For the rookies, undrafted free agents and veterans who gathered in Orchard Park Friday and Saturday, Rookie Minicamp represented their first opportunity to make a great impression on Brandon Beane and Joe Brady while stating their case to earn a spot on the Buffalo Bills roster.

De’Von Achane wants a new contract. The Miami Dolphins want to re-sign De’Von Achane. So, what’s the hold-up? To answer that, we need to look at the bigger picture. In 2025, Achane rushed for 1,350 yards and eight touchdowns, and caught 67 passes for 480 yards and four receiving touchdowns. A stellar year by all […]
What will a true open QB competition look like? How would fans truly be able to know what is happening on the practice fields? I know there is a faction of fans who prefer that JJ gets to start or wins the competition and that is cool. I just am not reading the tea leaves […]
I’ve written often about the Los Angeles Rams’ tackling woes over the past year. What at first glanced seemed like a late-season blip now appears to be a more troubling multi-year trend for several of LA’s core defensive building blocks. Poor tackling may be a feature rather than a late-season bug. Background content on the […]
Before yesterday’s match, I spent a couple hours in the sun with my family and in-laws, drinking wine in the sun, eating good food, and watching my daughters run around like only a 3 and 6 year olds can. I took a second car to the park so I could leave early to watch Liverpool […]
Happy Mother’s Day to all the McCoven who hopefully have better things to do than watch this dreadful baseball team. But if this is your chosen way of spending the day, then welcome, and may the Giants beat the Pittsburgh Pirates to win the series for you. Right-hander Tyler Mahle takes the mound for the […]

Rams receiver Puka Nacua needs 1,709 receiving yards next season to pass Justin Jefferson for the most ever through a player’s first four seasons. If Nacua stays healthy and out of trouble, he’s already proven that he’s capable of doing that: Nacua had 1,715 receiving yards last season. In doing so, Nacua passed Randy Moss […]

One of the more underrated storylines throughout the summer and heading into the 2026 preseason could end up revolving around the running back position simply because of how important it is to the Todd Monken offense. It’s no secret that Monken relies very heavily on the run game when it comes to the success of […]
Let’s play out a little thought exercise. You are plucked from your couch and asked to conduct the NFL draft for the Chicago Bears. You’ll sit in a room with a landline phone to call in the picks to New York and you won’t be let out until the draft concludes. No cell phones, no […]
The race for Bradley Barcola has shifted into a higher gear. FC Barcelona are just one of the teams interested; it’s becoming a crowded pack of heavyweights. While Sky Germany reports that Arsenal has already jumped the gun by opening talks with the winger’s representatives, Paris Saint-Germain isn’t exactly rolling out the red carpet for […]
By now we all know wide receiver George Pickens will play the 2026 NFL season under the $27.3 million franchise tag and the Dallas Cowboys have no intentions of trading him. What we don’t know is what’s next for these two? Does Pickens have a long-term future in Dallas? Today, we dive into the Cowboys […]
For those who have followed my coverage of Cleveland sports for the 15+ years I’ve been doing it, you know I have three types of teams that I like the most: Most fans like the first two, who wouldn’t like a team that has a reasonable chance of winning a title or a young team […]
The Dodgers host the longtime rival San Francisco Giants for four games beginning Monday night at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles. Roki Sasaki starts the series opener, this time on eight days rest after the slight rotation shuffle with Blake Snell returning from his rehab assignment to start on Saturday against the Atlanta Braves. This […]
For a while, the bullpen was, shockingly, the only part of the San Francisco Giants that was competent. But lately that hasn’t been the case. San Francisco’s bullpen has fallen apart recently: since the start of the month, Giants relievers are 24th in ERA (6.33), 26th in FIP (4.98), 28th in fWAR (-0.4), 28th in […]
Life as a college student-athlete is challenging enough. Throw on the responsibility of being an Air Force cadet and the difficulty is ratcheted up magnitudes higher. Only 12 players who graduated from the Air Force Academy have ever played a game in the NFL (not including several players who transferred out during their college careers). […]
The battle is simple in concept: The grizzled aging veteran looking to recapture former glory versus an intriguing and accurate (but older) undrafted free agent. That’s the easiest way to sum up the upcoming Las Vegas Raiders kicking competition between Matt Gay and Kansei Matsuzawa. But the battle between the 32-year-old Gay and 27-year-old Matsuzawa […]
We continue scouting the 2026 NFL Draft class for the Dallas Cowboys by looking at the undrafted free agent class. Today we are looking at offensive tackle Shiyazh Pete from Kentucky. Shiyazh Pete OTKentucky WildcatsSeniorNo recruit rating6’9”309 lbs History Pete’s first year in college was 2021 at New Mexico State. Pete redshirted and did not appear in a game for […]
When the Cleveland Browns selected “EMW” at the end of the 2nd round in this year’s NFL Draft, nobody could believe their eyes. Most mock drafts and big boards had him as more of a late 1st-round to early 2nd-round pick, regardless of him being a mid-major player at the University of Toledo. He quickly […]
The Miami Dolphins want to change their culture, but it has to start with the QB. Malik Willis is delivering that message.
For most of the offseason, Seattle Seahawks fans expected Seattle to make a splash at EDGE. The rumors were everywhere. Big names, cheap projects were constantly connected to the team, while Boye Mafe’s departure increasingly felt inevitable after reports surfaced that Seattle explored trade possibilities around the deadline last year. Add in the uncertainty surrounding […]
The Pittsburgh Steelers held their rookie minicamp on Friday and Saturday, which marked the first time their draft class donned Steelers colors. It also laid the foundation for a budding relationship between quarterback Drew Allar and wide receiver Germie Bernard. Allar was the only quarterback at rookie minicamp, something head coach Mike McCarthy said was […]
When Mike LaFleur was being interviewed for the head coaching vacancy with the Arizona Cardinals, the offensive-minded coach first took a look at the quarterback situation. He saw a QB room of two veteran QBs with Kyler Murray and Jacoby Brissett. After LaFleur took the helm of the team, it was decided to let Murray […]
