Link to storySteelers | Pittsburgh in the market for a veteran WR? Fri Apr 26, 04:48 PM
Pittsburgh Steelers WR George Pickens figures to be the team's top wideout in 2024, but Sportskeeda's Tony Pauline is reporting that the team has been 'nosing around and would like to trade for a veteran wideout' to replace Diontae Johnson.
Footballguys view: The rumors are that the Steelers will make a move for Broncos WR Courtland Sutton. He had a good connection with QB Russell Wilson and could be looking for a fresh start (in addition to a new contract). |
NFL | Ladd McConkey likely to be drafted early on Friday Fri Apr 26, 04:11 PM
University of Georgia WR Ladd McConkey could be selected as early as No. 34 overall to the New England Patriots in the 2024 NFL Draft on Friday, April 26. Even if the Patriots pass, the Tennessee Titans (No. 38), Washington Commanders (Nos. 36 and 40) and Indianapolis Colts (No. 46) all reportedly have interest in selecting him, according to Sportskeeda's Tony Pauline.
Footballguys view: McConkey has some Cooper Kupp to his game. We wouldn't have been surprised to see him as a first-round pick, but now he's available on Day 2. It shouldn't take too long for him to go off the board. |
Bills | Buffalo eyeing WR at 33? Fri Apr 26, 03:51 PM
University of Texas WR Adonai Mitchell and Florida State WR Keon Coleman are reportedly among the top targets for the Buffalo Bills if they hold onto the first pick of the second round in the 2024 NFL Draft on Friday, April 26.
Footballguys view: The Bills seemed set to select a wide receiver near the end of the first round. Then, they traded back with the Chiefs who selected WR Xavier Worthy (thanks for that Buffalo). Then, they moved completely out of the first round. Now, the Bills could select one of the receivers that is left over from Day 1 of the draft. |

Per Wyche, the Falcons tried to trade back into the first round in an attempt to draft Latu, who was selected by the Indianapolis Colts with the 15th pick.
Link to storyNFL | At least two teams talking trade for Deebo Samuel Fri Apr 26, 02:21 PM
Updating a previous report, San Francisco 49ers WR Deebo Samuel appears more likely to be traded at this point than teammate Brandon Aiyuk. According to Boston Sports Journal's Mike Giardi, the Buffalo Bills and New England Patriots are the two teams showing the most interest in acquiring Samuel - presumably with their selections at the top of the second round.
Footballguys view: Things change pretty quickly around here. Aiyuk and the team want to come to an agreement on a long-term deal, but there was some thought he might be traded during the draft. The 49ers selected Florida WR Ricky Pearsall in the first round of the 2024 NFL draft, so perhaps trading Samuel would make sense. |

Cowboys | Ezekiel Elliott expected to return to Dallas Fri Apr 26, 01:23 PM
Free-agent RB Ezekiel Elliott (Patriots) appears increasingly likely to return to the Dallas Cowboys to complement and help mentor the rookie running back the team is expected to select at some during the 2024 NFL Draft on Friday, April 26.
Footballguys view: No surprise here. Jerry Jones loves Elliott, and the two reunite for another season. We still think the Cowboys draft a running back at some point in the NFL draft. |

Cowboys | Dallas not hiding its love for Jonathon Brooks Fri Apr 26, 01:09 PM
University of Texas RB Jonathon Brooks (knee) is 'a good player' who is 'high, high (on our board),' according to Dallas Cowboys team owner Jerry Jones.
Footballguys view: Brooks is arguably the best back in this class. He's a balanced runner who can keep plays alive after contact. We think the Cowboys draft him and then make him the starter with Ezekiel Elliott there as a veteran backup (if/when signed). |
NFL | Two teams eyed trade-up for Tyler Guyton Fri Apr 26, 12:09 PM

Rams | Matthew Stafford seeking contract revision Fri Apr 26, 10:30 AM
Los Angeles Rams QB Matthew Stafford is seeking a contract revision that would allot him more guaranteed money past the 2024 season.
Footballguys view: We'll see if the Rams oblige. Once thought to be on the verge of retirement, Stafford has another chapter left. In 2025, Stafford is on the books for $50.5 million with $47 million remaining in dead money. There's an out in his contract after that season, and we'll see where his health is at and if the Rams have other ideas. |
