Cam Skattebo was the engine that powered the Arizona State Sun Devils’ offense to the College Football Playoff in 2024. When the lights were the brightest, Skattebo did not disappoint, putting up 242 scrimmage yards and two touchdowns in a thrilling overtime loss to Texas in the first round of the playoffs. However, the performance wasn’t a flash in the pan, as Skattebo had been lighting…...

At the beginning of Day 2 of the NFL Draft, TreVeyon Henderson landed in a New England backfield that was in need of a serious talent upgrade. Not only did the Patriots’ running backs underperform expectations last season, but there were also some serious ball security issues that needed to be addressed. While Henderson’s calling card is his big-play ability, he is not a one-trick…...

Matthew Golden was one of 2024’s biggest risers after transferring from Houston and becoming the WR1 for a Texas Longhorns team that made it to the College Football Playoff Semifinals. He then went on to generate even more buzz by setting the track on fire at the combine with a 4.29-second forty time. While his draft rise was impressive, there are still enough questions about…...

Following the acquisition of Stefon Diggs last offseason, the Texans’ wide receiver trio of Nico Collins, Tank Dell, and Diggs was primed to be the best in the league, at least on paper. The high hopes for the Texans’ passing game never materialized in 2024, as injuries, poor protection, and passing inefficiency all played a part in the letdown. Fast forward to a year later,…...

After arriving at Ohio State as an elite recruit, Emeka Egbuka was never able to put together a true breakout season despite staying in school for four years. However, because he played alongside multiple five-star prospects, his lack of top-end statistics could be partially explained away. Seeing Egbuka land with an NFL team where he would have a primary role on Day 1 could have…...

Despite an obvious need to add wide receivers to their offense to help ease the burden on CeeDee Lamb, Dallas did not add any pass catchers in the 2025 NFL Draft. A couple of weeks after the draft, the Cowboys rectified their shortcoming by trading a 2026 third-round pick plus a 2027 fifth-rounder to the Steelers for George Pickens and a 2027 sixth-round pick. ⚠️…...

Le’Veon Bell was not an elite prospect coming out of Michigan State but showed enough to be drafted by the Steelers in the middle of the second round of the 2013 NFL draft. His athletic testing was not overly impressive but still solid for a 230-pound back. Once in the NFL, Bell put together a strong rookie season before taking over the league in Year…...

Leading up to the NFL Draft, R.J. Harvey was receiving plenty of buzz despite being stuck in the middle of a deep running back class. Being selected on the second day of the draft was always a possibility, but Harvey fell into one of the best situations possible when he landed in Denver at the end of the second round. Things for Harvey got even…...

Robert Woods was drafted at the beginning of the second round in 2013 by Buffalo, but had to wait six years before seeing his first breakout season. Following his first 200-point PPR season in 2018, he put up two more in consecutive seasons. The 49ers selected Michael Crabtree with the 10th pick of the 2009 draft, but he did not break out until his fourth…...

Due to off-the-field issues, Tyreek Hill was not selected until the fifth round of the 2016 draft. If based solely on attributes, he would have easily come off of the board in one of the first two rounds. Hill’s talent was never in doubt, and he proved it by putting up more than 200 PPR points and finishing as the PPR WR18 during his rookie…...

Kyler Murray has received his fair share of criticism in recent years, but it was not that long ago when he was a fantasy darling after finishing as the QB4 in his explosive sophomore season. Largely on the back of an elite rushing workload, Murray took the league by storm in 2020. But it is not as if he came out of nowhere after being…...

Anyone who is paying attention to the 2025 NFL Draft is surely aware by now of how strong of an incoming rookie running back class we have this year. A talented RB can create opportunities anywhere, but things get a little easier in a landing spot featuring backfield vacancies from the year prior. If the RB holdovers from the previous season do not present much…...

Kenny Golladay came into the NFL in 2017 as a late third-round pick out of Northern Illinois. He was able to show flashes of his potential in his rookie season before coming on strong in his second and third seasons. Unfortunately, Golladay suffered hamstring and hip injuries that limited him to five games in 2020 and he was unable to regain his pre-injury form over…...

When looking for ideal landing spots for 2025’s rookie wide receiver class, finding teams with a lack of competition and an abundance of open opportunities is a good place to start. Many of the teams across the NFL can offer one or the other, but there are a select few that can offer prospects both. While some of the best destinations may be obvious, there…...
