Saints, Patriots and Eagles supposedly in on Emmanuel Sanders. He would fit a need for the Saints with Ted Ginn on IR but I don't see how they have the cap room unless they included Bridgewater in the deal.

This is my own speculation. I wonder if Minnesota has inquired about Le'veon Bell.

It's clear that Pittsburgh won't move him. But after giving Kirk Cousins three years of guaranteed money and seeing Dalvin Cook still can't stay healthy, it's worth a shot.

Swing for the fences.

Well, that's probably not a bad idea for the Broncos. Or Bridgewater. He could get a few chances to show that he can still be a QB in this league and the Broncos definitely don't have anything to lose by giving him a shot.

I don't understand either the GB or Det moves

But as Bear fan I am not complaining especially to have Dix gone

At least with Tate you could say it'll mean even more playing time and targets for two better receivers. They also got a 3rd round pick for this draft rather than waiting for whatever comp pick they would've gotten next year. The trade makes them weaker but at least it makes sense on some level. I don't understand the Packers decision at all.

Ha-Ha hasn't played well this year.

i guess they are looking at future, kind of, and know they weren't getting comp pick for him as they plan on being aggressive in FA.

it makes them weaker for sure because their other safeties also suck and don't have the ability HHCD has. maybe there were some locker room issues as well, HHCD indicated that he won't be coming back next year but iirc, that comment seemed more like GB wasn't going to re-sign him rather than he didn't want to be there.

edit.




edit.2. what, PFF has him as #3 safety in the league?? wouldn't have guessed that.

I'd say Snacks was my favourite trade of the bunch. Really like that move for the Lions.
