- Giants - Leonard Williams DL is going to sign his FT tender - however, he is also going to file a grievance to be paid as a DE rather than a DT - over $1 million in difference
- Jaguars are getting too greedy, there is a report that Raiders were offering their later 1st round pick, #19, but the Jags want the #12 instead.
- Rumor is deal between Miami and Detroit is close - #5 and other picks for Lion's #3. Dolphins didn't want to trade the #5 but for some reason wanted to get above the Giants - some feel this may be for OT, not Qb
- Vegas odds have flipped - yesterday they had Hebert going before Tua, now they are saying Tua will go first.
- Peyton Manning is not expecting to get into coaching in the future
- Trubisky is saying his shoulder is now 100% healed from last years injury
- Rumor - Falcons attempted to move from #16 to #2 for Chase Young - but no deal could be reached
- Bills - exercise the 5th year option for Cb Tre'Davious White
- Chiefs earlier this off season only had $177 in cap space, yes you saw this correct. But they have redone Sammy Watkins deal, and have now restructured OG Laurent Duvernay-Tardif's deal for an additional $1.475 million to add to what they saved for Sammy's deal. They need between $3 - $5 million to sign all their draft picks
- Rumor had Steelers sending Wr JuJu Smith-Schuster to the 49ers - JuJu is in the last year of his deal - but Steelers are denying this now

Bengals have turned down offers from Miami for Burrows
I also think what we have heard may be true- Dolphins may move to #3 but it is NOT for Qb, it could be for OT
There could be a real chance Jags are looking at Tua at #9. That would be very interesting at that point.

Now rumors more teams have jumped in to make a deal with Detroit. Which is exactly what Detroit was hoping for, as they have too many holes and could use more picks

OKay here is a fun story, coming from some local Miami sports folks and PFT - Miami is working to get the #3 pick, but don't want to throw in the #5. IF they get the #3, the rumor is they will turn the #3 and the #5 to Cincinnati to get to #1!

I have no idea if Cincy would go for it, but I damn well would. You could get Tua or Hebert at QB and potentially get a Stud Def. player like Okudah or Simmons.
