Latest Rumors

Trade Market Heating Up

There could be a good number of trades that occur Thursday night. ESPN's Adam Schefter noted that number is likely to be between five and seven, like it has for the past few years. 

NFL Network's Tom Pelissero added some detail to the potential deals, listing a few teams with the most interest in trading down, including the New York Jets at No. 3. 

NFL Network's Mike Garafolo provided more context by saying the cost of moving up the draft might not be as high as past years because of the plateau of talent and no mad scramble for quarterbacks. 

Atlanta and Washington are two of the teams with the potential to trade up into the top 10, as NFL Network's Ian Rapaport noted. 

Pelissero reported there are people convinced that Atlanta's potential trade up would be for Michigan linebacker Devin Bush.

Washington's reported target is a quarterback, and if the Redskins move up high enough, they could have their choice of either Dwayne Haskins, Drew Lock and Daniel Jones, who are the top three quarterbacks behind Murray on most draft boards. 

Cardinals Down To 3 Targets at No. 1

NFL.com's Mike Silver reported Thursday that the Cardinals have narrowed their list to Murray, Nick Bosa and Quinnen Williams. This was determined after an inclusive redraft process inside the organization.

Murray has long been linked with the Cardinals because of his connections with head coach Kliff Kingsbury, but there is a real possibility they could go for a defensive player. 

Arizona struggled on defense for most of last season, and both Bosa and Williams would be an upgrade to its roster. 

Bosa would bring a needed pass-rushing presence to the defense. Williams could be the best fit for the Cardinals because of his ability to smother opposing rushing attacks and get to the quarterback. 

If the Cardinals do go after a defensive prospect, it could significantly change the complexion of the first round, as Murray would suddenly be available to teams in need of quarterbacks.
