Andersen Pickard predicts the 2019 season for the Top 5 rookie quarterbacks.
Dear David Gettleman,
When I heard the New York Giants had brought back a familiar face back in late 2017, I was thrilled, ecstatic, and in awe of the move. I thought for sure that you would fix the Giants and shape them back into the form they were during the 2016 season and better. You were given the second pick in a draft LOADED with talent at quarterback, and a need at the position. You had a good, young, core with Odell Beckham Jr., Sterling Shepard, Evan Engram, and Landon Collins along with a talented veteran presence with Janoris Jenkins, Jason Pierre-Paul, Damon Harrison, and Olivier Vernon. Now, just a year-and-a-half later, only three of those eight guys are still on the roster AND THEY AREN’T EVEN THE THREE BEST.
May 3rd was the deadline to pick up the fifth-year options for the 2016 first round picks. Now that it has passed and with three seasons to see how the draft class has played, it’s fair to look back and do a re-draft! For the purposes of this re-draft, I’m going to keep all trades in place. As a reminder, there were only 31 first-round picks because as the New England Patriots forfeited theirs as a result of the Deflategate investigation.

Ryan Potts explores what a draft lottery would mean for the NFL, the players, and the fans.
The Chiefs signed many undrafted free agents after the draft, but which of them have the potential to make the roster this season?
Jaylen Smith’s deal with the Ravens allowed him to reunite with his former quarterback from Louisville for a chance at a roster spot, writes Stacie Rigby. Could this bring back the old spark?
After just five seasons in the league, journeyman quarterback EJ Manuel has decided to retire, writes Andersen Pickard.
The Los Angeles Rams went through the 2019 NFL draft addressing the team’s need of depth. Particularly, at the running back position with Darrell Henderson. The Rams took Henderson with pick No. 70 in the third round to prolong their peak.
On Wednesday, the NFL announced the full list of unrestricted free agents who will not impact the compensatory draft system, writes Andersen Pickard.
The Pittsburgh Steelers had themselves a fairly significant draft. They moved up in the top 10 for the first time since they drafted Plaxico Burress eighth overall in the 2000 draft. They got their man Devin Bush, a stud middle linebacker out of Michigan, but enough about the big splash. Let’s talk about what I found to be the most significant pickup in the draft.
