The first day of the 2025 NFL Draft, held April 24 in Green Bay, Wisconsin, provided plenty of surprises to keep fans on the edge of their seats. Among them, the Jacksonville Jaguars‘ bold strategy to secure Colorado two-way talent Travis Hunter was the one that generated the most buzz around the league and on social media.

The Jaguars struck an ambitious deal with the Browns to move up from the fifth pick to the second overall in the draft, giving up several key picks in the process. They put all their faith in Hunter, the 2024 Heisman Trophy winner, whom they see as a key piece in redefining the team’s future.

The last-minute strategy caught everyone by surprise, as more than 24 hours after the move, everyone still has their doubts about the Khan family’s approach.

Another group of Brown fans were not happy with the decision, as they felt Hunter was the right player to lift the Cleveland franchise.

A former NFL player disagrees: Brown’s master class

Chase Daniel, former quarterback and current NFL analyst, disagrees with some critics of the move and believes it was a smart strategy on the part of the Browns.

“You’re not going to believe what I’m going to say. I love what the Browns did. Hunter plays two positions, but neither of them is a privileged position, like quarterback, where you’re the quarterback, where the defense is, and that’s what I was suggesting, that those are the most important positions in the NFL, they’re the toughest positions in the NFL”.

The Browns made a smart move by signing Mason Graham, the best tackle in the draft, and regaining their 2026 first-round pick. Although they gave up Travis Hunter, they are believed to be thinking long-term, stockpiling talent with an eye on next year’s promising quarterback class. The decision was surprising, but it seems well thought out, Daniel explained on “The Facility”.

The truth is that the debate continues and seems to be very divided, with some applauding Jacksonville‘s decision and others criticizing Cleveland. Without a doubt, they gave us a memorable moment in the NFL Draft.

Giants celebrate Brandon Crawford, walk off in the ninth

SAN FRANCISCO — On Saturday afternoon, Brandon Crawford stood behind a podium in front of the pitcher’s mound at Oracle Park and gave the longest speech of his life. It was the longest bit of public speaking he’d done since he was in school, by his own reckoning, and the speech made him “more nervous than Game 7 in Kansas City,” but he handled it with aplomb. A weekend day game with Bruce Bochy and the Rangers in town was already one of the easiest games on the calendar to circle, but the pregame ceremony made it even easier for the die-hards and Crawford fanatics. (Although we have questions for the gentleman in the powder-blue “CRAWFORD 35” Cardinals jersey in section 119. A lot of questions.)AdvertisementThe loudest cheers of the day weren’t for Crawford, though. They weren’t for the introductions […]

The 2025 NBA Playoffs are in full swing, as the field remains wide-open as we march through the first round series.

2025 Kentucky Derby post positions, morning line odds: Gate assignments for all 20 horses in the field

Getty Images The 151st running of the Kentucky Derby is set for next Saturday, May 3 at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Kentucky. On Saturday the 20 horses in the Derby field learned what post they would be running out of.The favorite, Journalism (3-1), drew the 8 post, while the only other horses with single-digit odds find themselves on the far outside of the starting gate. Sovereignty (5-1) drew the 18 post while Sandman (6-1) is alongside in the 17th position -- the only gate to never produce a Kentucky Derby winner. That means Sandman will have to look to make history next Saturday from that outside post. Last year's winner, Mystik Dan, won from the 3 gate, becoming the first horse to do so since 1998. The longest drought of any post aside from 17's 150-race winless streak belongs to the […]
