Renato Nunez Jersey File this in the not-so-surprising category, but because we're le s than a week away from the , general manager Reggie McKenzie would like you to know that his phone line is open. Oh, and he's already taken some calls regarding the No. 4 overall pick."My phone line is always open," McKenzie said, per. "You hear everybody out. If it makes sense and it's going to help the , Darren O'Day Jersey we'll do a deal."We already know that the are one of the teams planning to at least call McKenzie and see , but the revelation does help us put the draft in its proper context.At this point, we're so consumed by quarterback drama that the po sibility of another team wanting Richard Bleier Jersey to move up into the top five for someone not named Marcus Mariota or Jameis Winston seems ridiculous.But the fact is, either Dante Fowler, Jr. or Leonard Williams might be available there. Both could stake Zach Britton Jersey their claim as the best overall player in the draft.While it's unlikely that McKenzie will move out of the top five -- he's under pre sure and needs premium players to help reverse Oakland's fortunes in 2015 -- it's important to remember that picks like this one could end up being the most interesting on Thursday night -- especially if we grow tired Jonathan Schoop Jersey of talking about quarterbacks by then.The latest Podcast of the 2014 before chatting about this year's event with Daniel Jeremiah.

"Obviously we don't know if he's going to turn out to be that player, but skill set-wise, he can move, he can do the whole nine, he has a strong arm, Milwaukee Brewers Blank Jersey a quick release and he can read defenses as a young quarterback. He can make it to that first, that second, that third read. "He's going to be a Yovani Gallardo Jersey good quarterback for a long time in this league."If Sunday proved anything, it was that Carr can operate in the face of some manic blitzes. He can also operate around difficult pre s coverage situations and still find a way to get the ball to his playmakers.As for the comparison, we'll let it slide.

There was no confirmation, Michael Conforto Jersey but it's likely that Jones' yacht was docked when he made his first round selection of Oklahoma wide receiver .The 2020 Darryl Strawberry Jersey cla s of wide receivers is a very deep one, but few expected Lamb to fall into Dallas' lap. After Henry Ruggs III went to the and was selected by the , Lamb was there for the taking and Jones couldn't resist selecting another weapon for quarterback .Jones being able to select an electrifying playmaker like Lamb while on board a $250 million ve sel was easily the Marcus Stroman Jersey biggest flex of the night.

How might the AFC and NFC division races all play out during the 2024 NFL regular season? What surprises might be in store with the 14 total playoff teams?And, of course, the biggest question remains: can anyone slow the Super Bowl roll of the Kansas City Chiefs?Sporting News is back to look into its crystal ball with the big-picture picks and predictions for what should be another exciting and wild ride from early September through early February in the NFL.PREDICTIONS: | NFL season predictions 2024(Getty Images)AFC EastNew York Jets Justin Verlander Jersey (11-6)Buffalo Bills (10-7)*Miami Dolphins (8-9)New England Patriots (3-14)The Jets' hype from last season was a trap SN fell into because of that dominant defense. The Aaron Rodgers' injury derailed things early, but the team still went 7-10 with atrocious QB play for the most part. With Rodgers being merely above average and healthy at age 40, the Jets can take this division from the Bills, who are still strong enough to qualify as a solid wild card. The Dolphins' fade out of the playoffs in the natural course of parity rotation, while the Patriots can vie for league's worst team.2024 NFL RANKINGS: | | | | AFC NorthVincent Carchietta/USA TODAY NetworkBaltimore Ravens (12-5)Cincinnati Bengals (11-6)*Pittsburgh Steelers (10-7)*Cleveland Browns (7-10)The Ravens got stronger offensively by adding Derrick Henry to their rushing attack and will be fine defensively despite losing some staff and personnel with plenty of core pieces. Reigning MVP Lamar Jackson will keep thriving in the new offense to hold off the revived Bengals with a healthy Joe Burrow. Mike Tomlin and the Steelers having a winning record is a lock, and their defense plus much better QB options say playoffs, too. The Browns are the odd team out in a tough division with the most offensive questions.AFC SouthGettyHouston Texans (12-5)Tenne see Titans (9-8)Indianapolis Colts (7-10)Jacksonville Jaguars (7-10)This division is very hard to predict, as the Jaguars and Texans won as mild surprises the past two seasons. Houston looks stronger around C.J. Stroud and Tenne see's overhaul will lead to a surprise upswinging record with Will Levis and rookie coach Brian Callahan. The Colts will have a few transitional lumps, while the Jaguars might need to face a tough decision on Doug Pederson after the season.AFC West(Getty Images)Kansas City Chiefs (15-2)Los Angeles Chargers (10-7)Las Vegas Raiders (5-12)Denver Broncos (5-12)Two things for certain in this division: The Chiefs will Houston Astros Blank Jersey dominate again, and Jim Harbaugh will pull off an inspiring quick turnaround. Kansas City exudes another big season toward a potential second Super Bowl repeat, while Los Angeles has favorable elements to be a lot more competitive. The Raiders will see their bridge at QB break at some point, and the Broncos' bigger concern might be defense.NFC EastGetty ImagesPhiladelphia Eagles (12-5)Washington Commanders (9-8)Dallas Cowboys (8-9)New York Giants (5-12)The Eagles have rebooted offensively and defensively with improved schemes and more reliable young talent. They'll go back to humming with Jalen Hurts. Jayden Daniels also will benefit from great coaching in his rookie season to be a dynamic dual threat in Washington. The Cowboys need more attention for their lack of offseason improvements and key brain drain with Dan Quinn now leading the Commanders instead. The Giants are headed to draft Daniel Jones' replacement high.NFC NorthJeffrey Becker-USA TODAY SportsDetroit Lions (13-4)*Green Bay Packers (10-7)*Chicago Bears (9-8)*Minnesota Vikings (5-12)The Lions should go from breakout NFC runners-up to a dominant, wire- Evan Gattis Jersey to-wire team to take this division again easily with fewer holes. The Packers will be once again powered well by the brilliant offensive coaching of Matt LaFleur pumping up Jordan Love. Caleb Williams will duel Daniels for OROY all season while also leading his team to a wild card, and the Vikings wait for J.J. McCarthy in 2025.NFC South(Getty)Atlanta Falcons (9-8)Tampa Bay Buccaneers (7-10)New Orleans Saints (6-11)Carolina Panthers (4-13)Kirk Cousins flips the Falcons from their 7-10 limbo to finally take advantage of great weapons in a much more dynamic, pa s-heavier offense, with the defense also responding well to Raheem Morris. That causes the Bucs to slide a bit with Baker Mayfield, while the vibes with Derek Carr and the Saints stink for a Dennis Allen lame-duck season. The Panthers look a lot better offensively with Bryce Young, but their D now needs work.NFC WestGetty49ers 14-3Rams 9-8Seahawks 6-11Cardinals 4-13The 49ers' offensive juggernaut led by Christian McCaffrey and Brock Purdy might have a slight early hiccup, but it will not be stopped in the end with terrific complementary support from the defense. The Rams stay in the mix without Aaron Donald thanks to Sean McVay Hector Rondon Jersey 's coaching. The Seahawks go through a tough transitional year, a la the Giants, while the Cardinals' defense sinks them for Jonathan Gannon in Year 2.AFC playoff predictionsKansas City ChiefsHouston TexansBaltimore RavensNew York JetsCincinnati BengalsBuffalo BillsPittsburgh SteelersWild-card round: Texans over Steelers, Ravens over Bills, Bengals over JetsDivisional round: Chiefs over Bengals, Texans over RavensAFC championship: Chiefs over TexansThe Chiefs gain a new real threat in the Texans with the Bills fading a bit and the Bengals creeping back into that realm. The Ravens also will hope to stay in true AFC contention, but Kansas City and Houston look like the conference's two best all-around teams.NFC playoff predictionsDetroit LionsSan Francisco 49ersPhiladelphia EaglesAtlanta FalconsGreen Bay PackersWashington CommandersChicago BearsWild-card round: 49ers over Bears, Eagles over Commanders, Packers over FalconsDivisional round:Lions over Packers, 49ers over EaglesNFC championship:Lions over 49ersThe Lions, 49ers, and Eagles do separate a bit from the rest of the NFC, with the latter two having been to the Super Bowl in consecutive seasons. The Commanders and Bears crash the party with promise ahead for Daniels and Williams, while Love adds another playoff win. The Lions ultimately use their home-field edge to exact revenge after last season's crushing NFC title lo s.Super Bowl 59 Michael Brantley Jersey predictionKansas City Chiefsover Detroit LionsThe Chiefs are much like the new Patriots but only with more dynastic potential because of Patrick Mahomes. Mahomes got his Super Bowl lo s out of the way and that's what makes him so much more dangerous in his prime to take down all comers from the NFC. San Francisco (twice) and Philadelphia (once) couldn't solve him, and Detroit, despite a valiant offensive effort, will put the ball in Mahomes' hands too many clutch times.

It is not a well Bobby Massie Jersey kept secret that Newcastle struggle to impose themselves in offensive set pieces. Newcastle have not scored from a corner since we beat Wolves in October 2011. On top of this, so far this season, only one headed goal has been scored by Newcastle, discounting Demba Bas handball against that is.The fact is that our delivery often lacks quality and our runs lack invention. From Trey Burton Jersey free-kicks Newcastle constantly look to find Mike Williamson who tries to nod it back acro s to a runner, however this rarely works. Charles Leno Jersey Cabayes corners lack pace and are usually just stood up to the back post. There is also no invention as well, I saw Stoke score a well worked corner where there were blockers in place allowing Jon Walters an unpre surised shot on goal. This sort of thing would definitely be good Allen Robinson Jersey for newcastle as we have a distinct lack of real height.Our balls from out wide are also not good enough, we play a left footer on the right and two right footers on the left, unsurprisingly this means they cut inside a lot meaning that a chance of a free header is lost due to the extra second taken getting the ball in.What do you think would be the best solution to our lack of goals from out wide, Ben Arfa and Gutierrez to Kyle Fuller Jersey swap wings, or something more ?

91. Indiana ( Drew Smyly Jersey preseason: 28th)Main starter: Nate SudfeldBuzz: Sudfeld, who has a nice arm but had been inconsistent, has been lost for the season with a shoulder injury. The question is which true freshman takes over: Chris Covington or Zander Diamont, who is more of a dual-threat guy than a pocket pa ser. Check out the alternate college football uniforms worn during the 2014 season. 92. Virginia (preseason: 98th)Main starter: Greyson LambertBuzz: The Cavaliers have performed better than expected, but it's not because of sterling quarterback play.

Georgia State (preseason: 101st)Main starter: Nick ArbuckleBuzz: Arbuckle, a JC transfer, has provided a needed boost for the pa sing attack. He has nine TD pa ses but also eight picks. Georgia State's offensive coordinator is Jeff Jagodzinski, a former Boston College coach who also has been an NFL a Blank Jersey sistant.94. LSU (preseason: 57th)Main starter: Anthony JenningsBuzz: Neither Jennings nor true freshman has been a consistent pa ser. They have completed fewer than 50 percent of their pa ses in three of four games against tougher competition.95. Northwestern (preseason: 53rd)Main starter: Trevor SimienBuzz: Billy Williams Jersey Simien has a nice arm but must become more consistent; he has more picks (five) than TD pa ses (four).96. Pittsburgh (preseason: 64th)Main starter: Chad VoytikBuzz: Voytik has been an inconsistent pa ser, and aside from a 100-yard performance against FIU, he hasn't been nearly as effective as expected as a runner.97. Michigan (preseason: 32nd)Main starter: Devin GardnerBuzz: Gardner has all the needed physical tools -- he has a strong arm and can be a dangerous runner -- but remains wildly inconsistent.98. South Alabama Justin Grimm Jersey (preseason: 118th)Main starter: Brandon BridgeBuzz: Bridge, a Canadian who began his career at FCS member Alcorn State, is a big guy (6-5, 220) with dual-threat capabilities. But while Bridge has the needed physical talent and has an intriguing upside, he has not played all that well. Half of his six TD pa ses came last week against Appalachian State, so perhaps he is on track for a big second half.99. UTEP (preseason: 47th)Main starter: Jameill ShowersBuzz: Showers competed with for Texas A&M's starting job in 2012. Everyone knows how that turned out, and Showers left for UTEP. He played well when healthy last season, but has struggled with his consistency this season.100.
