NFL News, Rumors, In/Out - NFL Draft week

[Phicinfan]

Time for some fun, watch the rumors fly this week...

WAS - Schefter and a few others are floating around that Jayden Daniels doesn't want to go to Washington, that he would much rather go to Raiders(who have NO shot of getting to #2). Have heard rumbles that if Raiders can get to #3, Daniels will make sure he isn't taken by Commanders. - I don't believe this for nothing but....
MIN - Vikings are still one of the leading teams expected to make a move up from where they are to get a QB.
NE - per reports I expect them to keep #3, and take QB. However, I keep reading that they would take a blockbuster deal if it came - so keep an eye on Vikings or Giants or some other QB hungry team.
SF - rumors flying that there could be a deal to ship out Aiyuk, if they can get value. Aiyuk has made it clear he wants to say in San Fran, but wants paid as well.

Rice will be suspended and while I thought initially he might get a full season, I now think 8 games is max and probably cut it to 4-6. Of course he could get the Kamara treatment and get 2-3 as well.

Toney is a very talented player if he could ever get the mental part of the game down, which I have my doubts about. But yeah, they completely lost faith in him last year so that's a hilarious spin

WAS - released DL Shaka Toney - just reinstated from gambling suspension

Also, the Jets and Broncos are splitting the $5.5 million that is due Wilson this season: Jets are paying $2.75 million and the Broncos are paying $2.75 million.

Draft rumor - there are rumors out there that Vikings may be offering up Justin Jefferson to get up to #2 to get Jayden Daniels. Would be a huge mistake IMO. But I have heard it from more than one site.

Ouch for Atlanta. That's pretty devastating.
.
If this scenario ends up happening, will be interesting to see why one is so much more severe than the other. Seems tampering is tampering. "Well, Philly only tampered a little while Atlanta really tampered a lot. "

Typical NFL though. Very arbitrary and random punishments.

So won't impact this draft at least. Atlanta breathes a sigh of relief

Giants TE Darren Waller and Kelsey Plum divorcing after 13 months. Per TMZ Sports


Didn't people make a big fuss about him getting traded to NY on his wedding day or something?

Guess it didn't matter after all

SEA - new HC McDonald has cleared out all the old photo's from superbowl team and all the old statements posted from old HC - wants new culture.....

Only 1 hallway from the team meeting room to the training facilities is being remodeled. Fresh paint, digital displays to rotate through all team historic moments, and other stuff. The rest of the campus still has other pictures and memorabilia of the Superbowl years and stuff. Good Heavens why are so many people making an issue out of this? (LOOKING AT YOU RICHARD SHERMAN!)

Every new coach changes stuff up. Good lord, where was the crying and screaming when Pete Carroll did it to Mike Holmgren's legacy?

Retire already Waller, so she doesn’t take much from you
