Shark Bites are the latest fantasy football news & NFL updates. Draft Sharks has been in business since 1999. And when we started, redraft was the dominant form of fantasy football. Check out what we've learned about this most basic form of fantasy football along the way.
The Cowboys acquired LB Kenneth Murray Jr. from the Titans this week, amid a significant remodeling of their LB corps. Neither of the two off-ball starters from last season -- Eric Kendricks and DeMarvion Overshown -- appears likely to take the field in Week 1 of 2025. Murray arrives after just one season of a two-year contract he signed with Tennessee, following a four-year stint with the chargers. He arrived as a first-round pick back in 2020.
The Commanders re-signed WR Noah Brown to a one-year deal worth "up to" $4.5 million, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports. Brown had emerged as Washington's No. 2 WR last season before missing the final four games with a lacerated kidney. WR Deebo Samuel's arrival earlier this offseason will likely push Brown down to third on the depth chart.
RB Raheem Mostert is signing a one-year, $2.1 million deal with the Raiders, according to NFL Network's Cameron Wolfe. Mostert was cut by the Dolphins in February after averaging a career-low 3.3 yards per carry last season.
Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill had surgery to address a ligament issue in his wrist earlier this offseason, HC Mike McDaniel said. Hill is expected to resume running "very soon," according to McDaniel, and should be cleared to catch passes before training camp.
We all assumed the Falcons would unload QB Kirk Cousins in some way this offseason. They committed to then rookie Michael Penix Jr. at the end of last year. So why keep the huge contract around, especially for a guy who hasn't had to play backup since 2014? But Yahoo's Charles Robinson says he believes Cousins might stay in Atlanta.
The Chargers have agreed to a one-year deal with WR Mike Williams. NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reports that it's worth "up to" $6 million.
The Seahawks signed WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling to a one-year deal worth "up to" $5.5 million. He joins a WR corps that shed both D.K. Metcalf and Tyler Lockett over the last week, giving Valdes-Scantling a shot to earn significant snaps.
The Eagles signed RB A.J. Dillon to a one-year deal. Dillon missed the entire 2024 season after a neck injury that dated back to 2023. He was medically cleared last week, though, and will now battle for a role behind Saquon Barkley in Philadelphia.
The Panthers have agreed to a one-year contract with former Cowboys RB Rico Dowdle. That move comes shortly after the team dumped Miles Sanders.
Former Jaguars TE Evan Engram will be joking HC Sean Payton and QB Bo Nix in Denver. His deal is worth $23 million with $16.5 million fully guaranteed. With a glaring hole at TE, Engram should have a prominent role with the Broncos.
The Jets will release QB Aaron Rodgers, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports. The move has been expected for a while but will become official after 4 pm ET on Wednesday. The Jets are taking on $49 million in dead money by dumping Rodgers. He's coming off an underwhelming season, resulting in a 5-12 record. Rodgers averaged just 229 passing yards per game on 6.7 yards per attempt -- tied for his worst mark as a starter.
The Rams are releasing WR Cooper Kupp, NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reports. Los Angeles spent the past month trying to trade Kupp but found no takers at the asking price. That's not a surprise considering:
A number of safeties have snagged big contracts at the start of NFL free agency, but the Bills haven't chased those types. Instead, they're bringing 2024 starter Damar Hamlin back on a one-year deal and importing former Commanders S Darrick Forrest on a one-year deal. There's obviously plenty of time for more moves -- including the NFL Draft -- but Buffalo might simply be setting up competition for the spot next to Taylor Rapp.
FOX Sports' Jordan Schultz reports that the Steelers are finalizing a one-year deal with RB Kenneth Gainwell. The 26-year-old (as of March 14) spent his first four seasons with the Eagles after arriving as a fifth-round pick.
The 49ers have agreed to a two-year deal with WR Demarcus Robinson. It'll pay $9.5 million total, with $6 million of that guaranteed. Robinson spent the past two years with the Rams, averaging 1.7 receptions and 26.5 yards per game.
The Saints have agreed to a three-year deal with TE Juwan Johnson. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports that it'll pay $30.75 million, with a max value of $34.5 million and $21.25 million guaranteed
The Ravens are signing WR DeAndre Hopkins to a one-year, $6 million deal, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
The Colts are finalizing a one-year deal with QB Daniel Jones. ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that it's expected to pay Jones $14 million. NFL Network's Tom Pelissero adds that the contract carries a $17.7 million max value
The Giants have agreed to a three-year deal with S Jevon Holland. ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that it'll pay $45.3 million, with $30.3 million guaranteed and a max value of $46.8 million. Holland is one of six defensive players the Giants have imported this week.
The Falcons have agreed to a two-year, $14 million deal with LB Divine Deablo, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. The deal includes $8 million in the first for the former Raider, who started all 37 of his appearances over the past three seasons.
