We've heard they have done the most work on Oregon QB Bo Nix, and he's likely to be available later in the first round. We'll see tonight if the Giants go quarterback or if they go with a player like LSU WR Malik Nabors. |

Carolina Panthers WR Diontae Johnson informed reporters on Tuesday, April 23, that head coach Dave Canales told him shortly after his trade from the Pittsburgh Steelers that he would play 'X' (split end) and be the first read on the majority of passing plays in 2024.
| Footballguys view: Yahoo's Matt Harmon, also the creator of the Reception Perception method for assessing the receiver position, reminds us that Carolina's wideouts could not get open last season. Harmon also notes that is Johnson's specialty. Johnson, who finished last year as WR45, currently resides at WR41 on the Footballguys 2024 Draft Rankings. He is going in that same spot in best-ball drafts at Underdog and BestBall 10s. |

Link to story Chiefs | KC keeping the faith in Kadarius Toney Tue Apr 23, 12:21 PM
Kansas City Chiefs WR Kadarius Toney is 'probably our most talented wideout now,' according to general manager Brett Veach.'He is probably our most talented wideout now. It doesn't do anyone any good unless you stay healthy. But the kid has always worked hard here for us and I know he's been down there with (Patrick Mahomes) and I think it's a matter of him staying healthy and I think if he can do that, he can really do a lot of great things in this offense. People around the building like him and it's the injury bug and hopefully he gets some luck on his side and he can stay healthy and be the player that he was in Florida and the player that we've seen in spurts here,' Veach said.
| Footballguys view: Fantasy managers who took a chance on Toney as their WR5 or 6 last season came up short. Will they invest again this year? It's unlikely. Those who haven't already been burned might do worse with their final picks in best-ball drafts, but in terms of redraft, it's hard to see Toney as draftworthy. |
