  • DAL Linebacker #11

    Parsons is present at the Cowboys’ voluntary workouts as he enters the last year of his contract and looks to sign a lucrative extension. The 25-year-old says he’s “still got to learn the playbook”, but he “might not be on the field part of it.” Negotiations between the Cowboys and Parsons are still at an impasse after Jerry Jones did not go through Parsons’ agent for contract talk earlier in the month. The two-time first-team All-Pro and four-time Pro Bowler indicates he will walk through new head coach Brian Schottenheimer’s playbook, but may not be participating in on-field work. This could become a hold-in situation for the Cowboys.
  • SF Running Back #23
    Kyle Shanahan said McCaffrey was “healthy and doing great” earlier this month, but it’s still notable that McCaffrey is going through OTAs without any restrictions. “As soon as that injury happened in Buffalo, I was kind of. . . . This was my goal, to not miss a day of OTAs, be back, ready to go, with nothing hindering me, and that’s where I’m at,” McCaffrey told reporters. We know it’s going to take one blurb a day of McCaffrey being healthy before anyone believes the 49ers after last offseason, but we’re off to a strong start before the draft. McCaffrey should be an RB1 — if healthy — in 2025 fantasy drafts.
  • PIT Running Back #30
    Warren signed his restricted free agent tender today. It’ll be his final year before free agency. Mike Tomlin said earlier today that he “certainly feel[s] comfortable” with Warren entering the season as the No. 1 running back on the depth chart. It remains to be seen if the Steelers add at running back in the draft, and thus Warren’s fantasy status will hang in the balance until Saturday or so. Warren will likely get the first crack either way, but if the Steelers draft someone in the first two days of the draft, it will be a signal that we should treat Warren as more likely to wind up in a committee by October or so.
  • MIA Cornerback #5
    “There’s a lot of layers that would need to be worked out with a player of his magnitude... but you would never eliminate the possibility of adding a total stud,” McVay continued. Both McVay and Rams GM Les Snead seemed open to the idea, but as they’re well aware, adding Ramsey also might mean committing a new contract to him as well as winning a bidding war for his services. The Raiders and Falcons were tied to Ramsey by Jonathan Jones last week, and it wouldn’t be surprising if Ramsey was dealt on draft day.
  • PIT Wide Receiver #14
    “I think they’re going to be exciting for everyone to watch,” Khan added. Pickens may yet execute a hold in entering the final year of his rookie contract, as has been rumored by team beat writers for a few months. But this does throw some cold water on the idea that they’d move Pickens to get back into the second or third round of the draft on Friday.
  • PIT Running Back #30
    “He got hampered by injury some in 2024. He appears to be ready to answer that. I know he’s really excited about his opportunity. I don’t think myself or anyone within the question his talents in regards to managing the ability to manage potentially that role,” Tomlin continued. The Steelers have brought in nine different running backs for top-30 visits and certainly appear likely to replace Najee Harris in the draft. But it does appear like they don’t have a problem turning the role over to Warren to start the season, and the back that Pittsburgh selects will likely be in the third round or later as the Steelers don’t have a second-round pick on account of the DK Metcalf trade.
  • TEN Quarterback #8
    Huge, if true. “He’s still developing. He’s had some good moments,” Borgonzi continued. “Like any other QB, he’s still learning.” Levis was recently in a list of potentially available players on rookie contracts that Adam Schefter pushed on Monday and it wouldn’t be surprising if the Titans dealt him. This is a stark departure from president of football operations Chad Brinker saying Levis had a chance to compete for the starting job in March, obviously.
  • TEN General Manager
    Well, they’re taking Cam Ward barring something completely unexpected over the next 48 hours. It doesn’t seem to be any more complicated than that.
  • ATL Quarterback #18
    It’s a bit of a surprise given his onerous trade/contract situation, but Cousins has always been portrayed as a team-first player and this is clearly an action that one of those would take. NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo added that “even some in the building” were surprised. Cousins’ availability in a trade is one of the top veteran storylines to watch as we approach the NFL Draft, and the team did just sign Easton Stick yesterday. If Cousins remains with the Falcons, he’d just be Michael Penix’s backup.
  • BUF Running Back #4
    “I mean, it’s voluntary,” Beane told reporters. "...Try not to look too far into it.” Beane said he didn’t want to assume Cook is skipping over his contract demands, since he hadn’t heard that directly. But that is the obvious inference. It’s possible Cook will join the “hold in” watch in August when training camp starts.
