NFL Rumors: Josh Allen, Cardinals, Giants

Josh Allen

• Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk reports that some league insiders believe Josh Allen‘s offensive tweets that surfaced in the past 24 hours will definitely be a factor when it comes to where he’s selected tonight.
• Florio explains that NFL teams will likely view this as a distraction that they won’t want to deal with, considering that all of the team’s players, coaches and executives will be grilled about their thoughts regarding Allen’s remarks from high school.
• A source tells Florio that if Allen lasts past the first five or six picks, it will be time for him and his agency to start getting nervous.
• However, Florio adds that some do think the Bills will still trade up to get him, but there’s a chance they may not have to trade up that far to get him.
• It’s worth mentioning that this contrasts with what Ian Rapoport has been reporting throughout the day.

Cardinals

• Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk reports that the Cardinals were looking to trade up in round one, but the current thinking is that they won’t be making a move and will instead stay at No. 15 overall.
• Florio adds that this is subject to change based on how things play out in the early part of round one.

Giants

• Jordan Raanan hears that trades are still on the table for the Giants at No. 2 overall.
• However, Saquon Barkley and Bradley Chubb as still the clubhouse leaders if they make No. 2 pick with Sam Darnold being the wildcard.
