There is plenty of news out there. Here are two that are out there.

Now that we are under a week away from the NFL draft, more and more rumors and nuggets are starting to spill out. Let’s talk about a few of those.

Giant mistake

This afternoon, Charles Robinson of Yahoo Sports said that there is a team that has Duke’s QB Daniel Jones as the top quarterback on their draft board. That team is the New York Giants. That is insane to me. Knowing the San Francisco 49ers are selecting second overall, this is potentially great news. If the Giants were to trade up to No. 2 overall, the 49ers almost have to take that deal, knowing that New York is interested in Jones.

The reason it’s great is because all this does is push the players the 49ers actually want down in the draft. Think about it, Jones goes No. 2, perhaps Dwayne Haskins goes in the next couple picks, and the Niners are staring at a Nick Bosa/Quinnen Williams/Josh Allen pick at No. 6. Getting a player you initially wanted and being able to add an additional first round pick is how you manipulate the draft. San Francisco would be wise to take advantage of the Giants love for Jones, if it is indeed true.

Chaos in Cardinal land

Oh, Arizona. I’ve been able to form some relationships here in Phoenix and let’s just say that the Cardinals GM Steve Keim is not happy that teams aren’t offering a first round pick for Josh Rosen. This has led to a “last minute panic.” There is a real possibility that—if Rosen doesn’t get traded—the team will pass on Kyler Murray. Keim is stubborn. That could ultimately work against him. Here’s where it gets fun. If Arizona were to pass on Murray, Bosa isn’t their target. As of Thursday, Keim was trying to convince the front office to select Williams.

John Lynch better have his phone charged if that happens. Teams will come calling early and often if Murray is still available. Let’s say the Oakland Raiders come get Kyler. It’s believed that the New York Jets are interested in Josh Allen, as they missed out on Anthony Barr. A best case scenario is the 49ers can move down two picks and still get Bosa. I don’t think anyone would complain with that.

This could all be moot if Rosen is traded for a first-rounder, or Keim softens his stance. Still, the draft is about information. Where there’s smoke there’s fire.
