NFL Draft 2025: Quarterback investments, the sliding scale of morality and more lessons learned

Getty Images Every year, there is analysis stemming from the selections made over the three-day NFL Draft event. Within those selections are often bigger lessons to be learned. Below are examples of those from the 2025 version:Teams are looking at quarterbacks as future trade piecesValue is a term often applied to the NFL Draft but teams are finding a new way to attain it. When the Browns selected Oregon quarterback Dillon Gabriel in the third round, it was not their plan to take another, Colorado's Shedeur Sanders, in the fifth round. As Saturday developed, the organization packaged its last two picks in order to trade up, in front of the Eagles, to draft Sanders. A year ago, Cleveland carried Deshaun Watson, Dorian Thompson-Robinson, Tyler Huntley and Jameis Winston into the preseason. The idea was to turn a low-cost signing, Huntley, into […]

Who did the Dallas Cowboys draft? Full list of 2025 picks, grades led by OL Tyler Booker, two Day 2 steals

Getty Images FRISCO, Texas --  The Dallas Cowboys' 2025 offseason involved much more activity than the 2024 offseason but it's unclear how much better those moves made them. Following an injury-plagued 7-10 campaign, they moved on from Mike McCarthy and promoted offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer to be their next head coach. Then, they let edge rushers DeMarcus Lawrence and Chauncey Golston, cornerback Jourdan Lewis, wide receiver Brandin Cooks, running back Rico Dowdle and backup quarterback Cooper Rush walk in free agency. Dallas' biggest splash in free agency involved signing edge rusher Dante Fowler Jr., who returns to the Cowboys (where he suited up in 2023), after erupting for a team-high 10.5 sacks for the NFC finalist Washington Commanders in 2024. Other free agency signings included running backs Javonte Williams and Miles Sanders on one-year deals, trades for former first-round picks in linebacker Kenneth Murray […]

Fantasy Football 2025: Matthew Golden player profile 

Matthew Golden shined during the playoffs: There is likely no player whose draft stock rose thanks to the expanded College Football Playoffs than Golden. An opportunity with the Green Bay Packers: The Packers lack an actual number one wide receiver, which could allow Golden to step into that role.

New face, new place, big wins: Here were the best Year 1 coaches in college basketball for the 2024-25 season

Imagn Images A year ago, college basketball had its busiest cycle of coaching turnover ever. There were 68 job changes, a record high over the sport's 100-plus year history.Inevitably, there were going to be some big hits and big misses right off the bat. The ones that hit really did make a mark. So today, I'm taking one more look back at the 2024-25 season and handing out some quick dap for the coaches who were able to take a new job and earn some instant credibility. Which schools made a coaching switch and found success without having to wait until Year 2 or Year 3? I've got an even dozen detailed below.At the high-major level, the bar to clear is obvious and non-negotiable: Did you make the NCAA Tournament? If the answer is yes, you are listed here today.
