Photo by Brandon Sloter/Image Of Sport/ Could the athletic tight end be an option for the Broncos in the first round of the draft? One prospect who may interest the Denver Broncos in the first round of the 2024 NFL Draft is former Georgia tight end Brock Bowers. He is a 6-3, 243-pound tight end who is viewed as the top tight end in the entire draft.

Bowers played a total of three seasons at Georgia and quickly...
New mock draft has Bengals making blockbuster Tee Higgins trade
Photo by Ryan Kang/ This would be quite the move. Tee Higgins and the Cincinnati Bengals failed to come to a deal before free agency, forcing the Bengals to apply the franchise tag to keep him in stripes. From there, Higgins requested a trade so he could try to head to a different team that would be happy to pay him. No such trade has come through, but the latest NFL Mock Draft from Ian Cummings of Pro Football Network has the Bengals trading him not for a pick straight up but for a move up the board to draft his replacement. NEW MOCK DRAFT The Vikings trade the...
NFL mock draft: Patriots stay put, pick QB of the future, in new Daniel Jeremiah mock
Photo by Mike Ehrmann/ The New England Patriots have set themselves up to select a quarterback in the 2024 NFL Draft. The big question is who they will end up with?

The Patriots then pick Daniels, ahead of Michigan’s J.J. McCarthy. Pick 3 New England Patriots Jayden Daniels LSU · QB...

2024 NFL Mock Draft: Mel Kiper makes surprising pick for the Packers
Photo by Todd Rosenberg/ A few years ago, UCLA’s Laiatu Latu was medically retired. Now, he’s in the running to be picked in the first-round by Green Bay. ESPN’s Mel Kiper, the most famous draftnik of them all, just released his third mock draft of the 2024 cycle. In it, he made an interesting selection for the Green Bay Packers: UCLA pass-rusher Laiatu Latu. The 2023 All-American, who also earned the Ted Hendricks Award and Lombardi Award last season, originally began his career with the Washington Huskies, where he medically retired after just two seasons with...
WR Rome Odunze to New York Giants in latest Mel Kiper mock draft
Rome Odunze | Kirby Lee-USA TODAY Sports Kiper opts for play-making wide receiver instead of quarterback J.J. McCarthy Quarterbacks go 1-2-3 and wide receivers 4-5-6 in the latest mock draft from ESPN’s Mel Kiper. The New York Giants, with the sixth overall pick, land Washington’s Rome Odunze, giving them a much-needed potentially game-changing receiver. Kiper said he went with Odunze instead of quarterback J.J. McCarthy because he felt No. 6 was “too high” for the Michigan quarterback. He wrote: This would make back-to-back-to-back quarterbacks at the top of...

Greg Cosell’s top 5 WRs in the 2024 NFL Draft
Marvin Harrison Jr. | Photo by Sam Hodde/ Cosell is bullish on Adonai Mitchell Esteemed NFL analyst Greg Cosell dropped by the Ross Tucker Football Podcast recently to assess his view of the top five wide receivers in the 2024 NFL Draft. Since that is a topic New York Giants fans are invested in leading up to the draft, I thought I would summarize Cosell’s take on the top 5. The full episode is embedded at the bottom of the post. “I think he’s one of the better wide receiver prospects we’ve seen in a long time ... He understands route running, he understands how...
Rams 7-round mock draft: Post-free agency edition
Photo by Isaiah Vazquez/ Rams go defense-heavy in post-free agency mock draft While free agency isn’t over, the first week came and went with a lot of excitement. The Los Angeles Rams signed Jonah Jackson, Darious Williams, Colby Parkinson and Kam Curl and their big signings that should help supplement the roster. It’s possible that the Rams still add a player or two in the second wave of free agency over the next few weeks, but for the most part, the focus will now be on the draft. With Aaron Donald’s retirement announcement, it certainly spiced up the rest of...

Don’t be surprised if the Vikings slow down a bit in free agency
Kirby Lee-USA TODAY Sports They might already be looking towards 2025 The first full week of NFL free agency was an exciting one for the Minnesota Vikings. Certainly more exciting than some of us, myself included, thought it was going to be. However, it wouldn’t be a surprise to see things start to slow down a bit as we start winding towards the 2024 NFL Draft. Why? Well, because the Vikings might already be looking forward to the 2025 NFL Draft, at least in part. As we’ve pointed out over the course of various offseasons, Nick Korte from Over the Cap does a tracker...
Is Dallas Turner worth the Rams trading up for him?
Photo by Kara Durrette/ The Rams desperately need an edge rusher, but are they desperate enough to trade up in the draft? Dallas Turner has the one NFL draft advantage that every prospect wants the most. Is it speed? No. Is it size? No. Is it a Heisman Trophy like Jayden Daniels has? No. Dallas Turner has “the most buzz” at his position. That’s enough to think that at worst, an NFL owner is going to tell an NFL GM, “Hey, Turner is still on the board, why don’t we take him? I heard he’s the best edge rusher in the class!” and then an edge rusher is off the...
Cowboys free agency leaves a lot of holes, but it’s not as bad as it looks
Photo by Christian Petersen/ There are a lot of people questioning how the Dallas Cowboys are approaching free agency. It’s business as usual for the Dallas Cowboys and that means it’s time to disappoint fans who are holding their breath for some new toys to admire as the team revamps their roster. Most are conditioned for this quiet period, but it’s still concerning because the Cowboys have lost several of their own free agents and signed only one new one. Not only that, but the team is without their regular fourth- and fifth-round draft picks so their draft...

2024 NFL Draft prospect profile: Jonah Elliss, EDGE, Utah
Photo by Jordon Kelly/Icon Sportswire via Can Elliss build off his breakout 2023 season? It’s been said quite a lot, but it bears repeating: the 2024 NFL draft looks to be an deep and talented one at the most important positions on the field. And while this year’s EDGE class might not be quite as highly regarded as the tackle or wide receiver classes, this is still a good group of pass rushers. Utah edge defender Jonah Elliss was in the midst of a breakout 2023 season that saw him average 1.2 sacks and 1.6 sacks per game (12.0 and 16.0 on the season, respectively)...

Photo by David Berding/ Another departure for the purple The Minnesota Vikings are saying farewell to another free agent, one that missed almost all of last season.

What’s the plan at Seahawks offensive line
Photo by Jesse Beals/Icon Sportswire via The Seahawks have consistently fielded young and inexperienced offensive lines during the tenure of John Schneider, and fans shouldn’t expect that to change going forward. As the Seattle Seahawks prepare for the 2024 NFL season, one of the big question marks surrounds the offensive line. The 2022 season appeared to lay the foundation for a bright future for the group, with bookend tackles Charles Cross and Abe Lucas looking to be able to lead the way forward. Then came the 2023 NFL Draft, which gave the Hawks Anthony...
How much the Seahawks are paying Rayshawn Jenkins
Photo by Perry Knotts/ After creating a need at safety by making cap cuts, the Seahawks addressed that need by signing the former Chargers and Jaguars safety. The first wave of free agency came and went, and the Seattle Seahawks added players at several key positions on the field, addressing needs and filling holes ahead of the 2024 NFL Draft. One of the biggest positions of need was at safety, where the Hawks had created a significant hole with the release of Quandre Diggs and Jamal Adams ahead of the start of the new league year. The Hawks moved quickly to fill that...

Ex-Raven Hollywood Brown signs deal with Chiefs and looks forward to playing with Patrick Mahomes
Hollywood Brown signed a one-year deal with the Kansas City Chiefs that could be worth up to $11 million. The former Oklahoma star was drafted by Baltimore and spent the past two seasons with Arizona, but Kansas City expressed interest in him all the way back to the 2019 draft. The Chiefs hope his speed and versatility can upgrade what was one of the worst wide receiver groups in the NFL last season. Brown is hoping to turn the one-year, prove-it deal into a more lucrative multi-year deal next offseason. He has struggled with injuries that limited him to 26 games over the past two seasons.
