Micah Parsons, Tyreek Hill, DK Metcalf among NFL stars who SHOULD be traded this offseason – NFL.com
Micah Parsons is one of just seven players to top 50 sacks in his first four NFL seasons. Could the Cowboys really be moving on from the 2021 Defensive Rookie of the Year this early in his career? There are actually ample reasons to think an extension is forthcoming heading into the final year of his rookie contract. Then again, NFL Network Insiders Tom Pelissero and Ian Rapoport recently reported that the team has internally discussed âwhether to pay Parsons or trade him for a kingâs ransom.â And mulling over the trade proposals being thrown around for Myles Garrett, I canât help but wonder what Parsons might fetch. Itâs probably a lot. Even before we know what Garrett would actually go for, we can look back at the haul the Raiders extracted from the Bears for Khalil Mack in 2018 as the baseline of a deal for Parsons, with multiple first-rounders and maybe a few players mixed in as well. A swap like that would surely go a long way toward boosting the roster around Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb, to whom the team has committed a healthy amount of money.

Eagles Film Review: Zack Baun is the teamâs most important defensive player – BGN
You can call me crazy, but I think Baun is worthy of a top-three type of contract. I would be OK giving him more than Matt Milano. Iâve seen some mention $13 million yearly, but I would be stunned if he doesnât get more on the open market. Anyone who runs a similar defense style to Fangioâs will be all over this guy. I would do what it takes to keep him in Philly. The Eagles have historically ignored the linebacker position in order to prioritize other positions. Now is the time to buck the trend. Itâs time to pay Zack Baun.
Bumps in the Road – Iggles Blitz
After watching the Eagles blow out the Chiefs in the Super Bowl it is pretty easy to think about what a great season 2024 was. It feels like everything went the Eagles way. You know opposing fans certainly feel like that. âLucky Eagles had it so easy last year.â That wasnât exactly the case. The Eagles did have to overcome some adversity along the way to their second SB title. Go back almost a year. The Eagles signed Devin White to be the veteran off-ball LB. The plan was for Tyler Steen to be the RG. DeVante Parker was going to be the #3 receiver. There were questions about whether Josh Sweat would be cut or traded. Star pass rusher Haason Reddick pushed for a raise and had to be traded. Bryce Huff was signed to be his replacement. The Eagles made depth signings like DB Tyler Hall, OL Matt Hennessy and DL PJ Mustipher. They lost quality depth in free agency, with Sua Opeta, Jack Driscoll and Jack Stoll all signing elsewhere. Avonte Maddox was released.
A.J. Brown: Promoting Kevin Patullo to OC was a âgreat hireâ – NBCSP
The Eagles will have a new offensive coordinator in 2025 but it wonât be a completely new face. And thatâs a good thing, according to A.J. Brown. The star receiver was on NFL Networkâs The Insiders and gave his stamp of approval to the Eaglesâ decision to promote Kevin Patullo to offensive coordinator. âI truly feel like itâs a great hire,â Brown said. âHe already has been involved in everything. Him, Kellen and Nick basically called the plays already. Itâs a great hire. Heâs already familiar with us. We have a great relationship. âAnd he knows what we need to work on because heâs been there and heâs been there for a while. And, like I said, heâs already been a part of all the situations and the conversations and everything. So I think itâs a great hire.â
Jordan Mailata tackles a new task â helping a coffee shop move a massive oven – NBC10
It turns out Jordan Mailata is a man of many talents. The offensive tackle was not only great at helping the Philadelphia Eagles secure a Super Bowl victory, but he is also great at moving stuff. Michelle Miller, the owner of The Ground Coffee, Plants and Gifts, couldnât get her oven â which weighs about 650 pounds â to budge, so she asked her friend Mailata for some help.
Jason Kelce: Tush push sucks for the center, but is a difference-maker for the Eagles – PFT
Kelce noted on The Steam Room that when youâre playing center on that play, you can end up with four 300-pound players on top of you. âFor me, as a center, it sucks,â Kelce said. âItâs a grueling play where youâre going to get as low as possible . . . if I get grass on my facemask I probably did the play pretty good, because I got as low as possible and drove forward. If you get low and drive forward, itâs really hard for the defense to stop it.â But Kelce also said that he thinks the Eaglesâ ability to pick up a yard in situations when other teams would punt is a massive advantage.
Former NFL RB Portis joins Jacksonâs staff at Delaware State – ESPN

The Hornets announced Portisâ hiring on social media Thursday. Portis joins Jackson, Norfolk State coach Michael Vick and Tennessee State coach Eddie George as former NFL stars to take jobs at historically Black universities. Deion Sanders coached at Jackson State before heading to Colorado.
BREAKING: Saints hire Brandon Staley to be their next Defensive Coordinator – Canal Street Chronicles
With New Orleans Saints head coach Kellen Moore focusing on the offense, the defensive coordinator is a massive hire. Making life as a head coach as easy as possible is essential for a first-time head coach, and not having to worry about the opposite side of the ball can be a great way to do that. Since Mooreâs hire, Brandon Staley has been the favorite for the job due to their past connection, similar to Doug Nussmeier on offense. The team also interviewed Philadelphia Eagles defensive backs coach/passing game coordinator Christian Parker and Minnesota Vikings defensive backs coach/passing game coordinator Daronte Jones, but, per Ian Rapoport, Brandon Staley is now the next defensive coordinator of the Saints.

New York Giants free agency primer: 5 quarterbacks to consider – Big Blue View
Aaron Rodgers, Jets. This isnât contentious at all! Rodgers is a 41-year-old future Hall of Famer with a reputation that vexes some people. Heâs one year removed from his torn Achilles suffered four snaps into the 2023 season against the Buffalo Bills. Rodgers is coming off his first actual season playing for the Jets, and he threw for 3,897 yards with 28 touchdowns and 11 interceptions. Rodgers averaged 6.7 yards per target with a 63% completion rate and a Big Time Throw Rate of 4.2% with a low 1.8% turnover-worthy play rate. His average depth of target was 7.3 yards. He ranked in the bottom 12 in the pressure-to-sack ratio and appeared much slower than usual, which comes with age and recovery from a serious lower-leg injury. Rodgersâ age is an issue; he may only have one year left. However, his arm talent still popped on screen, as did his ability to protect the football. He is not reluctant to let the football rip deep out of his hand and does an excellent job processing risk. Heâs an anticipatory thrower with terrific velocity.
Sportsâ unbreakable records, from Jerry Rice to Don Bradman – SB Nation
The 2024 NHL season is underway, and one of the major storylines on the ice this season concerns one playerâs pursuit of a record previously thought unreachable. Washington Capitals star Alex Ovechkin began the year 40 goals shy of Wayne Gretzkyâs all-time mark of 894 career NHL goals. But with Ovechkin off to a hot start this season the Capitals star is now just 15 goals shy of Gretzky, with 879 career goals. Goal #16 would put Ovechkin atop the leaderboard. That pursuit got us thinking here at SB Nation. What are the remaining unreachable goals in sports? Here is our list.
