The Dallas Cowboys are pursuing interior line depth after Cooper Beebe landed on IR with a right ankle injury. Dallas hosted centers Jacob Bayer and Wesley French and guard Thomas Perry for workouts as they evaluate options behind Beebe. With Beebe out, Brock Hoffman is expected to step in at center, giving the staff an early look at how the unit might function without its starting anchor. Bayer brings Bills familiarity, French Colts experience, and Perry a Middlebury Shrine Game background, signaling a broad search spanning NFL and college ranks to stabilize the line.

The Indianapolis Colts are gearing up for the 2025 season, and one player to watch is center Wesley French. At 24, French is in his third NFL season but faced significant challenges last year due to an ankle injury that placed him on injured reserve. In 2023, he played 270 snaps primarily at center and a bit at right guard, but with Tanor Bortolini likely starting at center and Danny Pinter in contention, French's prospects appear limited. He may find his best opportunity on the practice squad, particularly if his versatility at guard shines during training camp.

The San Francisco 49ers are gearing up for the 2025 NFL Draft with a promising 10 selections, including a coveted No. 11 overall pick. Their prospects have been bolstered by the impressive performance of quarterback Sam Darnold, who played for the Minnesota Vikings last season, which could net the 49ers an additional compensatory pick at the end of the fourth round. Darnold's standout season saw him throw for a career-high 4,319 yards, leading the Vikings to a 14-3 record and earning a Pro Bowl selection. General Manager John Lynch expressed enthusiasm over the team's rookie contributions in 2024 and the opportunity to expand their draft class.

The 49ers are projected to receive three compensatory picks due to losses in free agency, including those tied to Darnold and defensive end Chase Young. They will also gain a seventh-round selection for losing Ray-Ray McCloud. With a total of ten picks, five are expected to be within the first 111 choices, allowing the 49ers to strengthen their roster as they aim for further success.
