 Rodgers [Aaron Rodgers] Schefter: Aaron Rodgers is likely to play for the Jets or retire Details: Schefter [senses]( that the two âmost likely scenariosâ for Rodgers are to play for the Jets or retire. He does not see Rodgers returning to Green Bay. Interesting: During their coverage of the combine, both Daniel Jeremiah and Rich Eisen mentioned hearing a lot of [buzz]( surrounding Rodgers and the Jets. - Jeremiah â who is close friends with Jetsâ GM Joe Douglas â thinks Rodgers will cost less than a first-round pick. Other Teams: The Jets are the only team with confirmed interest, though there are still rumors connecting the 39-year-old to the Titans, Dolphins, and Raiders. Dominoes: If the Jets donât get Rodgers, then they are expected to sign Derek Carr. If they do get Rodgers, then Carr will likely end up in New Orleans. Image: Cliff Welch/Icon Sportswire Dolphins [Mike McDaniel] Dolphins to âexplore all options at quarterbackâ Details: The [insight]( comes from Josina Anderson, who added that the Dolphins will consider âmoving in a different direction" than Tua Tagovailoa. - Anderson gave the impression that the Dolphins have serious concerns about Tagovailoaâs concussion history.
- The team has to make a decision on Tagovailoaâs fifth-year option by May 1. Interesting: Dolphins GM Chris Grier acknowledged last week that Tagovailoaâs durability is a factor in the teamâs decision-making process. Notable: The Dolphins have privately considered other quarterbacks in each of the last two years â see Deshaun Watson, Tom Brady, and [Jimmy Garoppolo](. Who? If the Dolphins are to make a change, it figures to be for a big-name option like Lamar Jackson, Aaron Rodgers, or Garoppolo. - Jackson, who is from the Miami area, has teased interest in playing for the Dolphins.
- Garoppolo was coached by Mike McDaniel in San Francisco. Image: David Rosenblum/Icon Sportswire Giants [Daniel Jones] Giants still negotiating with Daniel Jones and Saquon Barkley Jones: According to Tom Pelissero, the Giants and Jonesâ agents [left]( the combine with âno contract resolution in sight.â - If a deal isnât reached by Tuesdayâs deadline, the Giants will use the franchise tag on the 25-year-old quarterback. +40M: ESPNâs Jordan Ranaan indicated that the Giants are now [willing]( to pay Jones at least $40 million per year. The teamâs initial preference was $35 million. Jones is asking for at least $45 million. Barkley: According to Ian Rapoport, the Giants have an offer out to Barkley â but are â[not close](â to a deal. - If Jones gets tagged, Barkley is almost certain to hit free agency. Image: Rich Graessle/Icon Sportswire Ramsey [Jalen Ramsey] Rapoport: Jalen Ramsey situation likely to play out before free agency Details: Free agency opens on March 15, so if Ramsey is traded, the deal will likely be completed within the next week and a half. Compensation: Rapoport thinks the Rams could get a [first-round]( pick for the 3x All-Pro. - Trading Ramsey would free up $5.6 million in cap space. Cowboys: According to Athleticâs [Jeff Howe](, âthereâs a rumor picking up steam in league circles that the Cowboys would be a good fit.â - Last week, Peter King [mentioned]( the Cowboys, Chiefs, and Bills as potential landing spots. Image: Nick Wosika/Icon Sportswire Richardson [Anthony Richardson] Florida QB Anthony Richardson set two combine records Details: Richardson recorded the best-ever vertical jump (40.5â) and broad jump (10â9â) by a quarterback in NFL combine history. - He also ran the 40-yard dash in 4.43 seconds â which is a rare time for a quarterback.
- Cam Newton â one of the NFLâs greatest rushing quarterbacks â ran a 4.60. Elite: Itâs not a stretch to say that Richardson is the most athletic quarterback prospect in league history. His marks are even more impressive when you account for his size (6-foot-4, 244 pounds). Top 10: Richardson met with multiple teams picking in the [top ten](. According to ESPNâs Jeff Legwold, he showed the ability during interviews to break down film and dissect plays. Developmental: Athletic gifts aside, teams still view Richardson as a developmental passer â considering he only completed 53.8% of his passes in 2022. Other QBs: Bryce Young did not participate in drills, but created headlines after measuring in at 5-foot-10, 204 pounds (which is nearly identical to Kyler Murray). C.J. Stroud [wowed]( observers with his performance in throwing drills. Image: Zach Bolinger/Icon Sportswire Combine [Jalin Hyatt] Combine Standouts: Alabama RB Jahmyr Gibbs and Tennessee WR Jalen Hyatt Gibbs: Gibbs â at 5-foot-9, 199 pounds â ran the 40 in 4.36 seconds. He was the second-fastest running back at the combine. - Texas A&Mâs Devon Achane was the fastest running back at 4.32 seconds.
- Bijan Robinson â the draftâs top-ranked back â ran a solid 4.46. Versatile: Former NFL GM Rick Spielman sees Gibbs being [used]( in a Christian McCaffrey-type role. - Gibbs totaled 1,370 scrimmage yards (926 rushing, 444 receiving) last season. Interesting: Gibbs [met]( with the Eagles and Cowboys over the weekend. Philadelphia is positioned to lose Miles Sanders and Boston Scott in free agency, while the Cowboys may release Ezekiel Elliott. Hyatt: Hyatt checked three major boxes â he ran 4.4 in the 40, hit 40â in the vertical, and leaped 11â3â in the broad. First Round? Some analysts think Hyattâs performance locked him into a first-round selection. The 6-foot-0, 176-pounder was one the most productive receivers in college football last year â 67 catches, 1,267 yards, and 15 touchdowns.
