• 7-Round NFL Mock Draft: How the Saints can contend… with a new quarterback

Vasha Hunt-Imagn Images Derek Carr’s injury creates a lot of questions around the quarterback position that could be answered in the second round of the NFL Draft.

Theo Johnson | Photo by Perry Knotts/Getty Images The Giants drafted Theo Johnson a year ago, but could they look to add from this draft class?

Bob Self/USA TODAY NETWORK / USA TODAY NETWORK The draft is really the Browns’ best hope of righting the ship. “We took a big swing and miss with Deshaun. We thought we had the quarterback, we didn’t, and we gave up a lot of draft picks to get him. So we’ve got to dig ourselves out of that hole. [The trade] was an entire organization decision… so hold us accountable.” Congratulations to ...2025

• NFL free agency’s 6 biggest bargains in 2025 on offense

Photo by Sam Hodde/Getty Images Here are the savviest free agency moves so far on offense. Super Bowl winners aren’t based entirely on superstars; they’re created by filling all the holes on their rosters intelligently and with the right money allotted to the right talent. As much as the 2024 Philadelphia Eagles had it going on with Jalen Hurts, A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith, the best offens...2025

2025
"com/IGw3ZsjmQi— Doug Farrar ✍ (@NFL_DougFarrar) March 10, 2025 It took the Bears exactly one day to drop the next hammer; that happened when they sent a 2026 fourth-round pick to the Kansas City Chiefs for Joe Thuney, one of the best guards of his era, and a guy who had to fill in at left tackle down the stretch for the AFC champions when their left tackle situation fell apart."

2024
"com/BKy1lXFZJ4— Doug Farrar ✍ (@NFL_DougFarrar) March 8, 2024 It’s unclear if the Lions are interested in signing Diggs or if Diggs is interested in signing with Detroit."

2023
"Defense tackle Jalen Carter, DT, Georgia Number 6: John Vogel (NFL Draft Blitz), Joe Broback (Pro Football Network) Bryan Bresee, DT, Clemson Number 18: JP Acosta (SB Nation), Doug Farrar (Touchdown Wire), Josh Edwards (CBS Sports), Ian Cummings (Pro Football Network) Calijah Kancey, DL, Pittsburgh Number 18: Kyle Yates (Football guys) Erik’s Thoughts: Bresee is still getting connected to the Lions on a regular basis, but now it’s exclusively at Number 18 as his stock is sliding."

2021
"But he told Doug Farrar of USA Today [more]"

2020
"“I love coach McCarthy,” Cobb said, via Doug Farrar of [more]"

2019
"What I'm Hearing: Touchdown Wire's Doug Farrar spoke with Steelers sources that say GM Kevin Colbert has unrealistic expectations for Antonio Brown's trade value."

2017
"Cian Fahey, John Middlekauff, Marcus Mosher, Mark Schofield, Duke Manyweather, Ethan Young, Joe Goodberry, Justis Mosqueda, Charles McDonald, Zach Kruse, Derrik Klassen, Jerod Brown, Ian Wharton, Kyle Posey, Mark Bullock, Chuck Zodda and Doug Farrar have watched tape for months to bring you these grades."

2016
" It's evident by this stat from Doug Farrar of Sports Illustrated, however, the Broncos defense also had a little something to do with that: Even if Belichick believes preparing against Manning today doesn't take the same amount of work it did in years past, he would never say that to the media."

2015
"com's Michael Silver and the San Jose Mercury News' Tim Kawakami all commented on how the paradigm is shifting in regard to how players are approaching their careers: The MMQB's Andrew Brandt explained how he thinks this news might impact the mindset of players going forward: Doug Farrar of Sports Illustrated wondered if Junior Seau's suicide played a role in Borland's decision along with the thinking of other younger players who hung up their cleats this spring: By retiring now, Borland is leaving potentially millions in future earnings on the table."

2014
" Doug Farrar of Sports Illustrated weighed in on Mallett's move into the starting role: At 4-5 heading into Week 10, the Texans could still make the playoffs with a hot second half of the season."
