Eze has been Memphis’ starting left tackle for the past two seasons. At 6-foot-8 and 315-pounds, Eze has outrageous size for the position and proven himself every bit as dominant as his frame suggests, at least at the Group of Five level. Eze was a four-star recruit for Memphis a few years ago, one of the best they have had in recent years. It’s unclear whether Eze will use this transfer opportunity, given his ideal size and starting experience, to leap up to a more enticing Power Five program looking for OL help.

The Cowboys are in need of a viable WR2 opposite CeeDee Lamb, while the Packers are simply looking for a true WR1 to pair with their slew of productive receivers. Egbuka is a fourth-year prospect who broke out in 2022 to the tune of 74-1,151-10. Injuries limited him to 10 games in 2023, and he saw his production dip as a result, but he closed out his career with 81 catches for 1,011 yards and 10 touchdowns. At 6-foot-1 and 202 pounds, Egbuka has the size to play on the outside but played 73 percent of his snaps from the slot. He’d make for a solid addition to either team, but with Jayden Reed heavily occupying the slot in Green Bay, it’s hard to know how Egbuka would factor into the Packers’ offense if they selected him.

This doesn’t come as much of a surprise. The former No. 1 overall pick from the 2022 NFL Draft has totaled 10 or more sacks in each of his last two seasons and has 24 sacks to his name overall. Walker has shown continued development as a premier pass rusher in the league and has ranked 22nd or higher amongst EDGE rushers in quarterback pressures in 2023 and 2024, per PFF. He’ll now be under contract through the 2026 season, but it wouldn’t be surprising if we saw him sign a long-term extension before entering his contract year.

Those holding dynasty stock in Tyrone Tracy may want to look away. Stapleton believes the Giants will be “taking advantage of the depth of talent” at the position in this year’s draft, which could create immediate competition for Tracy, who rushed for 192-839-5 as a rookie while adding another 38-284-1 through the air. The second-year back was taken in the fifth round of last year’s draft and didn’t take long to cement himself as the Giants’ top back, finishing the year with a 25 percent opportunity share while leading all Giants backs with 246 opportunities. Running back Devin Singletary remains on the team after signing a three-year, $16.5 million contract last season, but he’s not expected to make much of an impact next season. Ideally, any interest the Giants may have in a rookie running back will be as added depth behind Tracy, but he will be 27 when his rookie contract expires. Adding a talented back who is several years younger could make a lot of sense in the long term.

According to Schefter, based on things people told him, the Browns were “likely to go quarterback,” but only if Miami’s Cam Ward was available. Schefter then adds that Ward “isn’t gonna be there at No. 2,” hinting that the former Hurricane will be selected by the Titans with the No. 1 pick in the coming weeks. It’s worth noting that this is nothing more than speculation, but it’s speculation from one of the most plugged-in guys in the league, who also believes the Browns value Hunter’s ability as a receiver more than his ability on defense. Regardless of where he’s taken, there’s little doubt that Hunter is the most talented player in the draft. If he does go to the Browns, they’ll be adding an impact player who should make his presence felt on both sides of the ball, even if the team deploys him more as an offensive player.

ESPN’s Mike Reiss was the first to report the move. The former Patriots wide receiver is reportedly joining the team as a personnel analyst but had worked as a receivers coach for the 49ers (2019-2021) and most recently with the Dolphins (2022-2024). Welker’s familiarity with GM Adam Peters and offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury likely played a role in the move and gives Welker a chance to expand his resumé as a coach/front office member.

The Raiders won’t be using the No. 6 overall pick on Ewers, but it’s easy to envision them using their No. 37 overall pick on the Texas product on Day 2 of the draft in hopes of developing him into a franchise QB in the coming years. Ewers was the No. 1 prospect in the nation when he enrolled at Ohio State in 2021 and moved on to Texas ahead of the 2022 season. In his three seasons with the Longhorns, Ewers threw for 9,128-68-24 while completing 64.9 percent of his passes. With Geno Smith already under contract for the next three seasons, Ewers would have plenty of time to sit and learn the pro game before taking the reins in his second or third season.

Between this quote and the one-year, $10 million fully guaranteed contract the Rams gave Atwell this offseason, it seems fair to assume he’ll be a key player in the offense next season. McVay said he hasn’t “done a good enough job of utilizing” the former second-round pick through the first four years of his career, but it sounds like that could change in 2025. Puka Nacua and Davante Adams will still operate as the team’s top two receivers, but the Rams have been one of the most 11-personnel-heavy teams since 2021, per PFF, which means Atwell should see plenty of time on the field if McVay sticks to his word. Atwell has shown flashes over the last two seasons with the increased workloads he has received. Since 2023, he has caught 81 passes for 1,045 and three touchdowns, averaging 12.9 YPR. It’s a long offseason, which means there’s plenty that can change between now and training camp, but Atwell could prove to be a very strong late-round pick in early fantasy drafts.

Griffin was a third-round pick by the Seahawks back in 2017 and played the first four years of his career in Seattle. The veteran corner has since bounced around to the Jaguars, Texans and Panthers before landing in Minnesota on a one-year contract last season. Griffin started three of the 17 games he appeared in for the Vikings in 2024, totaling 41 tackles, two interceptions and six pass breakups while earning a PFF coverage grade of 62.4. The 435 pass coverage snaps he played were his most since 2021. Griffin hasn’t started more than seven games since 2022 and would likely be used in a depth role wherever he signs for next season.

Revel is a projected first-round pick who is also recovering from a torn ACL. According to Pelissero, Revel will also have a “combine medical recheck” while visiting with the Colts in Indy. Revel underwent reconstructive surgery on his ACL in October, with his doctor saying he expected him to be fully cleared by the summer. Revel forced two interceptions in three games last season and earned a PFF coverage grade of 83.5 or higher in 2023 and 2024.

Carter had breakfast with head coach Brian Daboll on Sunday and will have an official top-30 visit with the team on Thursday. The Penn State product is widely regarded as the top pass rusher in the league and is a virtual lock to hear his name called amongst the top five picks in the draft, with some believing he could go as high as No. 2 overall. The Giants hold the No. 3 pick in this year’s draft and could benefit from adding another pass rusher to play opposite Kayvon Thibodeaux, who is entering the fourth year of his rookie deal.
