Rookie Roulette - Which QB Goes After Kyler Murray in Dynasty Drafts?

Asking the question "which first-year quarterback should go first in rookie drafts" is, basically, a bad question. You don't need to read a 1000 word piece from me about why to pick Kyler Murray over the other quarterbacks in this class. No way. Kyler should be the first quarterback off the board in 100 percent […]

Cam Newton Using New Throwing Motion

Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton (shoulder) has been using a new throwing motion so far during minicamp and offseason drills, as the team tries to cut down on the wear and tear on his surgically-repaired throwing shoulder.

Indianapolis Colts head coach Frank Reich said that quarterback Andrew Luck (calf) will not practice this week at minicamp.

Lamar Jackson Looking Better As A Passer

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson continues to make improvements with his accuracy during offseason workouts, according to quarterbacks coach James Urban.

The ball comes out cleaner, the timing looks better," Urban […]

Josh Allen Must Improve Decision-Making

Buffalo Bills general manager Brandon Beane believes that quarterback Josh Allen needs to improve his decision-making the most heading into his second season in the NFL.

Jared Goff's Extension Timetable Not Affected By Eagles

Los Angeles Rams chief operating officer Kevin Demoff said that the Eagles' four-year, $128 million contract extension with quarterback Carson Wentz won't affect the team's timetable for an extension with quarterback Jared Goff.

The Philadelphia Eagles agreed to a four-year contract extension with quarterback Carson Wentz on Thursday that will take him through the 2024 season. Although Wentz has suffered season-ending injuries each of the last two years, the Eagles know he's their long-term QB of the future and wanted to lock him down. Despite his injuries, Wentz […]

Nate Solder Unsure If He'll Be Ready For Training Camp

New York Giants left tackle Nate Solder (ankle) isn't 100 percent sure yet if he'll be ready to go when training camp starts this summer. Even if Solder isn't ready to go initially, he should be good to go for Week 1, barring any setbacks in camp. He'll be tasked with protecting the blind side […]

Lamar Jackson Making Strides As A Passer

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson has been making strides throwing the football with his mechanics at organized team activities. He has avoided making too many bad mistakes.

Indianapolis Colts head coach Frank Reich is optimistic that quarterback Andrew Luck (calf) will return for veteran minicamp next week, but the team won't be concerned if he doesn't.

Ryan Finley Struggling So Far

Cincinnati Bengals rookie quarterback Ryan Finley has looked bad so far in spring practices after the team took him in the fourth round this year. If he continues to underwhelm into training camp, he might be third on the quarterback depth chart behind Andy Dalton and Jeff Driskel.

Trent Williams Wants Trade Or Release

Washington Redskins left tackle Trent Williams said he doesn't have financial issues with the team at all, according to numerous sources with knowledge of the situation.

Case Keenum Sharper Than Dwayne Haskins In Practice

Washington Redskins quarterback Case Keenum was sharper than rookie Dwayne Haskins in minicamp practice on Tuesday. Haskins also had moments of success, but he was somewhat inconsistent throwing the ball in the face of constant pressure. He also made a questionable decision in a two-minute drill when he took off running with a few seconds […]

Tom Brady, N'Keal Harry Still Developing Chemistry

New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady and rookie wide receiver N'Keal Harry have a long way to go in terms of developing their chemistry. Brady and Harry failed to connect on several practices on Tuesday, and Harry had an up-and-down showing. Harry's timing with both Brady and backup Brian Hoyer wasn't perfect either. This is […]

Alex Smith Recovering Nicely

Washington Redskins head coach Jay Gruden said that quarterback Alex Smith (leg) is "recovering nicely" and thinks Smith will be back sooner than people expect. Gruden also said that Smith "can play catch." Smith suffered a gruesome broken leg in 2018 that might keep him off the field in a regular season game for the […]

Ryan Fitzpatrick Has Outplayed Josh Rosen

Miami Dolphins quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick has been better than Josh Rosen so far in offseason workouts. Fitzpatrick continues to take the first snaps with the first-team offense in team drills.

Trent Williams Wants A New Deal

Washington Redskins left tackle Trent Williams is skipping mandatory minicamp this week because he wants a new deal, according to a source.

Andrew Luck Still Dealing With Calf Injury

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Andrew Luck (calf) is out of organized team activities for a third straight week with a calf strain.

Eagles Expecting Big Things From Carson Wentz

The Philadelphia Eagles and head coach Doug Pederson are thrilled with the progress quarterback Carson Wentz has made this offseason and are expecting big things from him in 2019.
