WASHINGTON, D.C. — “Seahawk Basketball.” Takayo Siddle’s hard-nosed, no-mountain-high-enough style of basketball didn’t die today. It might’ve gotten a reality check, though. You could feel it inside the CareFirst Arena. A pro-Seahawk crowd — some who made the trip from sunny Wilmington, some who live nearby — sat patiently, waiting for their beloved UNCW to […]

The San Francisco 49ers locked up arguably their most important free agent on Saturday by inking kicker Eddy Pineiro to an extension that is as team-friendly as it gets after the season he just had. Is Jalen Carter worth the 49ers’ 1st-round pick? According to Easton Butler of 247 Sports, the Philadelphia Eagles have received […]
Duke’s charmed season continues as the Blue Devils rallied to take out Louisville 70-65 in overtime to earn its second-straight ACC Championship. Not that it was easy. Louisville was the dominant team for much of the afternoon and was in control, or should have been, at the end of regulation. However, Duke, down 55-51, with […]
In a move that feels anti-climatic for Colts fans, Chris Ballard and the Indianapolis Colts front office are bringing back kicker Blake Grupe on a 1 year $1.4 million deal. Grupe was very good for the Colts in his five games last season, going 11 for 11 on field goals and 10 out of 10 […]
The hunt for the Dallas Cowboys’ next edge rusher has begun. The Cowboys watched the Maxx Crosby sweepstakes pass them by like a blur, and now all eyes have shifted toward Trey Hendrickson as the shiny new toy in the display window. While Hendrickson would look fantastic with a star on his helmet, his price […]
The 2027 NFL Free agent period kicks off Monday with the legal tampering period, and the new league year will officially start on Wednesday, the 11th. Compensatory picks are a large part of the NFL’s free agent equation essentially awarding teams for their losses in free agency. The Raiders are likely to be awarded a […]
The NFL’s legal tampering period is just around the corner on March 9, but the Steelers have yet to re-sign any of their players set to hit the open market. It’s a near-guarantee some will return in the coming days, but there might not be as much mutual interest between Pittsburgh and its free agents […]
After New Orleans worked their way to go under the $301.2 million cap with several contract restructures, it opened the door to add veteran talent on defense from free agency. This off-season, the former Lions linebacker, Alex Anzalone, has entered free agency, while the Saints are seeking additional veteran help for the secondary. Anzalone could […]
One day before the legal tampering period begins and free agents start flying off the board, ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler has reported that teams are looking into two Green Bay Packers wide receivers who are set for contract years: Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks. “Also, [A.J.] Brown isn’t the only receiver potentially available. Baltimore’s Rashod Bateman, […]
Tonight I may wake up in a cold sweat screaming “REBOUND!” Louisville was out rebounded today 42 to 34 with Duke having 19 offensive rebounds. Every time the Cards would force a bad shot it was nullified by the fact that the Blue Devils would grab the rebound. Duke only shot 39% for the game. […]
Go get ‘em, Hunter.
It’s hard to know without exact contract details, but the Green Bay Packers probably have a little room between them and the ceiling of the salary cap now that they’ve done a simple restructure of left guard Aaron Banks. Not enough to go on a spending spree, but enough to add one more modestly priced […]
4:30 on a Sunday would seem more normal a start time for a Boston-Pittsburgh game in the NFL, but here we are! The Bruins and Penguins face one another for the second time this week, with Tuesday’s Bruins win coming at TD Garden. While the Penguins appear to be in relatively comfortable playoff position at […]
NFL free agency (un)officially begins Monday at Noon EST with the legal tampering window opening, allowing players and teams to negotiate deals before making them official starting Wednesday. It’s all but certain that the Pittsburgh Steelers will be signing a veteran quarterback – whether that be a returning Aaron Rodgers or another name on the […]
Free agency is set to begin. Legal tampering kicks off tomorrow at noon eastern time, and teams can make outside signings official at 4 p.m. on Wednesday when the new league year officially starts. It’s a busy, heady period for every NFL team. Will it be a transformative one for the Falcons? Probably not, given […]
It’s very likely the Las Vegas Raiders will draft Fernando Mendoza to make him their long-term starting quarterback. But the team will need more quarterbacks as well, especially considering Raiders general manager John Spytek recently suggested he may not want to start a rookie quarterback at the beginning of the season. So someone may be […]
The Ravens became the latest team to trade two first round picks for a player on Friday, acquiring Maxx Crosby in a deal with the Raiders. After a three-year break from those blockbuster trades, the NFL saw Sauce Gardner and Micah Parsons got for two first round picks in 2025, the first such monster trades […]
Monday marks the beginning of the NFL legal tampering period and usher in weeks of changes across football. Beginning at noon, NFL teams are free to discuss deals with players in anticipation of the start of the league year on Wednesday. Free agency doesn’t officially begin until Wednesday at 4:00 EST, but a plethora of […]
One of the best ways to project a team’s offseason activity is to see what the roster would look like without any new additions or re-signings. Naturally, what you already have in-house and under contract plays a large part in determining your needs. But this goes far beyond having enough names to fill up a […]
This past week, we here at Buffalo Rumblings were curious to get a pulse on readers’ thoughts ahead of free-agency’s start. Specifically: should the Bills be able to make just one “splash” free-agent signing, where should the focus land? Of course, this was prior to the news that One Bills Drive managed to get a […]
The Green Bay Packers were under the cap after re-signing running back Chris Brooks and converting the majority of safety Xavier McKinney’s 2026 money into a signing bonus, which allows the Packers to spread those cap dollars over multiple seasons — saving them short-term cap space. Since then, though, Green Bay has traded for linebacker […]
This week, we asked Jacksonville Jaguars fans which position the team should target with its first pick in the 2026 NFL Draft. Over half of the respondents chose defensive line, and 70% chose defensive line or cornerback. According to FanDuel Sportsbook, Indiana quarterback Fernando Mendoza has -20000 odds to be the first overall pick. That […]
