TAMPA, Fla. — The Florida Panthers aren’t taking part in these Stanley Cup playoffs.

Exploring Panthers' draft scenarios at 19: An Oregon playmaker? Another WR?
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Had the NFL world known about Bryce Young’s pre-draft throwing session with Tetairoa McMillan last year, it’s reasonable to suggest the Arizona receiver would have been a more popular pick for the Carolina Panthers in mock drafts.But the two kept the workout quiet until draft night, when McMillan disclosed it after the Panthers took him with the eighth pick. Young and McMillan returned to Golden West College in California this offseason and were joined by several other Panthers...
Lions NFL Draft analysis: Predicting what they will do in Round 1 and more
Predicting what GM Brad Holmes and the Detroit Lions do come draft time can be sort of a moot exercise.

Walt Weiss' job has changed in Atlanta. His personal approach with players hasn't
As Dansby Swanson recalls, the conversation took place in the spring of 2019, before he was fully established as a player.Walt Weiss, entering his second season as a coach with the Atlanta Braves, pulled the young shortstop aside for a pep talk.“Never stop being the winner you are,” Weiss said.The message, coming from a former shortstop and World Series champion, made a powerful impression on Swanson. Weiss not only saw beyond his early struggles as a hitter, but also grasped his intangible valu...
The New York Giants, with their first round picks in the 2026 NFL draft, select...
I don’t like to do 17 mock drafts so that I can point back to Mock 7.0 and claim I “nailed” the Giants’ first-round pick. I try to treat mock drafts like an NCAA Tournament bracket, where there is only one “sheet of integrity.”My Giants’ seven-round mock draft was published on Monday, so I’m locked into Ohio State linebacker Sonny Styles with the fifth pick and Arizona State wide receiver Jordyn Tyson at No. 10. Naturally, within hours, there seemed to be an endless stream of reports that Styles...

What I'm hearing about the Eagles and NFL Draft with offense an early focus
With the NFL Draft one day away, here’s what I’ve heard about the Philadelphia Eagles’ draft plans and draft process from news conferences, conversations and going on 15 seasons around the franchise:1.
