Titans | Carnell Tate agrees to terms Sat May 9, 01:10 PM
Tennessee Titans WR Carnell Tate has agreed to terms on a four-year, $51.1 million deal, which includes a $33,649,028 million signing bonus on Friday, May 8.
| Footballguys view: Tate should be a starter very early in his career and could turn into a true #1 for Cam Ward, which would make this contract one of the biggest bargains of the 2026 draft. We'll be monitoring to see if he can get on the field with Calvin Ridley and the starting 11 on offense in Week 1. |
Bengals | Colbie Young signs rookie deal Sat May 9, 01:10 PM
Cincinnati Bengals fourth-round draft choice WR Colbie Young signed a four-year contract with the Bengals Friday, May 8. Financial terms were not disclosed.
| Footballguys view: Young's game is reminiscent of former Bengal Auden Tate, who played with Joe Burrow early in the quarterback's pro career. If Andrei Iosivas leaves in free agency next year, Young's huge catch radius and ball skills make him a good candidate to back up Tee Higgins, who has missed at least two games in each of the last three seasons. |
Browns | Four-year deal for Taylen Green Sat May 9, 01:10 PM
Cleveland Browns sixth-round draft choice QB Taylen Green signed a four-year contract with the Browns Friday, May 8. Financial terms were not disclosed.
| Footballguys view: Green is raw as a pocket quarterback, but his size, athleticism, and arm talent give him a high ceiling even though it is on a very small chance to hit. At least he is in an organization where he could get a chance to play soon if he shows promise, given the team's lack of a long-term answer at quarterback. Green could also move to wide receiver if he busts as a quarterback. He has a similar size/speed profile to Terrelle Pryor, who once upon a time had a 1000 yard season for Cleveland as a wide receiver after coming into the league as a quarterback for the Raiders. |
Browns | Cleveland signs Denzel Boston Sat May 9, 01:10 PM
Cleveland Browns second-round draft choice WR Denzel Boston signed a four-year contract with the Browns Friday, May 8. Financial terms were not disclosed.
| Footballguys view: Boston has the inside track to become the Browns starting "X" receiver early on in his rookie deal. He's a great ball winner on contested catches, but his straight line speed and play strength will be average at best in the NFL and limit his fantasy impact, in addition to the team's issues at quarterback and on offense in general. |
Bears | Zavion Thomas signs rookie deal Sat May 9, 01:10 PM
Chicago Bears third round draft choice WR Zavion Thomas signed a four-year contract with the Bears Friday, May 8. Financial terms were not disclosed.
| Footballguys view: Thomas wasn't as highly regarded by draft analysts as he was by Ben Johnson and the Bears. That makes him intriguing in dynasty rookie drafts, along with the possibility that Thomas gets some reps at running back, where he looked natural in limited duty at LSU. |
49ers | Four-year deal for Kaelon Black Sat May 9, 01:10 PM
San Francisco 49ers third-round draft choice RB Kaelon Black signed a four-year contract with the 49ers Friday, May 8. Financial terms were not disclosed.
| Footballguys view: Kyle Shanahan can never have enough running backs, apparently. Black is a try hard runner who is not the most athletically gifted, but will be a dependable assignment-sound back. We'll be monitoring 49ers news to learn whether Black, 2025 fifth round pick Jordan James, or 2024 fourth round pick Isaac Guerendo is the first in line for touches if Christian McCaffrey misses time. |
49ers | De'Zhaun Stribling inks deal Sat May 9, 01:10 PM
San Francisco 49ers second-round draft choice WR De'Zhaun Stribling signed a four-year contract with the 49ers Friday, May 8. Financial terms were not disclosed.
| Footballguys view: Stribling has been one of the most hotly debated draft picks after the 49ers took him with the first pick of the second day. He could have more fantasy value than anticipated if the 49ers use his blocking ability to bring him in motion as a "wham" blocker from the flanker position, where he can also release into routes through gaps to create mismatches a la Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua. He's probably underrated in dynasty rookie drafts. |
Patriots | Jam Miller signs rookie contract Sat May 9, 01:10 PM
New England Patriots seventh-round draft choice RB Jam Miller signed a four-year contract with the Patriots Friday, May 8. Financial terms were not disclosed.
| Footballguys view: In a best case scenario, Miller could follow the career path of Benjarvus Green-Ellis, another hard-nosed runner between the tackles who carved out a role for himself in the Patriots offense after being added as an undrafted free agent. |
Steelers | Three draft picks sign their rookie deals Sat May 9, 01:10 PM
The Pittsburgh Steelers signed WR Kaden Wetjen, DE Gabriel Rubio, and S Robert Spears-Jennings to their rookie contracts. Terms of the deals were not disclosed.
| Footballguys view: Wetjen is listed at wide receiver, but he was drafted for his potential contributions as a return specialist. The Steelers will attempt to develop him as a wide receiver and manufactured touch player, but he only has value in return yardage leagues. |

Link to story Colts | Shane Steichen non-committal on Anthony Richardson Fri May 8, 03:05 PM
Indianapolis Colts head coach Shane Steichen told reporters, 'We'll see how it goes' with Anthony Richardson potentially competing for the backup quarterback job.
| Footballguys view: Things change quickly around here. It wasn't that long ago that Richardson was seen as a potential franchise quarterback, and now he's in a battle for the backup job behind Daniel Jones. Riley Leonard is likely to be the no.2 quarterback for the Colts, and he certainly would be if/when the Colts trade Richardson. |
