How far would you be willing to trade up for the right talent? Suppose the top of the draft goes QB crazy. Four of the top five teams need a QB. The Rams like their QB, their coach has a relationship with a stud player’s Dad (Bruce/Jake Matthews), and they need playmakers. Atlanta sits at pick 6, and one of their team needs is DL. 1. HOU – Bridgewater 2. STL – Matthews 3. JAX – Manziel 4. CLE – Bortles 5. OAK On the Value Chart, the #5 pick is 1,700 points and the #14 is 1,100 points. The Bears’ second rounder is worth 390. Given that Oakland has notoriously bad front office decisions, let’s say they’re willing to trade their first ro…

http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/7859190...-Bill-for-picks The Jags got what seems to be the going rate in a 3rd and 5th rounder. Good deal for the Bills, decent for the Jags. The Jags have depth at DT so the loss won't be that big, but Stroud was a real good player for them... but will he ever be the same after his injury?

Orton 16-27, 164 yards, 1 TD Forte 24 rushes, 131 yards, 1 TD, 4 catches, 33 yards Davis- 4 catches, 45 yards Olsen- 4 catches, 47 yards, 1 TD Defense- 5 sacks, 3 INT, 1 TD Gould- 1/2 on FG Bears 24-9

...to be their DC!

The Jacksonville Jaguars have released OT Jordan Black

Cool article on a local product. Peace http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/footb...0209-story.html

Anyone interested in an all-Long right side? Even diminished he has to be better than Mills.

According to profootballtalk.com Jake Long is looking for at least $10 million annually. That would put him up there with dude from Cleveland as highest pd LT whose deal was 7 yrs $84 mil with $48 gtd. How many are willing to give that to him knowing hes had injuries for past 3 yrs now

Rotoworld... Plenty of cap space?? WHAAA?? Longs injuries scare the hell outta me.

NBCSports.com's Tom Curran reports the Dolphins are nearing a contract agreement with Michigan OT Jake Long. The deal would make Long the No. 1 overall pick. The Dolphins began talks with Long's agent, Tom Condon, two weeks ago and never engaged in serious deliberations with any other player. Curran writes that with Long off the board, St. Louis is "a lock" to use the No. 2 pick on a defensive player. UVA DE Chris Long is reportedly "very confident" he'll be the Rams' choice

http://www.nfl.com/draft/story?id=09000d5d...mp;confirm=true Looks as if we may know at least what the first pick in the draft is going to be

RT @jthom1: LT Jake Long signs four-year deal with Rams. Can earn up to $36 million. Only 9/year? Christ. For an extra 2 million annually minus 1 year, Long >>>> Bushrod. Ugh

http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/7895722...away-from-Colts After some serious thought, I now have generally come to agree with the post season moves. This one though I would like to know how involved Angelo was with this if at all. if not , why not.

https://www.nfl.com/news/bears-acquire-wr-jakeem-grant-in-trade-with-dolphins It appears we are done with Webster and in walk Jakeem Grant. Which version are we getting as the quote below from his old coach doesn't make me optimistic? This is relatively low risk as it's a 2023 6th Rd pick but the "get more draft picks" crowd won't be happy. His skill set mirrors Cohen's quite a bit, likely less shiftiness more long speed. I can't see us keeping both on the roster long term. https://www.thestar.com/sports/football/2021/10/05/ap-source-dolphins-send-jakeem-grant-to-bears-for-2023-pick.html “Obviously Jakeem struggled a bit. ... He’s been very productive…

So apparently dude got is having some issues with a vehicular homie in which he was caught Street racing , crashed, and killed people. I’m off homie completely.

Ryan Poles will bring Jalen Carter in for an interview.

I was doing a mock draft and somehow Jalen Ramsey fell to the Bears at 11. Is that reasonable at all? Looking at the draft, I see the following teams ahead of us with a potential CB need: DAL - Former 1st rounder Morris Claiborne, Orlando Scandrick coming back. BAL - They need CB, but their OL was a mess last year and Flacco was hurt as a result PHI - They need CB, but Elliott makes a lot of sense for them, and they moved up for a reason TB - CB is a need, but they signed Robinson and Grimes. WR makes sense since VJax is older, due big $, and injury prone. The draft could conceivably play out like this: 1.TEN-Tunsil 2.CLE-Wentz 3.SD-Bosa 4…

The Rams going into full tank mode. Ramsey traded for a 3rd rounder to Miami, wow.

Is this guy as good as the article is claiming? I did not have a chance to watch any of the regular season college football and know zip squat about the players entering the draft other than what I read. They make this guy sound like a can't miss prospect.
