Football fans, college or pro, can study each NFL franchise’s needs from this week’s draft — and why it isn’t smart to try to get the “next version” of a star — in the latest edition of Sports Insider ahead of the picks being announced.

This week’s 43-page edition of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s digital magazine takes a look at the Hawks’ latest strategy in the playoffs as well, and how it paid off big to keep them in the series with the Boston Celtics.

Also, find out the details of a pro golfer’s upbringing that puts a different perspective on the oft-criticized decision to leave the PGA Tour in favor of LIV Golf.
