S. Darnold - QB

NYJ

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports the Jets have received "real interest" in Sam Darnold.

Rapoport said the team would "complete their evaluations of the top QBs in the NFL Draft before making any decisions" on what to do with Darnold. All signs point to the Jets trading Darnold in the coming weeks. The Patriots and Washington have expressed some interest in acquiring Darnold in hopes that Adam Gase did not permanently break the once-promising QB. Rapoport said the Jets are in no hurry to deal Darnold, who could be left in career limbo for at least the next two months.

A. Robinson - WR

CHI

ESPN's Jamison Hensley reports the "expectation is Baltimore won’t pursue a No. 1 wide receiver like Allen Robinson or Kenny Golladay."

For fantasy purposes, Golladay and Robinson avoiding the Ravens is certainly for the best. The team's low-volume passing offense wouldn't offer the sort of opportunity that has made Golladay and Robinson consistent fantasy producers. In 2020, Ravens receivers ranked last in catches (137) and receiving yards (1,729). Hensley said Baltimore could pursue "one or two wide receivers from the second tier" -- wideouts like Sammy Watkins, A.J. Green, and Corey Davis. Dez Bryant and Willie Snead aren't expected back for the Ravens in 2021.

A. Robinson - WR

CHI

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports the Bears are a potential landing spot for Alex Smith.

Smith, expected to be released by Washington this week, could reunite with Matt Nagy in Chicago. Nagy, of course, coached Smith in Kansas City, where Nagy served first as quarterbacks coach, then as offensive coordinator from 2016-2017. The Bears would offer one of Smith's only chances to start in 2021. Jacksonville has been mentioned as a potential fit for Smith, who was coached by Jaguars head coach Urban Meyer at Utah.

B. Skrine - DB

CHI

Bears released CB Buster Skrine.

Skrine, 32 next month, spent two seasons in Chicago, appearing in 28-of-32 games as the team's nickel corner following Bryce Callahan's departure to Denver. He had one year left on his deal, and the Bears will eat $3.3 million in dead cap space. Skrine hasn't picked off a pass since 2017 and is a run-of-the-mill slot cover man.

J. McCown - QB

HOU

Texans released QB Josh McCown.

He's expected to immediately pursue a career in coaching, likely landing back in Houston after the organization (comically) interviewed him for its head-coaching vacancy before formally hiring David Culley. With Tim Kelly still hanging on to his OC role, McCown could easily be groomed under the former while taking on the title of Assistant Head Coach. As always, nothing is off the table when it comes to the Texans.

B. Borders - DB

TEN

Titans signed DB Breon Borders.

Borders was actually waived by Tennessee (while still on the team's injured reserve list) no less than a week ago. He made five starts for the Titans last year, totaling 27 tackles, an interception, six passes defensed and a single tackle for a loss. He'll compete as depth this upcoming season.

L. Williams - DL

NYG

ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reports Leonard Williams' grievance over his position label with the NFLPA remains unresolved.

It's an impactful ruling for the entire league since the franchise tag for DEs would jump from $16.1 million to $17.8 million if Williams, eyeing a potential second consecutive tag, wins his case. Otherwise he'd remain labeled a DT and earn significantly less money in 2021. Those numbers would obviously matter immediately since the Giants are still reportedly trying to ink the 26-year-old to a long-term deal. Williams' play under first-year DC Patrick Graham resulted in a team- and career-high number of sacks (11.5), likely keeping the former in New York for $17-$20 million annually.

G. Ward - WR

PHI

Eagles tendered WR Greg Ward.

It means Ward will either have to put pen to paper on a minimum contract offer or sit out the season. Although it wasn't planned for the 25-year-old to be an integral part of Philadelphia's offense for the second straight year, Ward surprisingly totaled 53 catches for 419 yards and six touchdowns due to mid-season injuries dealt to DeSean Jackson, Alshon Jeffery, and Jalen Reagor. This move was a no-brainer given that Ward has proved competent with 81/673/7 since entering the league in 2019.

J. Watt - DL

ARI

Cardinals signed DE J.J. Watt to a two-year, $31 million contract.

Considered a long shot, Arizona kept a low profile to sign Watt, who was considering the Packers, Browns, and Steelers among others. The money is reasonable, featuring $23 million in guarantees. Heading into his age-32 season, Watt will likely play more snaps on the inside as some of his speed dwindles, but he still brings a high-end edge presence in spurts. Per NextGenStats, Watt was double teamed at the highest rate in the NFL last year (30%). It's unclear if the Watt signing means Arizona won't re-sign OLB Haasan Reddick (13.0 sacks in 2020), but if he were to come back the trio of Watt, Reddick, and OLB Chandler Jones would vault the Cardinals' pass rush into top-three consideration. They were eighth in adjusted sack rate last season while playing aggressive man coverage on the backend. Arizona's front office is certainly chasing their rookie quarterback contract window to win.

B. Scott - RB

PHI

Eagles tendered RB Boston Scott, LB Alex Singleton, and WR Greg Ward as exclusive free agents.

This means Scott, Ward, and Singleton can only negotiate with the Eagles this offseason. Scott made four starts for Miles Sanders in 2020, but was limited to 29 carries when he wasn’t starting. Doug Pederson's regime clearly liked Scott in the team's backfield; it remains to be seen how Nick Sirianni's staff will regard Scott. Ward, a former quarterback, has served as Philly's No. 1 receiver through large swaths of the past two seasons.

P. Mahomes - QB

Chiefs general manager Brett Veach said Patrick Mahomes will be “good to go” for training camp after undergoing toe surgery.

Mahomes has a three-month recovery period, putting him on track for a fairly normal offseason. He had surgery on his injured toe after KC was blown out by the Bucs in the Super Bowl -- a game that saw Mahomes limp around, clearly hobbled by the injury suffered in the Chiefs' playoff win over Cleveland. Barring a setback, Mahomes should be the first QB off the draft board in 2021 fantasy leagues.

P. Mahomes - QB

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports Washington will part ways with Alex Smith.

Smith, 36, is owed $26.2 million in 2021. Releasing him before June 1 would save Washington $14.7 million against the salary cap. The 2020 Comeback Player of the Year came back from a two-year leg injury to start six games for the Football Team after starting the season as a third stringer. Smith said recently that he knew Ron Rivera's coaching staff "didn’t want me there, didn’t want me to be a part of it, didn’t want me to be on the team, the roster, didn’t want to give me a chance." Apparently he was right. Jaguars Report's John Shipley said a reunion between Smith and Urban Meyer, his coach at Utah, would make sense. In February, Washington signed Taylor Heinicke -- who impressed in a playoff start against Tampa -- to a two-year deal. Heinicke, 27, will have a shot at the starting job in 2021 even when Washington brings in signal callers via the draft and free agency.
