NFL Trade Deadline Day! (Rumors & Rumblings) (1 Viewer)
- Thread starter Gottabesweet
- Start date
Being the demand for RB's is at an all-time low, and factoring in the contract you'd be taking on, I could see the Jets only asking a 3rd rounder for Bell. If you are a team like KC, that is probably pretty reasonable. I can't see the Eagles or Bills doing that, because they just invested 2nd and 3rd round picks in rookie RB's, and already have solid(though nowhere near Bell's level) veteran options.
No idea. When this report first sprung up this morning I figured Jets would be trying to almost give him away to make someone else inherit his 2020 guarantees. Now hearing from both Mort who was just on Sirius and Jet's beat writer whose tweet I posted that they are not actively shopping him so much as teams are calling to see if he is available and you can see in that tweet from Jets beat writer who says the price is high. If the price is high, he'll be reporting to One Jet Drive tomorrow.

Need for a playoff team is always a driving force in overcoming obstacles like a simple Day 3 pick.
If KC CHOSE to run the ball, they might not be 5-3... but McCoy is 5.3 ypc so this is more OC issue. Houston is getting good mileage from Hyde (4.2ypc) but maybe Duke has let them down as a 3rd Down RB... 17 or 27 targets?

To be fair, KC may be very wary of overworking McCoy, as he's in his 30's, and has been injury prone in the last 2 years. He's also lost a fumble in each of the last 2 games, and seems increasingly sloppy with the ball in general. He's always had a bit of a loaf of bread style, but it seems especially notable this year.
He can keep the defense off the field more, that is a kind of helping...
Titans worked out Josh Johnson and Taylor Hienicke. I wonder if Mariota could be on the move. I'd love to see him in Chicago, but I could see Elway being interested in a top prospect, who might just need a change of scenery. Especially with the likelihood that Flacco is possibly done for the season, and Drew Lock isn't ready yet.
ETA: If Mariota did go to Denver, I think between that, and Sanders being dealt, that Noah Fant's value would be stabilized a bit.

in the nba, even after the notification is put into the league office, there is still a long call with all parties where they have to run down a huge list of details to make sure everyone agrees. I assume that is the same in all sports and that takes time after the deadline.

If Dalton is benched, he should be traded. He's an upgrade for like half the league. Bears and TItans would probably be all over that.
The Bengals might be too stupid to do that though.

Bengals should be blowing it all up. Dalton, Green, Eifert, Glenn, Bernard(even though he just re-signed) anyone who isn't either a building block(Mixon, Jackson) or has too big a cap hit(Dunlap, Atkins, Boyd) should be very available.

Edit: Disregard.
I agree they should look to deal Dalton. I think it's something more likely to occur in the offseason.

Josh Johnson is the most-traveled quarterback in the history of the NFL. He's been on the roster of 13 different teams.

Not picking on you specifically...
When are people going to give up on this? He wasn't great when last he played. He hasn't played for years. The league does not want him.
He. Ain't. Coming. Back. Ever.

He thinks he's worth 20 million.+ and is stubbornly holding to that. Otherwise i think he might get signed? Maybe not now, post settlement...

Nothing says "building something special" like trading for a mercurial 33 year old cornerback.
Of course, the trade does probably raise the average IQ in both buildings - so call it a win-win.

Jets beat writer claims that everyone except Darnold and Quinnen are on the table right now.
If that is true, teams should be tripping over each other to trade a 1st rounder for Jamal Adams. He might be the best safety in the NFL, and nobody notices because he's on the Jets. If he were on say, Dallas, he'd have all-pro talk.

I didn't know you could trade guys who are on IR. Like, how would he pass a physical?

And let's not discount the positive influence he'll be in the locker room.
You're right. Hadn't thought about that.

Maybe not, but its possible. Maybe include a pick swap later in the draft, like add a 3 and get a 4 in return?
2 hours left, can't help but feel we aren't going to see much until like 15 minutes before the deadline.

Oh those J E T S jets jets jets...
(Rotoworld) ESPN's Rich Cimini reports Jets SS Jamal Adams is a "hot name" ahead of Tuesday's trade deadline.
Analysis: We would assume more than half the league is interested, but NFL.com's Ian Rapoport reports the Cowboys have "touched base." 24-year-old Adams is one of Gang Green's best players, but coach Adam Gase doesn't like him. Who exactly does Gase like? The move is not about Adams' contract, as he is under team control through 2021. Neither Gase nor his handpicked front office seem to have any real idea what they are doing.

You can't build for the future of you're not crappy in the present!
And wouldn't you rather have your fan base have hope than real expectations?

He's on IR. He'll never see the locker room. Rams dump salary and an expiring contract, Fins get a draft pick. Maybe a compensatory pick as well if someone signs him.

A comp pick is probably unlikely. I can't imagine the Dolphins not being among the most active teams in the offseason.

I slag on Rotoworld's snarky, reductive, and usually inaccurate commentary often, but this ..... this could have come down from the mountain on stone tablets.
