NFL Trade Deadline “Ideas”

michel's knee is not serious, so we can pump the breaks on spending more cap dollars on a RB for now.

Slightly out of date, even though it was posted around Noon today. While the piece says "it's unlikely that the Raiders get a 1st for Cooper", they did mention the 'Boys (and only the 'Boys) as a "likely suitor".

NFL trade market: 30 candidates to be moved before deadline, from Le'Veon Bell to Amari Cooper

Need someone who can cover a TE. Chung can’t do it anymore.

So, you think the Bears would trade Howard to the Pats?

Most likely not, but you never know.

Chung did fine against Kelce. And I wouldn't blame him alone for Trey Burton's success. As far as I could tell, Burton wasn't getting jammed at the LoS the way Kelce had been, and then on most of Burton's receptions he was wide open in zone coverage over the middle, which wasn't necessarily Chung's responsibility every time (e.g., I never saw an LB dropping back there).

Gotta appreciate the memory of people. Just a week earlier Kelce was held to zero catches in the second half and then due to schematic reasons we let the Bears have the underneath and immediately the mob looks for some heads.

If healthy wouldn't mind signing Bo Scarbrough of the Jags practice squad.

It's funny because they actually DID get a 1st from the Cowboys.. But only because the Eagles were offering a 2nd..

We ran a scheme that other than a Hail Mary had trubisky 7/21 for 75 yards and 2 ints targeting WRs.
I’m ok with a te making some catches of we are doing that to WRs.

Last year of his deal.

His cap number is marvelous.

They’re losing.

Even before his health was in question we had a need at the position.

Nice idea for the future. However, for the purpose of immediately bolstering the RB position for the next three games or so, it would make a lot more sense to acquire an RB with NFL experience, especially one with ST experience. Signing someone like Darkwa or simply promoting Farrow would be more useful.
