Philip Rivers may have enough children to start his own XFL team, but he’s still 36 years old and not getting any younger.
The Chargers could very well be contenders in the AFC title race this season, with a wealth of talent on both sides of the ball. If the club opts to take their quarterback of the future, they could look to another NC State alum, Ryan Finley.
The Wolfpack senior has steadily increased his draft stock over the course of his college career, and is already off to a strong start in 2018. Finley has all of the physical tools and arm strength one looks for in an NFL quarterback. His accuracy numbers have improved every year in college and while he’s not as exciting athletically as prospects like Herbert, he still has a chance to wind up as a first-round selection.
The Le’Veon Bell fiasco continues to unravel with each passing day and it’s all but guaranteed that he won’t be on the Steelers roster come this time next year. Pittsburgh still has hometown hero James Conner, who could be poised for a huge year in Bell’s absence, but the club could still use some depth at the running back position.
Bryce Love is one of the fastest and most productive players in all of college football and could wind up excelling in a Christian McCaffrey/Alvin Kamara type role at the next level. His lack of size could limit his role a bit but there’s no denying that his explosiveness and vision will make him a welcome addition on any NFL roster. The Steelers pairing Conner with Love would make for an awfully dangerous backfield.
