The Cleveland Browns and New York Giants are fielding trade inquiries for their early picks in this week’s NFL Draft, ESPN reported Tuesday.
The Browns pick second and the Giants third on Thursday, with the Tennessee Titans holding the No. 1 spot in the three-day draft in Green Bay, Wis.
“Neither team is outwardly rejecting those overtures,” ESPN said of the inquiries that have come in over the past 48 hours.
Sources said multiple teams are looking to move up to draft Colorado two-way standout Travis Hunter, Penn State pass rusher Abdul Carter or Boise State running back Ashton Jeanty.
NFL Network and USA Today reported on Monday the Titans had rejected at least one offer — from the Giants — for the No. 1 pick and are set on selecting Miami quarterback Cam Ward.
ESPN’s latest mock drafts have Cleveland selecting Hunter at No. 2, New York taking Carter at No. 3 and the Las Vegas Raiders grabbing Jeanty at No. 6.
As of Tuesday morning, all 32 teams still have their original first-round picks on Thursday night. According to ESPN Research, this is the closest to the start of a draft without any first-round trades in the common draft era (since 1967).
