Here we go: Titans have gotten calls from multiple teams inquiring about what it will take to trade for 2nd overall pick, per league source.

Eagles are shopping LB Mychal Kendricks. Seeking a 2nd round pick in return. Teams are balking at that price but something could happen

Ian Rapoport @RapSheet 1h1 hour ago
Two #Eagles defenders who teams believe could be had for the right price: DB Brandon Boykin & LB Mychal Kendricks.

History suggests when Chip doesn't want a player, he gives little regard to value. Opposing teams should pounce on Boykin/Kendricks [1/2]

Sheil Kapadia @SheilKapadia · 1h 1 hour ago
Both are young, ascending players who are great athletes and have been productive in the league. [2/2]

This is Chip trying to come up with more picks to package together to move up and get Mariota.

[Bretsky]

we also should probably alladmit that we need 2 real ILB's if we are gonna keep using this abortion of a defensive scheme

Eric Kendricks, ILB, UCLA is one we are already being linked to

Denzel Perryman, ILB, Miami is another to watch. i am fine with getting an ILB from the U

gotta give props to Red as these are two guys he called out long ago we might nab

Could be worse. I like Hager and Samrailo. Kendricks and Huerman are solid.

[Joemailman]

Interest must be picking up. Looks like Draft Insider has crashed.

[mraynrand]

Do any of these players have "it"?

Yep.

Eagles now rumored by many teams to be looking to trade for Marcus Mariota.

Brian Burke at Advanced NFL Stats has been doing a mock draft based on his Bayesian Probability Draft Predictions

Brian Burke @Adv_NFL_Stats · 12s 13 seconds ago
Not many ILBs there for GB. Could go DL with Phillips. CBs will be there too: Collins or Jones.

Has Denver looking at linebacker (Kendricks) but more likely OL. For Bretsky, Gordon is available to Packers.

[pbmax]

Demovsky and ESPN believe Goldman might be available and the pick at 30 according to a mock run by Polian, McShay and the ESPN beat guys.

http://espn.go.com/blog/green-bay-packers/post/_/id/20246/mock-draft-redo-eddie-goldman-to-packers

However, he might be when the Packers' turn comes later this evening, and with the benefit of hindsight -- something Thompson won't have -- Goldman would have been the better pick.

"I would've gone Eddie Goldman here," Polian said after the Collins pick in the mock draft. "I think he's a much better fit."

[mraynrand]

I'd take Rudy Wells before I'd pick Goldman.

Here is you trading partner:

Ian Rapoport @RapSheet 27m27 minutes ago
On Bryce Petty, it’s under consideration I’m told RT @Kat_Terrell: @RapSheet But Round 1 to the Saints? Not sure if I buy it.

[pbmax]

I'd take Rudy Wells before I'd pick Goldman.

Here is that mock draft. Demovsky initially choose Collins before the reports of multiple failures of drug tests in college apparently. He later posted the choice would have been Goldman in that case.

Wells was available.
