I have been asked to write an article about the NFL for a website. I will disclose the website and show you all, once/if I get published.
For now, I need some ideas! He said he wants a "unique take/perspective" and he is partial to front office stuff, but it can be about anything, draft, free agency, x's and o's etc.
Fire away!

If you want to do a lot of research, I'd look at the effect of trading down in the draft (Packer relevant), i.e. rate the players involved 0-4 by some subjective means and see who comes out on top.
0: Didn't make roster
1: Made roster, limited to ST or no PT
2: Primary backup
3: Starter
4: All-Pro
Maybe add a couple levels in between. Don't know.

I think this would be a really interesting read tbh. Also would make for a really good thread on here for debate.

WB set himself up with this thread, too easy.

How GMs become attached to fan favorite players who are actually garbage (i.e. Kuhn).

I hope the article entails why some fans say "OMG guys I have a bad feeling about this game" before every playoff game.
