Hayden Hurst to the Falcons!

Obviously, Austin Hooper will not be back in 2020. The Falcons needed help at tight end, so they went out and got the second best tight end in Baltimore, Hayden Hurst.

The NFL's New CBA: What It Means and Player Reactions

NFL players have approved the new collective bargaining agreement presented by the league.

Tee Higgins: 2020 NFL Draft Scouting Report

Tee Higgins, WR, Clemson #5

Height: 6’4”

Weight: 215 LBs

Year: Junior

Tee Higgins is someone that I have critiqued in the past, but I have yet to do a full, sit-down tape session on him. What I hope to accomplish by doing this is to block out everyone else’s opinions on him and establish my own opinion without the pre-judgments.

Gio's 2020 NFL Draft Big Board 1.0

I’ve slacked when it comes to making a big board this year, but I found the time to rank my top 100 players in this draft. Ignore things such as running backs having no positional value when it comes to the rankings.

Gio’s 2020 NFL Mock Draft 3.0 (Round One)

It’s been too long since I’ve done a mock draft! With the combine approaching, it is most certainly mock draft season. I’m back with a three-round draft this time. This is just the first-round. Rounds two and three will be out later this week either Friday or Saturday. I tried to keep the trades at a minimum for this go around because my post-combine draft will be a bit more crazy. Let’s get into it.
