Where will the Top 5 Quarterbacks Land- 2019 NFL Draft

The 2019 NFL Draft begins Thursday Night and five top rated Quarterbacks may find a home in the first round. Kyle Murray will be the first focus, due to the "over hyped" coverage being produced on all networks. If you've read any articles in the last couple of months, you already know that Murray will be a great fit for the Arizona Cardinals. Kliff Kingsbury, the new head coach of the cardinals, may run an offense that Murray is very familiar with since both are from the offensive focused Big 12 Conference. Murray is extremely quick, displays incredible arm strength, and uses both effectively. The Cardinals may stick with previous first round pick, Josh Rosen of the 2018 draft, but I believe Murray will be selected first overall no matter what.

Will Grier, another distinguished Big 12 QB, may find a perfect fit in the first round. The Miami Dolphins are in deep need of quarterback play. The 2019-2020 season will be a major rebuild for Miami and Grier could learn a lot from veteran Ryan Fitzpatrick. Grier throws on the run better than many other quarterbacks already in the NFL and would bring a lot of playing experience to the Dolphins.

Dwayne Haskins will be joining another Big Ten superstar on Thursday Night, because the New York Giants are the perfect fit for this young QB. Let's face it, Eli Manning is getting old and the Giants need a talented backup to learn from the Veteran before he retires. Haskins is an excellent pocket passer, very similar to Manning's earlier seasons, while also dealing with a slow speed. I believe a year under Manning will help him develop successfully.

The final two quarterbacks of the 1st round will be Drew Lock of Missouri and Daniel Jones of Duke. Starting with Lock, I believe the perfect fit for the 6"4 QB would be Denver, due to their past of drafting several big passers.  A year under newly appointed starter Joe Flacco would do the trick for the strong armed QB from the SEC. Daniel Jones on the other hand could fall to the reigning Champions, the New England Patriots. Jones's most valuable strength is his ability to read the field and escape pressure, factors Tom Brady has excelled at. The Charlotte, NC native could turn out to be the best quarterback of the 2019 draft.

Madness Follow Up

Well, its all over. The tables and chairs have been collected, the dance is over. This dance did not end with a slow song. The University of Virginia has made history in the tournament two years in a row, for two different reasons. You may remember last years tournament when the number one overall team, the University of Virginia, became the first team in tournament history to lose in the first round to a 16 seed. This year, Virginia entered the tournament with similar accolades and was once again the number one team in the land. This year, they flipped the switch and took it all the way playing the "cinderella" Texas Tech in the finals. Cinderella was by no means, easy. Texas Tech regained the lead with minutes left until a Kyle Guy clutch 3 point shot put the biggest game of the year in overtime. Virginia regained control of the game and became national champions for the first time. In what started off as the most predictable tournament in years, so predictable that someo

Will Hailie Deegan Be NASCAR's First Female Winner? Many casual sports fans or people not familiar with NASCAR may think Danica Patrick was the first female racer. She was far from the first female to compete in the Cup Series, but she built a following, had more popularity, and had a larger sponsorship than any previous female driver. Now that Patrick is retired, who will be the next female racing star? One name is making headlines in the lower divisions, Hailie Deegan. Daughter of X-Games and Motocross legend Brian Deegan, Hailie is a 17-year-old racer from Temecula, California. She grew up racing on dirt and in off road trucks, but since 2016 has been pavement racing, with aspirations of making it to the top levels of NASCAR. In 2018, Deegan raced for Rookie of the Year honors in the NASCAR K&N Pro Series West. The K&N Pro Series is a NASCAR developmental series split into the East and West divisions, where teenagers race on short tracks and road courses aroun

Is Kyle Busch One of NASCAR's Best Ever?

Image
One of the most controversial and polarizing drivers in NASCAR history, Kyle Busch has certainly made his mark in the world of stock car racing. Busch is a driver who every fan either loves or loathes, due to his brash attitude and his winning record. As he closes in on 200 NASCAR National Series wins across all 3 series, is it right to consider him one of NASCAR's all-time greatest talents? As of the time I am writing this (March 5, 2019) Kyle Busch is 33 years old, and has 197 wins across all 3 NASCAR National touring series. Broken down, Busch currently has 53 Truck Series wins, 93 Xfinity Series wins, and 51 victories in the premier division Cup Series.  Busch's win totals in both Trucks and Xfinity competiton are the all-time win records for each of those series. But where Busch's lower-seris domination is truly evident is in his winning percentage.  Kyle has 53 Truck wins in 147 starts, or a 36% winning percentage. The next winningest Truck Series racer, Ron
