Yeah i like that deal.
Cravens is a good player, glad to see him out of the division

Rumors circulating that the Rams are going to trade for OBJ... call me crazy but this might be flying too close to the sun! Huge "Dream Team" potential here
Obviously if it all goes right, that's a team that should win the SB. But man that's a lot of locker room volatility, that's a 14-2 or a 7-9 team haha

I hope they trade for OBJ, that dude is a cancer

OBJ isn't playing unless he's paid more than a 5th year option. If the Rams want to LTD him while giving up a ton of draft capital then all power to them.

I don't think the Rams are going to do this. Would be foolish imo.

f**k yes! Bargain trade for an awesome player, if he can get his shit together. Basically cost the Broncos a pick that they don't have the room in their squad for anyway and pick up a potential pro-bowl talent with 3 years left on his rookie contract (last year wasn't tolled).

Looks like they finally found a TJ Ward replacement.

That is a fantastic deal for the Broncs, Cravens is a weapon if he keeps his head straight.

Dez would be interesting
He’s still a damn good jump ball receiver.. and I’m not convinced his failures aren’t totally on Dak being totally unwilling to make a tough contested throw

I could see him having a strong year in the right team

Doubt he's on the radar but the 9ers could do with a true redzone threat.

0.1% chance of happening but it wouldn't be the worst fit.

The Rams are going all in this year, it wouldn't surprise me if they throw a shitload at OBJ. There would be a lot of motivation to win a SB in the next couple of years from a franchise longevity and stability standpoint in LA.

OBJ is ridiculously overrated and they'd regret signing him to anything more than a 2 year deal IMO but one can't deny his crowd pulling power.

Yup, definitely going all in, but going all in for a couple of years, stepping back and reloading for another run is one option. The other is going all in and then having to blow it up afterwards. They have some big decisions to make in the next couple of years and a LTD for OBJ is not what you want complicating the process.

Marquette King to the Eagles rumours circling around don't know how much truth there is but we don't have a punter on the books and he'd fit right in with the group.

For the best TE in history, he’s worth more than a 4th, you don’t give away a top 10 player in the league for a 4th.

He's old, always injured and has a huge salary. Plus he always talks about retirement. Teams aren't gonna give up much for him.

This has been one of the craziest offseason in the NFL I have ever seen in my 23 years of following it.

And I don’t think it’s over yet
Expecting a lot of moves during the draft and Gronk/OBJ rumours still out there
