Jets and Cowboys

Buffalo needs an OT pretty bad. Demetrius Bell just signed with Philly. They are sitting there praying that Rieff falls to them.

NY Jets could do nothing better than to move in front of a division rival and fill their own need for an OT.

Dallas, on the other hand needs Poe. Ratliff is not getting the job done as a NT and JJ wants the big guy. Jones is generally a guy that moves down a la Belecik, but the JJ magic has not been working so it is time for him to make a move.W

KC needs a NT also, but Buffalo will not trade with Dallas for fear of losing out on Rieff, so JJ comes up to the Panthers.

These are the two best at them moment as far as needs and what FA has filled.

Thought about Philly, but they have already traded away one pick getting D Ryan from Houston. Reid usually likes collecting picks, so I doubt he trades away more especially in the first round.

They need an OLB pretty bad to go along with Ryan and I could see them picking up someone like Kendall Wright since DeSean Jackson is on a one year leash at the moment.

CB is a problem for them now also, they want to trade Asante (old and expensive) and keep Cromartie who is not that great and might get cut after this season. They do have issues, more than just trading up for one DT.

they re-signed Jackson to a five year deal worth about 33 mil

Saying the same thing, that Buffalo is set to take OT and many people from 10-20 need one.

Hoping we get great offer from Philly or Jets for OT. Philly signed Bell but it really is just a one year contract.

From the GBN buzz report

On the other hand, if there is a run of trades in this year’s opening round, it is very possible that it could start pretty much right after the Dolphins pick at #8. Buffalo, in particular, which has the 10th pick, looks like a team that would happily move down. The Bills are reportedly looking for a LT, but likely won’t find any worth the 10th pick, but guys like Riley Reiff of Iowa and/or Jonathan Martin of Stanford would represent better value 5-10 spots lower in the draft. In fact, a pretty good case that just about every team picking 10th through 20th could move either up or down depending on the players available on the board at those respective selections.

      Passing yards per game leaders

      I mean it's not even like this was his worst game of the season... I'm not done with him by any means but this feels more the norm for him than the exception:/

      BREAKING: Panthers Announce Four Moves Including LB Trevin Wallace To IR

      By mav1234 · Posted

      I'd give it a C mainly because of Brooks.  If we just didn't have a 2nd I'd argue B to B+ tbh. Brooks was a bad gamble, tho one that could still pay off long term. Yes XL only has 400 yards but... Look who is throwing him the ball. And I think he isn't a "true #1" but he's been able to consistently get open. Hands definitely need to be cleaned up.  But he should end the year with 500-600 yards. Like you said - Sanders looks great.  Get him a better QB / more time with a QB and I think he's gonna impress. We added a couple rotational players on D that have both made plays and show promise for the future from later rounds. So I'd say, Brooks really hurts this drafts grade. It'll be interesting to see how it progresses over the next 3 years. I've overall really liked Morgan's FA acquisitions, so...

      Would you trade Ickey

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      Oh he would absolutely flourish. It’s the panthers way. It’s no different with coaches. Sometimes they reach their expiration date, go somewhere else, and find new success.  Similarly to Burns, how long to wait for the light to finally turn on?  Market forces will demand a salary that the panthers can not responsibly match. Sliding him to guard will fit his skill set better, but he has played LT for 3 years. He will receive offers from other teams wanting to pay him LT money.  At guard, he won’t start with what they have paid Hunt and Lewis. Center then?? Dunno. Maybe? He will become a backup by default once they draft their stud LT. I doubt Dan just stands pat. That’s not his MO.  So where does this put him? Can you match what other teams will offer for a backup LT/guard? Do you dish out franchise LT $ on a guy who still needs significant improvement in pass protection. This team will be DOA in the playoffs with the very first team who has a formidable speed rusher. What if he has hit his ceiling in pass protection already and they sign him long term? It’s a big gamble either way.
