They Took Who??? 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, […]

Chiefs Take Thakarius Keyes In Last Round

The Kansas City Chiefs selected Tulane cornerback Thakarius Keyes with the 237th overall pick in the seventh round. Keyes has the physical traits to be effective in press coverage at the line in the NFL, but his recovery speed is suspect and he could be exposed deep down the field by quicker and speedier pass-catchers. […]

Chiefs Select Edge Rusher Michael Danna

The Kansas City Chiefs have selected Michigan edge rusher Michael Danna with the 177th overall pick in the NFL draft. Danna was a powerful bull-rusher playing at Michigan, but he underwhelmed against stronger competition in one season in the Big Ten. He's 6-foot-2, 261 pounds with long limbs, so the tools are there to become […]

Chiefs Select Safety L'Jarius Sneed

The Kansas City Chiefs added depth to their secondary by selecting Louisiana Tech saftey L'Jarius Sneed with the 138th overall pick. Sneed has the ability to play corner as well, so that could help him find the field earlier in his career. He's a smaller safety but should add to a Kansas City secondary that […]

Instant Reaction: NFL Draft Round 1 Winners/Losers

The NFL's virtual draft started on Thursday, and while there were some differences -- the virtual boos, the huge number of Zoom screens we saw, the mouths not matching up exactly with all of the words -- it was mostly just a normal NFL draft, with teams making picks and trades and analysts breaking things […]

Is Clyde Edwards-Helaire the Next Brian Westbrook?

Hyperbole and the NFL Draft go hand in hand. Every GM, coach, and teammate of an incoming first-round pick is going to proclaim how much they love their new guy, how they had him pegged for their team all along, and inevitably throw out some comps for emphasis. Hours after the first round of the […]

Jordan Love's Future in Green Bay

Hours before the first round of the NFL Draft on Thursday, Aaron Rodgers told Pat McAfee on radio that the Packers have not taken a skill position player in 15 years. He said he would be happy with any skill player at this point. Well, he got his wish, sort of. Instead of taking a player […]

Chiefs Add To Their Offensive Line With Lucas Niang

The Kansas City Chiefs selected TCU offensive tackle Lucas Niang with the 96th overall pick in the NFL Draft on Friday night. Niang is a large man at 6-foot-6 and 315 pounds, and he will provide solid depth on the line with a chance to carve out a starting role. Despite his size, scouts have […]

Willie Gay Jr. Goes To Kansas City

The Kansas City Chiefs have selected Mississippi State linebacker Willie Gay Jr. with the No. 63 selection during the second round. This is a great pick for the Chiefs, who desperately needed to add to the linebacker position. Gay only played in five games for Mississippi State last season, but should be able to carve […]

Super Bowl Champs Add Clyde Edwards-Helaire To Backfield

The Kansas City Chiefs selected LSU running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire with the No. 32 overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft on Thursday. Edwards-Helaire had a school-record 55 catches for the Tigers in 2019 and is a luxury pick for the Chiefs in an already loaded Chiefs offense. He'll join a backfield that includes Damien […]

2020 NFL Mock Draft 2.0

With the NFL Draft just one week away, smokescreen season is upon us.

2020 NFL Draft - Top 100 Big Board and Undervalued Prospects To Watch

The beauty of the NFL Draft is that people can watch the same prospects and come to different conclusions.

Does Hand Size Really Matter For Quarterbacks?

So, Joe Burrow has small hands. Nine inches to be exact. It's been the talk of Twitter for a few days. Bud Light got involved in the jokes by asking Burrow to be the spokesman for their new tinier bottles. Pundits are convinced Burrow is going to be an NFL bust because of his hand […]

Gronk and Brady Reunited in Tampa Bay

Just two days before the 2020 NFL Draft was set to get underway, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers stole the headlines and made a splash by trading for former Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski.

Chiefs Rumored To Be Eyeing Henry Ruggs III

There's a wild rumor floating around that the Kansas City Chiefs want to trade up for Alabama's Henry Ruggs III if he falls into the 20s in the first round of this week's draft. It would be an embarrassment of riches for a Kansas City offense that just won the Super Bowl and is one […]
