    Kyren Williams May 4 1:00pm CT
    Kyren Williams

    Los Angeles Rams running back Kyren Williams doesn't think he has reached his ceiling despite back-to-back 1,100-yard rushing seasons. Williams has also added an impressive 26 total touchdowns the last two years. "I don't feel like I've touched my peak yet. I've gotten to where I wanted to be, but I'm determined to make this my best season," Williams said. The 24-year-old former fifth-rounder in 2022 remains hungry for more production as he enters the final year of his rookie deal in 2025 with the Rams. L.A. could involve backup Blake Corum behind Williams more in his second year in the league, but Williams remains the team's unquestioned RB1 as long as he's healthy, and he should be considered a solid midrange RB1 option in fantasy drafts this fall. In 16 regular-season games in 2024, Williams was the RB6 in half-PPR scoring with 1,299 rushing yards and 14 rushing TDs on 316 carries.

    Kyle Pitts May 4 12:50pm CT
    Kyle Pitts

    Atlanta Falcons offensive coordinator Zac Robinson said that he "wants to continue to develop" tight end Kyle Pitt's tight end skills and that he's "expecting Kyle to take a big jump" in Year 2 of the offensive system in 2025. The former fourth overall pick in 2021 -- the highest a tight end has been drafted in the NFL -- had 68 catches for 1,026 yards and a touchdown as a Pro Bowler in his rookie season while becoming the second TE in NFL history to post a 1,000-yard season, joining Hall of Famer Mike Ditka. However, the 24-year-old has disappointed the last three years with 1,625 yards combined and never finishing with more than 667 yards. He also suffered a season-ending torn MCL in 2022. We've heard in the past that Pitts has been primed for a big year, only for him to disappoint. For fantasy managers will to take the chance on him, Pitts is entering a contract year and will be working with impressive young quarterback Michael Penix Jr.

    Omarion Hampton May 4 12:50pm CT
    Omarion Hampton

    Los Angeles Chargers rookie first-round running back Omarion Hampton said on The Jim Rome Show that he believes he and Najee Harris can create "a dominant backfield" in 2025. "We know they're going to run the ball, so I'm loving it," Hampton said. The 22nd overall pick was a workhorse back in college at North Carolina and was incredibly productive for the Tar Heels with 2,033 scrimmage yards in 2024, which was the third-most in the nation. Although he won't be a workhorse immediately for the Bolts while sharing touches with Harris, Hampton should have plenty of fantasy upside immediately in a run-first L.A. offense. He averaged over 175 total yards per game in 12 contests in 2024 and was also the fourth FBS player with 1,500-plus rushing yards and 15-plus rushing touchdowns in back-to-back seasons since 2016.

    Blake Lynch May 4 12:20pm CT
    Blake Lynch

    The Kansas City Chiefs waived defensive end B.J. Thompson (chest) and released linebacker Blake Lynch on Saturday to free up roster spots for undrafted free agents, according to Chiefs Digest's Matt Derrick. According to a source, if Thompson clears waivers, he will revert back to the Chiefs on Injured Reserve and will continue his rehab from the seizure he suffered last June. KC recently signed 16 undrafted rookie free agents. Thompson, 26, was a former fifth-rounder (166th overall) in 2023 out of Stephen F. Austin. He spent all of last year on the Non-Football Illness list after going into cardiac arrest. Thompson played in just one game in 2023 and had two solo tackles. Lynch, 28, went undrafted out of Baylor and debuted in the NFL in 2020 with the Vikings. He has 57 tackles (37 solo), two sacks, an interception, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery in four NFL seasons.

    Robbie Ouzts May 4 12:10pm CT
    Robbie Ouzts

    The Seattle Seahawks are converting rookie fifth-round tight end Robbie Ouzts to a 274-pound fullback as part of their vision for a more physical running game under new offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak, according to ESPN's Brady Henderson. Ouzts will be competing with Brady Russell, who is also making the transition from tight end to fullback this offseason. He worked mostly as a blocker during his four-year college career at Alabama, so it should be a pretty natural transition for Ouzts in Seattle. Ouzts obviously won't be on the fantasy radar at all as a blocker if he's on the field regularly, but this news is good news for the Seahawks' ground attack and starting running back Kenneth Walker III and backup Zach Charbonnet. In 17 games last year, Seattle averaged just 95.7 rushing yards per game, which ranked as the fifth-fewest in the NFL.

    Isaac TeSlaa May 3 4:20pm CT
    Isaac TeSlaa

    Per Rainer Sabin and Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press, the Detroit Lions have signed undrafted free-agent wide receiver Jakobie Keeney-James to a three-year, $2.985 million deal. The Massachusetts product is set to compete for a spot on the Lions' active roster, joining fellow rookie wideout Isaac TeSlaa as new acquisitions for 2025. Keeney-James didn't post eye-popping stats at either of his stops in college (EWU), though he did catch 50 balls last season and turned them into 839 yards (16.8 per reception) and six touchdowns. The 24-year-old isn't a burner (4.59 40-yard dash) and has quite a ways to go for playing time. We'll see if he can make a big enough splash over the next few months to stick with the organization.

    Savion Williams May 3 3:50pm CT
    Savion Williams

    The Green Bay Packers have signed third-round rookie wide receiver Savion Williams to a four-year, $6.28 million deal. Green Bay has now signed all but two of their picks from April's draft -- their first- and second-rounders. The second of the Pack's drafted wide receivers (Matthew Golden), Williams is a big, physical wideout with excellent speed for his size (6-foot-4, 4.48 40-yard dash). He has all the athletic gifts to be a menace in the league, but is raw as a route runner, making him more of a developmental asset at this time. It seems unlikely that he'll immediately compete for snaps, considering the Packers' loaded WR corps -- filled to the brim with viable NFL-caliber wideouts. Still, he's an intriguing prospect tied to one of the league's better quarterbacks. If the 23-year-old can hammer out the finer details, seeing him carve out a role with Green Bay wouldn't be surprising.

    Antwaun Powell-Ryland May 3 3:40pm CT
    Antwaun Powell-Ryland

    The Philadelphia Eagles have signed fifth-round defensive back Mac McWilliams to his four-year rookie contract on Saturday. He's the fifth Eagles rookie to ink their deal, joining quarterback Kyle McCord, tackle Myles Hinton, and linebackers Smael Mondon Jr. and Antwaun Powell-Ryland. The Central Florida alum started 11 games for the team in 2024 and graded out as their best defender. McWilliams recorded 32 tackles (25 solo), with a sack, an INT, and seven tackles for loss. Per assistant general manager Alec Halaby, the 23-year-old possesses the versatility to line up inside or outside, carrying go routes with his athleticism, or stepping up in the run game when needed. "He's a great kid who works extremely hard. We have a lot of belief that he can maximize what he can be," stated Halaby.

    Jalen Ramsey May 3 12:40pm CT
    Jalen Ramsey

    The market for a return on Miami Dolphins cornerback Jalen Ramsey in a trade is weaker now that the 2025 NFL draft has passed, but the Dolphins are still expected to move him this offseason. The Dolphins would clear almost $10 million in 2025 salary cap space if Ramsey is a post-June 1 trade. There has been some talk that the Los Angeles Rams would be open to a reunion with the seven-time Pro Bowler, but NFL.com's Nick Shook lists the Baltimore Ravens as potentially being the best fit. Baltimore's secondary appears crowded as of now, and money could be an issue, but they have never shied away from making instant-impact signings at the back end of their defense. Other teams that could look to trade for Ramsey include the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Arizona Cardinals and Las Vegas Raiders, but there's also still a chance he sticks in Miami in 2025.

    Amari Cooper May 3 12:20pm CT
    Amari Cooper

    Veteran wide receiver Amari Cooper is one of the top free agents still available after the NFL draft last week, and NFL.com's Kevin Patra suggests that reuniting with the Dallas Cowboys could be the best fit for him. The five-time Pro Bowler is coming off the worst year of his career in 2024 with the Cleveland Browns and Buffalo Bills, combining for 44 catches, 547 yards and four touchdowns in 14 total games. He had just 297 yards and two TDs in eight regular-season games with the Bills and averaged just 6.8 yards per catch in three playoff games. The 30-year-old might not be a No. 1 wideout anymore, but he could still have value, and a return to the receiver-needy Cowboys could spark a resurgence. In addition to Dallas, Patra thinks the Arizona Cardinals, New Orleans Saints, Philadelphia Eagles, Las Vegas Raiders, New York Jets and Bills could be potential landing spots for the former first-rounder.

    Brandon Johnson May 2 11:00pm CT
    Brandon Johnson

    The Philadelphia Eagles signed undrafted rookie free-agent wide receivers Darius Cooper (Tarleton State) and Taylor Morin (Wake Forest), running backs Montrell Johnson (Florida) and Shunderrick Powell (Central Arkansas), linebacker Lance Dixon (Toledo), defensive backs Maxen Hook (Toledo), Brandon Johnson (Oregon), and BJ Mayes (Texas A&M), and offensive lineman (Hollin Pierce (Rutgers) on Friday. Cooper finished second in Division 1 last year with 1,450 receiving yards and sixth in touchdowns with 14. He had 164 catches for 3,185 yards and 29 touchdowns in 48 career games. Johnson will add depth to Philly's backfield after rushing for 2,251 yards and 21 TDs in his three seasons with the Gators. Morin was Wake Forest's all-time leading receiver with 2,974 yards. He also finished second all-time in school history in catches (227) and fourth in touchdowns (21).

    Elijah Arroyo May 2 11:00pm CT
    Elijah Arroyo

    Seattle Seahawks rookie tight end Elijah Arroyo (knee) said that the knee injury that slowed him down during the pre-draft process is behind him. Arroyo didn't run the 40-yard dash at the scouting combine in February or at his Pro Day due to his knee injury, but the Seahawks estimated that the 6-foot-5, 254-pounder would run a 4.52-second 40 based on his GPS speeds. Despite his knee issue, the Seahawks selected the 22-year-old former Miami product in the second round (50th overall) in last week's draft. Seattle still has Noah Fant, who caught 48 passes for 500 yards and a touchdown on 64 targets in 14 games in 2024, but Arroyo has a shot to carve out a significant role in his rookie season, especially as a red-zone target for quarterback Sam Darnold. Arroyo can probably be ignored in standard redraft leagues this fall but will be an intriguing dynasty/keeper prospect long-term.

    Jihaad Campbell May 2 10:40pm CT
    Jihaad Campbell

    Philadelphia Eagles rookie first-round linebacker Jihaad Campbell (shoulder) was not participating in the team's rookie minicamp on Friday while he recovers from offseason shoulder surgery. It's no surprise that Campbell isn't ready to take part in on-field work after he tore his labrum and had surgery in March. The defending Super Bowl champions have no reason to rush Campbell along as he gets ready for his first season in the NFL. However, as long as the 21-year-old doesn't suffer a setback during his recovery, he could be ready to go for the start of training camp at the end of July. The Eagles haven't put a timeline on the 31st overall pick in last week's NFL draft. When the Eagles broke off to position drills on Friday, Campbell went with the off-ball linebackers, which means he may not be viewed as a pure pass-rusher just yet.

    Jerome Ford May 2 10:30pm CT
    Jerome Ford

    Cleveland Browns rookie running back Jerome Ford agreed to a pay cut with the team on Friday, reducing his 2025 salary from $3.486 million to a guaranteed $1.75 million, a league source told The Cleveland Plain Dealer's Mary Kay Cabot. It means that free-agent RB Nick Chubb will likely not be re-signing with the Browns this offseason. The move to reduce Ford's salary comes after the Browns selected former Ohio State RB Quinshon Judkins with the 33rd overall pick in last week's NFL draft. Cleveland also added to the RB room and took former Tennessee rusher Dylan Sampson at No. 126 overall. Ford, a fifth-rounder in 2022, led the team with 565 yards on 104 carries (5.4 yards per carry) and three touchdowns with Chubb coming off a serious knee injury in 2023. The 25-year-old Ford is technically still atop the team's RB depth chart, but his reduction in pay is a clear sign that Judkins will have the opportunity to become the RB1 sooner than later in 2025.

    Christian Watson May 2 10:20pm CT
    Christian Watson

    Per Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur, wide receiver Christian Watson (knee) is doing well in his recovery from a torn right ACL that he suffered in early January of this year. "He's been outstanding. Great attitude and he's working hard. That's all you can ask of anybody," LaFleur said. It's good to hear that Watson's attitude has been great during a grueling rehab, but he's still probably unlikely to be ready for the start of the 2025 regular season this fall. The 25-year-old's serious knee injury is part of the reason the Packers broke their long run of taking a wideout in the first round when they selected former Texas pass-catcher Matthew Golden with the 23rd overall pick. Green Bay doubled down on receiver depth and took Savion Williams in the third round. Not only will Watson potentially miss half the season, but the Packers' wideout room just became a lot more crowded.

    Jaire Alexander May 2 10:20pm CT
    Jaire Alexander

    Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur confirmed that cornerback Jaire Alexander (knee) is not taking part in the team's voluntary offseason program. "I just know we're trying to work through it," LaFleur said. Alexander took part in the team's remote sessions last week, but it's not a big surprise that he's not doing any physical activities yet after having offseason surgery to fix a PCL tear in his right knee. Although it's unclear if the veteran defensive back will even be back in Green Bay for the 2025 season, a report surfaced earlier this week that the two sides continue to discuss a resolution to keep him in town. Alexander has $24.6 million and $27 million salary cap hits over the next two seasons, which is likely why he hasn't been traded. The former 18th overall pick in 2018 out of Louisville is a two-time Pro Bowler but has played in just 14 games the last two seasons due to injuries.

    Ross Dwelley May 2 3:20pm CT
    Ross Dwelley

    The San Francisco 49ers have agreed to a one-year contract with former Atlanta Falcons tight end Ross Dwelley. ESPN's Adam Schefter reported the news, but did not disclose the monetary details. The 30-year-old spent his first seven campaigns in the league with San Francisco and will return after a one-year stint with the Falcons. Dwelley appeared in all 17 games last season, but he played only 105 snaps (9.19%) -- snagging his only target for a gain of five yards. He did most of his damage -- snap-wise -- on special teams, but was still only on the field roughly a third of the time (37.22% of snaps). It's possible the 49ers brought him on due to his familiarity with their system, but he doesn't project to make an impact in the receiving column. He'll serve as a depth piece for the organization.

    Collin Oliver May 2 2:40pm CT
    Collin Oliver

    Former Oklahoma State linebacker Collin Oliver has signed a four-year, $4.6 million deal with the Green Bay Packers. ESPN's Adam Schefter reported the news. The Oklahoma City native was chosen with the No. 159 overall pick in April's draft. Oliver didn't miss a game throughout his first three seasons as a Cowboy and started all 14 games as a Junior, notching 73 tackles, six sacks, 15.5 tackles for loss, and four forced fumbles. However, he'd start just two games in 2024 after suffering a right foot injury. He spent only two years at linebacker in college, as he converted from defensive end after his first two campaigns, so there's some pass-rush intrigue here, as he recorded 11.5 sacks in 14 games in his true freshman season (one start). Oliver lacks the length and size to handle edge duties full time, but he could be an impact rotational player if he puts his foot issues behind him.

    Antwaun Powell-Ryland May 2 2:20pm CT
    Antwaun Powell-Ryland

    According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, former Georgia Bulldog linebacker Smael Mondon Jr. signed a four-year, $4.595 million deal with the Philadelphia Eagles. Philadelphia selected the Georgia native in the fifth round of last month's draft, though he was initially projected as a third-round talent. A five-star recruit out of high school, he was a three-year starter at Georgia, but saw his draft stock decline as injuries have become an issue for him. After missing three games over his sophomore and junior seasons, the 22-year-old sat out four contests in his final campaign with a leg injury and underwent surgery on a stress fracture in his foot this spring. Mondon Jr. has the athleticism and football IQ to stick on the Eagles' defense, and he fortunately won't be expected to step into a starting role right away. He was the second of three linebackers Philly drafted in April, joining first-round pick Jihaad Campbell and sixth-round selection Antwaun Powell-Ryland.

    Hunter Renfrow May 2 11:40am CT
    Hunter Renfrow

    New Carolina Panthers wide receiver Hunter Renfrow didn't play at all in 2024 after being released by the Las Vegas Raiders while being treated for ulcerative colitis, which caused him to drop from 185 pounds to 150 pounds. Renfrow had a stretch of seven straight days with a fever of 103 degrees, and the 29-year-old wondered if he'd ever play football again after disappointing seasons in both 2022 and 2023. He made the Pro Bowl in 2021 by catching a career-high 103 passes for 1,038 yards and nine touchdowns but took a month off after the Pro Bowl because he felt "kind of tired." Renfrow signed a two-year, $32 million deal the next offseason, right before he started feeling really bad. The good news is he's back up to 185 pounds and will try to provide receiving depth in Carolina behind Xavier Legette, Adam Thielen and rookie first-rounder Tetairoa McMillan in 2025.
