It’s an injection of youth in the NFL, as free agency dies down, leaving jobs open around the NFL for incoming rookies. Which remaining jobs are earmarked for the specific rookies in this year’s class?
Brian (@BrianHarrFF) and James (@_JamesTheBrain) discuss the glaring needs among NFL teams after the free agency smoke clears, and the incoming rookies who make the most sense for those openings. The Chargers and the Dolphins still have gaping holes at the quarterback position, and it just so happens that the 2020 class features future franchise quarterbacks Tua Tagovailoa and Justin Herbert. But which QB is the better fit for each job? New England, Indianapolis, Chicago, Detroit and Pittsburgh could also use long-term QB options, and this deep class includes Jordan Love, Jalen Hurts and several others. Which player/team combinations would fit perfectly? And of course, Joe Burrow is headed to Cincinnati to usher in a new era for the Bengals… but is it the right situation for Burrow? Or for Cincinnati??
Some NFL teams (Denver, Houston… Atlanta?) addressed needs at running back, while other teams simply created a new hole at the position. Most teams that had a need, still have a need. Now Buffalo, Miami, Baltimore, Pittsburgh, Kansas City, Tampa Bay, San Francisco and the LA Rams will look to the draft for RB depth, and possibly even a new feature back. Jonathan Taylor, D’Andre Swift, Cam Akers, JK Dobbins and Clyde Edwards-Helaire enter the NFL Draft with great expectations, and are ready to take over the workload for needy teams. Which teams should enlist each of these young stud backs?
And the wide receiver group may be the deepest position in the entire rookie class, with Ceedee Lamb, Jerry Jeudy, Jalen Reagor, Henry Ruggs III, Justin Jefferson, Laviska Shenault, Denzel Mims, Tee Higgins and several others. It just so happens that NFL franchises range from needy to desperate at the WR position, so which players would fit in New England? Indianapolis? Houston? Vegas? NY Jets? Kansas City? Denver? Philadelphia? Washington? Minnesota? Green Bay? San Francisco???
All that and more, on this week’s matchmaking episode!
