Chiefs WR Xavier Worthy Will Be a Bust
Many football fans were left shocked and scratching their heads when the Buffalo Bills traded down in the first round of the NFL Draft, with their rival the Chiefs of all teams. Chiefs fans rejoiced when this trade went down as the team was finally able to use first round draft capital on an elite receiving talent, and with Xavier Worthy’s record breaking 4.21 second 40-yard dash at the Draft Combine, on paper it seemed like a match made in heaven. Fans are hoping that Worthy will finally be the worthy successor to Tyreek Hill. After a handful of draft busts and arrests that promising receiver Rashee Rice has faced this offseason, Worthy has a prime opportunity to run away with the number one receiving role in Kansas City.

A Cardinals-Marlins trade that lays the foundation for Oli Marmol replacement
I'd like to preface this entire story by noting Oli Marmol's job is safe for now. The Cardinals hold the final NL Wild Card spot and are in prime position to add at the MLB trade deadline. There's little to worry about for Marmol, who has done a decent enough job turning the Cards season around after a suspect start. He deserves some of the credit for that.
