Here’s our final big board for the 2023 NFL Draft.
The 2023 NFL Draft is mere hours away, and now, we finally have the culmination of our season-long coverage with my 2023 NFL Draft board.
I ranked 200 prospects from every college imaginable, from Alabama to Stone Cold Stephen F. Austin (gimme a hell yeah), from Florida State to Sacramento State. The 200 prospects ranked cover almost every position. It’s my first time publishing a big board this large.

With QB flexibility and 5 Top-84 picks, including 2 first-rounders, the Seahawks control the draft.
If I were to tell you at this time last year that the Seattle Seahawks would be picking in the top-5 and then in the 20s in the 2023 NFL Draft, you would assume that Seattle was as bad as expected post-Russell Wilson trade and that they’d be in desperate need of a quarterback.
Needless to say, it didn’t work out that way.
The Patriots reportedly have a very real interest in former Kentucky QB Will Levis.
Levis has become a focal point of the NFL Draft ahead of picks getting underway Thursday. His odds to be taken first overall skyrocketed Tuesday due to a random Reddit post claiming he told his family the Panthers informed him he’d be the top pick.
If that doesn’t happen – there’s no concrete reporting to suggest it will – the Patriots have some serious interest in him.
Former Colorado football player Zachary Courtney is struggling to get coaches his practice film.
The former three star tight end recruit hopped into the portal last week after appearing in two games in 2022. He has four years of eligibility remaining.
However, not being able to show coaches any film is a bit of a problem. The young tight end tweeted Tuesday that Deion Sanders won’t allow him to share any of his practice film from last season.
Instead, coaches interested in Courtney’s services will just have to “text” him.
Young scored Atlanta’s final 14 points, capped by the winner from near the logo. Here’s how we got there.
The Suns, powered by an unrelenting barrage of impact plays from Devin Booker and Kevin Durant, closed out the short-handed Clippers with a narrow and thrilling Game 5 victory Tuesday night.
Trae Young took over in the fourth quarter, keeping the Hawks alive and extending a series that the Celtics hoped would be over by now.

With star guard Dejounte Murray out and facing a hostile Boston crowd, not many believed in the Hawks’ ability to win Tuesday night’s Game 5 to extend the series and send the action back to Atlanta.
Apparently, the Hawks’ own home arena was among the doubters.
Trae Young’s heroics and the Celtics’ fourth-quarter collapse kept Atlanta’s season alive—and created something of an awkward situation for the folks who run State Farm Arena.
The Celtics maintained a 10-point lead heading into the fourth quarter of Game 5 against the Hawks, but that margin came crashing down in crunch time.
With Atlanta on the brink of elimination, Trae Young delivered a masterful performance, torching Boston for 38 points, including a go-ahead three pointer at the top of the key inside TD Garden to complete the 119–117 come-from-behind victory to force a Game 6.
