49ers

  • 49ers GM John Lynch said San Francisco is talking to a few teams about trading WR Marquise Goodwin: โ€œWeโ€™ll see where that goes tomorrow.โ€ Lynch said of getting back into the second or third round. โ€œWeโ€™ve emptied the tank there a little.โ€ (Nick Wagoner)

Lions

  • Tom Pelissero mentions that the Lions are a team to keep an eye on for Oklahoma QB Jalen Hurts on Day 2 of the draft.
  • Pelissero mentions that Detroit privately met with Hurst last month and has the No. 35 overall picks and two third-round selections to work with tonight.
  • According to Albert Breer, the Lions could be a landing spot for one of the top running backs including Dโ€™Andre Swift and Jonathan Taylor

Vikings

  • Vikings GM Rick Spielman tells Josian Anderson: โ€œWeโ€™re trying to be as aggressive as we can tonight because of the amount of capital we have. If there are players still there..in the upper echelon of the 2nd/3rd round..once we finalize our game plan thatโ€™s a definite possibility.โ€ (Josina Anderson)
  • Anderson asked Spielman about potentially trading for Redskins LT Trent Williams. Spielman said โ€œthis morning Iโ€™ve spent most of my time assessing whatโ€™s left on the Draft board.โ€ However, Spielman did say: โ€œI would never say never.โ€ (Josina Anderson)
  • Ben Goessling mentions that the Vikings could be busy on Friday, considering that they have 12 picks to work with in the draft.
  • Goessling mentions that Minnesota could swing a trade for Williams and possibly move up in round two.
  • Goesslingโ€™s sense is that these possibilities arenโ€™t mutually exclusive.
  • Regarding Williams, Goessling says the Vikings would have to clear some cap room and suggests including LT Riley Reiff in the deal.
  • According to Tony Pauline, the Vikings have shown a lot of interest in Tulsa corner Reggie Robinson, who could be a day two pick.
