@AdamSchefter @ESPNNFL Ummm now the draft gets fun

Comp update: Kirk Cousins will sign a five-year, $172 million deal with the Raiders that in reality is a one-year, fully-guaranteed $20 million deal that also contains a club option for two years at $80M. The Falcons will pay Cousins $8.7 million this season, the Raiders another $1.3 million and Las Vegas also agreed to pay its new QB a fully-guaranteed $10 million roster bonus on the third day of the 2027 new league year. And maybe most notably, it also sets another new mark: this will be the 11th straight NFL season in which Cousins’ contract will be fully guaranteed.

@thorku Would you rather be Achane or Breece Hall?

Poor Achane.

@NFL_DF Our mock from Monday had Lemon going to KC at 9

You have to double up at WR if you’re the Miami Dolphins Target Makai Lemon at 11, and then acquire a true X WR like Malachi Fields using your insane 3rd round draft capital

@SharpFootball The Dolphins and Jets are going to have a ton of fun on draft weekend

the Miami Dolphins now have: the #1 most draft capital for any Dolphins draft since 2020... the #2 most draft capital for any Dolphins draft since at least 1999... the #2 most draft capital for any team in the 2026 NFL Draft

updated 2026 draft capital as of right now (thru the finalized Waddle trade) read analysis: sharpfootballanalysis.com/analysis/nfl-d…

@AdamSchefter Love it. Still a variety of trade possibilties before the draft.

If it seems like there have been more trades than ever, there have been. Since the 2026 new league year started last week, there have been 18 trades, including Andy Dalton today. From the day the 2025 new league year started until the NFL Draft, there were 15 trades. One week of the league year this year already has produced three more trades than there were over weeks last year.

@danorlovsky7 Wow. Deep. I'm not sure what I missed but let's do some mock drafts.

I was raised on work ethic. That’ll never change. Let’s not lose sight of that for ourselves or others.

@nfldraftscout We don't see a chance of him making it to the Bears

Would love to see Emmanuel McNeil-Warren there. Not sure if he slips that far down. Zion Young probably my second choice from the players likely to be available

@FTFonFS1 @DannyParkins Great coach? Have you talked to any Vikings fans on that topic?

“[The Vikings are] clearly the best worst team… Top 5 defense, top 5 wide receiver duo, play in a dome, great coach. It’s just a scary last place team if they are a last place team.” @DannyParkins thinks the NFC North could be the best division in football:

@BengalYouTube It's a rebuild. Everybody will feel better about the Dolphins after the draft.

What helps the Broncos win a super bowl more? 3 years of Jaylen Waddle + a 4th rounder, or #30 overall, a 3rd, and a 4th I think it's a no brainer for Denver and a bad move for Miami What the hell is Malik Willis supposed to do
