Not even Kristoffer Reitan's caddie figured he'd get into the Cadillac Championship. Tim Poyser looked at the position of his boss on the alternate list for this weeks $20-million, no-cut, 72-man field event and took a calculated risk, flying home to Edinburgh, Scotland. Hopefully, he got his fix of haggis and checked his mail while he was there because on Thursday, Reitan was the last man to get into the field when Jake Knapp withdrew. After a bogey-free 4-under 68 at Trump National Doral, the 28-year-old Norwegian finds himself in contention in his first signature event on the PGA Tour tied for sixth at 6-under 138 at the midway point in the Miami suburb of Doral.Poyser eventually caught a flight back but didnt arrive in time for the first round. Reitan was equally surprised at his good fortune. He said he was planning to play a game at Panther National in Palm Beach Gardens, Fla., on Tuesday with fellow Tour pros Rasmus Hojgaard, Marco Penge, and Kris Ventura but instead high-tailed it to Doral to prepare for the possibility of playing when Patrick Cantlay withdrew, citing illness, and he improved to first alternate. Knapp wore a bandage on his left hand on Tuesday and he pulled out of the pro-am on Wednesday. He would be a late scratch on Thursday, about an hour before his tee time, due to a sprained left thumb. Reitan was standing by and stepped into the 12:35 p.m. ET pairing with J.T. Boston.It's been a weird day, Reitan said after shooting 2-under 70. I would prefer to be in the field rather than an alternate. But, yeah, no it's just great to be able to be out here competing in my first signature event.Poyser, who formerly worked in the financial services industry, was back on the bag on Friday. Who caddied for Reitan in the first round? None other than Reitans swing coach, Denny Lucas, who was called into active duty.When he was second alternate he said to me, If hes not back, will you caddie if I do get in? I said, Sure, Lucas recounted to Golfweek. I prefer coaching. I have a lot of respect for caddies. It's difficult work.Reitan entered the week at 48thin the Official World Golf Ranking off of a successful 2025 campaign. He won the 2025 Soudal Open to claim his first DP World Tour titleand finished top 10 in the 2025 DP World Tour eligibility rankingto secure PGA Tour status for the first time. He added another win at the Nedbank Golf Challenge in December.As a rookie, he earned his first top-10 finish on the PGA Tour at the Valero Texas Open (T-10) but rode a hot final-round 65 in foursomes with Ventura, his partner in the team event, to a T-2 finish at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans and moved him into contention to fill the field of 72 based on his FedEx Cup performance.Reitan played half a season (fall 2017) at the University of Texas. He also qualified for the 2018 U.S. Open while still an amateur, becoming the first Norwegian to compete in the U.S. Open.As of now, hes slated to play next weeks opposite-field event, the Myrtle Beach Classic with a full field, a 36-hole cut and purse of $4 million; but this weekend at Doral, Reitan will have a chance to see if he can upgrade to the Truist Championship, another signature event with no-cut, a limited field and a purse of $20 million, and quite possibly much, much more depending on his performance. Reitan is taking advantage of his opportunity and proving the old adage (and tag line for the NY State Lottery) that you have to be in it to win it.This article originally appeared on Golfweek: Kristoffer Reitan's improbable PGA Tour run

Brandon Beane, general manager of then Buffalo Bills, heads off the field at the end of practice at the Buffalo Bills training camp at St. John Fisher University in Pittsford on July 24, 2025. | Tina MacIntyre-Yee/Democrat and Chronicle / USA TODAY NETWORK via Imagn ImagesFor almost 20 years now, the Buffalo Rumblings comments section has been a treasure trove of smart, insightful often hilarious quips from Buffalo Bills fans. Late in my first week on the job, I found two comments on the article I wrote about the Bills 2026 draft being viewed by executives and scouts around the league as modernized thinking that sparked my interest in doing a study. By the way, I welcome these type of discussions in comment sections in future, ones that pose a question that leads to me nerd-ing out and generates an article for the site (making a series from this would be amazing). This particular article was born from a bozzman1106 comment that stated the following:If we look at picks 25-32 over the last 10 years, there have only been 10 players selected in that range that have made a Pro Bowl with 2 of those 8 making it as alternates. Of those 8 players, only 2 have made the Pro Bowl more then once, TJ Watt and TreDavious White. So when people want to complain about not taking a guy at the end of the first round and trading back into the second round, you have a 12.5% chance of selecting a guy at the end of the first round that could make a Pro Bowl.So if I am a GM and I have a chance to do what Beane did and move out of the first while then moving up in rounds 3 and 4, why would you not do that?Then Hornell Fred added a very logical retort:The opening paragraph in Freds comment sent me on a research mission.I assumed the initial 10-year time frame from bozzman1106s comment was 2016 2025 (10 draft classes), so I checked all those 80 picks from No. 25 No. 32 overall to see the results for all of the teams. I counted 12 of 80 picks, which equals 15%, yet bozzman1106s likely did not include TreDavious White or Tyler Linderbaum who were made with trade downs initially made before pick No. 25, which got him to 12.5% (10 out of 80). After the recheck, I realized there can be secondary labels to distinguish how those picks were acquired.Of those 12 overall Pro Bowl selections made over the past 10 drafts at picks No. 25 No. 32, I divided based on whether the selection was an original pick, acquired after a trade down initially outside our late first-round pick range, or acquired after a trade up into it. Original pick Pro Bowlers: (4 of 12, 33%)Packers: DT Kenny ClarkSteelers: EDGE T.J. WattSeahawks: LB Jordyn BrooksRavens: LB Patrick QueenPick acquired with trade down before pick No. 25 (2 of 12, 16.6%)Bills: CB TreDavious WhiteRavens: OC Tyler LinderbaumTrade ups into picks No. 25 No. 32 (6 of 12, 50%)Browns: TE David NjokuRavens: QB Lamar JacksonWashington: EDGE Montez SweatJets: EDGE Jermaine JohnsonJaguars: LB Devin LloydBills: TE Dalton Kincaid Here are the results of the juiciest aspect of this study what did teams get that traded back from those picks between No. 25 and No. 32 over the past 10 years? You know, what the Bills have down twice now since 2024.Turns out there were 19 trade downs by teams that held a pick in that range the past decade.(I did not count prior trades that involved a veteran before the draft, or the 2024 trade between the Broncos and Saints that included Sean Payton.)Those 19 trade downs netted the following collection of 46 players.(Subsequent trade down / ups which used some of the picks acquired in the original trade down were counted.)Of the group of 46, those in bold have been named to a Pro Bowl, even as an alternate.Texans: WR Jayden Higgins + OT Aireontae ErseryRams: TE Terrance Ferguson + QB Ty SimpsonChiefs: OT Josh Simmons + LB Jeffrey BassaBills: DT DeWayne Carter + WR Keon Coleman + IOL Sedrick Van Pran Granger + OT Travis ClaytonJaguars: OT Anton Harrison + DL Tyler LacyTitans: CB Roger McCreary + OT Nicholas Petit-Frere + QB Malik WillisBuccaneers: DE Logan Hall + TE Cade Otton + OT Luke GoedeckeVikings: CB Jeff Gladney + EDGE DJ Wonnum + WR KJ OsbornDolphins: Noah Igbinoghene + Solomon KindleyColts: EDGE Ben Banogu + DB Marvell Tell + WR Michael PittmanSeahawks: S/LB Marquise Blair + WR DK Metcalf + S Ugo Amandi + LB Ben Burr-KirvenRams: S Taylor Rapp + CB David Long + OL Bobby EvansEagles: TE Dallas Goedert + CB Avonte Maddox + RB Miles SandersSeahawks: DL Malik McDowell + DB Delano Hill + S Tedric Thompson + S Mike Tyson + RB Chris CarsonPackers: CB Kevin King + LB/EDGE Vince BiegelSeahawks: OT Germain Ifedi + TE Nick VannettChiefs: DT Chris Jones + OL Parker Ehlinger + CB DJ WhitePretty long list, right?Sticking with the math-based theme of the original comment and Hornell Freds question in response, I then did some quick division myself. Five of 46 equals 10.8%, just under two percentage points lower than the 12.5% of the group of players selected after a team traded up into picks No. 25 No. 32 or just made their original pick in that range in the 10-year sample. Its worth noting, with such a small sample, the percentages move somewhat drastically with each player included. If in my findings, there were only four Pro Bowlers out of 46, that wouldve been 8.6%, and six out of 46 would have equated to 13%. In essence, were splitting hairs here.Technically speaking though, with those late first-round picks over the past decade, teams have been slightly less likely to find a Pro Bowl after trading down from that range than when they traded up into that range or just made an original selection within picks No. 25 No. 32.Also while the Pro Bowl is probably the easiest label to identify a hit, and Im certainly not poking fun at bozzman1106 for using it, we can all agree its not the best identifier for success in the NFL. My longstanding affinity for trading down, one of my core football beliefs, has never centered around a thought that you can get more Pro Bowlers after doing so. Certainly not. By in large, quite naturally, better players are selected earlier in the draft, no question. History screams that. Im a trade-down proponent and clearly Brandon Beane has become one too because of it what it does yield an increased volume of picks, which their collective contributions almost always outweigh the impact of a singular player, and the risk diversification that comes with it. In the trade-down group of this study, the trade-down teams went from picking potentially 17 players (there were two double trade down instances, the Bills in 2024 and Seahawks in 2017) to 46 players. Thats the massive difference. Where do you land on this? Are you #TeamTradeDown, #TeamTradeUp, or #TeamStayPut?
