Oweh, a former first round pick, is now locked up until the end of the 2025 season. Pro Football Focus graded Oweh as the league’s 30th best EDGE in 2023, as he had nine QB hits and 40 QB hurries in an injury-shortened campaign. He has at least five sacks in each of his three seasons with Baltimore. PFF graded the Ravens as the seventh best pass-rushing defense in 2023.30 April 2024
Video of McDaniel and Grier confirm that McDaniel had advocated for Washington for several rounds before Miami took the wideout with the 184th overall pick. Washington was wildly productive at Virginia, going for 111/1,384/9 in his first and only season there. He eclipsed 100 receiving yards in an astounding ten of his 12 games in 2023. A shifty YAC maven, Washington should slot in nicely as Miami’s WR3. Commanding targets will be difficult in a passing attack dominated by Tyreek Hill and Jayl ...

The Vikings front office, in other words, did everything it could to move up and land Drake Maye. Instead, the stayed at pick 11 and took J.J. McCarthy. Minnesota’s aggressive offer undercuts the team’s insistence that McCarthy — who draft stock spiked in April — was their guy all along. “There were different points throughout the process where there were [offers],” said Elliott Wolf, New England’s director of scouting who has operated as the team’s de facto GM. “All along, we ...30 April 2024
Jacksonville draft K Cam Little out of Arkansas with the 212th pick of the 2024 NFL Draft. With Slye’s release, it looks like Little will compete with veteran Riley Patterson for kicking duties. Slye, who made 85 percent of his kicks during three years with the Commanders, will likely find work elsewhere this summer.30 April 2024

There was plenty of pre-draft chatter that the hulking Wilson (6'6/231) could fit better as a tight end in the NFL. Roseman told reporters on Monday that Wilson “can run the full route tree” and that wideouts are usually moved to tight end when they lack “lower body flexibility to get in and out of breaks.” “We don’t see that with Johnny,” Roseman said. Wilson, whose best collegiate season (2022) ended with 897 receiving yards, could fit in as a distant WR3 option behind A.J. Brown ...29 April 2024
With this extension, Kelce becomes the league’s highest-paid tight end and is now under contract through the 2027 season. This all but ensures that Kelce will retire as a Chief when he decides to hang it up, as he is now set to hit free agency after his age-37 season. Kelce took a slight step back in 2023, averaging 65.6 yards per game — his fewest since 2015, while also averaging a career-low 10.6 YPR. Despite this, he remained one of the league’s most productive tight ends, finishing the ...29 April 2024
Gallup made his rounds during the legal tampering period but ultimately went without a contract through the NFL Draft. That is, until the Raiders signed him to a one-year “prove it” deal Monday. Considering the Raiders are thin at the position behind Davante Adams and Jakobi Meyers, Gallup could push for starters snaps out of 11-personnel to start the season, assuming he can beat out Tre Tucker and Kristian Wilkerson. The one-year contract is worth up to $3 million.29 April 2024
With Kirk Cousins now in town, Pitts is looking at what may be his best season as a pro. After totaling 68-1026-1 in his rookie season, Pitts has managed just 81 catches for 1,013 yards and five touchdowns over his last two years combined. While the production numbers are low, Pitts has fallen victim to poor target quality from the likes of Marcus Mariota, Desmond Ridder, and Taylor Heinicke over that span. That target quality is expected to improve with Cousins now in town, which could be setti ...29 April 2024
One of the league’s premiere wind sprinters, Guyton caught just 10 passes for 89 yards and a touchdown last season and has a career line of 71-1112-7 over 46 games. Possessing long speed and the ability to occasionally blow past defenders, Guyton has plenty to offer teams as a field stretcher, but he doesn’t do much in the way of demanding targets when on the field. Whether it’s with the Raiders or another team, he should get a chance to compete for a spot on a 53-man roster this offseason ...29 April 2024
McDermott signed a two-year, $3.6 million contract last offseason but was released in September before being re-signed to the team’s practice squad. He would eventually be signed to the active roster and wound up appearing in six games while making five starts. A seven-year veteran of the league, McDermott has spent most of his career as a backup but has made 17 starts over that span. He’s spent his entire career in the AFC East, splitting time with the Bills, Jets, and Patriots. Now a free ...29 April 2024
Waddle has gone for 1,000-plus yards in each of his first three seasons with the Dolphins and has been an impressive producer for a guy who has spent two years playing opposite Tyreek Hill. Drafted with the No. 6 overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, Waddle’s 3,385 career yards rank third behind Ja’Marr Chase (3,717) and Amon-Ra St. Brown (3,602) as far as receivers taken in his class are concerned. He’ll earn $15.591 million on his fifth-year deal and should be in line for a long-term exten ...29 April 2024

Bateman’s extension is old news, but the details surrounding it were only recently explained by The Athletic’s Jeff Zrebiec. Zrebiec pointed out that Bateman was not eligible for a fifth-year option on his rookie deal after he opened training camp on the Did Not Report List last offseason. That fifth-year extension would have kept Bateman on his rookie deal through 2025. Instead, this two-year extension will kick in next season, keeping him under contract through 2026. It feels evergreen at ...29 April 2024
Wilson was on the active roster at the end of last season but didn’t play a snap for the Cowboys in 2023. He was suspended last October for violating the league’s personal conduct policy regarding an arrest in August 2022 but is now back and ready to play. He totaled 38 tackles and two sacks in 2022 with the Panthers and has a 106 tackle season on his resumé from the 2021 season. With Leighton Vander Esch now retired, the Cowboys could benefit from added depth at the linebacker position. Wi ...
