The NFL Draft is less than a month away and the rumors mill is cranking. There are multiple big-name prospects taking visits, moves that could give an indication about which players NFL teams are targeting. There are also a few notable free agents left on the market. Here are all the latest news and rumors you need to know.
Browns Hosting Dalvin Cook
The Browns appear to at least have some level of interest in Florida State RB Dalvin Cook, as they're bringing him in for a visit.

It's an interesting move, since the Browns have Isaiah Crowell and Duke Johnson already on the roster. There's no chance the Browns take Cook at No. 1 overall and even No. 12 seems early given the current roster outlook. But perhaps the Browns are doing their work in the event off-the-field problems cause Cook to slide to the second round. It appears the Browns are high on Cook.
Mike Williams Latest
The former Clemson star will be one of the first two wide outs taken and should be the first one selected. So it's not a surprise he's drawing plenty of interest from teams in the first round. Williams recently said he has visits scheduled with the Browns, Ravens and Titans, among others. All three teams hold picks in the teens, but there's a real chance he's gone before they are on the clock.

Among the pre-draft visitors to the #Steelers today: #Tennessee QB Josh Dobbs and #TexasTech QB Patrick Mahomes.

At this rate, it appears that every team looking for a QB either this year or in a few years has checked out Mahomes. The gunslinger is raw, but has plenty of upside. He's a potential first round pick, but might need to sit a year or two.
Interest In Adrian Peterson
Of all the remaining free agents, Peterson is the biggest left unsigned. The New England Patriots are bringing him in for a visit, but appears they aren't the only ones with interest.

1.) 3 to 5 teams interested in him
2.) Adrian has not set a price.
3.) Adrian has not turned down any offer.
Veterans of Peterson's age tend to have to wait longer to sign in free agency. He'll end up with a new team at some point, but it's unclear what teams are included in those 3-5. The Pats are obviously one, with other teams like the Bucs, Giants and Raiders potential fits.
