I don't understand why there's no talk about Jerry Hughes in Buffalo.

He's too old for their rebuild but very effective this year - 4.5 sacks so far.

Makes a little over 6 million per year this year and next.

I would go after Hughes too. He would be cheaper and is still fast. Anyone they get needs to be fast or they won’t beat the interior to the QB.


If Talib is expected to be out much longer I’d be shopping for another corner. They need more depth.

Not sure if it’s been mentioned, but trading Reynolds might help bring somebody in. I’d hate to see him go, but grabbing two TDS might raise some eyebrows for teams needing WR help

Maybe Brown could be dealt. Can Noteboom/Allen be viable back ups if injuries hit? Brown could save you a draft pick by trading him as the Jags and Giants both need OL help.

Brown also clears $1M in cap as his $2M cap number gets cut in half for the last 8 games

Hahahaha they are dreaming that is a lot for somebody with potential legal troubles and who they dont play. They will be lucky to get a fourth

From their perspective, if they don’t trade him, and he signs elsewhere - they probably get a 3rd rd comp for him anyway - right?

Doesn't he have to be a top line player for a 3rd round comp pick to be awarded. I don't see him getting a big contract. Might even be a prove it one year deal.

If Wade sees something in him he could be worth a late 3rd rounder. Rather be a 4th.

Rather have that Bills guy.

It depends on what he signs for. If he ends this year with 10 sacks and a ring, he will probably get paid.

The rams run 3 wide more than anybody and there have been injuries some minor some involving multiple games. Cooks and Kupp have both missed time and if Reynolds isn’t there who’s next? Hodge? I think they need more depth at WR as it is.

Fowler is signed for 3.6 I think? With the year being half over I assume he'd be 1.8 . Don't quote me on that

I quoted you on that.

Players get paid over 17 weeks - there is a paycheck for the bye week. So he gets 9 more paychecks, which means his cap hit is actually a bit over $1.9 million.
