Two teams that have shown a willingness to trade into the top 10, doing their homework on what it would cost: The #Falcons and the #Redskins. For Washington, it would likely be for a QB. For Atlanta, the options are varied.

Marquise Brown might be the only receiver picked in the first round
7. Only receiver I’m hearing consistently — across the board — getting first round “lock” buzz is Marquise “Hollywood” Brown.

3 Hottest names I am hearing leading up to tonights first round of the #NFLDraft
— Joel Klatt (@joelklatt) April 25, 2019
1) Dwayne Haskins
2) Devin Bush
3) Josh Rosen
Won't be surprised if Rosen is moved by the time pick #3 rolls around
5. The veteran I believe is most likely to be traded during this draft? #Cardinals CB Patrick Peterson. I think that relationship is wearing out and Arizona is willing to take calls on him.

Just heard 49ers are shopping Solomon Thomas, the third pick in the 2017 draft.

If the #AZCardinals have made a decision on No. 1, they are keeping it quiet. Source said GM Steve Keim reached out to at least one player -- #Bama DT Quinnen Willliams -- to let him know he’s still a possibility to go first overall.
