Starts 3/15. For some reason that eludes me, Stephen is still on the roster.

Still comes down to the #Eagles agreeing on trade compensation but this step means Zach Ertz's agent can massage the entire deal. Ertz wants it done. Team wants proper comp. Let's see where it goes.

The #Eagles have given long-time TE Zach Ertz, one of the faces of their franchise, permission to seek a trade, source said. Several teams have been engaged.

I always liked Alexander and thought he was turning into a good slot corner. He didn’t leave on the best of terms, but he had a humbling year to say the least.

Vikings have touched base with William Jackson's reps, no offer yet though.

I just read a review of his play last year saying he was very effective. Yes, he was arrested prior to the season when his father was missing... Bengals 2020 player review: Mackensie Alexander (msn.com)

I would welcome his return. We should work to keep players that developed and learned this system.

Keanu KNEEl.  The safety that fucked up that easy pick in the 17’ divisional game in Philly?!  

That was a pivotal play as the Eagles capitalized 3 points off that before the half vs Atlanta keeping or extending that lead

We would have destroyed ATL in Minneapolis after the miracle.  but if he can help deliver a SB, all is forgiven

Double blah. I hope the Vikings get their corner. Because all this interest in expensive corners means two things. Mike Hughes is probably not coming back and cornerback is very much in play at 14.

Agreed. I get that adding another corner is a need, but I do not want to burn another 1st rounder on a corner. Other areas of the roster need attention.

I think it means the Vikings are looking to add a veteran on the outside to pair with Dantzler since Gladney (and Hughes if he's healthy) will play the slot.  With all the youth we have at CB, it makes sense to get a young vet who can play right away rather than drafting another guy we need to develop.

I still feel like these moves and FA interest mean we're focusing on OT and DE with our first rounder.

I agree about our 1st rounder, except I'd change OT to OL. Dru Samia and Kyle Hinton are the only guards on the roster. Also, sounds like we're interested in Mac Alexander, too, who's more of a slot. Either way, Iike I said, I hope we land one. There are going to be some tempting corners at 14.

While you (and I) were sleeping: The #49ers agreed to terms with LT Trent Williams on a six-year, $138.06 million deal with $55.1 million guaranteed, including a $30.1 million signing bonus, per @elsportsllc @loyalty24_7. The NFL’s new highest-paid offensive lineman.

No. We knew you weren't. It's still @#$&! frustrating to continue to spend premium draft capital on one position with a CB guru. 

I wonder if I can retroactively get insurance coverage of my TV.

This signals the Vikings aren’t done. They still want to sign someone in the secondary and an offensive lineman. They have plenty of cap space if they move Adam Thielen’s money around. And can create more by extending Harrison Smith. twitter.com/dduggan21/stat…

We'll see which O-lineman they end up with but was told bringing back Reiff is still a viable option. He is simply exploring what his other opportunities are.

One possibility that I didn't think would happen: #Bears could wind up parting ways with veteran CB Kyle Fuller today. His cap hit is $20 million and absent a contract extension to lower that figure, it could happen. That's the buzz around the league right now.

If traded, Kyle Fuller will still have a $9 million dead cap hit in Chicago for 2021

Given the trade market, and the fact Fuller has a $13M salary for 2021 and needs an extension, doubt Chicago can get much in a trade package - maybe a 4th

Brutal situation all around

We have 13 4th rounders.
