The 2025 NFL Draft kicked off Thursday, when the Tennessee Titans opened the first round of action by officially making Cam Ward their new franchise quarterback. And 31 others joined him in making the leap from college football to the NFL level, some of them literally taking the stage in Green Bay to mark the start of their pro careers. There was drama, to be sure, with Travis Hunter landing in Jacksonville instead of Cleveland, the Dallas Cowboys going back to the trenches and the New York Giants trading back into Day 1 for Jaxson Dart.
The best part, though? Thursday was just the start of the frenzy. Hundreds of additional picks remain, as all 32 teams look to shore up their rosters for the upcoming season. And plenty of big-name prospects also remain available — none bigger than Shedeur Sanders. The Colorado quarterback could be one of the first off the board on Day 2, along with Michigan’s Will Johnson, Marshall’s Mike Green and South Carolina’s Nick Emmanwori.
When does the next day of the 2025 NFL Draft begin? And what time will the picks start rolling in as the pool of top prospects gets whittled down?

ST. LOUIS — Pavel Buchnevich will talk with a reporter longer than most players, discussing the X’s and O’ with passion, not to mention a few curse words.That was the scene at his locker Wednesday at the St. Louis Blues’ practice facility.

It was a player wanting to be part of the solution.A little over 24 hours later, St. Louis not only got on the scoreboard and back in the series, but Buchnevich had his first-career NHL playoff hat trick. He scored the two fastest […]

Deadline acquisition Andrei Kuzmenko is the spark on Kings’ offense in first playoffs
EL SEGUNDO, Calif. — Shooting stars burn bright and often burn out but they’re a wonder to see. And when you look at Andrei Kuzmenko’s history since coming to the NHL, it is possible his marvelous play for the Los Angeles Kings since his arrival may dim and fade to black at some point.Time will tell, just as it did in his prior stops with the Vancouver Canucks and Calgary Flames. Five weeks with the Philadelphia Flyers wasn’t long enough to tell either way. But the Kings have managed to latch onto a comet blazing through their atmosphere for a wild ride that’s continued into the Stanley Cup playoffs.AdvertisementThe Kings have a 2-0 lead over the Edmonton Oilers and Kuzmenko has been a factor in each of his first two NHL playoff games.

Early matchup trends in Oilers-Kings series and how Edmonton can adjust
The Edmonton Oilers are down 2-0 in the team’s best-of-seven series against the Los Angeles Kings. The math people are flummoxed, and the eye test evaluators look toward Game 3 of the series with dread. It’s bad. Real bad. What can coach Kris Knoblauch do in order to win the pivotal next game, and the series? There may be some answers in the matchups.AdvertisementFactsThe Oilers are 7-7 goals at even strength, and the Kings are enjoying a five-on-five edge (7-5 goals). Special teams is a disaster, with Los Angeles scoring four goals with the man advantage and allowing zero goals on the penalty kill.There’s one piece of good news. When Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl are on the ice together at five-on-five, the Oilers are scoring 9.45 goals per 60. It has resulted in just a 3-2 edge over 19 […]
Texas, Texas A&M baseball soap opera is SEC’s underrated contribution to sports nirvana
An indelible moment from the night Tennessee won its first baseball national championship on June 24 in Omaha, Neb. — maybe the indelible moment, if you’re adding up the ensuing discourse — was when the coach of the team that just missed on its first baseball national championship addressed job rumors.Advertisement“I think it’s pretty selfish of you to ask that question, to be honest with you,” Texas A&M coach Jim Schlossnagle began his response, and at that second in that room, eyes widened, eyebrows and antennae raised, laptops rustled in laps and prepared to clatter at full speed.Few duties in this profession are embraced as enthusiastically as buzzing fastballs under the chins of coaches seeking stealthy situation upgrades, considering how many in that profession whine about athletes doing the same.“I took the job at Texas A&M to never take another […]
