I already talked about my top ten prospects for each position on offense and defense, so I decided to take a look at some players who might not be on everybody’s radar, but whom we should really keep an eye on. Of the twelve names mentioned you probably won’t hear any called before the third day of the Draft, but they could become impact players at some point.
Top 10 players by position in the NFL Draft – Defense:
Finally, after watching lots and lots of tape to analyze the players, I finished my list of the top ten guys for each position with the defensive prospects. Once again, this is not just a ranking of how good these players are right now, but who they can become. Here is my list of the top ten offensive guys.
Let’s get right into it:
Top 10 players by position in the NFL Draft – Offense:
Now that players should their athletic abilities at the Scouting Combine and with pro days already running I decided to list my top ten prospects in the draft for each position. This is based on who I think these players can become and not just the top guys right now from one to ten. Each of them can still boost their draft stock with good individual workouts. Today I’m taking a look at the offensive players. Here they are:
Who helped himself the most at the NFL Scouting Combine:
With the Senior Bowl and all other games in the books scouts made their way to Indianapolis to see the athleticism of all the prospects. A couple of standouts left impressions on visitors while others failed to impress. Here are my top 10 players to improve their draft stock during the weekend plus a summary of the Combine (This isn’t any particular ranking):
Biggest offseason priorities for each NFL team: AFC edition
In addition to my piece on the NFC here is my segment on all 16 AFC teams. Once again this is what I think teams should do to improve from where they were last year with a couple of names being real possibilities to bring in via the draft or free agency. They might not be available and they aren’t just the best guys out there, but rather what would make sense to me. And it’s about what should be on top of their list for this offseason.
Here it is:
Biggest offseason priorities for each NFL team: NFC edition
In this segment I want to take a look at each team individually and what I think will be most important things they’ll need to do to improve their team. Some already have the pieces in place and should only make sure they keep them and add depth to their roster, while others have needs at specific positions they should fill. For each position of need I listed the players who I think would help them the most and who are real possibilities, teams could add via the draft or free agency. So those aren’t simply the best guys available. And some of the free agents may not be available since they agree on contracts with the team they’re already on.
Here are all 16 NFC teams:
Why Le’Veon Bell is the best running back in the NFL right now:
Le’Veon Bell racked up 2215 yards from scrimmage this year which ranks him second among all players only behind DeMarco Murray from the Cowboys. He also was a big reason the Steelers won their division this year for the first time since 2010. To me he is the best overall-running back in the league at this point. The following should tell you why he’s so good.
Who should take home the NFL Honors awards?
With the NFL Honors awards being announced tonight at 9pm ET on NBC, I decided who I think earned each individual trophy. I listed the top three candidates for each award and explained why they should win it. Here it is:
What do both teams have to do to win the Super Bowl and who will hoist the Lombardi Trophy?
Sunday’s Super Bowl matchup between the Patriots and Seahawks features a lot of different storylines and two great teams. Here’s what I think both teams need to do earn another ring and how I think the game will end: Continue reading
Who improved their draft stock the most at Senior Bowl week?
After Anthony Chickillo was named the East-West Shrine game defensive MVP last week and impressed scouts that way, I thought I’d take a closer look at who improved their draft stock the most during Senior Bowl week. A lot of young players showed NFL coaches and general managers what they can do. I’m not just taking the actual game into account but also what the players did at practice. Here are the guys who I thought really helped themselves this week:
