Don't get me wrong great guards are a nice luxury to have but they're usually way lower down on the priority list for most teams.

Isn’t it really rare to see a straight up trade in this league? The only one I can remember is Champ Bailey and Clinton Portis.

Let’s not forget that “guards don’t matter” is a core belief of one Adam Gase, offensive mastermind behind the 2019 Jets and 2018 Dolphins.

Guards are probably really important when you have a statue quarterback that's gonna stand in the pocket. Rivers is gonna have a good year nex-

Cover the whole football field with pretty much your best guys. about 360 degrees around the football, set good to great players and see what happens.

So do the Chargers sign one of the vet free agent QBs and draft one of the top tackles, or do they draft a QB and put him out there with no real LT (admittedly I have no idea what their depth looks like)? As a Colts fan I'm heavily invested in the possible QB draft domino effect of this move.

I was going to say the infamous Peyton for Brady trade Peyton Hillis for Brady Quinn, but it apparently involved some mid-late round picks. Still the funniest for a good minute.

Can't believe we've come this far without mentioning the greatest WR trade in history: Jonathan Baldwin for AJ Jenkins. I remember being able to count Jenkins career catches from memory in game day threads, not that it was hard to keep up.

https://twitter.com/SethWalder/status/1235586641768648706 This seems utterly impossible to enforce and not worth fighting about when there is so much worth fighting about for the players? I mean you can not cite it during negotiations I guess, but the data will be out there anyway and be on everyone's mind.

Yeah NBC hired Tirico with the plan of him taking over when Michaels retired or left. Slowpoke! posted:Isn’t it really rare to see a straight up trade in this league? The only one I can remember is Champ Bailey and Clinton Portis. It's fairly rare, but usually when it does happen it's for bottom of the roster guys (special teamers, guys destined for the practice squad, etc).
