Each year college football keeps separating further and further from the NFL, in terms of their use of a traditional tight end.

The New Iron Fist? In the 2016 NFL Draft rookie class, the defensive line/pass rusher corps is full of possibilities.

The 2016 NFL Drafts class of defensive linemen is certainly one for the ages, stocked full of some amazing talents. Perhaps one of the lesser known defenders is former Gator Jonathan Bullard.

While the 2016 NFL Combine raised the profiles of some potential dynasty fantasy players, it also caused many to question former Razorback running back Alex Collins’ positioning in this year’s rookie class.

This former Louisiana Tech back has the NFL Draft and fantasy worlds scrambling for more info. Perhaps interest was originally piqued by the hotly contested NCAA all-time rushing touchdown leader race between Dixon and Navy quarterback Keenan Reynolds?

Defensive Back Delight. In the 2016 NFL Draft, there are four outstanding athletes firmly at the top. Today, I would like to discuss one of those players namely, the best defensive back found in the draft, former Seminole Jalen Ramsey.

Since the NFL Draft will be here in only a few more days, now is a great type to delve into some of the less talked about running backs. In my opinion, UCLA’s Paul Perkins has the athleticism to win on Saturdays, but will that translate on Sundays? I watched his 2015 games against Nebraska, […]

Big Program Player, but Little Production. Each year the NFL Draft has positions that are well stocked with athletic marvels, while other positions struggle to find relevant players.

Is he the Mountain or the Hound? Sorry, have to throw a little Game of Thrones into my 2016 NFL Draft preparation.
