Our Seattle Seahawks find themselves in an earned and fortuitous position in which their incumbents don’t mind signing for a little less if it means staying on the squad. Playoff teams always find value where they can, and Super Bowl champions do so to an extended degree. Special talent at an affordable rate abounds on the ‘Hawks roster. Where do you find the most value? Which players have exceeded both their contract and expectations? Who would you like to see a little more from, production-wise and in relation to their paycheck? Let us know in the comments below. Thanks for...
Field Gulls
The Chicago Bears made only one* significant change to their linebacking corps this season, but this group will look much different than the group that played in 2025.
Tremaine Edmunds, who was much better than fans want to give him credit for, was cut in a cap-saving move, and the Bears signed Devin Bush to take his place. Bush got a 3-year, $30 million deal, but his cap hit in 2026 will only be $5.6M. The Bears will slide Bush into the weakside linebacker spot, and his speed and athleticism should be an upgrade.

Every so often, we gather to discuss the latest news about the Dallas Cowboys and seek our writer’s perspective on each headline. Welcome back to the roundtable. This week we have Jess Haynie, Sean Martin, Brian Martin, and for his first Roundtable appearance we have Jorge Guajardo.
Mike: Jaishawn Barham is the rookie I’m most excited to watch because linebacker was one of Dallas’ biggest weaknesses last season and desperately needed an upgrade. Barham is has the size to handle traffic between the tackles, but also...

Training camp starts next week and the Dallas Cowboys have a issue that needs to be fixed or answered.
This offseason went just about as well as anyone could have hoped, but I feel like we haven’t asked this question enough, including myself. There have been nothing but positive thoughts about Christian Parker and the defense going into 2026.
I mean, how can it be any worse than the league’s worst a year ago? It can only go up from here, right?
Both on paper and on the staff, the defense is much improved from a year ago, and yes,...
There is now a better explanation as to why former Pittsburgh Steelers safety Ryan Clark was fired from ESPN.
Former Pittsburgh Steelers free safety Ryan Clark was surprisingly among several of those let go from ESPN this week, and NFL analyst Warren Sharp of Sharp Football Analysis believes he knows why.
Sharp revealed that Clark’s recent exchange with ESPN’s Peter Schrager on Get Up factored into his firing.
“That’s the non-player in you,” Clark said in reference to Schrager’s take on Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb.
“Don’t belittle me like that,” Schrager responded. “I can come and say as...

The Steelers probably don’t want to give up on a young third-round pick, but how many running backs can they keep? Well, depending on your definition of “keep”, Mike DeFabo believes they can manage four—at least. But it would require some maneuvering, and the window is a short one With Jaylen Warren and Rico Dowdle […]

The 2026 Jacksonville Jaguars enter the summer in a curious position as one of the AFC’s most intriguing rosters, combining postseason aspirations with multiple unsettled starting position groups. And while most of the offseason attention in Duval has been directed at the wide receiver room and the direction of the offense under Liam Coen, it’s the competition in the trenches and elsewhere that will likely determine the final playoff standings for the 2026 Jaguars.
Here is a breakdown of the five most impactful position battles heading into 2026 Training Camp.

When reports that the Buffalo Bills signed linebacker Terrel Bernard to a four-year, $50 million extension in March 2025, the reaction from portions of Bills Mafia was mixed. As real contract numbers slowly surfaced, the deal was a four-year, $42 million contract with some escalators and “not like to be earned” bonuses. Fast forward to the end of the 2025 season, and any of the positivity derived had seemingly vanished altogether.
Some questioned whether general manager Brandon Beane had moved too quickly. Bernard was coming off consecutive 100 tackle seasons and had established himself as the leader of Buffalo’s defense,...

Training camp.
Why is it called training camp? The reason is to get players back in shape: to “train” their bodies. So, they lived a full life away from the game and ate what they wanted. Back in the day, players and coaches had offseason jobs. When Vince Lombardi was the offensive coordinator with the New York Football Giants, he worked as an executive in a New York bank. He almost remained there.

In recent days, NFL players, including Pittsburgh Steelers LB Patrick Queen and DL Cam Heyward, have spoken out about upgrading playing surfaces to grass. For the recent FIFA World Cup, grass systems were installed even at stadiums that don’t use natural grass, and it’s something that NFL players want implemented due to the higher chance […]
