[quote=JoeRedskin;1108476]Couple of years ago Harvin looked like a star in the making. Now traded twice and cut.

Somene will pick him up for a cheap contract, but just don't see him making an impact anywhere. Not even sure if he is a solid slot receiver at This point.

Mark Ingram inked to 4 years with Saints, does this mean they won't pursue Forsett as hard??

Re: All things off season 2015.
 

It'd be cool to drop Helu and pick up Forsett, have him split off with Alfmo but Forsett is probably looking for a team that will start him.

^Either that or his first fat paycheck. He won't find either of those here.

Iat we get another RB that's on the market, the only one I'd like to see would be Spiller. He'd be a great counter to Almo and give us a threat in the return game.

Re: All things off season 2015.
 

Id be all for Spiller but his durability is awful. The last two years he has barely played a game that he was healthy and he missed a at least 1/3 of each season the last two years

[quote]McCoy trade fallout: One team executive I spoke with recently said he would have felt better about the McCoy trade from an Eagles standpoint if Philadelphia had gotten draft-choice compensation in return -- especially if Philadelphia plans on trading up for a shot at Marcus Mariota. [B][I]I've heard others play to the dramatic nature of the trade by saying Kelly had better be right on this one, but who are they kidding? If Kelly fails in Philadelphia, college programs will still be lining up for a shot at making him one of the highest-paid coaches in the land. Kelly would probably have other NFL opportunities as well. He is in a no-lose situation.[/I][/B][/quote]

Interesting take on Kelly and why he may feel he is free to do as he pleases in disposing of talent in Philly. "Go ahead, fire me. I don't care. I'll have a job tomorrow."

Re: All things off season 2015.
 

Kelly is definitely entertaining to watch in the off season.....
And the state of coaching in the NFL....he probably could

Patrick Willis retiring

Re: All things off season 2015.
 

SF and PHI look like the teams really going for a make over in the offseason.

Loss of Willis is huge for SF. Even if injured and missing a most of last year, he really was the heart of that defense. With him gone, Smith likely gone, and Bowman recovering from ACL, that D is going to be seriously less effective this year. Not looking good for Tomsula. I would not be surprised if they fall into the 4-6 win category.

Re: All things off season 2015.
 

Looks like we may lose Helu. Not a huge loss though, at least not in regards to his blocking. Yikes.

Re: All things off season 2015.
 

So according to multiple Twitter sources (Schefter, etc.), Gore is backing out of Philly and leaning towards the Colts. Makes a lot of sense, Colts are the more stable team.

Re: All things off season 2015.
 

Probably in the minority but I think Seattle brining him Graham is a bad move. You give up a starter on your o-line, plus draft picks, for a highly paid TE who doesn't block. Graham is just a pass catcher and that's it. Not sure how that fits in with their run first offense.

Yeah I don't get it either. I know Seattle needs pass catchers, but they could've easily gotten one in free agency and/or the draft.

Graham was injured a lot this past season too; and the Saints, who are a pass first team, where fine getting rid of him.

Saints Nation is quite upset but I agree with you. If NO uses that first round pick on a stud TE like Maxx Williams, they got better.

they got a C and a 1st round pick out of a guy that wasn't going to agree to a new deal anyways. fans may be upset, but unless you wanted to overpay badly, it's probably the right move by the FO.

@AdamSchefter

Chiefs traded this year's 5th-round pick to Saints for two-time Pro Bowl guard Ben Grubbs, per league source.

Re: All things off season 2015.
 

Saints are in rebuild mode. Trade Brees next? Lmao

Re: All things off season 2015.
 

again, grubbs was due to count $9.6M against the cap, as a guard. if they can find a younger QB they like, they might look at moving brees too. if you're going to rebuild, you might as well guarantee yourself a top 5 pick. that's hard to do with a QB as good as brees on the roster. (half kidding)

remember they got brees for free (as a FA - it should have been us!), so if they can get a 1st round pick for him, that's a nice bonus if they feel like he's only got a couple years left.

I think Brees and a couple more are safe in terms of not being talked about. This article sums up why they ditched Jimmy G.
