Rob Gronkowski has been practicing "without restrictions."

Gronk said he's "super excited" and that "it's going super well." Gronk is 100% and will continue to practice during the team's mandatory minicamp this week. He probably hasn't been on a team with so many other weapons around him, but Gronkowski still offers elite touchdown upside and is the top option at tight end this season.

Victor Cruz has agreed to one-year deal with the Bears.

Cruz said on his Instagram that "The Giants will forever be family. But for now, Bear down!!!" It didn't look like the previously dynamic slot receiver had much left in the tank last season because of his devastating Achilles injury, but Chicago is giving him a chance to make the team. The Bears have one of the weakest wideout groups in the league, so Cruz has a shot, but it would be a surprise if he ever became a fantasy factor again.

Andy Reid talks up second-year receiver Demarcus Robinson.

Robinson was a fourth round pick last year, and Reid identified him when talking of replacing Jeremy Maclin. Reid said Robinson has a lot of ability and has had a "good offseason," but that he's "not saying he's that guy right now." The former Florida Gator had maturity issues and was suspended multiple times in college, but Robinson has ability and is someone to keep an eye on, particularly in dynasty leagues.

The Bills signed receiver Rod Streater.

Streater was on a visit with Buffalo yesterday, and they signed him. Streater joins former Raiders teammate Andre Holmes on the team. With second round pick Zay Jones week-to-week with a knee sprain, these veterans will have a jump start on the number two receiver spot opposite Sammy Watkins. It seems like Andre Holmes—who has impressed the Bills so far—is the favorite, however.

LeSean McCoy is recruiting free agent receiver Jeremy Maclin to the Bills.

McCoy expressed optimism at his charity softball game, according to ESPN, saying "don't be surprised if it happens." Of course, McCoy and Maclin played together with the Eagles. Bills quarterback Tyrod Taylor, who was also at McCoy's charity softball game, said he would "love" to have Maclin on the team and plans on reaching out to him. The Bills should be considered one of the favorites for Maclin.

Ryan Tannehill has "no restrictions," according to head coach Adam Gase.

Tannehill dealt with a partially torn ACL, but he didn't need to undergo any reconstructive surgery, letting the knee heal with just rest and rehab. They're lucky, because a reconstruction could have caused him to miss the start of this season, along with valuable time through OTAs in training camp as the team heads into the second season in Adam Gase's offense. The Dolphins are likely to be a run-based offense around Jay Ajayi, so Tannehill isn't likely to be a QB1 this season.

Chiefs head coach Andy Reid says Tyreek Hill will get a chance to replace Jeremy Maclin as number one receiver.

Reid said Hill will get the opportunity to take the "Z" receiver role left by Maclin, which is typically the receiver that gets the most targets in Reid's offense. The Chiefs have made it very clear how high they are on Hill, with talks of his snaps doubling from his rookie season. Reid also said he expects everyone to chip in and help replace Maclin, including Chris Conley, Albert Wilson, and Demarcus Robinson. The dynamic Hill is likely to be the Chiefs' number one receiver, and he has pretty high upside. He's definitely worth a selection as a top 25 receiver in fantasy drafts.
