Per Reid, the team views him " as an ideal complementary WR2 to Garrett Wilson.” Although the Jets are doing their homework on quarterback prospects, some reports indicate that they are not interested in drafting a quarterback in the first round. Reid adds to that idea, telling readers not to be surprised if the Jets refrain from using any of their three picks in the Nos. 1-33 range on a quarterback. The Jets “are expected to be aggressive in boosting their wide receivers room.”

Miller says the Raiders’ No. 1 overall pick will be Indiana QB Fernando Mendoza. The Raiders will then use their early-season-round pick to “support” their rookie quarterback. He notes that Washington WR Denzel Boston has been “connected” to the Raiders already. Miller’s colleague, Ryan McFadden chimes in to say that reuniting Mendoza with Indiana WR Elijah Sarratt “would also be ideal.”

Stribling, a five-year college player, ran a 4.36-second 40 at the NFL Scouting Combine. He caught a career-high 55 passes while producing 811 yards and six touchdowns in his final college season. He spent two seasons apiece at Washington State and Oklahoma State before heading to Ole Miss. His speed and size (6'2/207) will intrigue some front offices.

He will meet with the Panthers today and the other two teams next week. Joly has already had top-30 visits with the Bills, Broncos and Chiefs. Joly, 21, was an efficient player at both UConn (2022-2023) and NC State (2024-2025). He caught 47-of-66 targets for 468 yards and seven touchdowns last year, leading his team in both targets and receptions. The Athletic’s Dane Brugler ranks him fifth in the 2026 rookie class, positionally.

Per NBC Sports’ Pro Football Talk’s Mike Florio, Garrett’s bonus is fully guaranteed, but Garrett must still earn it. To do so, Garrett “must participate in 84.375 percent of the offseason workout sessions, participate in all minicamps, participate in all OTA days, and timely report to training camp.” Garrett is set to make an average of $40 million per year, but potentially giving up $1 million is still a bit surprising. The front office restructured his contract earlier this offseason, generating trade speculation. The team has publicly rejected the idea that Garrett would be traded. It is too early to say if Garrett’s absence actually matters — he can still hit the 84.375 percent mark — but his early absence is worth noting. Stay tuned.

The workout will take place at Arizona State. Tyson is currently projected as a first-round pick. The former Sun Devil missed three games last year due to a recurring right hamstring injury. He then reportedly suffered another hamstring injury while training for the NFL Scouting Combine. Some reports indicate that the most recent hamstring injury is in his left leg. He broke his collarbone in 2024 and tore his ACL, MCL and PCL in 2022. Health concerns are the biggest knock on the talented, young player. Tyson has a chance to solidify his status as a first-round pick with next week’s workout.

Mauigoa attended Combine Rechecks today to undergo additional imaging on a minor back issue that caused discomfort late last season. Per Garafolo, Mauigoa visited with teams possessing draft picks in the top third of the first round after the recheck request was made in early March. He takes this as a sign of Mauigoa’s confidence that “any concerns would be satisfied” by the recheck. It appears as though Mauigoa is all good and has a chance to be drafted early in the first round later this month.

Hunter is recovering from season-ending knee surgery that cut his rookie season short. Liam Coen told reporters a few weeks ago that Hunter was “well ahead of where he’s supposed to be.” That’s a good sign, but it does sound like the Jags will be ramping Hunter up slowly during the offseason. That could prevent him from expanding his role as a receiver early in the regular season, though training camp will be more telling on that front. For now, fantasy managers should take a cautious approach with the NFL’s only two-way player.

Boston has been a busy man during the draft cycle, taking trips to San Francisco, Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Miami, Vegas, and now Carolina. As ESPN’s Field Yates notes, the Panthers may be targeting Boston for his history with Washington head coach Jedd Fisch. Tetarioa McMillan played under Fisch at Arizona and went on to win Offensive Rookie of the Year with the Panthers. Boston went for 881 yards and 11 scores on 62 grabs last year. After a brief appearance in the playoffs, the Panthers currently hold the No. 19 pick.

Sadiq will potentially be the top tight end off the board in this year’s draft; he is a candidate to go at any point in the first round. The athletic 21-year-old would fit in as a key pass-catcher for a Browns team that could use help anywhere on offense, but Harold Fannin Jr. is the current incumbent at the position. A dual-TE offense with Sadiq and Fannin is possible and the Browns are at least doing their due diligence on the matter. Cleveland holds picks No. 6 and No. 24 in the draft.
