A reunion: The #Saints are close to a deal with safety Malcolm Jenkins — likely bringing back one of their former first-round draft choices and securing their back end. The #Eagles recently parted ways with Jenkins.

QB trade: Jacksonville is trading QB Nick Foles to Chicago for the Bears’ compensatory fourth-round pick, sources tell ESPN.
Bears’ coaches such as Matt Nagy have worked with Foles in past and know him well.

#Chargers have agreed with former #Vikings DT Linval Joseph on a two-year, $17 million deal with another $2 million in incentives, sources say.
Jax trade C Campbell and now Foles...ammunition for a run at a QB
out of cap space, do they. They've got major $ allocated to QB (Dak), RB (Zeke), WR (Cooper), TE (Barwin isn't exactly cheap anymore), OL (essentially every guy makes big $), DL (Lawrence), LB (Smith).
he's 28 w/ 3 years 27m remaining, so basically the mcgovern deal but a better player although he's had some injury issues.
That would be awesome, perhaps part of a trade up. Jax receives 4th overall pick Giants receive 9th, 20th, and Linder.
I think you have call the jags about yannick and #9 for #4.
But i do like the idea of trading back with them. 9 is perfect for the OT group plus we can pick up some valuable picks or in this or yannick case a valuable player too
Hours after his release from the #Falcons became official, veteran CB Desmond Trufant agreed to a two-year, $21 million deal with the #Lions, source said. (@Schultz_Report 1st)
Does this mean Okudah may Possibly not be the man at 3?
If they deal Slay, I think it almost guarantees Okudah. That is if they aren’t blown away with a package to trade down, which is a definite possibility.
"Darius Slay got his wish, and the Philadelphia Eagles got their cornerback.
"NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported the Detroit Lions are sending the Pro Bowl corner to Philadelphia in exchange for a third- and fifth-round picks in 2020.
"Slay has wanted a new contract, and will get a three-year, $50 million contract extension with $30 million guaranteed, Rapoport added, per agent Drew Rosenhaus."

I'm ok w that. He's 29 and the Eagles give up picks..........

Yet still have 8 including picks in each of the first 3 rounds. Oh and 3 4th round picks.
Stefen Wisniewski signed a 2 year deal with the Steelers. I was hoping that he would be signed to be the backup center or stopgap if they draft a center early.
The remaining center options that are upgrades over Pulley are Brett Jones, Daniel Kilgore, Mike Person, Hroniss Grasu, and AQ Shipley. Evan Brown is worth bringing back IMO.
I really don’t want to go into next season with Pulley as the backup center. Pulley may he smart and good at making the proper line calls but he is just not an NFL caliber player. He’s too easily pushed back into the pocket and he struggles mightily at getting any push. I was excited when Pulley replaced Halapio last season because I hoped that he had gotten stronger over the previous year but he immediately made me wish for Halapio to return to the starting lineup.
I am not even a big fan of Halapio but he is a better player than Pulley which isn’t saying much.
With the lack of options left in free agency I think the starting center is coming in the draft. Let’s hope that they upgrade the backup spot as well. Eric on LI made a great suggestion in trying to trade for Linder from Jax. Ideally he would be part of a trade down package with the Jaguars. The 4th pick for Jacksonville’s 9th, 20th, a 2021 3rd, and Linder sounds fair to me. The Giants would still land an OT in round 1 with one of those picks while also filling a big hole in the middle. Hernandez, Linder, and Zeitler inside is an impressive group.
Well, at least one New York football team is trying to address their putrid O-line through Free Agency.
NEW YORK (AP) — "Joe Douglas entered free agency focused on improving the New York Jets' shaky offensive line.
The makeover with the big boys up front is on. In a big way."
“ Titans get a 7th round pick...this is a cap-space move.
Something big must be coming to Tennessee in a corresponding move.”

They were linked to Clowney early on in the FA process. I wonder if that's what his move is leading to.

They would have an outstanding group of WR’s if this happens.

God doesn't have to worry about a salary cap.
