The Buffalo Bills have agreed to trade LB Kiko Alonso in exchange for RB Lesean McCoy.

Wow. I did not see that one coming. This trade could end up working great for the Bills if they get the Lesean McCoy of two years ago.

The trade could turn out well for the Eagles if they think McCoy is done(which I don't think to be true) but they got a pretty good LB out of Alonso.

Trades don't usually happen in the NFL, especially like this one so this is coming as a shock. It'll certainly be interesting to see which side this trade ends up favoring.

good cap move, traded a player at the end of his career for a player at the beginning of one. took balls and a swallowing of emotional attachment to pull off.

 

in other words, a solid football move by a good front office.

      Salary cap taking a big jump in 2025

      I don't know--they represent the entire body of players and this be determined, if it got to that point, by a vote of all veterans and rookies who are part of the union.  If the elite players are getting 50% of all cap increases, the non-elite players with shorter careers might want a bigger slice of the pie and vote accordingly.  To say that the Union would not go for it is not something I agree with--it would be the union that proposes it--based on a proposal and a majority vote.  If the veteran players vote for an equal distribution framework, then all 53 on a roster benefit from a cap increase that is applicable to the entire team.  Not sure how labor laws might be impacted...

      Who Has to Be Off the Board to Trade Back?

      Carter, Graham, or Walker and I might roll the dice hoping Walker is around later.  If Hunter is there at 8, we are about to get a really nice haul for trading back.

      Oh well. That's his fault if he wants to eat up all the cap space and have no protection as a result. A big part of why Brady has all those rings is that he generally took team friendly deals. Not that he wasn't making a mega ass ton of money, but he wasn't leaving his team cap strapped due to his contract while Peyton Manning generally tried to negotiate for every dime he could get forcing the Colts to make tough decisions.
