Pay Prescott His Money
It's not everyday that I talk about a superstar like I talk about this guy. Dak Prescott is coming off his best season yet for the Dallas Cowboys, and somehow the conversation is he should either get paid his money or the Cowboys should franchise tag him? I get it from a business standpoint withContinue reading "Pay Prescott His Money"
The Top Ten Teams That Should Trade For OBJ
With the rise of this wide receiver class in the 2020 combine one might argue to try to pick up one of these guys to put on their team.

2020 NFL Draft Positonal Rankings – Offense
Positional rankings...an arbitrary understanding of what talent is at its finest! I sat down and did my personal positional rankings for the offensive side of the ball. The biggest surprise names for myself were the placement of Thad Moss, adding in Dayton's Adam Trautman and the realization that there might not be any interior linemanContinue reading "2020 NFL Draft Positonal Rankings – Offense"
