CLE - trade Cb Troy Hill to Rams for a 2023 5th round pick
SEA - per reports Geno Smith is leading the Qb competition so far.... - God Help those SEA Wrs and Tes.... Yikes
SF and CLE - seem to be stuck with Garoppolo and Mayfield respectively - the only team really needing a Qb now is Seattle(per above).
SF - stated no trade talks for Deebo ever really got serious - Jets made an offer but it was ridiculously low per sources
CAR - evidently Panthers were talking trade with Browns for Mayfield, however they could not agree to a level of splitting Mayfield's salary, so the deal fell through and Panthers drafted Matt Corral in the 5th round (a steal there...).

I wonder if this was driving Kyler Murray? When Hopkins is out the team dives on offense

Did the review find that Jackson was quite capable of losing games with no additional incentive?

That would be my guess

I'm not comparing Hollywood Brown to him but wonder if that had anything to do with the trade. Ertz could have a huge start to his season.

Doubt it would ever happen, but if Jimmy went to Seattle, it would be funny to see their fanbase go from "Jimmy sucks" to "Jimmy is the greatest ever" narrative. Most delusional fanbase in the NFL.

That may be the Cowboys.
