There are a ton of high-quality position units across the league, so let's look at the three best as we race into the 2024 NFL Season. This was actually quite hard, but I believe I've picked the three best units across all NFL teams for 2024. I could end up being very wrong, but it's hard to not love these position groups on paper. Can they prove me right and end up being elite units who help propel their teams into the playoffs in 2024?

The Detroit Lions went out and signed a good amount of undrafted rookies after the 2024 NFL Draft. One of the more notable signs was Fresno State cornerback Morice Norris.  The thing that made it notable was that the Lions had shown a lot of interest in Norris ahead of the draft. They attended ...

The Detroit Lions had plenty of needs to consider this offseason, but arguably the most important was at cornerback. Fortunately, they addressed that hole in a big way. By adding Terrion Arnold and Ennis Rakestraw in the first two rounds of the 2024 NFL Draft, the Lions powerfully filled a void in their secondary, and could quickly benefit from the decision to prioritize the position.

It can be tough to separate real news from fake news in this great age of social media, but presumably we can trust the word of the man himself, Roméo Lavia. On Saturday, rumors spread on Twitter that the young midfielder has picked yet another injury. This rumor, which claimed that the injury occured in a closed-doors friendly against Leeds United, found fertile ground and spread like a weed, eventually coming to the attention of Lavia as well.

In a night where it was seemingly wise to expect the unexpected, it was Teoscar Hernández from the Los Angeles Dodgers who wound up becoming MLB's Home Run Derby champion for 2024. Indeed, just one season after his good buddy Vladimir Guerrero Jr. won the Derby, Hernández joined his pal in the pantheon of Derby winners by hitting a grand total of 49 homers on the night.

Unfortunately for the trialist we completely dominated this game and he had very little to do. He did look calm in possession and not overly eager to impress. Absolutely nothing to do defensively but got on the scoresheet after his effort from inside the box took a deflection and looped into the top corner.

The criticism has been getting louder and louder for the Eagles and Jalen Hurts in the offseason. By now, the Eagles’ disappointing season in 2023 talks have been beaten to a pulp and the consequences keep piling on. ESPN insider Jeremy Fowler came out with his annual series asking NFL coaches and executives to rank the top ten players of each position. In this year’s iteration, Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts was left off the top ten list entirely. Hurts has been under constant scrutiny this offseason, whether for his leadership or his play on the field in 2023. It’s clear now that he has questions to answer from not only the fans and media but the league as well.

The Football Association of Wales announced the appointment of former Newcastle United player Craig Bellamy as the new head coach of the Welsh national team on July 9. Wales fired Rob Page after he failed to qualify for EURO 2024 following a series of bad results, and the association has moved on as quickly as possible to name the man who will lead the nation for the next four seasons, including—if all goes well—an appearance in the 2026 World Cup.
