The NFL draft can create some uncomfortable drama when players last longer on the board than expected, leaving them to wonder when the slide will end.

With fewer consensus first-rounders than slots on Day 1, the NFL draft always lends itself to some surprising names being called by Roger Goodell.

Stetson Bennett and Max Duggan were some of college football’s most accomplished players last year, but the QBs’ NFL draft outlook is decidedly murky.

Jalen Hurts is now the NFL’s highest-paid player after agreeing to a five-year, $255 million deal, but he might not have that title for long.

With less than two weeks remaining until the start of the 2023 NFL draft, uncertainty reigns – beginning with the mystery surrounding the No. 1 pick.

From gifted but erratic passers in Anthony Richardson and Will Levis to a pair of speedy receivers, the NFL draft has many boom-or-bust prospects.

The NFL draft has seen several quarterbacks fall further than initially expected, and Will Levis could be the latest to drop.

While the overwhelming majority of top NFL free agents have already signed deals, some strong contributors are still looking for a landing spot.

NFL free agency officially begins on Wednesday, but many of the top players have already locked in deals with new teams.
