3 future NFL offensive rookies that will make impact regardless of draft pick

3 players that I think will make an impact regardless of when they are selected in the draft (offense)
1. Jalen Hurts:  Probably one of the biggest questions going into the 2020 NFL draft is when Jalen Hurts will get drafted.  To me he is one of the most improved players in the draft.  Before last season I saw him as a 6th rounder at best because before, his arm did not really impress me at Alabama.  This season at Oklahoma, what impressed me was the way he improved week by week and got better as the season went on.  In the NFL I only see him getting better.  It might take a year or two on the bench before he gets a chance, but I do see him starting eventually.

2. Cam Akers:  When you talk about NFL draft Running Backs, I think the most ready running back power, speed, and size wise for the NFL is Cam Akers.  I really do not see why he is not a first rounder.  To me he has the all of the attributes of a top tier NFL running back.  He is fast, he also runs with power, and has probably as much elusiveness as any other running back in the draft.  His stats from his college career might not show it, but to me he is probably the best pick for a team looking for an NFL ready running back.  No lies, if I were to pick either him to Dalvin Cook coming out of college, I would pick Akers because I think he is the type of back any NFL team would drool for.

3. Tee Higgins:  To me he will only need a year before he is shredding defenses in the NFL.  Tee Higgins is one of the best wide receivers in college football.  He is fast, extremely athletic, and is a winner meaning he will do what it takes to win.  His pro day was not the most impressive but he did have the measurable's of an upper 2nd round or late first round pick.  Either way, he will make a solid impact on any team that picks him.

Why I disagree with the NIL rule

  As a lot of people know, the NCAA recently passed a rule stating that players will be allowed to profit off their name and likeliness.  To most people, this is a good thing, a big deal, finally NCAA athletes will be able to profit off of their names and make extra money for college things like that.  Me, as someone who was a high school athlete and has been a college football fan my whole life, as someone going to college,  I think this is wrong.  To me, selling your name and letting athletes make money.  In a lot of ways, I think it ruins the sport, because after all, college sports are not about the money and glory things like that.  Thats what pro sports are supposed to do.  College sports are supposed to be about passion, not about pay, or having a job, things like that.  In my opinion, college athletes are paid in scholarships and college aid, and how players do in and on the field to earn that money.  With the NIL ruling, college...

Sunshine state hockey rivalry living up to the hype

  THE PANTHERS AND LIGHTNING HAVE CREATED ONE OF THE MOST ENTERTAINING PLAYOFF SERIES WE HAVE SEEN IN A WHILE The Florida panthers are set for a heated game six on Wednesday night at the Amalie arena at 8 pm.  In what has been an up and down series for both teams.  The lightning who had a seemingly insurmountable 3-1 lead in the series have suffered a critical loss in their hopes in winning the series after a 4-1 loss to bring the series to 3-2.  A win for the lightning would mean a series victory tonight and a win for the Florida panthers would create a challenging Friday night game 7 at the BB&T center in Sunrise for the Tampa Bay Lighting.

Rob Gronkowski comes out of retirement to play for the Buccaneers

The Gronk-Brady duo comes to Florida Rob Gronkowski comes out of retirement after 2 years of not playing.  On Tuesday 4/21 Gronkowski was traded by the New England Patriots to the Tampa Bay buccaneers for a fourth round draft pick.  Rob Gronkowski was responsible for more than 7,800 receiving yards, and 79 total receiving touchdowns and helped guide Tom Brady and the New England patriots to 3 super bowl wins.  He is also responsible for 16% of Tom Brady's total touchdowns regular season and post season. The buccaneers already have one of the most talented receiving cores in the NFL right now.  With guys like Chris Godwin, Mike Evans, O.J Howard and Cameron Brate.  With the edition of Gronk, who knows how much better this receiving core will be.  I know that this season has not started yet.  But I think the Buccaneers are a playoff, maybe super bowl caliber team under the right circumstances.  But there is still a lot of things that need t...
