James Harrison Continues To Work Out In Ways No One Else Should Try
Steelers linebacker James Harrison loves to work out and share videos of his workouts. Sometimes he’ll boast about his feats, but other times, the clips are presented without commentary or platitudes. They reinforce a blunt fact: James Harrison can attempt this, and you (almost certainly) cannot....
Why Should Any Top Draft Prospect Play A Meaningless Bowl Game Again?
Leonard Fournette and Christian McCaffrey made history last week. The Jaguars drafted Fournette fourth overall, while the Panthers took McCaffrey at No. 8. Both were outstanding prospects who were expected to be selected in the Top 10. What’s significant is that both had skipped their meaningless, n...
The Patriots Signed The Hollister Twins And An Ivy Leaguer Named Max Rich
The Patriots drafted only four players this weekend—although a few of their original draft picks did result in talent via trades—but like every other team, they sifted through the pool of leftover undrafted free agents. These signings might not make the 53-man roster, but they certainly have the loo...
Former NFL Lineman Pushes Back On Roger Goodell’s Dumb Weed Qualms
Roger Goodell spoke about weed on Mike & Mike on Friday, and surprise: He’s against its use. The NFL commissioner said he didn’t want marijuana usage to be “something that we’ll be held accountable for some years down the road.” According to Goodell, the NFL’s medical advisors “haven’t really said” ...
The Bears' Mitch Trubisky Pick Keeps Looking Worse And Worse
I made the mistake of going outside this weekend instead of turning off my lights, pulling my curtains, and binging on schadenfreude from the Bears’ shocking draft decision to give up two thirds and a fourth to move up one spot to grab QB Mitchell Trubisky, whom they could’ve had at No. 3 overall an...
Vikings' New Stadium Struggling With Leaky Walls, Loose Panels
Less than a year after it opened, the Vikings’ new stadium has leaky walls and loose panels with no clear plan for scheduling or funding repairs, according to reporting by the Minneapolis Star Tribune. ...
The Bills Have Cleaned House
A few hours after the completion of the NFL draft, Buffalo Bills owner Terry Pegula announced that the team would be clearing out their front office—firing general manager Doug Whaley, along with the entire scouting staff....
Browns Draft Caleb Brantley, Unsure If They Will Keep Him Due To Battery Charge
The Browns took Florida defensive tackle Caleb Brantley with the first pick of the sixth round, seemingly overlooking his recent misdemeanor battery charge for striking a woman outside a bar earlier this month. Almost immediately after drafting him, however, the team announced that they may have cha...

NFL Network Talent In Open Rebellion Against NFL
NFL Network draft coverage hosts have had it with the NFL turning this weekend into a circus, with Mike Mayock only half-jokingly threatening to walk off the set due to repeated orangutan coverage and Rich Eisen later vetoing the Oakland Raiders’ “pretty harsh” decision to make all their selections ...
Jaguars' GM On Dede Westbrook's Two Domestic Violence Arrests: "Many Of Us Have Been Accused Of Things"
The Jacksonville Jaguars drafted Oklahoma receiver Dede Westbrook in the fourth round today. The decision naturally prompted a few questions to the front office about their view of Westbrook’s two arrests on allegations of domestic violence. The response from general manager David Caldwell? Well, wh...
Cowboys Draft Pick Drowned Out By Boos
Roger Goodell’s appearances on the NFL Draft stage have been met with boos for years, but Phillyfans saved their most vicious jeers for Drew Pearson, who announced the Cowboys’ second-round selection—booing him so fervently that the name was all but unintelligible. ...
The NFL Turned The Draft Into A Festival, And It Actually Worked
It’s easy to hate on the NFL Draft. First off, it’s run by the National Football League. It’s also a draft, a weird process that limits the earning power and freedom of movement of young men. Also, while my friend may watch the draft every year, I think the actual action—name is called, player walks...
Roger Goodell Is Mewling About Weed Again
Roger Goodell—commissioner of a league that is okay with teams pumping players full of wildly addictive opiates, would prefer everyone just ignore football’s potential to irrevocably damage brains, and is generally unconcerned with the well-being of former players—wants everyone to know he’s against...
Why Did The Bears Give Up So Much For Mitch Trubisky?
Nobody was more surprised at the Chicago Bears’ decision to send four draft picks to the San Francisco 49ers for the right to move up one spot and draft Mitch Trubisky than Trubisky himself. That’s because, according to Trubisky, the Bears only worked him out once, and never communicated with him in...
We Have An NFL Draft Jersey Bingo Winner
Congratulations to commenter JrueD, who was the first to call a confirmed BINGO in our NFL Draft jersey-spotting competition thanks to eagle eyes (and without, incredibly, needing Eagle eyes) spotting the following jerseys for a diagonal win:...
Last Night's Winner Was This Packers Fan At A Bears Draft Party
Last night, Chicago traded up to take North Carolina quarterback Mitch Trubisky with the second overall pick, enraging Bears fans but absolutely delighting this Packers fan who turned up at the draft party to, presumably, mock his conference rivals....
The Raiders Placed A Bet On Gareon Conley
The Raiders took Ohio State CB Gareon Conley with the 24th pick of last night NFL Draft, much lower than he was expected to go a week ago, and much higher than many teams were willing to take him. Conley is the subject of a rape investigation in Cleveland, and it’s pretty exhausting that, yet again,...
Takkarist McKinley Dedicates Being Selected By The Falcons To Grandmother In Emotional, "Fine Me Later" Frenzy<em></em>
Takkarist McKinley was raised by his grandmother, and he promised just before she died that he’d make it to a Division I football team. Having achieved that—and then some—the UCLA defensive end brought a photo of his grandmother to the stage after his selection by the Falcons with the 26th pick; he ...
Bears Trade Up To Take Mitchell Trubisky With Second Pick
The Browns started tonight’s NFL draft by following through on rumors that they would take Texas A&M defensive end Myles Garrett first. Then things got weird....
