It’s Friday, which means it’s time for our Victory of the Week (VOTW) post! This evening’s conversation prompt is straightforward: What was your victory this week? Did something remarkable happen? Is there a small achievement worth celebrating? This could relate to the Miami Dolphins, your professional life, or your personal life. We all experience victories, […]
We’re caught in between the Super Bowl and the start of free agency, so it’s a relatively quiet time on the NFL calendar. Well, it’s the perfect time to share some more stories about our New England Patriots fandom. Today, we want to know: Have you ever met a Patriots player or coach in real […]
On Friday night, the safeties wrapped up the on-field drills for the defensive side of the ball. This group was highly impressive across multiple phases of the Combine, with the fastest straight-line speed in history for the group, and their on-field drill performances were equally up to task. When we previewed these defensive backs ahead […]
We’re in that slow period between the Super Bowl and the new league year where it sometimes feels like the NFL world has ground to a halt. And that makes it a perfect time to ask: Where in the world are our Blogging the Boys readers? We don’t want or need your address or any […]
The trio of former Arizona defensive backs Treydan Stukes, Dalton Johnson, and Genesis Smith took part in the 2026 NFL combine on-field workouts Friday afternoon. All players were listed as safeties and ran the drills alongside each other. Before any sessions of the combine started, the NFL Next Gen Stat grades came in for the […]

Shoutout to the Mods who do a fantastic job, Valyrian Steel, Ezek XI, KungFuZizou, NeRObutBlanco, Felipejack, and Juninho UCL TIE YAWWNNN!! We got Citeh!….again. […]
I warned earlier this month that Tutu Atwell could easily be better for his next team than he was with the Los Angeles Rams: One of the most disappointing outcomes of the 2025 season for the Los Angeles Rams was Tutu Atwell’s disappearing act. Atwell signed a one-year, $10M deal last offseason to return to […]
PFF put together an “ideal haul” for the first three rounds of the 2026 NFL Draft for every team. They picked four players for the Jets who have two picks apiece in the first and second rounds and none in the third round. New York Jets: LB Arvell Reese, WR Carnell Tate, QB Ty Simpson, […]
Happy Friday evening one and all. The Arizona Cardinals and the rest of the NFL have descended on Indianapolis, IN for the 2026 NFL Combine and the rumors are flying. Good friend and former RotBer Johnny Venerable dropped some interesting nuggets on what he is hearing about the Cardinals situation at the NFL Combine. We […]
Through two days of NFL Combine workouts, one thing seems pretty clear: the best defensive position players in the 2026 NFL Draft class aren’t up front. They’re at linebacker and safety. A day after the linebackers set Lucas Oil Stadium on fire, the safeties did the same, putting on a clinic for the 32 teams […]
The San Francisco Giants have had an offseason full of puzzling decisions, but none so baffling as this one: Glen Kuiper is returning to the booth to do radio broadcasts. The lesser of the three broadcasting Kuiper brothers (13 years younger than Duane, five years younger than producer Jeff), Glen Kuiper was the primary play-by-play […]
The Dallas Cowboys officially placed the franchise tag on wide receiver George Pickens on Friday. This news was expected so it officially happening was more of a formality than anything. One could argue that it was expected as soon as Dallas traded for Pickens last May, but it became particularly obvious once he was having […]
The cornerbacks kicked off the second of on-field drills at the 2026 Combine, and we saw some solid performances from prospects projected to be selected at various points in the NFL Draft. As we explore the prospects who “won” the day, we saw a few players that we previewed ahead of the Combine, and a […]
Ryan Poles and Ben Johnson’s 2026 roster is a very fluid situation. The Bears are still over the 2026 salary cap, and while it won’t be too difficult for them to get under the cap for next year, exactly how far under they determine will affect exactly how they can approach this offseason and how […]
Barcelona defender Gerard Martin has been dubbed ‘Gerard Maldini’ this season in a fun nickname courtesy of his performances for the club. The left-back has now revealed that he’s received an epic gift from the Italy and AC Milan legend in a post on social media. Martin showed off a special signed Maldini shirt with […]
All good things must eventually end, and that includes the Dodgers winning streak to open the spring as the San Francisco Giants took Friday’s contest 12-4. Yoshinobu Yamamoto made his final spring tune-up before playing for Team Japan in the World Baseball Classic. Yamamoto gave up a pair of runs, including a leadoff home run […]
Update: The NFL officially set the 2026-27 salary cap at $301.2 million, up $22 million from last season. Over the Cap currently projects Commanders available cap at $71.284m, the 5th-most in the NFL. ORIGINAL ARTICLE: The NFL sets their salary cap every year after the season and before the new league year. From 2012 to […]
Greetings, Panthers fans. Welcome to the weekend. Feel free to use this thread to chat about (almost) anything you want: video games, food, movies, non-football sports, you name it. As long as it’s allowed by the site’s ToS, it’s fair game here. You know the drill. This is now an open thread
Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the NFL. Each week, we send out questions to the most plugged-in Kansas City Chiefs fans. You can see all of the recent survey results here. And be sure to check out FanDuel Sportsbook, the official sportsbook partner of SB Nation. Chiefs fans want an established back […]
Before we start, a disclaimer that I put out there every year around this time: The majority of what you will hear between now and the NFL Draft is either a lie or information that a team wants out there for one reason or another. Teams are working every angle they can to help themselves […]
The keyword for the cornerback position this offseason is “trust.” Do the Cowboys trust new defensive coordinator Christian Parker, given his background and reputation for developing secondary talent, to yield a capable group out of existing talent? Do they trust the current roster enough to not make big additions in free agency or the draft? […]
Indianapolis, IN — NFL Scouting Combine festivities kicked off earlier this week with media availability, with yesterday marking the first of four days of on-the-field workouts. The initial wave in question was comprised of front seven defenders — the defensive line and linebacker rooms — coincidentally, the same position grouping that Indianapolis Colts general manager […]
The Seattle Seahawks have not one, but two outstanding first-round picks from their 2023 draft class with looming contract extension talks coming. Devon Witherspoon has been a dynamite cornerback in both Pete Carroll and Mike Macdonald’s defenses, while wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba has consecutive 100-catch seasons to his name, along with an Offensive Player of […]
On Friday, the NFL sent out a memo notifying teams that the 2026 NFL salary cap has been set at $301.2 million, a $22 million raise from last year—and just in line with previous estimates. With the setting of the salary cap, other important figures have now been solidified, including franchise tag numbers for each […]
It is widely observed that Chris Ballard tends to draft players with a well above RAS (Relative Athletic Score). He is often given grief about this choice, fair or unfair. I have little doubt that the score is a factor in his draft process, but I would venture to guess that it is not at […]
