Bears 2026 NFL Draft takeaways: Good value in Round 1, but what about defensive line?
Two days before the draft, Chicago Bears assistant general manager Jeff King said they were looking for competitors. GM Ryan Poles added after Day 2 that they had been more aggressive in how they built their board, only including players who truly fit what they wanted, both on the field and off.Football character, play style and speed were the traits that carried across all seven players in the Bears’ 2026 draft class, but it’s what they didn’t address — the defensive line — that got a lot of at...
The Magic's playoff lead is 16 years in the making: 'We just want to win so bad'
ORLANDO, Fla. — The Orlando Magic have not been here, with such a clear opportunity, for a long, long time.Sixteen years.That was how long ago the Magic led a playoff series after three or more games. It was 2010, and the Magic employed a starting lineup of Jameer Nelson, Vince Carter, Matt Barnes, Rashard Lewis and Dwight Howard. That quintet, along with a deep bench, swept a second-round series against the Atlanta Hawks with a barrage of 3-point shots and with Howard dominating on both ends of...

The 16-team league set a record with 87 selections, dwarfing the previous record the SEC set last year with 79. For the seventh time in the last eight years, the Big Ten finished sec...
Commanders 2026 NFL Draft takeaways: Did Washington get enough help for Jayden Daniels?
ASHBURN, Va. — The Washington Commanders wanted to get younger and faster, to rebuild their defense — particularly their pass rush — and to find more help for quarterback Jayden Daniels.They achieved most of those goals this offseason, signing more than two dozen free agents before finalizing a six-player draft class on Saturday. The star of the group is linebacker Sonny Styles, the former Ohio State standout taken at No. 7 overall. The other five rookies add to position groups that needed impro...
Canadiens playoff notebook: The matchup game and how St. Louis once lifted Slafkovský
MONTREAL — The Montreal Canadiens are up 2-1 in their first-round playoff series against the Tampa Bay Lightning despite not getting a single goal at five-on-five from their top line of Nick Suzuki, Cole Caufield and Juraj Slafkovský.That top line has produced on the power play and was a big reason the Canadiens won Game 1 behind a power-play hat trick from Slafkovský. But they did it in Game 3 with depth scoring, which was a major concern entering the series.Advertisement

Colts 2026 NFL Draft takeaways: Indy grabs potential starters, finds value on defense
The Indianapolis Colts entered the 2026 NFL Draft without a first-round pick and a slew of starting positions up for grabs.They addressed a couple of those holes on Day 2, trading back before selecting former Georgia linebacker CJ Allen and former LSU safety A.J Haulcy in the second and third rounds, respectively. Both players should be poised to start in 2026, with Allen presumably taking over for multiyear starting middle linebacker and team captain Zaire Franklin, whom the Colts traded to the...

Patriots 2026 NFL Draft takeaways: Positions of need addressed early, curious fliers late
On the heels of a Super Bowl run, the New England Patriots used the 2026 NFL Draft to fill specific needs, focusing on their biggest positions of weakness with their early picks before taking some fun late-round fliers Saturday afternoon.They were on the wrong side of some early-round runs that meant they had to trade up to pick offensive tackle Caleb Lomu in the first round and edge rusher Gabe Jacas in the second, but, crucially, those selections addressed their two biggest needs. After that,...

Steelers 2026 NFL Draft takeaways: Round 1 drama, trenches, a couple reaches
The host city was the story of the draft on Thursday night — but not for the reason the team wanted. Steelers GM Omar Khan was on the phone with USC receiver Makai Lemon when the Philadelphia Eagles swooped in to snag him by trading up to the 20th pick. Pittsburgh pivoted by drafting Arizona State offensive tackle Max Iheanachor.

Eagles 2026 NFL Draft takeaways: Era-high gap between picks with a lot of trades
PHILADELPHIA — The Philadelphia Eagles seemed more confident they’d satisfy their needs by spending 2026 draft picks as trade capital rather than picking from this cycle’s pool of prospects at a high volume. It is fair to suggest the Eagles didn’t see much value in the middle rounds. Their 110-pick gap between picks No. 68 and 178 was the franchise’s widest since at least 2010, when Howie Roseman was first named general manager.Advertisement
