New York Jets running back Frank Gore, on his third AFC East team in three seasons, has spent his time in the division looking up at the New England Patriots. The balance of power, he believes, could be on the verge of shifting. “It’s wide open,” Gore said Thursday on videoconference with reporters. “[Tom] Brady’s […]
Continue readingWhich players benefit most from 2020 NFL schedule in fantasy?
Some housekeeping before I dive into this. First, I’ll be excluding Week 17 from the fantasy categories, though including it has only a minor impact on the findings. Next, note that my strength of schedule evaluation is not based on final 2019 records, which is often what you’ll see in this type of column. There […]

In a move that figures to reduce Le’Veon Bell‘s role, the New York Jets agreed to terms Tuesday with running back Frank Gore on a one-year contract, agent Drew Rosenhaus told ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

The NFL draft is typically about who’s next for each team.

The 2020 NFL draft is complete, with all seven rounds and 255 picks in the books.

Continue reading2020 NFL Mock Draft with all trades: 32 picks, 32 trades from Bill Barnwell
I love a good NFL mock draft, but there’s one problem with everyone’s favorite April exercise: The vast majority of mock drafts don’t feature trades, and in the modern NFL, trades are a must. Of last year’s 32 first-round picks, only 20 were made by the original team holding the selection. One pick — the […]

Fales, 29, who spent most of last season with the Jets, is the only experienced backup to starter Sam Darnold.
