Bengals

Ravens

• The Athletic’s Jeff Zrebiec writes that while the Ravens are willing to listen to offers for TE Hayden Hurst, it would likely take a second-round pick or multiple Day 3 picks to make a deal worthwhile. 
• Zrebiec says the Ravens want CB Jimmy Smith back on a short deal at $7 million per year, while Smith wants a little more and a multi-year commitment. 
• Ravens DT Michael Pierce is another player Baltimore seems willing to let test the open market, though if no huge market develops Zrebiec adds Pierce could return. 
• Zrebiec doesn’t see the Ravens using a midround pick on a quarterback like Oklahoma QB Jalen Hurts since they already have Robert Griffin and Trace McSorley on the roster. 

Steelers

• Sports Illustrated’s Albert Breer says Steelers DT Javon Hargrave is expected to sign for at least $12 million a year. in free agency. 
• Utah RB Zack Moss had a formal interview with the Steelers at the Combine. (Josh Newman)
