseason. New York has done a great job with the coaching staff and the roster obviously is the next step for the team. Once the Super Bowl ends and we get to the offseason, we will start to see movement…
New England Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel is already up to his old antics that he became so well-known for with the Tennessee Titans. As good of a coach as Vrabel was/is, Titans fans continuously got frustrated with him for hiring his coaching staff from a network of people he had an existing working relationship…
In their search for a Cooper Kupp trade partner, the Rams are willing to eat some of the money remaining on the star wide receiver’s contract, according to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler. Kupp is set to earn $20M in 2025, made up of $12.5M in base salary and a $7.5M 90-man roster bonus due on March 17, per ProFootballTalk and OverTheCap….
Entering the NFL offseason, the Las Vegas Raiders have quite a few needs to focus on. Obviously, there is one need that stands out above the rest. The Raiders badly need to bring in an upgrade at the quarterback position. Looking at the available options, Las Vegas should be able to land one. Whether they get their…
