Big Turk Posted October 31, 2023 Posted October 31, 2023 (edited) Chicago going to likely want a 2nd for Johnson to recoup their loss of their own 2nd in the trade for Montez Sweat? Edited October 31, 2023 by Big Turk 2 1 Quote

This is why bad teams stay bad, making dumb moves like this. Got absolutely no production from Claypool who they gave up a 2nd for last year and dumped him for nothing basically. Now trade another 2nd which will likely be a top 40 pick in the draft for a guy who is going to be a UFA. WTF are they doing??

Why not just sign him in free agency then for free? 2 Quote

He's a very good player at a premium position. Redskins are already paying Chase Young huge money, and have huge dollars invested in their 2 DT's. There is no way they are tagging Sweat on top of that or giving him a giant contract. They would have been eating half the cap on their D-Line almost. Edited October 31, 2023 by Big Turk 1 Quote

"Central Michigan is investigating photos that show a man resembling Michigan Wolverines staff member Connor Stalions on its sideline for the Sept. 1 opener at Michigan State. Athletic director Amy Folan, in a statement to ESPN, said the school became aware of the photos late Monday. The man resembling Stalions is dressed in Central Michigan-issued gear and standing alongside several of the team's coaches, while wearing a bench credential. The credential reads "VB" and appears to be designated for the visiting bench area, which is different than a general sideline pass. It gives access to the designated area between the 20 yard lines, which is reserved for players, coaches, trainers and equipment staff. Schools are given a finite amount of passes for each game." https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/38787197/cmu-investigating-michigan-connor-stalions-potential-sideline-presence Why this?

Washington makes out like bandits here, getting a late first basically for a guy they might have gotten a 3rd round comp for. Well played Quote

If the price was a 4th or 5th maybe, but a 2nd? Which is going to be #32-#35, not sure that how it helps the current team. Quote

MikePJ76 Posted October 31, 2023 Posted October 31, 2023 Sounds like the vikings have traded for Josh Dobbs from arizona. Quote
