The Dallas Cowboys have been quiet during free agency, but it appears that they’re finally making a move. The team is reportedly meeting with running back Ezekiel Elliott’s representative ahead of the NFL Draft. Elliott was released by the Cowboys in 2023 after a down year, but he remains a productive back and would be a valuable addition to the Cowboys’ offense. A reunion with Elliott would ease the pressure on the Cowboys to draft a running back and would add a proven player to one of the team’s weaker units.

The Cleveland Browns, seeking to bolster their linebacker group, may consider Edgerrin Cooper from Texas A&M in the upcoming NFL Draft. Cooper had an impressive 2023 season, ranking 12th in tackles (83) and fifth in sacks (8.5) in the Southeastern Conference. He also showcased his abilities at the NFL combine, tying for third in the 40-yard dash among linebackers. If drafted by the Browns, Cooper could bring a strong presence to their defense.

The Minnesota Vikings enter the 2024 NFL Draft with a clear need for upgrades at several positions, including quarterback and defense. With nine draft picks and two first-round selections, the Vikings will have options to address their roster deficiencies. The team’s top priority is finding a long-term solution at quarterback, a position that has been in flux since the departure of Brett Favre. The Vikings could trade up in the first round to select a top quarterback prospect, such as Drake Maye from North Carolina or J.J. McCarthy from Michigan. On the defensive side of the ball, the Vikings will look to bolster their pass rush and secondary. They could target defensive line prospects such as Byron Murphy II from Texas or Michael Hall Jr. from Ohio State to improve their interior pressure. At cornerback, Akayleb Evans, Mekhi Blackmon, and Andrew Booth Jr. have yet to fully establish themselves, so the Vikings may add another option with their high draft pick.

The Cleveland Browns may consider trading up in the fourth round of the NFL draft on Saturday to avoid a large gap in their draft order. The Browns currently have no picks in the fourth round and their first selection is No. 54 in the second round. Some draft experts believe that the talent level drops off significantly midway through the fourth round, so the Browns could look to move back into that range.

The San Francisco 49ers hold 10 picks in the 2024 NFL Draft, including a first-round selection. The team has several needs they need to address, including offensive tackle, receiver, and nickel cornerback. With the depth of talent available in this year’s draft class, the 49ers have the opportunity to add key pieces to their roster and make a significant impact in the upcoming season.

With quarterback concerns alleviated by the signing of Kirk Cousins, the Atlanta Falcons now turn their attention to the NFL Draft, where they hold the No. 8 overall pick. Fox Sports’ David Helman advocates for the selection of University of Alabama edge rusher Dallas Turner, citing the team’s dire need for a pass rusher. Turner’s impressive 2023 campaign, with 53 tackles, 14.5 tackles for loss, and 10 sacks, makes him a prime candidate to address this key area of weakness for the Falcons. Despite a slight dip in his sophomore year, Turner has consistently demonstrated his potential and would be an exciting addition to the Atlanta defense.

Cincinnati Bengals defensive end Trey Hendrickson has reportedly requested a trade, following in the footsteps of teammates Jonah Williams and Tee Higgins. Hendrickson is seeking long-term security, but the Bengals have historically stood firm against disgruntled players. Despite Hendrickson’s recent one-year contract extension, the Bengals are unlikely to grant his request. The situation has been ongoing for some time, with Hendrickson’s agent considering retirement as a possible leverage tactic.
