Seen where Rapport corrected his post. Detroit got Juice Scruggs/ OL, a 4th and 7th. Quite the haul. Makes me wonder what Swift would bring back.

Three players for Monty kills me.  If we were predicting jump cuts per game, it would be a better number.  And what the hell are the Texans doing?  It seems like they're intentionally trying to kill Stroud.

Scruggs was pretty bad last year. Either way, just in typing that, Monty had 2 more jump cuts.

The first order of business right now is finding a FA Center to replace Dalman.  Nothing is as important as protecting Caleb right up the middle as well as keeping the running game going.  IMO the Bears will close on that deal first then sort out the remaining options.

I think their first choice came yesterday. Contract wise he fits. He was rated 11th for Centers, so not a great as Dalhman, but close.  Have to see if he has the smarts to run BJ complex offense.

For obvious reasons I never looked into Centers in this years draft but there is some very good depth there.  If Linderbaum is going to get $20mil/yr we need to walk away from that.  Biadasz has some injuries last year that impacted his play and they walked away from him at a relatively high price in dead money with little cap gain.  Would we be better off snagging one of the mid-tier FAs and saving $5-10mil in cap space that we could use toward so many of our other needs, and then just drafting our future Center?  

"Washington saved just $2.9 million in salary cap space via the cut, while incurring an $8.1 million dead money hit in 2026"
