BIG FA signings/trades

Browner is older and got suspended. He won't get as much as Maxwell.

He's older, but he's currently better than Maxwell and won't be looking for a long contract.

He's looking at one or two year deal with a hefty salary in 2015.

With the demand for CBs, someone will pay him.
 
Listening to Philly radio, they are jumping for joy and certain that Bradford and 1st rnd pick will be flipped to move up and draft Mariotta.

Assuming that a team picking in the top 10 would want Bradford is a bold assumption.

I think Kelly just loves Bradford for whatever reason.
 
Maybe Kelly already has another handshake trade in place? For now kind of have to give him the benefit of the doubt that he has a plan working.
 
I don't like Seattle getting Graham. Seattle is a running team. Graham can't block at all. He's kind of a *****. Part of why he struggled this year is that teams were being physical with him. He was unstoppable as a second or third weapon but when he became the man, he was more defensible.

they now can play two TE sets with only 1 WR. Graham is practically a huge WR, they don't need him to block. Seattle just got a new offensive dimension.
Still don't think that's worth a top 5 Center and a late first, but it just might

I get that but that is going away from their identity and that is dangerous. This feels like they know their window may close as they start having to pay guys. This is a total win now move.


It Seattle's run game is no longer dominant, can Wilson carry them as a passer and not just a good decision maker? They better grab a WR too because it Graham is the best weapon, I'm not scared.

I think Graham complements Wilson and Lynch just fine, actually better than most WRs. Just imagine the Play Action threat every snap
 
Now hearing Eagles and Rams also swapping 1st round picks. That would give Philly 10th overall pick. That makes a huge difference. If true, it's a good deal for the Eagles. They have the room to take Bradford's contract if they can't deal him away. They can still draft Marriotta at 10 if they really want him.
 
Rams deny swapping a first pick.


In other words- Chip Kelly is still a crazed maniac
 
Demarco Murray possibly to the Eagles? What? how?

I bet Romo is shaking in his panties.

how? Aj Hawk is basically washed up at this point

And he was never that great in the first place. Typical slow, plodding Bengal LB. You would think they'd want more athletic LBs to deal with Le'Veon Bell.

Obviously we could use him but he got his ring this year so he'll go for the money.

I don't know. He's already made a ton of cash. Not saying he would come cheap, but I can see him giving a discount to play with a winner and his hometown team.


The Steelers can get the money for this is they get a deal done with Ben.


I'd be shocked if it happened, but the Steelers can do it if they really want him.

I don't see it happening but today's paper noted that if they cut Troy now it would save $3.75 mill against the cap but if they wait until June 1 they will save $6 mill. Just sayin'.
