Next notable Vikings WR3 could be discovered in the 2025 NFL Draft

6 days ago | thevikingage.com | Brad Berreman

For now, anyway, it's well-known that the Minnesota Vikings only have four picks in the 2025 NFL Draft. A trade down, or more likely, out of the first round from No. 24 overall, feels likely; the question will be if there's a team that feels compelled to move up.
Former Lions DC Aaron Glenn handled Aaron Rodgers exactly how we knew he would

6 days ago | sidelionreport.com | Brad Berreman

Aaron Glenn's meeting with Aaron Rodgers went exactly as anyone who knows the former Lions' defensive coordinator expected. Immediately upon being hired as the New York Jets' head coach coach, former Detroit Lions defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn made it clear he intended to deal with the biggest elephant in the room as soon as possible. Jay Glazer of FOX Sports passed along what Glenn told him about that on the day of the NFC Championship Game.
Ohio State running back reveals feelings about potential reunion with Chip Kelly

1 week ago | justblogbaby.com | Brad Berreman

The Raiders are a practical lock to draft a running back, and one offensive coordinator Chip Kelly knows well talked about a potential NFL reunion. The Las Vegas Raiders had the NFL's worst rushing offense last season. Some of that can be blamed on an offensive line that wasn't very good, but the stable of running backs was not exactly fantastic either. So the Raiders feel sure to come out of next week's draft with a running back.
Grade the Trade Proposal: Vikings land Jalen Ramsey in huge deal with Dolphins

1 week ago | thevikingage.com | Brad Berreman

Huge news in the NFL was revealed earlier this week when NFL Media reported the Miami Dolphins and cornerback Jalen Ramsey have "mutually agreed" to explore trade options. There should be some suitors for the seven-time Pro Bowler, it's a matter of it making sense financially as much as a team's need. Ramsey is entering his age-31 season, and he did not earn a Pro Bowl selection for the first time since his rookie season last year.
5 Detroit Lions players who could be traded be traded during the 2025 NFL Draft

1 week ago | sidelionreport.com | Brad Berreman

The 2025 NFL Draft is a week away, and the Detroit Lions have seven picks right now. It's also fair to say they don't clear have seven clear-cut open spots on the 53-man roster right now, even with a clear "the best man will win" mandate when it comes to roles and roster spots. For how much as he holds draft picks dear, general manager Brad Holmes is also not afraid to make moves around the board during the draft to move up and get players the Lions covet.
Fantasy owners must hope 49ers draft good Christian McCaffrey succession plan

1 week ago | ninernoise.com | Brad Berreman

Christian McCaffrey is nearing the end of his shelf life as a top-end fantasy running back, so the 49ers have to be eyeing who will take over for him. Christian McCaffrey will turn 29 years old in June, and he's coming off playing just four games last season. With the ranks behind him on the running back depth chart thinned by the departures of Jordan Mason and Elijah Mitchell, the San Francisco 49ers feel like a lock to take a running back in the upcoming draft.
Veteran free agent could be Vikings next notable signing this offseason

1 week ago | thevikingage.com | Brad Berreman

The Minnesota Vikings made a big move at cornerback this offseason by re-signing Byron Murphy to a big three-year deal, and the free agency addition of Isaiah Rodgers as the projected starter opposite Murphy apparently came at the beck and call of defensive coordinator Brian Flores. Behind Murphy and Rodgers, there are question marks on the cornerback depth chart. The Vikings took a flier on former No. 3 overall pick Jeff Okudah, who hasn't proven he can stay healthy.
Former AFC West rival lingers as a solid free agent fit for the Raiders

1 week ago | justblogbaby.com | Brad Berreman

The Raiders could use some veteran reinforcements at wide receiver, and one guy lingers as a fit. It seems likely the Las Vegas Raiders will come out of the 2025 draft with a wide receiver, perhaps as early as No. 6 overall (Tetairoa McMillan?). But outside of Jakobi Myers, depth is a concern at the position and one player won't completely fix that.
Trey Lance still doesn't hold the title of biggest 49ers draft bust ever

1 week ago | ninernoise.com | Brad Berreman

Trey Lance is easy to tab as the biggest 49ers' draft bust of all-time, but he doesn't quite get that title. From the notion he was not head coach Kyle Shanahan's preferred quarterback to take No. 3 overall in the 2021 NFL Draft, to making just four starts in two seasons before being traded to the Dallas Cowboys, Trey Lance's tenure with the San Francisco 49ers did not go anywhere near as planned.
Trade proposal lands Raiders an absolute non-solution to fix rushing attack

1 week ago | justblogbaby.com | Brad Berreman

The Raiders could still go a few ways to fix their rushing attack, but this trade idea is not the answer. The Las Vegas Raiders had the NFL's worst rushing attack by a noticeable margin last season (79.8 yards per game). Head coach Pete Carroll and offensive coordinator Chip Kelly will surely fix that immediately, however it ultimately looks in 2025. Signing Raheem Mostert is not enough. It's easy to tie Boise State running back Ashton Jeanty to Raiders with the sixth overall pick in the draft.
