Clemson QB Boyd will submit Draft paperwork

Clemson junior QB Tajh Boyd will file paperwork for the 2013 NFL Draft in order to receive an evaluation from the advisory board.

This does not mean Boyd is declaring, instead he is only weighing his options. According to Boyd, there’s no round or spot that would sway his decision one way or the other. It is tough to find a player that improved more this season than the Clemson quarterback, specifically with his pocket movement and awareness. Boyd's height will be a topic of discussion, however.

Simms: Josh Allen & Rosen have highest floors

Pro Football Talk's Chris Simms believes Wyoming QB Josh Allen and UCLA QB Josh Rosen have the highest floors among the 2018 QB prospects.

We've heard this with Rosen all along, but the Allen comment caught us off guard. "I have a hard time believing Josh Allen, who has the highest wonderlic score, we've seen him in a pro-style offense... the bust potential is not there." Simms is on an island with this opinion, but it might turn out to be true. Some decision makers in the NFL clearly love Allen, and he has checked the boxes along the way during the draft process.

Is Baker Mayfield to the Jets a 'done deal?'

Draft Insider Tony Pauline passes along word that some believe Oklahoma QB Baker Mayfield being drafted by the Jets is a "done deal."

Pauline has been on this path for a long time, and we believe it. The Jets traded up for the No. 3 pick early in the process. Perhaps they have a clear target in mind, and it would make sense if it is Mayfield as he fits the Jets' offense extremely well. We expect this to be a consensus opinion by the time the draft rolls around.

King: Dorsey unlikely to reveal plan at No. 1

The MMQB's Peter King believes it is unlikely Browns GM John Dorsey reveals his plan with the No. 1 pick until the draft begins.

This was backed up by Chris Simms, saying Dorsey might only tell the owner the night before the draft. It is clear Dorsey wants to keep the selection a secret, but even keeping it from the top ranked executives he brought in from the Packers would be a bit of a surprise. In previous years we've had a firm grasp of who the No. 1 selection would be. That might not be the case this year.

Breer: Expect Davenport to be a top 16 pick

The MMQB's Albert Breer believes UTSA edge rusher Marcus Davenport will be picked in the No. 10 to No. 16 range.

As of now that spans the Raiders to the Ravens. "Some believe he has a higher ceiling than Bradley Chubb," Breer writes. We've mentioned how Davenport changed his body over the years, adding strength and size while keeping his movement skills. His best attribute is his long arm, but questions remain if Davenport can win isolated against top tackles.

D.J. Moore visits Cowboys, Bills, & Patriots

Maryland WR D.J. Moore visited the Cowboys, Bills, and Patriots this week.

Moore is one of the top receivers in this class among Alabama's Calvin Ridley and SMU's Courtland Sutton. All three of the teams Moore visited this week have picks in the range of 19-to-23. This seems to be where at least one of the three receivers listed above will be selected but there doesn't seem to be a consensus of which. Moore is a crisp route-runner that posted an athletic composite score in the 97th percentile and has a good chance to be selected in the middle of the first round.

NCAA opts not to loosen redshirt policy

The NCAA has declined to implement a proposed rule change which would allow players appearing in four games to remain eligible for a redshirt.

As the rule currently stands, players are eligible for redshirts only if they've appeared in three or fewer games for a given season. The intent of the proposed change was to allow for some wiggle room with injuries in an attempt to cut down on the number of players who are forced to burn redshirts solely due to their serving as injury replacements late in the season.

Fits like glove? Sutton visiting Cowboys

SMU WR Courtland Sutton is taking an official predraft visit to the Dallas Cowboys on Wednesday.

Tip of the cap to Rotoworld's Josh Norris, here. As soon as the Cowboys opted to release Dez Bryant, draft pundits and fans the world 'round fell over themselves to project Sutton as a future pass-catcher for Dak Prescott. It's a logical enough fit, at least assuming that Dallas would like a similarly-bodied wideout. Dez measures 6-foot-2, 215 pounds, while Sutton has checked out at 6-foot-3, 218 pounds this spring. Adding fuel to this speculation fire, the Cowboys were showing interest in Sutton even before they parted ways with the combative Bryant, with HC Jason Garrett and WR coach Sanjay Lal putting him through his drill paces during his late March pro day. The SMU standout is in play to be the first receiver drafted next week. For reference's sake, the Cowboys own the No. 19 overall pick for Day 1.

Oklahoma RB Sermon avoids serious injury

Oklahoma RB coach Jay Boulware said that sophomore RB Trey Sermon will be "OK" after sustaining an undisclosed injury during Saturday's spring game.

Sermon (6'1/214) suffered the injury -- speculation has it as a leg issue -- when he was twisted around in a pile during Saturday's scrimmage. He then required some assistance from teammates to leave the field. Looks like he'll survive, though, with Boulware saying, "God worked everything out for him, his family and obviously us, but he first and foremost. He'll be OK." This isn't as specific a medical update as you'd like to see, but at the very least, Oklahoma's staff would seem to be encouraged by his outlook. Sermon rushed for 744 yards (6.1 YPC) and five touchdowns last season while working (ostensibly) as backup to Rodney Anderson. While Anderson has opted to return to Norman for one more season, rather than declare for the draft this winter, Sermon is an integral piece to the Sooners offense in his own right.

NESN report: Patriots interested in Rosen

NESN's Doug Kyed reports that the New England Patriots are interested in UCLA QB Josh Rosen.

Oh boy. But before this potentially apocalyptic move could happen, two things would need to occur. First, Rosen would need to begin to slide in the draft. That's certainly a possibility, especially if he were to slip past Denver's pick at No. 5. Should that slide take place -- we've seen the quarterback drop in a few mocks -- the Patriots would then need to pull off a trade to move up, likely requiring both their No. 23 and No. 31 picks in the first. And maybe a little extra juice beyond that. NESN's Kyed floats the 49ers at the No. 9 selection as a logical trade partner. Before mass panic sets in over the Patriots owning the NFL for another decade-plus, Kyed does note that while New England is interested in Rosen, the degree of interest, here, is less certain.

Texas A&M lands four-star DT DeMarvin Leal

Texas A&M received a verbal commitment from four-star 2019 DT DeMarvin Leal.

Leal (6'4/280) commits to the Aggies just days after attending the A&M spring game. He's the third defensive line pledge in the cycle for HC Jimbo Fisher, who started slow on the recruiting front with his new program this winter before coming on like gangbusters to close the 2018 cycle in strong fashion. Fisher and crew are off and running with the 2019 class, though, with Leal's pledge helping to place them at No. 5 on the 247Sports team rankings board. For his part, the defensive tackle is one of the more intriguing defensive linemen in the country, as he's shown plus skills at both defensive tackle and defensive end. He offers a strong burst off the snap and is one of the quicker line prospects in the 2019 class.

Tennessee QB Dormady transfers to Houston

Tennessee senior QB Quinten Dormady transferred to Houston as a graduate.

Dormady opened the 2017 season as Tennessee's starter, but struggled early on and eventually was supplanted by redshirt freshman Jarrett Guarantano in October. The 6-foot-4, 216-pounder was also dealing with a shoulder injury last autumn, one which required season-ending surgery. All told, Dormady threw for 925 yards (55.5% completions) with a 6/6 TD/INT ratio over the course of six games played during the most recent campaign. At Houston, he'll be eligible to play immediately as a graduate and will look to unseat D'Eriq King as starter for the Cougars.
