6 in the Top 12?!: How Reaching for QBs has Effected the NFL

       This year more than ever, the abnormally large ratio of quarterbacks picked compared to others was especially evident. Picks 1, 2, and 3. All QBs. Pick 8, for whatever reason, was a QB, and truthfully was the main reason this is being written. 2 more would come in the next 4 picks, with one of them being a projected day 2-3 pick. So, yes it makes sense that the most important position on the field would be picked more than others, but why reach so much for 1) someone you don't even need or 2) someone you could have gotten later in the draft?

What does the Tyler Boyd Signing Mean for Treylon Burks?

       On Tuesday, the Tennessee Titans signed former Bengals WR Tyler Boyd on a 1 year deal worth up to $4.5 Million. Tennessee continues to add to their WR room, as Boyd is the second notable signing -- the first being Calvin Ridley -- made by GM Ran Carthon and co. this offseason. While the signing is great for the overall team and will give them a brand new slot receiver with ties to new HC Brian Callahan (the Bengals former OC), it leaves the future of 2022 first round pick Treylon Burks in doubt.

The Falcons QB Confusion

       After years of trouble at the quarterback position following their Super Bowl loss, and even more so following Matt Ryan's departure, the Falcons signed former Vikings QB Kirk Cousins. Despite his season ending Achilles injury, he was still one of the most sought after QBs on the market in the offseason. Directly following their deal, it was viewed as an overpay for an aging Quarterback coming off of an injury and joining a new system. Still, the team made the signing and would have to live with that decision.

    Back in 2022, when the Jaguars and Lions held the top two picks in the draft, there were rumors floating around about 4 QBs who could possibly go in the first round. 1 of them did.

What Does the Russell Wilson Signing mean for Kenny Pickett?

     After a strong career at Pittsburgh, QB Kenny Pickett was drafted by the Pittsburgh Steelers in the first round of the 2022 NFL Draft. For the first few weeks in his rookie season, he sat on the bench and painfully watched Mitch Trubisky (who has since been released) lead the offense to a consistent 15 points.

Breaking Down the Eagles Late Season Struggles

     If you have watched the Eagles over the last 3-4 weeks of the NFL Regular Season, you would know that they have struggled mightily in nearly all facets of the game. To say the least, they have been dreadfully underperforming during this span, and have had the worst NFL 3rd-down defense at 48% (via Yahoo! Sports). Opposing offenses on average would convert on 3rd down just under 1 out of every 2 times. Even though they addressed their secondary need by acquiring Kevin Byard from the Titans, they have still been mediocre there if not bad. Before Week 18, the Philly allowed six 300-yard games from opposing quarterbacks (via SportsNaut). It is becoming increasingly clear that the Eagles have one of if not the worst defense in the playoffs.
