49ers
49ers GMย Trent Baalke told reporters that they’ve had no contact whatsoever with free agent QB Robert Griffin III or his agent.
“We’ve had no contact with Robert (Griffin III) or his agents,” Baalke said, per Paul Gutierrez. “Right now, we’re focused on and some other things. Will there be a time where we could sit down? That certainly could happen. But it hasn’t happened to this point.”
Baalke was also asked about the possibility of re-signing veteran WR Anquan Boldin. However, they’ve yet to speak to him about being back in San Francisco next year.
โRight now, weโve had no discussions with Anquan up to this point,โ Baalke said Tuesday, via CSN Bay Area. โWe left it in the offseason that weโd get back together at some point and talk about his future and what heโs looking for. Have not had that conversation as of yet.โ
Even though there hasn’t been any communication regarding a return, Baalke didn’t rule out him being back.
โI wouldnโt say that door has been shut by any stretch,โ Baalke said. โBut where it is, itโs where it was when we left off (the season). Heโs going to explore his options, and weโre going to explore ours. We got a draft to go through. It would be later than sooner, in terms of the final decision thatโs made.โ

Titans
Titans GM Jon Robinson mentioned during an interview with ESPN Tuesday that he’s had “a couple of conversations” at the owner’s meetings about trading No. 1 pick, per Adam Schefter.
Robinson added that they’re clearly open to moving to the pick if the right deal comes about.
“Weโd be open to moving the pick,” Robinson said, per Schefter. “I think the statement I made the other day maybe got taken out of context a little bit with ‘kings random’. … The question was what would it take to move way back in the draft, which would take a lot of picks…I think some heard that I wasnโt open to moving, or we werenโt open to moving the pick, which is not true.โ
Meanwhile, Titans HC Mikeย Mularkey spoke highly of FSU DB Jalen Ramsey.
โIf we had to put him at a nickel to play the tight ends that are playing at such a high level, he could do that,” Mularkey said, via David Newton of ESPN. โLike his size. Like the way he tackles. A very aggressive player. Thatโs rare to have a cover guy who will come up and strike you like he will.
โSmart. A lot of things about him that are impressive about him on tape. And in the interview.”
