• Marcus Peters will be a strong candidate in Kansas City at 18. Coach Andy Reid visited the player who some call the best cornerback in the draft this week in his hometown of Oakland. When you’ve got Peyton Manning, Philip Rivers and Derek Carr in your division—for this year at least—it’s probably smart to invest in fast, physical cornerbacks.

Another interesting thing I’m hearing is about the handful of teams scheduled to pick early in the second round calling teams late in the first. The early-second teams to make sure they’re not shut out of positions that could see a heavy run on players as tonight’s first round winds down.

Two players seems to be at the center of interest: Pitt tackle T.J. Clemmings, who might be at the bottom of the first-year-starter tackle market, and rising-star wideout Nelson Agholor of USC, seen as an immediate contributor or starter to a contending team (maybe Carolina at 25 or New England at 32). Clemmings is the tackle for some teams who straddle the line between instant help and project, while Agholor is fascinating because he can play in the slot, outside and as a returner.

I could see Tennessee (at 33), Oakland (35), the Jets (37) and Jacksonville (36) being aggressive for a wideout, if they didn’t land one earlier in the first round. I could see Tampa Bay (34) trying to get up for Clemmings.
