Georgia defensive lineman Jalen Carter will not participate in the workout portion of this week's scouring combine but will conduct interviews with teams and undergo a physical, according to his agent.

Drew Rosenhaus and agent Ryan Matha told NFL teams that Carter will work out at his Georgia pro day on March 15.

Carter announced he was forgoing his senior season and entering the 2023 draft after helping Georgia win its second consecutive College Football Playoff National Championship last month.

The Chicago Bears have been approached by a number of teams about trading the No. 1 overall pick and they are said to be "leaning toward" moving the selection, according to sources.

In January, Bears general manager Ryan Poles reaffirmed his commitment to quarterback Justin Fields, who they drafted 11th overall in 2021. He added that he'd have to be "blown away" to draft a quarterback prospect in April. 

Since 1967, the No. 1 pick has been traded 12 times before the start of the NFL Draft.

Caleb Williams is widely expected to be the top quarterback selected in the 2024 NFL Draft and was recently asked which team he'd most like to play for.

"I'd probably go to the Dolphins," Williams said when asked which team he'd most like to play for in an interview with People Magazine's Lanae Brody. "I also would be able to play with Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle, and Mike Gesicki. The defense isn't bad. That's probably my No. 1 spot."

"I also like the colors," he said. "The colors are pretty cool, and the weather's good."

Williams also mentioned the San Francisco 49ers, Las Vegas Raiders and Atlanta Falcons as teams he'd most like to join in the NFL.

The Falcons, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Arizona Cardinals, Indianapolis Colts and Houston Texans are widely expected to be amongst the contenders for the worst record in 2023.

The Dallas Cowboys have a franchise quarterback in Dak Prescott but they are "intrigued" by Ohio State's C.J. Stroud, according to a report.

Prescott is entering the third year of a four-year deal. 

For 2023, Prescott makes $31 million but, thanks to past payments, he has a cap number of $49.13 million. Next year, the cap charge increases to $52.13 million.

Given the structure of the deal, Prescott will become a free agent in 2025.

Potential No. 1 overall pick Bryce Young has drawn high praise from former Minnesota Vikings general manager Rick Spielman.

"I think he has a lot of Patrick Mahomes style to him, and by that I mean he is one of the best off-schedule throwers that I've seen coming out of the collegiate game," Spielman said. "He does a great job for a small quarterback with his vision down the field. His anticipation and the way he throws the ball and he throws receivers open."

Young completed 64.5 percent of his passes for 3,328 yards, 32 touchdowns and five interceptions in 12 games played for Alabama this past season.

The biggest concerns about Young are related to his size. He's listed at 6-foot, 194 pounds on Alabama's website.

"Now, if this guy was 6-1, 210 pounds, he's a generational type quarterback, in my opinion," Spielman said. "But since he's so small, everybody's going to be nervous as heck to take him, because one, is he going to be durable enough to go through a preseason, go through 17 games, go through -- if they get all the way to the Super Bowl -- that many games and stay healthy? So that's a big concern I think with a lot of teams."

ESPN has Brock Purdy jumping from 262nd overall to fourth in their redraft of the 2022 NFL Draft.

The San Francisco 49ers selected Purdy with the final pick in the draft and he emerged as a productive starting quarterback following the injury to Jimmy Garoppolo.

The New York Jets owned the fourth overall pick and selected Sauce Gardner, who went first overall in ESPN's redraft, and instead get a quarterback to replace Zach Wilson here. Wilson was the No. 2 pick in 2021 and does not appear to be a starting quarterback in the future.
