"Analyzing the Rams' Offense and Packers' Performance in Week 9 Clash"

The Los Angeles Rams suffered a 20-3 loss to the Green Bay Packers, with the offense struggling due to questionable decisions by coach Sean McVay. Starting quarterback Brett Rypien limited the team's options, and McVay's decision to punt from the 36-yard line and kick a field goal on a fourth-and-5 situation were criticized. On a positive note, EDGE Byron Young stood out with two sacks, while S Quentin Lake performed well in an expanded role. However, the Rams' running backs, particularly Darrell Henderson, struggled, and TE Tyler Higbee's performance has been disappointing this season.

Raiders Rookie Tyree Wilson Placed on Non-Football Injury List

Las Vegas Raiders' first-round pick Tyree Wilson has been placed on the non-football injury list for the start of training camp due to a foot injury sustained while playing for Texas Tech last year.

"Bryce Young: Panthers' Top Pick in 2023 Draft"

Las Vegas Raiders' third-round pick, Byron Young, may not have impressive pass-rush skills, but he is a force against the run. In 2021, Young ranked fourth among all FBS defensive tackles with an 88.8 run defense grade from Pro Football Focus. Young's play strength is apparent on tape, and he has shown impressive leverage and hand placement at the point of attack to control the block. He has also demonstrated potential as a pass-rusher, using a violent rip move to win and get pressure.

Alabama's Byron Young drafted by Raiders and Rams in third round.

The Los Angeles Rams have selected defensive end/edge Byron Young out of Tennessee with the 77th overall pick in the 2023 NFL draft. Young is a 25-year-old rookie with a unique combination of size and speed, and despite his age, he still has a lot to learn. The Rams made two trades down before selecting Young, who is described as "an explosive edge defender with disruptive play qualities."

"Raiders and Bryce Young make waves in NFL draft picks"

The Las Vegas Raiders selected Alabama defensive tackle Byron Young with the No. 70 pick in the third round of the NFL Draft. Young was expected to be taken in the fourth round, but the Raiders surprised many by selecting him earlier. He is a strong run stopper but needs to improve as a pass-rusher. It is unlikely he will start as a rookie due to the crowded group of interior defensive linemen on the team.

Raiders and Panthers' Top Draft Picks Speak Out

The Las Vegas Raiders selected Alabama DT Byron Young with the 70th overall pick in the third round of the NFL Draft. Young was a second team All-American last season and addresses a major need along the defensive interior for the Raiders. The team hopes his addition, along with that of Tyree Wilson at 7 overall, will improve their defensive front which was one of the worst in the league in sacks last season.

"49ers' Draft Strategy: Avoiding Mistakes and Targeting YAC Monsters and Defensive Tackles"

The Athletic's Dane Brugler has chosen 11 prospects for the San Francisco 49ers in his seven-round mock draft, including edge rusher Byron Young, who could complement Nick Bosa. Brugler also selected cornerback Cory Trice to provide depth, tight end Cameron Latu, linebacker Marte Mapu, offensive lineman Warren McClendon, wide receiver Demario Douglas, and kicker Chad Ryland. The 49ers' lack of premium draft capital means they are more reliant on in-house improvement, but Brugler's choices could fill some of their needs.

"Buffalo Bills' Draft Strategy and WR Concerns for 2023 NFL Season"

The Buffalo Bills need to have a successful Day 2 of the NFL Draft to keep their Super Bowl window open. With the 59th pick, they could select linebacker Jack Campbell, who is a plug-and-play starter and a massive position of need for the team. With the 91st pick, they could select edge rusher Byron Young, who has a Von Miller skill set and can add pass-rushing juice to the team. These selections will allow the Bills to get younger and more explosive on defense while still having the opportunity to add a weapon in Round 1.
