The 2017 draft just ended so why not have a quick look ahead to the 2018 Draft? Interesting article from CBS Sportsline. They have the top 5 players at each position for the 2018 draft. Yeah a lot can change before next year, but it’s a good read in during the off-season. Make sure you …

The SEC and ACC running 1 and 2 in number of NFL draft picks is a fairly common occurrence. The Pac 12 and Big 10 also had solid drafts, but the Big 12 with 14 picks? 14? That’s not a good look for a conference that’s in general football wise has been trending downward overall …

For years I’ve respected the work @MattZemek as a honest and thoughtful sports media member. He is currently Co-editor of @FanRag_U, and I highly recommend you check out that sports site https://www.fanragsports.com/.

Yesterday was a dark day for ESPN. They had a massive layoff of their journalistic talent base. Times are tough at the 4 letter network. In recent years they’ve lost over 10 Million subscribers.
