... there's one available.

The Cardinals are apparently trying to trade LB-S Deone Bucannon. At around 215 lbs, I'd say he's better at safety. Not dead certain about the skill set, though. Buccanon is apparently a bad fit for Steve Wilks' defense.

Word also that the Raiders might be looking to part ways with non-hybrid corner Gareon Conley. Gruden apparently is prepared to bench him in favor of Darryl Worley and may move on from him entirely.

Both are former first round picks.

Gruden will pay for that mistake by putting Worley out on the field.

Get Conley and Karl Joseph before Gruden realizes it’s not 2001. Buy low on that talent.

Unfortunately the Cardinals optioned for Bucannon's 5th year option, which he's now in. So if anyone decides to trade for him they only pick him up for one year unless they want to sign him long-term. Unlike baseball, you can't just get traded and be able to play the next game. That only works if you're a monster in football (think Khalil Mack). That's a no for me.

    • Just another 1st round QB that never paid off for the team that drafted them or traded for them. It's been like this since the SB began. 36 QBs have now won the SB & only 13 of them have been 1st rounders winning with their original team. Namath 1968, Griese 1972, Bradshaw 1974, McMahon 1985, Simms 1986, Aikman 1992, Elway 1997, Roethlisberger 2005, P.Manning 2006, E.Manning 2007, Rodgers 2010, Flacco 2012, & Mahomes 2019. Only 3 have taken longer than 5 seasons as the starter to win a SB.  4  6  5  4  6  4  15  2  9  4  3  5  2 [the years it takes for these 1st round QBs] 5  1  4  1  3  1  1  2  3  4  [10 of the 36 have won a chip with their 1st team that haven't been drafted in the 1st round. These are the years it took them as a starter] What stands out? Only 2 of these QBs have lost their first championship appearance. Elway took 4 years as a 1st rounder & Hurts took 2 years as a 2nd rounder. Of the 10 non-1st round QBs, 2 are 2nd rounders, 3 are 3rd rounders, 5 are 6th rounders or later. Please stop wasting time on drafting 1st round QBs with such a high failure rate. The remaining 13 QBs are traded or free agent signings. Stafford, Favre, Young, Williams and Dawson are the 5 trades. Peyton Manning & Tom Brady also won for teams as free agents on a short stay as well as being drafted. The lesson here is don't waste your franchise on farming up 1st rounders for the league, and steer clear of trading for a franchise QB. Stick to finding that championship QB by drafting them outside of the 1st round or through free agency.  
    • I lost most of the respect I had for Fox in 2010. He should have resigned if he hated the job that much. Instead he stuck for his paycheck and let stuff go to hell.    I burned out on Ron too but my deal breaker issue with him was away from football and after he was gone from the Panthers. He may have been out of his depth but never quit on us. 
    • From where they were one year ago to now, pretty incredible. I mean, say what you want about Vrabel he is no Jerrod Mayo.
