I don't think Benjamin St-Juste is going to convert to safety any time soon. From watching him today, he looks like a press man corner and had some struggles playing off and in zone

— Mark Bullock (@MarkBullockNFL) May 3, 2021

And by on the field I mean throughout the spring. See how guys are moving. Are they “getting” it... etc.

— John Keim (@john_keim) May 3, 2021

Ryan is a lead by example guy. Not a thing wrong with that but They have a good amount of those. Not diminishing it or him but I think you’re overstating this aspect. And the big time leader there now is chase young. He’s the one who forces others to keep up with him. They’re OK.

— John Keim (@john_keim) May 3, 2021

there's no real rush. if the other guys look like they can play, then they're cheaper and perhaps can develop over the season and over time... younger matters.. not dismissing RK, just saying why not now. Everyone wants youth

— John Keim (@john_keim) May 3, 2021

Yeah. Viewed as situational rusher. He was hoping for more. At a certain point tho for him it’s just better to wait. Teams see what they have and still need.

Interesting nugget from Rivera - Washington made late round trade to acquire more picks so they could avoid having to pay more $$ for undrafted rookie free agents. WFT has only signed 1 UDFA thus far, and the team is bringing in more free agents this week, not just rookies

— JP Finlay (@JPFinlayNBCS) May 3, 2021

Ron was more saying that he wanted to get back into the 7th to avoid the competition in the UDFA market. Didn't think it would have been easy to get Toney

Keep your on Shaka Toney, @WashingtonNFL fans@PFF_Mike on the former @PennStateFball edge defender

Everyone was so excited to have Sam Cosmi with us Sunday morning. Friday night he was drafted by the Washington football team of the NFL. After his historic Friday, he came to God’s house on Sunday. God bless you Sam. pic.twitter.com/0HAVDzjPwW

— Ron Macey (@revronmac) May 3, 2021

Sami being Sami...Realize pro dream Friday, back at @AHSEagleFB training Monday. He will never change... all he knows is WORK!!!

Congrats @WashingtonNFL, he'll be ready to compete May 12th. pic.twitter.com/k8o008bgsB

Brown seems to love blocking too. Watch him on the outside to the left here. Engages with the CB and drives him down the sideline pic.twitter.com/byxzIp0RCD

Low key top consequence of the draft: Two picks potentially improve 4 positions. Brown allows Samuel to go to the slot and BSJ allows Fuller to move to the slot, eventually. Great moves.

Thanks Coach https://t.co/YsqnLv26Eh

Ron Rivera said if Jamin Davis pans out, they envision him being a three-down linebacker, playing in base and nickel packages: He's a guy that we don't think we'll have to take off the field.

— Matthew Paras (@Matthew_Paras) May 3, 2021

Was pleasantly surprised by John Matsko after a few years of Bill Callahan.

Seemingly massive improvement. And I know it’s not so simple, but Matsko’s line played much better. https://t.co/XItGpEd9dc

— Eat Sleep WFT (@WFTTalk) May 3, 2021

I can't imagine why it would matter to the WFT; they aren't in line to get any 2021 compensatory picks. They can sign any veteran free agents they want as soon as they want without hurting their comp pick situation, which is zero. https://t.co/Wq3XOOK9eP

From Mel Kiper: Grade - B

"Washington instead went defense again in Round 1, taking linebacker Jamin Davis (19), a tackling machine with range in coverage. He's a great player, but I didn't see linebacker as an immediate need."

From NFL Now: The #Cowboys telegraphed the move by targeting and drafting LB Micah Parsons in Round 1, but now they made it official. Leighton Vander Esch's option was declined. pic.twitter.com/aunxzzszc9

— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) May 3, 2021

Jaylon Smith's 2022 base salary of $9.2 million becomes fully guaranteed on the fifth day of that league year. If the Cowboys release him after the season, they save $5m. Could save more as post-June 1 cut. Don't kick Vander Esch out the door just yet.

Make it make sense. I don't get why the Bears would do this.. https://t.co/act5mLtYyr

— Robbie Duncan (@RobbieDuncanOL) May 3, 2021

Along with the #Bears drafting future LT Teven Jenkins, Chicago also took OL Larry Borom in the 5th. In a year where everyone is tight against the cap and forced to make tough financial decisions, the Bears save $9M with this move. It will be a post-June 1 cut. https://t.co/2yCxjTi1yI

Wonder if he finds a way into some sort of role in Washington... https://t.co/XF2cBmza8y

"I didn't want to wake up on Friday and see that Aaron Rodgers was traded and I didn't do my due diligence. So I called Matt (LaFleur) and he said I'd be wasting my time."

-Kyle Shanahan on if he called the Packers to inquire about Aaron Rodgers

NFLPA executive director DeMaurice Smith said on a call today with rookie players and their agents that the union again will negotiate the right for players to opt out of the 2021 season, per source.

Dozens of players took the opt-out in 2020 amidst the COVID-19 pandemic.

— Tom Pelissero (@TomPelissero) May 3, 2021

This includes rookie minicamps, which DeMaurice Smith emphasized are voluntary. The union's recommendation is players don't show up to those either. So, some more drama over the next couple weeks. Nothing is mandatory until next month's full-squad minicamps.

— Tom Pelissero (@TomPelissero) May 3, 2021

The Cowboys did not select a quarterback in the draft and have not added one as a college free agent, but 2020 7th rounder, Ben DiNucci, will be eligible to participate in next week's rookie mini-camp since he played in less than 25% of the snaps. A tryout QB likely will be added
