Bengals | Seven rookies under contract Mon May 17, 01:06 PM
Cincinnati Bengals fourth-round draft choices DE Cameron Sample, DT Tyler Shelvin and OT D'Ante Smith, fifth-round draft choice PK Evan McPherson, sixth-round draft choices C Trey Hill and RB Chris Evans and seventh-round draft choice DE Wyatt Hubert signed four-year contracts with the Bengals Monday, May 17. Financial terms were not disclosed.
| Footballguys view: Evans is a hard-charging running back from Michigan who is looking to make the roster as a reserve runner. During his college career for the Wolverines, Evans only started six time in 42 games. He seems like a player who could have a better pro career than he did a college one. Evans is patient as a runner and has burst to and through the hole. As a receiver, Evans is a "catch and go" threat and can make defenders miss in space. We'll watch him in deep dynasty formats. |

Rams | Four draft picks signed by LAR Sun May 16, 08:57 AM
The Los Angeles Rams announced the signings of RB Jake Funk, WR Ben Skowronek, DE Earnest Brown and LB Chris Garrett to rookie contracts Sunday, May 16. Terms of the deals were not disclosed.
| Footballguys view: Funk is a hard-charging running back with some burst to break off chunk plays. He suffered an ACL injury to the same knee in 2018 and 2019 so durability is a concern. Funk will work primarily as a special teams player but if given the opportunity there is some natural skill that could be used on offense. |

| Footballguys view: Ford has had a cup of coffee in the league. He's strong after the catch and his experience might get him a shot if he impresses in this tryout. |

Link to story Vikings | Three draft picks reach deals Thu May 13, 09:36 PM
Minnesota Vikings fifth-round draft choice WR Ihmir Smith-Marsette, fifth-round draft choice TE Zach Davidson and sixth-round draft choice DT Jaylen Twyman agreed to terms on four-year contracts with the Vikings Thursday, May 13, according to sources. Financial terms were not disclosed.
| Footballguys view: Smith-Marsette has a nice size/speed combination and can get by defenders with ease. He has "late hands" when passes are incoming, so he doesn't tip off cornerbacks that he's going to make a catch. Smith-Marsette is buried on the depth chart now, but he could develop into a no.3 receiver for the Vikings in the future. Watch him in dynasty formats. |

Cowboys | Four picks agree to terms Thu May 13, 09:26 PM

Financia terms were not disclosed.
| Footballguys view: Fehoko is a downfield threat as evidenced by his school record 23.6 yards per catch in 2019. Over 77 percent of his passes went for a first down or a touchdown during his college career at Stanford. Fehoko can run by defenders and is physical at the catch point. We'll watch him in dynasty formats in that high-powered Cowboys offense. |

Football Team | Nine draft picks sign contracts Thu May 13, 08:54 PM
Washington Football Team second-round draft choice OT Samuel Cosmi, third-round draft choices CB Benjamin St-Juste and WR Dyami Brown, fourth-round draft choice TE John Bates, fifth-round draft choice S Darrick Forrest Jr., sixth-round draft choice LS Camaron Cheeseman and seventh-round draft choices DE William Bradley-King, DE Shaka Toney and WR Dax Milne signed four-year contracts with Washington Thursday, May 13. Financial terms were not disclosed.
| Footballguys view: Brown is a player Fantasy GMs should monitor as he goes through training camp with Washington. He can turn defenders around and has the speed to take the top off the defense to provide a big-play target down the field for his quarterback. Milne was a steady receiver in college and a favorite target of no.2 overall draft pick Zach Wilson (Jets). We'll see how his skill set translates to the pro level. |
Bears | Twelve college FAs joins Bears Thu May 13, 08:15 PM

Simmons (West Virginia) and S Lawrence White (Iowa State) signed with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers Thursday, May 13. Terms of the contracts were not disclosed.

Chiefs | KC signs rest of draft class Thu May 13, 07:29 PM
Kansas City Chiefs second-round draft choice C Creed Humphrey, fourth-round draft choice DE Joshua Kaindoh, fifth-round draft choice TE Noah Gray and fifth-round draft choice WR Cornell Powell signed four-year contracts with the Chiefs Thursday, May 13. Financial terms were not disclosed.
| Footballguys view: The player we are most interested in here is Powell. He may be a no.2 receiver for the Chiefs someday, a role that would have plenty of fantasy value. Powell has great ball skills and can track passes down field with ease. He needs to clean up his route running but the skill is there for him to be a no.2 in the league. Gray is a player we'll monitor in dynasty formats, and his skill set is that of an H-back/Tight End who can contribute as a receiver and as a blocker. |

Houston Texans TE Brevin Jordan and DT Roy Lopez both signed four-year rookie contracts Wednesday, May 12. Financial terms of the contracts weren't disclosed.
| Footballguys view: Jordan is an athletic tight end who can get open down the seam. He can create large windows for his quarterback and is a player we'll monitor closely as he potentially moves to the top of the Texans depth chart at the tight end position. |

Jets | Five players trying out Sun May 9, 02:14 PM
Free-agent WRs Trevor Davis (Washington), WR Steven Mitchell Jr. (Texans) and WR Damion Willis (Jaguars) participated in the New York Jets rookie minicamp on a tryout basis. Undrafted free-agent TE Daniel Crawford (Northern Illinois) and DT Mustafa Johnson (Colorado) also tried out for the team.
| Footballguys view: Willis is the player to watch here. Undrafted out of Troy in 2019, Willis looked like a player to monitor in deep dynasty formats with the Bengals. He had two starts as a rookie but did not make the team in 2020. Instead, Willis was picked up by the Browns and then released with a failed physical designation. He signed with the Jaguars practice squad late last year and spent about a month on the team. We'll see if he can impress enough at this tryout to earn a chance at a spot with the Jets in the offseason. |

| Footballguys view: Yeboah is a player we'll monitor in deep dynasty formats. He was a move tight end at Ole Miss and can create mismatches against linebackers and safeties. Yeboah had a good week of practice at the Senior Bowl earlier this year where he stood out in the "F" position. If he further develops there could be something there for the Jets. |
