NFL Rumors: Does Anyone Want to Coach Jalen Hurts?

We know that the NFL is a 24/7/365 business and it continually keeps its collective foot on the gas pedal to make it a fountain of news year-round for NFL fans and fantasy managers alike. Chris Allen took on our weekly NFL news and rumors roundup, and one of the gems he uncovered is that people are shying away from the Eagles OC job, even though Jalen Hurts and a collection of talented skill players are already in-house:

“Philadelphia has interviewed eight different people, with two (Brian Daboll and Mike McDaniel) already getting their seats at another table in the league lunchroom. The most-promising selection is Packers’ QB coach Sean Mannion, who already had a virtual interview and will head to the Eagles’ facility for an in-person discussion in the coming days.

“Since taking over as the starter in 2023, Jordan Love leads Hurts in passing success rate and EPA per play. More importantly, Love has attempted 46.3% of his passes to the middle of the field compared to Hurts’ 38.6%. Let’s hope Hurts will still have A.J. Brown to throw to in six months, but even a better approach to reading the field would be a welcome improvement.”

There is so much news and an equal amount of rumors, including plenty of talk about pass catchers being needed with multiple franchises.⤵️

Freedman’s Latest NFL Mock Draft

This week may be the calm before the Super Bowl storm, but when it comes to college all-star games, we’re just getting started. The East-West Shrine Bowl was Tuesday, with the East prevailing, 21-17, as several players like RB Dean Connors boosted their draft potential. The Senior Bowl is Saturday in Mobile, Alabama, so we’ll see who moves up and down the draft board after that game.

Matthew Freedman has been following the NFL Draft intently, moving players up and down his draft board. He’s just released his most recent mock draft, and while Fernando Mendoza has remained locked in the top spot, there was movement around the first round. Like an added number of wide receivers. Always fun to dream on those landing spots. ⤵️
