Skins dangling Springs, want Johnson
Posted: Wednesday April 25, 2007 07:43AM ET
Calvin Johnson is considered by many teams to be the best player available in the draft, and the Commanders are smitten with him as well, sources said, mulling over options to trade up to get him (the team has shopped cornerback Shawn Springs to Detroit, which has the second overall pick, again in recent weeks).

Bucs using smoke screen on OU RB?
Posted: Tuesday April 24, 2007 09:38AM ET
Bucs coach Jon Gruden recently called Adrian Peterson "as good a running back coming out of college as I've ever seen." Could it all be a smoke screen? Absolutely. At first glance, drafting Peterson seems like overkill after picking Cadillac Williams two years ago. But don't make the mistake of dismissing the notion.

Do Eagles need young QB? Well ...
Posted: Tuesday April 24, 2007 09:31AM ET
Some believe that the Eagles should select a young quarterback in the draft. The Eagles insist that they remain comfortable with Donovan McNabb as their No. 1 quarterback. Until McNabb returns, nobody can be certain if his recovery from a serious knee injury will be more similar to that of Carson Palmer or Daunte Culpepper.

Cowboys looking to move up in Draft?
Posted: Tuesday April 24, 2007 08:29AM ET
If the Cowboys move up, it would be for a potential star such as Calvin Johnson or a running back such as Adrian Peterson. If the right deal is presented, however, Dallas would move up. Jerry Jones said that the team will not part with anyone on its current roster to move up from the No. 22 pick.

While I wouldn't mind seeing us move up enough to draft an impact type player, I doubt that Jones would actually be willing to give up enough of our picks that would be necessary in order to move up high enough to get one of the impact players. I wouldn't be at all upset if he did, but I just don't see him giving up all the picks that we woudl have to in order to move that high to pull it off. However...as they say, on draft day....anything can happen, and sometimes does.
