The days after the NFL Draft are the ultimate hype festival. It's like going to SXSW and thinking every band you see in a random bar is going to be the next big thing. Then you get home, and within a month, you've forgotten the names of over half of those bands. That's the draft. […]

Justin Carter 4 years agoThey Took Who??? The Most Confusing NFL Draft Picks
Every year, the NFL holds a draft, and every year during that draft, 32 NFL teams make decisions that will positively impact the team going forward. But every year, some teams also make decisions that are...confusing. Confounding. Puzzling. Whatever adjective you want to use, teams make decisions that leave us, the outsiders watching the draft, […]

Justin Carter 4 years agoWashington Selects Dax Milne
With the second-to-last pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Washington Football Team selected the final offensive player of this year's event, grabbing BYU wide receiver Dax Milne. Milne is a great value at this stage, having caught 70 passes for 1,188 yards and eight touchdowns last season. He's a smart receiver who should play […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoLions Pick Running Back Jermar Jefferson
With the 257th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Detroit Lions have selected Oregon State running back Jermar Jefferson. Jefferson is arguably one of the top 10 running back prospects in this year's draft, making this a huge steal for the Lions. The issue for Jefferson? This team didn't really need a running back, […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoPackers Select Kylin Hill In Seventh Round
With the 256th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Green Bay Packers have selected Mississippi State running back Kylin Hill. It's a little shocking to see Hill fall this far, as he was a well-regarded running back prospect. In theory, he can add a needed pass-catching element to the Packers backfield, but with Aaron […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoSaints Draft Kawaan Baker
With the 255th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the New Orleans Saints have selected South Alabama wide receiver Kawaan Baker. A slot receiver with some nice speed, Baker had 51 receptions for 659 yards and eight touchdowns last year. He could be used as a gadget player and see some work in the backfield, […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoRams Take Wide Receiver Ben Skowronek
With the 249th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Los Angeles Rams have selected Notre Dame wide receiver Ben Skowronek. L.A. isn't a great landing spot at this point for a wide receiver hoping to make an impact in the league, but Skowronek has some nice size and could contribute on special teams, even […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoDolphins Take Running Back Gerrid Doaks
With the 244th pick of the 2021 NFL Draft, the Miami Dolphins have selected Cincinnati running back Gerrid Doaks. Miami was a team that many thought would go running back earlier, but it appears they're good with rolling into 2021 with Myles Gaskin as the starter. Doaks was a surprising choice as he didn't come […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoPatriots Grab Receiver Tre Nixon
With the 242nd pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the New England Patriots have selected UCF wide receiver Tre Nixon. Seventh rounders don't see a lot of snaps in the NFL, but the Patriots have an unusually weak receiving group, so maybe Nixon could crack the rotation? He's not the most explosive player in this […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoRams Take Running Back Jake Funk
With the 233rd pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Los Angeles Rams have selected Maryland running back Jake Funk. Funk had multiple ACL injuries in college, but then had a solid senior season, with 60 carries for 516 yards in four games. If healthy, Funk could find some playing time, but the best projection […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoColts Draft Mike Strachan
With the first pick of the seventh round of the 2021 NFL Draft, the Indianapolis Colts have drafted Charleston wide receiver Mike Strachan. He had 27 touchdowns in his two seasons as a starter with the team, but it's always hard to know how a Division II player will adjust to the NFL. He's got […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoChicago Bears Draft Dazz Newsome
With the 221st pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Chicago Bears have selected North Carolina wide receiver Dazz Newsome. A 1,000 yard receiver in 2019, Newsome has 16 receiving touchdowns over the past two seasons. He's undersized, but has appeal as a slot project at the next level. Chicago could use some help at […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoBroncos Add Auburn Receiver Seth Williams
With the 219th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Denver Broncos have selected Auburn wide receiver Seth Williams. Williams is coming off of a 47-catch, 760-yard 2020 season that saw him catch four touchdowns. He's led the team in receiving two years in a row. He's not the most consistent receiver in the world, […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoColts Take Sam Ehlinger
With the 218th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Indianapolis Colts have selected Texas quarterback Sam Ehlinger. He'll compete with Jacob Eason for the backup job and could benefit even more if the Carson Wentz era doesn't go like the Colts want it to. Last year, Ehlinger completed 60.3 percent of his passes for […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoBears Draft Running Back Khalil Herbert
With the 217th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Chicago Bears have selected Virginia Tech running back Khalil Herbert. Herbert is an appealing prospect who had 1,182 rushing yards last season. He hasn't done a lot of receiving during his time in college but he's a quick back who hits the hole and makes […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoBrowns Draft Demetric Felton
With the 211th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Cleveland Browns have drafted UCLA wide receiver Demetric Felton. The Pac 12 leader in all-purpose yards last year, Felton is a versatile option who can play anywhere on the field. He's got some nice acceleration that could allow him to make plays out of the […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoJaguars Take Jalen Camp
With the 209th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Jacksonville Jaguars have selected Georgia Tech wide receiver Jalen Camp. Camp never had more than 29 catches in a season at Georgia Tech and struggles as a route runner, but there's some appeal here because of his combination of size and speed. He could be […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoTitans Take LSU Receiver Racey McMath
With the 205th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Tennessee Titans have selected LSU wide receiver Racey McMath. McMath is the second Day 3 receiver for Tennessee following the drafting of Dez Fitzpatrick earlier in the day. McMath doesn't have much of a track record at LSU, but he was mired behind a lot […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoPanthers Take Shi Smith
With the 204th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Carolina Panthers have selected South Carolina wide receiver Shi Smith. Smith's a bit of a steal at this point, as he's a tough receiver who adds a physical element to the Panthers. He's coming off a 2020 campaign that saw him catch 57 passes for […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoBills Draft Marquez Stevenson
With the 203rd pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Buffalo Bills have selected Houston wide receiver Marquez Stevenson. Stevenson led the Cougars in receiving twice during his time in Houston, including 2018, when he caught 75 passes for 1,019 yards and nine touchdowns. Stevenson's big strength is his speed, which could pair nicely with […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoBengals Select Running Back Chris Evans
With the 202nd pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Cincinnati Bengals have selected Michigan running back Chris Evans. The former Wolverine had just 16 carries for 73 yards last season and last saw serious work back in 2018, so there's a lot of concern here in terms of what Evans can be at the […]
Justin Carter 4 years agoChargers Draft Larry Rountree III
With the 198th pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Los Angeles Chargers have selected Missouri running back Larry Rountree III. He joins a Chargers backfield headed by Austin Ekeler but that has some room for someone to do some early-down work for the team. He saw 209 carries last season to just 15 receptions, […]
