Tim Tebow Could Be Used In Taysom Hill Role
Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Tim Tebow could be used as more than a traditional tight end, similar to how the New Orleans Saints previously used Taysom Hill.

UDFA Running Backs To Watch In Dynasty

Jacksonville Jaguars rookie running back Travis Etienne took repetitions from the wide receiver position during the team's three-day rookie minicamp over the weekend.

Dynasty Value of the 2021 Rookie Quarterbacks
Not in recent memory have we seen a team bluff and fake-out the media and general public like the San Francisco 49ers just did when they convinced most that they prized the plus-sized Winklevoss cousin known as Mac Jones at pick #3. They didn't take Jones, though, and they blew up many mock drafts in […]
