If you're looking for who'll have it first, generally it's one of the "quick update" pages or one of the national Twitter feeds.

LaCanfora, Mortensen and Schefter seem to be the quickest off the draw from what I've seen. Glazer can be good too. His info is generally solid but he's not always the fastest to report it.

This is a link from a deadskins forum but they have an extensive list of links to mockdrafts as well as the dates they were updated. Have used this as a place to get my mock draft fix for a couple of years. There might be other places that are not linked to an opposing team forum but I have found this one to be ok

btw...i've got twitter feeds from every team in the league and other natl guys that aren't listed above if anyone is interested. i've got at least 2 beat reporters for most of the teams.

i used it when i played ffb.

Sounds good :thumbsup:

That's something I've been meaning to do but never got around to it :lol:

i would add @ravensinsider to the twitter feed. he does a great job of keeping up with every team and will much of the time scoop a lot of the national guys. he's about as reliable as jay glazer, imo.

@ravensinsider is fantastic. That guy really does a good job of keeping up with every single team, almost before the team's beat writers know.

Will add more later.

Some coaching news from different sources...

Legendary OL Coach Hudson Houck is retiring from the Cowboys. He'll be replaced by Bill Callahan.

Colts may hire the Eagles director of player personnel to be their new GM.

Per Adam Schefter, Sal Alosi - remembered for the famous tripping incident on the Jets sideline - will join Jim Mora's coaching staff in UCLA. Probably shouldn't surprise as Mora once had Alex Gibbs on staff. Guess he's okay with guys who have a rep for being a tad dirty.

LaCanfora expects the Falcons to lose at least one position coach on top of having already lost both coordinators. Thinks former Jags OC Dirk Koetter could get the Falcons OC spot. Glazer doesn't see the Falcons going after Mike Martz.

Alex Marvez speculates the Dolphons could take a look at Hue Jackson.

Speaking of the Dolphins, this from John Clayton: He thinks the longer the decision process drags out, the more likely it becomes that Jeff Fisher will ultimately choose Miami. That of course, would leave the Rams to pursue other candidates (like Rob Chudzinski) :(

    • I was checking out Chris Brazzell II measureables, and I thought they looked suspiciously familiar. Turns out it was true, almost identical measureables to former Panthers DJ Chark circa 2023. I even checked Terrace Marshall Jr results, and honestly isn't that far behind them.   I know this isn't unique for just our team, but we seem to specifically have an obsession with trying to make this tall lanky speedsters work for us. I admittedly wasn't that high on Brazzell, and when I watched the tape I didn't really see that 4.3 speed, and a strong wind seems to tackle him.   I really liked most of the draft, including getting Hecht in the 5th when I graded him as a #1 Center in this draft. I'm rooting for the guy to work out, especially since our HC and OC made their bones as Wide Receiver coaches. But Brazzell is the only one I'm kinda meh on. I was hoping we'd trade up to get Big Citrus, or if we went WR I liked Ted Hurst much better. We'll see though. 3rd rounders seem to be coin-flips for us (see DJ Johnson/Matt Corral). But I'm rooting for the guy and for this experiment to finally pay off.   I haven't seen anyone else post something about this, so just thought it was interesting and passing it along.   #keeppounding   -------------------------------------------------------------- AI Overview   Chris Brazzell II and D.J. Chark both possess nearly identical elite deep-threat profiles, highlighted by their tall, lanky builds and blazing sub-4.40 speed. Chark was slightly faster, while Brazzell offers a marginally heavier frame and longer wingspan. [1, 2, 3, 4] The side-by-side physical and athletic testing results from their respective NFL Scouting Combines outline their comparable profiles: [1] Metric [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] D.J. Chark (2018) Chris Brazzell II (2026) Height 6'3" 6'4" Weight 199 lbs 198 lbs Wingspan 78.5" 80.1" 40-Yard Dash 4.34 seconds 4.37 seconds 10-Yard Split ~1.50s (est.) 1.52 seconds Vertical Jump 40.0" 40.0" (pre-draft) Hand Size 9.25" 9.0" Analytical Comparison Size & Build: Both receivers offer an excellent catch radius with lanky, outside-threat frames. Brazzell holds a slight edge in height and an even more significant advantage in wingspan, giving him a massive target radius. Speed Profile: Chark famously recorded the fastest 40-yard dash time at his combine, while Brazzell was a standout at his event. Both times are elite for their size, translating directly to the "field-stretching" and vertical playmaking abilities that define their games. Draft Status: Chark was selected by the Jacksonville Jaguars in the second round (61st overall) of the 2018 Draft. Brazzell was selected by the Carolina Panthers in the third round (83rd overall) of the 2026 NFL Draft.
    • I still reserve my right to bitch about how incompetent the Panthers are at running a football organization and point to the mountains of evidence in support.
