Patriots open to trading down but comfortable at No. 3

Fantasy Impact: We are now less than one week away from the NFL Draft. The latest on the Patriots is that they’re open to trading down, but they also like the quarterbacks they could select with the No. 3 pick. It is currently a toss-up based on the betting odds as to who the Commanders select No. 2 overall between Drake Maye and Jayden Daniels with Maye recently picking up more steam. It is possible who Washington selects will impact what the Patriots decide to do as they are on the clock.
Jaguars will be ready to move up if ‘right person is there’
Jacksonville Jaguars general manager Trent Baalke said that the team will “need to calculate if there’s someone we covet and need to make a run to get to 12, 13.” (Source: John Shipley on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact: While every team does preliminary work on their options for trading up and trading down, the latter of which Baalke has done in the past, he specifically brought up the 12-14 range in the NFL Draft multiple times in his press conference. That could be an indication of their willingness to move assets for the right player or a talent cutoff on their board. It’s unlikely they make a pre-draft trade, but the Jaguars could prepare to move up if the right player is available.
Commanders not likely to trade out of No. 2
Washington Commanders general manager Adam Peters said the team feels “great about staying at No. 2” and that they “don’t see a whole lot of scenarios [where they trade] down.” (Source: John Keim on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact: The Commanders pick second overall in the 2024 NFL Draft and are in a prime position to get almost any player they want – outside of whoever gets selected No. 1. ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter said he believes LSU QB Jayden Daniels will be the pick for Washington, and unless they get a massive trade offer, they’ll likely stand pat and get the first- or second-best QB on their board.
