The San Francisco 49ers are looking to add a wide receiver. The 49ers are also in a position where most of the top wideouts might be off the board by the time they’re on the clock. There are plenty of plausible scenarios in which the Niners find themselves on the clock and don’t like any […]

Here’s a hypothetical. What if the Jacksonville Jaguars never drafted Travis Hunter at second overall in the 2025 NFL Draft — because they never got the opportunity to? Let’s say, hypothetically, that the two-way phenom decided to take a gap year after winning the 2024 Heisman Trophy and before entering the league. Let’s also assume […]
