The first few days of the NHL playoffs have been outstanding, which will only provide Gary Bettman another bullet for his “best first round in sports” talking point he uses when people complain about the current division-focused playoff structure.

Washington’s defensive front has undergone a steady evolution over the past few seasons, and few players better represent that transition than edge rusher Zach Durfee.

Anyways, the […]

The Las Vegas Raiders added linebackers this off-season with Nakobe Dean, Quay Walker, and Segun Olubi but they still need to add depth to the position, and a swing on a late round flyer isn’t a bad idea. I broke down their options from rounds 2-4, and the class is very deep across the board […]
