Draft

• According to Mike Freeman’s source, the 49ers want to trade out of the No. 2 pick “pretty bad.” However, the issue for San Francscico is the fact that everyone is aware of this.
• His source also mentioned that some teams are trying to trade up with the Bears, but Chicago has so far declined to do so.
• Jaguars executive Tom Coughlin reportedly “loves” LSU RB Leonard Fournette and may very well take him with the No. 4 overall pick.
• Freeman’s source can’t see the Jets taking a quarterback at No. 6 overall.
• The Bills are a team to watch in regards to a quarterback with UNC’s Mitch Trubisky being the guy to watch, according to Freeman’s source.
• With this in mind, Freeman’s source could see the Browns attempting to move up ahead of the Bills to get Trubisky.
• Another spot where a quarterback could come off the board is at No. 13, as the Cardinals could be looking to find a long-term replacement for Carson Palmer, says Freeman’s source.
• In regards to the Colts, Freeman’s source expects them to take either Stanford RB Christian McCaffrey or go with Oklahoma RB Joe Mixon. Indianapolis is reportedly “taking a hard look” at Mixon.
• While this isn’t related to the draft, Freeman’s source believes there’s a “60 or 70 percent chance” Tony Romo ends up playing for the Texans at some point in 2017.

Broncos

Steelers

Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger released a statement to Pro Football Talk denying a recent report that he’s lobbied the team to draft a tight end.

“The report of me lobbying to draft a tight end or pass catcher is wrong. Coaches and teammates know I love the guys we have and always believe we can win. I trust the organization to do their best selecting players to help us, and every year they tell me generally the positions they are exploring, but I have not lobbied or demanded we add a tight end or pass catcher or any other position through the draft or free agency.”
