Thoughts on NFL player movement post draft


The Buffalo Bills had a confusing, but kind of interesting draft. CJ Spiller, in my opinion was the best guy on the board at 9, he can become the identity of their offense, and he’s the perfect complement to Marshawn Lynch. But it only works if they can move Lynch or Fred Jackson, and oddly enough, they’ve said they aren’t moving either.
So here’s a way they could make sense of their first round pick that would make sense for both teams: send Fred Jackson to the Rams for OT Alex Barron. The Rams drafted a new right tackle and have soured on Barron after a penalty plagued season, and need a change of pace back so that SJax doesn’t wear down. Barron is better than any of the tackles on the Bills roster.
Also, the Jags released John Henderson, because they aren’t smart nor do they want to be good. (i.e. Tyson Alalalala). The perfect destination for him: Tennessee. He’s a former Volunteer, and could replace the void left by former collegiate teammate Al Haynesworth. It seems like a great fit.

This chick's voice?

Can someone tell me why this super nasal-y lady is throwing to commercial?

7 chalk, 7 ridiculous

Yep.

WHAT?!?

Kidding about Earl Thomas, I mean I was totally joking....yikes. This has been a ridiculous sequence of picks.

CALLED IT

Called Earl Thomas Eags trade up. So did everyone else.

Chargers?

Who would they trade up for? Ryan Matthews maybe? I feel like they could wait to get him. Bulaga and Claussen are slipping, but I can't see them taking either.

Holy God Really?

i knew the raiders were gonna do something insane. Taking a linebacker when your 2 best defenders are linebackers is pretty on par. I kind of get Spiller, bc they hate Marshawn and can move him for a tackle or something. But Tyson Polamalumaleuna? Awesome. They could've gotten him in round 2. Excellent.
