UPDATE (1:45 PM)-
Talking to teams in the top 10, expectation is the Giants will be really active with that No. 4 pick. I don't get the sense the Lions have been wowed with offers at No. 3, at least not yet, and they know they can get a stud defensive player standing pat.

Early fireworks? The #Redskins have begun to receive calls from teams interested in trading up to the No. 2 overall selection, sources say. They aren’t intent on moving out of the pick many believe will be #OSU DE Chase Young, but they are listening. Teams are laying groundwork.
