What Do the Chiefs Need to Add on Defense in the NFL Draft? A breakdown of the Kansas City Chiefs current situation on defense and how they should address it through the 2021 NFL Draft. Author: Apr 21, 2021 Typically, in recent years, the main focus for Kansas City Chiefs fans during the offseason would be on the defense, as there have been several recent seasons in which the defense was the clear weak point of the team and it cost them in certain scenarios where they couldnt stop the opposing ...

NFL Draft 2021: Giants trade for a SECOND 1st-round pick to land impact players on both sides of the ball | Latest 7-round projection Updated 8:15 AM; Today 7:15 AM Georgia defensive end Azeez Ojulari is a candidate to be drafted by the New York Giants. AP Facebook Share But they’re also in a good spot with the 11th pick. The recent history at that spot — from J.J. Watt in 2011 to Mekhi Becton in 2020 — is promising, and it makes sense: Quarterbacks often hog the top 10, pushing non-qua...

By the numbers: 2020: Six tackles (2.0 for loss), one pass broken up in two games played. 2019: 22 tackles (3.0 for loss), six passes broken up and an interception in 12 games played.  Positives: Rachad Wildgoose Jr. is a cornerback who plays a physical brand of football. Hes aggressive at the line of scrimmage and uses his hands early and often to disrupt the timing and path of the opposing receiver. He is a willing contributor in run support and has the frame to be a factor in that regard. W...

Grading Positional Groups Pre-Draft QB: A++++ RB: B+ Clyde showed a lot of good things last year, and I expect him to take a huge leap this year in the passing game. The signings on the interior o-line should do him wonders. Darrell is a capable backup, and Darwin even showed some flashes in week 17 (even if he hasnt really put it all together yet). TE/FB: A We may have the best tight end in the history of the league, so theres that. Also, im happy to see the Belldozer back, hes everything you ...

A position-by-position look at the Chiefs roster for clues about what type of players they could be looking at this year in the NFL draft.

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- The need is glaring. The New York Giants have to address the edge rusher position in the worst way. At this moment they dont have a player slated to play outsider linebacker who had more than 3.5 sacks last season. And that player, Ifeadi Odenigbo, didnt even play outside linebacker last season with the Minnesota Vikings. The other notables include Lorenzo Carter and Oshane Ximines, both coming off major injuries, and Ryan Anderson, who was a backup and didnt record a s...

Giants news, 4/15: Draft do-over, wide receivers, more headlines New York Giants news for Thursday Good morning, New York Giants: CB Deandre Baker, No. 30 Overall 2019 The New York Giants gave up fourth- and fifth-round selections in 2019 to jump up seven spots and select Deandre Baker No. 30. He hardly justified that deal with his play as a rookie—starting 15 of 16 games while recording 61 tackles, eight passes defensed and no interceptions. After Baker was arrested and charged with four c...

When the 2020 Cardinals, after a brisk 2-0 start, went into a two game tailspin losing to the Lions at home and the Panthers on the road, GM Steve Keim said on Doug and Wolf: "Our stars need to...

Apr 13, 2021 Every year, colleagues Jenny Vrentas, Albert Breer and I battle it out for mock draft supremacy. Every year, I end up going first, which is all right with me. (Technically, Albert got a head start this year with his early iteration, but he’ll have another one the week of the draft.) First is sometimes preferred, as waiting too long gets you sucked into the misinformation spiral. Last is difficult because the consensus begins to come back around, though probably not in enough time...
