- What if the NFL added an Expansion Team? There has not been an expansion team since 2002 when the Houston Texans Joined the NFL. The new expansion team will bring an NFL team to Austin Texas called the Austin Rock. The Rock had 3 phases to complete their roster.
First, they had the expansion draft where star players like Ezekial Elliott, Michael Thomas, Darren Waller, Dalvin Cook, Harrison Smith, and more were available. Then the Rock could use free agency to sign playmakers. They took advantage of free agency by bringing in big names such as Dalvin Thomlinson, Rock Ya-Sin, Caleb McGarry, and more. The Rock finally had to build their team through the 2023 NFL Draft where they had the tough choice to decide between Bryce Young, CJ Stroud, or Anthony Richardson at Quarterback. They also had options available on offense and defense such as the University of Texas Running Back Bijan Robinson, Georgia Defensive Lineman Jalen Carter, and more.
This simulation shows a realistic look at what an expansion team's roster would look like. This video was started before free agency so some of the players in the expansion draft were already cut and some of the players in free agency had already signed in real life.

Austin would be a great candidate for expansion. It is a great football town (thanks to UT). one of the fastest growing cities in the nation, and a great music scene. If Austin had a team I would be a fan in a heartbeat.
the country
It’s funny how the last player that they signed is now a top WR in the NFL
Puka Nucua
I did decent as a fake gm 😂. If only I drafted Stroud for them over Bryce Young.
@@analyticswithchrisBryce is good but just needs a good team, I’m sure both quarterbacks would’ve done horribly due to that o line
True
Well if you play fantasy football than puka was someone you should’ve had on your boards all year you knew he was eating
What if I told you the Austin Rock is the next 1 seed in the AFC….
They got that dawg in them
The fact that nobody has mentioned the
Taysom Hill: Everything
Yet is a crime 😂
Thanks for respecting my man’s talents
Its rlly interesting looking back on this after the nfl season ended
very entertaining watch!
Thank You!
Awesome vid man
Bryce Young just set the Rock back 7 years.
If I gave them stroud instead this would’ve been the perfect rebuild 😭😭
They'd pretty much need to add 4 teams in their next expansion to keep divisions from being ridiculous. 6 6-team divisions would work, even if it'd be awkward. Far better than unequal divisions though.
Yeah it would have to be like 8 teams, 4 esch For the AFC and NFC creating a division for each to balance everything out this would be the most realistic scenario. Or add 2 teams and create a 3 team division but seeing way more divisions
This sounds crazy but I'd add 8 - a European division say with Amsterdam, Munich, London and Barcelona then an expansion division with say Toronto, Mexico City, San Diego and St Louis (or Austin or wherever)
Most divisions are already a little awkward if you look at locations. The North's are the only 2 off the top of my head that don't have anything that awkward
They need to realign the divisions strictly on regional geography first. NFL should NOT be adding teams right now.
Old divisional games would be for bragging rights and playoff games would be wild.
New divisional opponents would build better rivalries because the matchups would be closer cities going head to head twice a year.
I believe it would save on traveling expenses and also generate more revenue and profit for all teams.
Since I'm Q-tined, I'm gonna realign the divisions:
AFC West: Seahawks, Broncos, Niners, Chargers
NFC West: Cardinals, Raiders, Rams, Cowboys
NFC South: Texans, Falcons, Saints, Titans
AFC South: Phins, Jags, Buccs, Panthers
NFC North: Vikings, Chiefs, Bears, Packers
AFC North: Lions, Colts, Bengals, Browns
AFC East: Steelers, Manders, Ravens, Eagles
NFC East: Bills, Pats, New York Giants, New Jersey Jets (officially they change their name to New Jersey as more of their fanbase is in New Jersey)
Keep it Rocking with the content
In that case what position will the new team take in the NFL Draft? Very interesting video
9:30
Most likely #1 overall that’s what the last expansion team got checkout the time stamp to see what the draft would look like
Interesting hypothetical video there. But if the NFL did add any more franchises to the league. Most likely they would add 2 teams to keep parity with the number of teams in each conference.
Most likely more to keep the divisions balanced or they would have to create whole new divisions with 3 teams per division
Would love to have a team in CT. Would serve as a nice bridge between the Patriots and Giants/Jets
The rock just instantly makes me think of Dwayne Johnson
San Diego, Portland, Louisville, San Antonio, and Oklahoma City
Very interesting video. Austin Texas is a football city. If a team would want to relocate, Austin could be a potential city.
Idk if this is true but I've heard the University would do everything they could to veto this, apparently they forced the MLS team to go out of downtown and even then have been surprised how successful they've been so want to avoid that again
@@adamdickinson2894I don't think any of that is true
I am tried of all these what ifs asking which cities should get a team and how expansion drafts should work. How would schedules and divisions work. That is far more interesting to me.
We thought the most interesting part would be what the team realistically would look like and that was the point of the video after the first few minutes
I would like to see this in madden
Would be nice for st louis to have a time originally there, not a moved one
Can you do a 4 team expansion draft video next time. You know to make even divisions. You don't need exact cities but Austin can be reused (Although i think the "Rockers" is a dumb name, I'm fond of the Rattlers or Raptors).
This sounds crazy but I'd add 8 expansion teams - a European division say with Amsterdam, Munich, London and Barcelona then an expansion division with say Toronto, Mexico City, San Diego and St Louis (or Austin or wherever)
They'll add 2 teams. When the Texans were added one team had their bye in the first week, which wasn't very fair for the entire league. The team that had that first bye had to play 16 weeks, now 17 weeks straight. That's not fair for them. For the rest of the league the team that plays them the second week might have a bit of an advantage in that they've already played a game. However, the team that didn't play the first week will have an extra week of rest and practice, plus they have a chance to watch their upcoming opponent.
what i would love to see is have few expansion teams north of texas recreating the NFC and AFC central so the cowboys would be in the central division and also put an expansion team on the east coast to replace the cowboys,geographically speaking it makes 0 sense that the cowboys are in the eastern division
The next NFL team should be overseas, the London Knights!
Toronto would technically work like the nba
Jimmy Jones of the Dallas Cowboys will try his hardest to stop this. he is determined to keep them out because he says the Austin area is cowboy country.
The combined Austin/San Antonio metropolitan area is huge in population and has a greater population than most other metro areas. Should build a stadium midway between Austin and San Antonio.
@timmccrory7630, Jerry Jones
@@HighpointerGeocacherwhat I’ve been saying. Right between new braunfels and San Marcos
The cardinals are pretty much an expansion team.
There are a few cities that could be nice for the NFL expansion. Toronto, Vancouver, Mexico City are great choices in North America. London would be another city. However is too far logistically talking for the teams to travel there or coming to US.
With the expansion in europe I doubt it.
San Antonio bros would be crying
Make that pick CJ stroud and this teams in business
Yeah we should have haha. (same with the panthers)
And then the Rock
So many better cities tbh
The team better be in Oklahoma, considering how they are probably the fist state you think of when you think of football
why not birmingham
Iowa should get a team.
I would like to see the Jacksonville Jaguars to move to London
I would like to see the Houston Texans move to San Antonio.
Toronto would get an nfl team before Austin
Montreal first on the list
Is this real
I could see the NFL going back to St Louis. In my opinion.
oooh yes NFL needs an expansion team bring back St. Louis, San Antonio, Sacremento,Portland teams NFL needs these cities
St. Louis? 😂😅😂😅
San Diego we need our team back
NGL I’d be a rock fan
So would AnalyticsWithChris
The Carolina panthers selected Bryce young
Austin hends
Toronto should get an NFL team at some point!
That’s a good city option!
u should catch some hands boa
The Toronto area is the 6th largest metropolitan area in North America. I just don’t see the NFL encroaching on the CFL. If the NFL did that the cfl would die.
@@MrRoscojones1 they don't support the team they have. They didn't come close to selling out the NFL games played there. There is no NFL calibre stadium.... Toronto would be a horrible choice.
Why Texas tho????
CJ Stroud over Young
Woops, they made the same mistake carolina did
So true. But they drafted Puka probably the biggest steal of the draft. so my fake draft wasn’t a total miss 😂. But if I gave them stroud instead of Young this would be an elite team
@@analyticswithchris can you make a new player pool I want to do a madden 24 franchise!
Wouldnt we need two new teams?
Probably, that’s a lot to explore in one video so we just focused on what it would look like if one team was added
40 TEAMS BY 2040. FIRST MOVE CHARGERS BAQ TO SAN DIEGO.
AFC-NORTH: COLTS, CHIEFS, BENGALS, BROWNS & *CHICAGO LAKERS. -LAKERS can play at Soldier Field and use city flag colors. PAT v JOE shootouts.
AFC-EAST: JETS, PATS, BILLS, RAVENS & STEELERS. -Killer divisional games.
AFC-WEST: RAIDERS, BRONCOS, CHARGERS, *SACRAMENTO CONDORS & UTAH TRAPPERZ. -Rumble in the ROCKIES & AFC battle of CALI.
AFC-SOUTH: TEXANS, TITANS, JAGS, DOLPHINS & *MEMPHIS HOUND DOGS. -In state battles for FLA & TENN.
NFC-NORTH: PACKERS, LIONS, VIKINGS, BEARS & * ST. LOUIS XPLORERS. CHIvSTL classic rival cities.
NFC-EAST: WASHINGTON, EAGLES, GIANTS, COWBOYS & *OKC MAVERICKS. -Jerry Jones won't want a team in Texas but OKC can be their NFC EAST traveling buddies.
NFC-WEST: SEAHAWKS, 49ERS, CARDINALS, RAMS & *PORTLAND SKIPPERS. -Natural northwest battle.
NFC-SOUTH: FALCONS, PANTHERS, SAINTS, BUCS & *BIRMINGHAM RED FOXES.-Perfect in for NFC-SOUTH.
Worst idea I’ve ever heard
Nah he just hates the gikings
PUKA
San Antonio is way better Texas option
😂😊😊😊😊
Dumb name for Austin doesn't feel like Texas to me.
That’s the worst name I’ve ever heard 💀
Portland or Toronto should get a team
Toronto has proven they aren't a football town. Their CFL team draws about 12k and the NFL games were a failure. There's no NFL standard stadium.....
@@brucemorton7787 hmm ok what about Portland or San Diego ?
@@andrewnguyen307 at least, they are American cities
@@brucemorton7787 for sure
Jaguars would be playing in San Diego by then if they relocate there
The Rock is a dumb team sport name. San Antonio is more likely gets a expansion over Austin.
That is a horrible team name almost as bad as texans
