Yes, they think he can be a #1A with Tate, but he couldn't do it even with AJ Green on the other side.

Russell Okung's still decent but best days are behind him. Let Detroit sign him to a mega contract. He won't earn it, plus SEA loses their starting LT.

He's only 28. No reason he can't give good value over the likely term of a contract.

Martavious was rumored to be in line for a year long ban. He just announced he was going to rehab. Wonder if he plea bargained?

Bryant agreed to the year-long suspension and entered a drug rehab program in hopes of having his suspension reduced (a la Aldon Smith a few years back...)

Winners and losers of the Chandler Jones trade and a busy 2 days of NFL free agency

By Jon Benne  @LordBenne on Mar 16, 2016

The Patriots and Cardinals pulled off a stunning trade on Tuesday, and somehow both teams won. Eric Weddle, meanwhile, has a new home after a busy two days of NFL free agency. . . . . and more goings on... Winners and Losers.

Andre Smith to the Vikings for a seemingly pretty good price, $3.5 million. This is a guy I would have liked the Packers to talk to, he missed a bit of time last year, but has been mostly healthy.
