January 20, 2020 By 4 Comments

nfl draft

Welcome to 2020 NFL Mock Draft 2.2! We had to basically start over because version 1, which you can see here, was absolutely shredded in the creation of this version.

Team needs were taken into account based on information at The Draft Network. We also did a feature on the wagering odds for what player will be the first pick, as it’s “the harrowing bye week, which no one enjoys” (h/t The Simpsons Super Bowl episode) we’ll just dive right in!

Have issues with the picks? Of course you do, let it be known in the comments section.

Cincinnati Bengals Closing in on #1 Overall NFL Draft Pick

December 21, 2019 By Leave a Comment

sarah-jones-afc-north

Welcome to the Jungle Cincinnati Bengals fans! The 2019 season has been long for quite some time, but NFL Draft talking season will get here before you know it. First comes the matter of clinching that first overall pick in the draft and all they need to do is lose tomorrow at Miami to make that happen.

In the Dolphins, they’re taking on a team that had adopted the tanking strategy, or so it seems, but now they’re winning again, trying to give the club some rationale for retaining head coach Brian Flores.

2020 NFL Draft #1 Pick: Bengals, Giants Lead Race to the Bottom

December 6, 2019 By Leave a Comment

nfl-draft

For some NFL teams, the season effectively ended a long time ago. For the worst of the worst, the likes of the Cincinnati Bengals, New York Giants and others down in the dregs with them, it’s time to look ahead to the offseason, and most specifically, the 2020 NFL Draft, which will be in Las Vegas from April 23rd-25th.

For these teams, losing on the field is actually winning in the long run, as December means tanking time. It’s something to consider when betting on NFL Games this time of year- who might be tanking? The ultimate prize here is the #1 overall pick and as it stands right now, the Bengals have the inside track with their record currently 1-11.

LSU QB Joe Burrow Odds On Favorite to be #1 Overall NFL Draft Pick

November 29, 2019 By Leave a Comment

Louisiana State quarterback Joe Burrow has the potential to join some elusive company. He’s the odds on favorite to win both the Heisman Trophy and become the #1 overall NFL Draft pick. Only six players, all QBs, have done it since the turn of the millennium.

The list consists of Kyler Murray, Baker Mayfield, Jameis Winston, Cam Newton, Sam Bradford and Carson Palmer. For half of the players on this list, they claimed the big prize at the Downtown Athletic Club in December, and then got the big money the following April. The other half did one more year of college before entering the draft.

Tottenham Hotspur Stadium Looking to Relocate NFL Team in London

October 11, 2019 By Leave a Comment

This past weekend saw Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London host the English Premier League and the American National Football League on the same weekend. The $1.25 billion stadium, which opened last spring, after several delays, was worth the wait. It’s world-class, and their next goal is to host the Premiership and the NFL on the same day.

If they can make that short term objective work, the over-arching long term objective is to get a NFL team relocated to London; as has been part of the vision since the beginning of the project. and it would make a great for home for some NFL team, but who?

2020 NFL Mock Draft 9-18-19

September 17, 2019 By 3 Comments

nfl draft

We have 2020 vision, NFL Draft style, right here, right now. It’s our fourth 2020 NFL mock draft update, and the order was based on a combination of NFL.com’s power rankings plus how we see the teams finishing the season out. Team needs were sometimes, but not often taken into account, as it’s just way too early to factor in. Obviously this will be modified many times between now and 2020 NFL Draft day.

So I implore you to really not take this very seriously, and just have fun with it. Please refrain from pointless hostility and needless acrimony in the comments section. Don’t be that guy. You have too much to do in your life than to waste it on trivial online conflict like that. Enjoy!

Most Hyped Up Cleveland Browns Season in Decades Begins Now

September 6, 2019 By Leave a Comment

cleveland browns stadium

If even a fraction of the Browns preseason hype comes to fruition, then Cleveland will rock harder than it has in quite some time. Lebron James and the 2015-16 Cavaliers finally ended the city’s long suffering championship drought, and for that they’ll always have a special place in the hearts of fans.

However, this is a Cleveland Browns town first and foremost, and nothing fires up the denizens like football. That city, state and region of the country loves the gridiron game above all other sports, and by a wide margin.

Miles Boykin: Notre Dame WR Could Still Go Round 2 of the NFL Draft

April 25, 2019 By Leave a Comment

It remains to be seen whether Notre Dame wide receiver Miles Boykin will be a day two or day three guy in the upcoming NFL Draft, but the second round is a definite possibility for him. It may also be his ceiling, given how deep and talented the wide receiver class is this time around. 

Having emphatically answered the number one question NFL teams had about him, his speed and ability to separate, there seems to be a strong, perhaps bordering on certain, sentiment that he’ll go within the first four rounds. Wednesday was Notre Dame Pro Day, and Miles Boykin caught passes from from former Fighting Irish QB and current Quarterbacks Coach Tommy Rees:

April 25, 2019 By Leave a Comment

When it comes to the NFL Draft stock of Notre Dame cornerback Julian Love, his body of work on the field speaks for itself. The Jim Thorpe award finalist was, many would argue, the best cover corner in college football this past season. 

You can see that in just how much the trajectory of the Cotton Bowl semifinal against Clemson changed when he left the game due to injury.

April 24, 2019 By Leave a Comment

All 32 NFL teams were represented at Notre Dame Pro Day yesterday with interior defensive lineman Jerry Tillery not able to physically participate in drills as he continued his recovery from surgery to repair the torn labrum he suffered early this season.

Once Notre Dame Pro Day activities were completed, Tillery met with the media where he made it clear that he’s “feeling amazing” two weeks after the procedure, and that his shoulder status is currently “outstanding.” During the week heading into the NFL Scouting Combine it was revealed that Tillery suffered the tear back in September, in a home win over Stanford.
