Steelers | No decision on Najee Harris' option Mon Apr 22, 06:38 PM
Pittsburgh Steelers RB Najee Harris' fifth-year option will be decided on after the 2024 NFL Draft, according to general manager Omar Khan.
| Footballguys view: From a fantasy perspective, sharing the workload with Jaylen Warren isn't ideal, but it hasn't kept Harris from producing. In 2023, Harris had the best season of his career in terms of yards per carry as he rushed 255 times for 1,035 yards -- a 4.1 yards per carry average -- and he scored eight touchdowns. He remains a solid fantasy RB2. |

49ers | San Francisco wants Brandon Aiyuk long-term Mon Apr 22, 03:12 PM
San Francisco 49ers WR Brandon Aiyuk is seeking a new contract, and general manager John Lynch told reporters Monday, April 22, they want him with the team for the long-term.
| Footballguys view: Aiyuk, who is currently set to make $14.1 million this seaso, is coming off a strong season where he recorded 75 receptions for 1,342 yards and seven touchdownss while serving as an invaluable cog in the 49ers' explosive offense. Assuming he remains with the team, Aiyuk should be viewed as a fantasy WR2. |

Jets | Zach Wilson traded to Denver Mon Apr 22, 02:32 PM
New York Jets QB Zach Wilson was traded to the Denver Broncos for a 2024 sixth-round pick in the NFL draft, according to sources Monday, April 22. The Jets also are sending a 2024 seventh-round pick along with Wilson and are expected to pay some of his $5.5 million salary.
| Footballguys view: Wilson now finds himself on a team seeking options under center following their split with Russell Wilson. As NFL.com notes, because of that divorce, Denver doesn't have the budget to spend on a confirmed starter at quarterback, leading the Broncos to take a flier on adding Zach Wilson to a quarterbacks room that includes Jarrett Stidham and Ben DiNucci. They'll likely add another in this week's NFL Draft. |

Colts | Colts open to trade in first round Sun Apr 21, 04:03 PM
Indianapolis Colts general manager Chris Ballard is open to trading up or down in the first round of the 2024 NFL Draft, but the latter scenario is more likely, he said on Friday, April 19.
| Footballguys view: Like many teams, the Colts could move up, move down, or stay put with their pick in the first round. Right now, we've got them looking for a cornerback with the no.15 overall pick. Quinyon Mitchell (Toledo) is one of the most commonly mocked players to the Colts. |
NFL | Two visits for Devontez Walker Sun Apr 21, 03:54 PM
North Carolina WR Devontez Walker had visits with the Kansas City Chiefs and Las Vegas Raiders ahead of the 2024 NFL draft, according to sources Sunday, April 21.
| Footballguys view: Walker has talent, but he was a bit disappointing during the week of practice for the Senior Bowl. Scouts see him as a mid-round pick with upside. Walker has a great size/speed combination, but he needs to refine his route-running ability to maximize his potential in the pros. |
Jets | Jets prefer Big 3 WRs over Brock Bowers? Sun Apr 21, 03:35 PM
The New York Jets may prefer WRs Marvin Harrison Jr., Malik Nabers and Rome Odunze if they fall over TE Brock Bowers, according to ESPN's Richi Cimini on Sunday, April 21. 'Here's what we're hearing: The Jets could pick a wide receiver in the unlikely event that one of the top three falls to 10. They're also interested in offensive tackles, with Notre Dame's Joe Alt, Oregon State's Taliese Fuaga and Washington's Troy Fautanu thought to be their top preferences. Alt probably will be off the board, so the choice could come down to Bowers versus their OT2,' said Cimini.
| Footballguys view: Bowers to the Jets is commonly mocked, but it may not happen. They could move up in the draft for one of the big-3 at the wide receiver position. With the no.10 overall pick, guys like Marvin Harrison Jr (Ohio State), Malik Nabors (LSU), and Rome Odunze (Washington) could be off the board. |
Texans | Dare Ogunbowale re-signed Sun Apr 21, 11:51 AM
The Houston Texans re-signed free-agent RB Dare Ogunbowale to a one-year contract Sunday, April 21, according to a source. Financial terms of the deal were not released.
| Footballguys view: Ogunbowale is a solid veteran who can give the Texans backfield depth and special teams help. Joe Mixon is the top back on the depth chart, and Dameon Pierce will serve as his primary backup. Ogunbowale is compete for a spot on the depth chart behind those two. |

The Denver Broncos have been contacted by several NFL teams regarding the availability of WR Courtland Sutton, according to multiple sources. However, they have no plans to trade him, even though he has been skipping voluntary workouts because of his contract situation.
| Footballguys view: Well, they say they're not trading Sutton. That's what they have to say, but if Sutton wants a new contract then perhaps he's signaling that he doesn't want to be in Denver any longer. We could see a Sutton trade on draft night. |

Patriots | Pats 'prepared' to take QB Sun Apr 21, 04:35 AM
The New England Patriots 'are prepared' to take a quarterback at No. 3 overall in the 2024 NFL Draft and are 'high' on both LSU QB Jayden Daniels and North Carolina QB Drake Maye, per source on Saturday, April 20.
| Footballguys view: The Patriots are in a unique position. They need a franchise quarterback, but they have a couple of teams (Vikings, Broncos) who could be hot and heavy for that no3 overall pick. They could move back in the first round, collect a haul for the top-3 pick, and set themselves up for the future. With the draft getting closer, the Patriots are certainly putting out the message they will be taking a quarterback. |

Updating a previous report, LSU QB Jayden Daniels has 'real' interest in the Las Vegas Raiders and is 'intrigued' by the Minnesota Vikings, per sources on Saturday, April 20.
| Footballguys view: Daniels may not want to play for the Commanders, even though their GM Adam Peters may love his skill set. If Daniels forces a trade, the Vikings or Raiders could move up to no.2 overall - for a huge price. We'll see if the Commanders take Daniels and then trade him, or if they start looking elsewhere. |
