The rosters are pretty much set, but some teams forgot to do some of their shopping this offseason.

Let's break down some scenarios we'd like to see (but might take some money to bring about).

There might not be a more interesting and surprising story in the majors so far in 2013 than that of Domonic Brown, who enters June as baseball's hottest power hitter. It's a stunning turnaround for the Phillies outfielder, who was widely seen before...

Has Gronk gronked his final gronk? Tuesday's news that Rob Gronkowski will undergo back surgery continued a disastrous eight-month run that has seen him already go under the knife four times for the forearm injury he first suffered in Week 11 and a s...

How young QBs and their cheap contracts make veterans like Philip Rivers look expendable.

The injury bug has finally caught up with the 49ers, and now they are in the market for a Pro Bowl–caliber receiver.

Oh dear. Tim Tebow. Do we have to do this? There's way more meaningful stuff happening elsewhere this week, in case you haven't noticed. This isn't going to be fun for you, or for me, or really even for Tim Tebow. Fine. Just know that I think your ob...

Days 2 and 3 of the NFL draft are an exercise in waiting for the players you've heard of to be drafted. Much respect to you if you've broken down tape on the small-school prospects who are coming off the board in the fifth round, but I think the majo...

What do smart NFL teams do in and around draft day that naive, stupid teams don't do? They draft better players, of course, but it's not that simple. They don't "want it more" and will themselves into picking better players. The dregs of the league d...

There's one enormous misconception that keeps cropping up this NFL offseason in the reaction to surprising personnel decisions. In terms of evaluating how much a particular player is worth (to his team or another), one little tidbit matters more than...

You're probably familiar with the "hometown discount," the millions of dollars that a player entering free agency is supposed to leave on the table so he can exhibit loyalty to the piece of laundry that acquired his rights (often with little or no in...
