It feels like just another day at the office in San Diego. Chargers front office personnel have been getting their work outs done in the weight room while those who weren’t running on the treadmill didn’t arrive until mid morning, including coach Norv Turner. He arrived around 10:30 a.m. PST.

The Kansas City Chiefs and QB Matt Cassel have reached an agreement on a new six-year deal, according to NFL Network’s Michael Lombardi.

There is some potential for trade activity at the front end of the draft. Where a move could be made is anyone’s guess, but it appears QB Mark Sanchez is the target that’s creating the stir. The Rams continue to say Sanchez is a possibility for them with the No. 2 pick, even though they have more pressing needs.

One of those nine prospects here — LB Brian Cushing — has a unique perspective on the event. The USC star grew up in the New York suburb of Park Ridge, N.J., as a huge fan of the draft.

Dallas Cowboys Executive Vice President Stephen Jones gave NFL Network an exclusive tour of the team’s war room at Valley Ranch. During this tour, we got a chance to look at the Cowboys’ original draft notes on Emmitt Smith from the 1990 NFL Draft.

The Dallas Cowboys do not have a draft pick until well into the second round. While the team’s history on draft day would suggest otherwise, Cowboys executive Stephen Jones has told NFL Network that the team’s draft war room will be a quiet place on Saturday. The team is content with its place and intends to stay at No. 51.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have dug into their past for inspiration on this draft day. New Buccaneers general manager Mark Dominik had the jerseys of former Tampa Bay draftees who went to multiple Pro Bowls hung in the war room at Buccaneers headquarters.

The Rams now hold the first pick of intrigue in the draft with the No. 2 overall pick. General manager Billy Devaney has received phone calls this morning about his team’s top pick, but did not mention any particulars.

An NFL GM told NFL Network that the Lions “think they have the next Jay Cutler” in Georgia QB Matthew Stafford.

You really have to applaud the Detroit Lions for going after the player that they really wanted in Matthew Stafford. The Lions were thinking that all the players at the top of this year’s draft board were pretty even, and figured that they were better off getting the player they really coveted.

Florida WR Percy Harvin‘s athleticism and game-breaking ability seem to be overriding character and injury concerns.

Alabama OT Andre Smith appears to have rebounded from his combine catastrophe and his shirtless 40-yard dash at a private workout.

Things have been overly crazy today with information overload that entails a lot of deciphering and massaging.

Ask any college football fan to point on a map where the best college football is played and they’ll likely point to the Southeastern corner of the country. And they’d be right — if they have the Atlantic Coast Conference, not the Southeastern Conference, in mind.

The men of the hour — all nine of them — finally made their way inside Radio City Music Hall on Friday afternoon. In less than 24 hours they’ll be back, and one of them will be the top overall pick in the 2009 NFL Draft.
