Jalen Hurts hopes the Philadelphia Eagles find continuity at offensive coordinator with the hiring of Kellen Moore.

"I think as a player, I definitely yearn for the sustainability and the consistency there. ... As a quarterback, I yearn for those things in a playcaller and a quarterback coach because you kind of see how consistency in those areas can breed excellence," Hurts said.

"I find myself in a situation very similar to college in terms of having a constantly revolving door in terms of coordinators and coaches. But I've always managed to have success in it, so that's always been a good thing, because you've been able to learn from people and apply it."

Hurts had continuity at offensive coordinator for the 2021 and 2022 seasons under Shane Steichen, but he left the Eagles to become head coach of the Indianapolis Colts.

Moore is expected to be "in charge" of the offense, per Sirianni's phrasing, with Sirianni taking on a more macro-level role after being the chief offensive designer for his first three seasons in Philadelphia.

When the NFL changed its collective bargaining agreement in 2011 to give first round picks a contract slot based on when they were selected, drafting quarterbacks became a more valuable proposition.

From 1993 to 2010, teams used an average of 8.5 percent of their overall capital in a typical draft by the Jimmy Johnson chart on quarterbacks. Since 2011, that mark has risen to 10.9 percent, a jump of more than 28 percent.

If the New England Patriots select a quarterback at No. 3, they will automatically sign that player to a four-year, $35.8 million deal, or just under $9 million per year.

With the veteran average annual value at quarterback at $46.36 million, the required hit rate of drafting that quarterback at No. 3 would only need to be at 19.3 percent. If the Patriots believe Drake Maye has a 20 percent chance of turning into an NFL-caliber starting quarterback, they would be justified taking him with their pick.

The next positions on the list are edge rusher and wide receiver, which would require a 40.4 percent and 41.8 percent hit rate, respectively.

Linebacker, running back and center would each require a hit rate of more than 80 percent.

The San Francisco 49ers are now the fifth best ever DVOA through 13 games, according to Aaron Schatz. 

The 49ers trail only the 2007 New England Patriots, 1991 Washington Commanders, 1985 Chicago Bears and 1998 Denver Broncos. All four teams reached the Super Bowl while only the Patriots lost it.

The Baltimore Ravens are 11th all-time despite dropping this week.

Patrick Mahomes opened up about Andy Reid has helped his career by letting him be the best version of himself.

Since his redshirt season as a rookie, Mahoes has won two MVPs, two Super Bowls and has reached at least the AFC Championship in all five seasons.

The Detroit Lions have compared Jahmyr Gibbs in how he is a positionless running back similar to Christian McCaffrey. The Lions used the 12th overall pick on Gibbs.

GM Brad Holmes told Peter Schrager he views Gibbs as a "multi-phase, elite, explosive, positionless weapon."

The GM mentioned Gibbs could have the same impact on the Lions' offense as two of the greatest dual-threat backs in NFL history.

"When I first got with the Rams in 2003, Marshall Faulk was still there, and I was a huge Marshall Faulk guy -- just kind of seeing what he does in both phases," Holmes said. "And just from a scouting standpoint, when Christian McCaffrey came out, he was the last guy that I was like, 'Holy cow, this guy can run routes like a slot receiver but also run it.' So, you start getting reminders of those players. I'm not sitting here saying Jahmyr Gibbs is those players, but (he's) just a special weapon like that. We have a lot of excitement and optimism."

ESPN's Bill Barnwell ranked all 32 NFL teams in terms of the strength of their wide receivers, tight ends and running backs, which is headlined by the San Francisco 49ers.

The 49ers ranked third in 2022 and then upgraded by trading for Christian McCaffrey to join their core of Deebo Samuel, George Kittle and Brandon Aiyuk.

The Cincinnati Bengals are ranked second, down first first a year ago.

The Philadelphia Eagles jumped from eighth to third.
