Butler is a comp pick round higher and as long as we don't have more signed than lost, we should get it back.  Irvin going to Seattle should offset Burris' signing returning Vernon's pick to us.

Not yet. Signing Seth Roberts our Vernon’s pick back on the shelf. Irvin and Roberts basically cancel out. We need Van Roten to sign to get back Vernon’s and maybe a Cockrell or Williams signing to get McCoy’s but who knows those type of guys sigh after the draft when they don’t count. I’m hoping we get 2 of the 4 we would have gotten and I certainly don’t want to tie up almost Norwell level money for the guy who didn’t replace him well. Funny that so many people think Van Roten for $10M is a solid move yet Marty could have tried to just keep Norwell. I wonder how many hits Cam could have avoided and how much better Paradis and Daley would have been with an all pro LG in the lineup.

The Rams have signaled they're willing to trade both Todd Gurley and Brandin Cooks.

Cooks to me is one of those guys that people think could help someone win a Super Bowl, but he never does.

(I put Jimmy Graham in that same category)

Todd Gurley is an interesting comparison to Cam.  Teams will certainly be leery of possible lasting injury concerns and no one will take on that salary knowing that.

I could see Gurley released as well.

Cooks is a solid player but not a big difference maker.

Gurley just got released.

Dang

Man, damn. How dumb do the Texans have to feel now. Everyone was already joking them about that Hopkins for David Johnson trade. Turns out they could've had Todd Gurley for free just a couple of days later. LOL!

    • I honestly can’t believe this team’s turnaround this season. It’s surreal. Figured healthy we’d be fringe playoffs and with another lottery pick could finally turn the corner, but we don’t even need that. This group is ready. We haven’t played remotely well the last 5 games and yet still blew out 5 bad teams by 16+ each game like it was casual practice. We had a few solid teams with Kemba and Big Al but this is easily our best group since the original Hornets moved to NO. Man, what a shift in culture this new ownership group and front office has brought. So damn happy to see it after years of suffering and consistently meaningless games in this stretch of previous seasons.   Only 2.5 games out of the 6 seed, although Miami, Atlanta and Orlando have been playing well too. Gonna be a fun final stretch, hopefully we can get a top 8 seed at the very least. Celtics tomorrow will be a good test. Would be huge to keep the road winning streak up against a very hot top team on the 2nd half of a back to back. We’ve played Boston pretty well the last few years with much of this same group despite sucking so I do feel pretty good about it. Kon is due for a huge game coming off a few cold shooting games (although despite the poor shooting he’s been contributing well with defense, assists and rebounds).
    • It amazes me how underrated Horn has become after he finally was able to stay on the field. Sure last year wasn’t perfect but he was still a huge reason for our rebound defensively and I’d say he’s easily a top 10 corner. You don’t want to see Mike Jackson as our top corner. Any player is available for the right price but I’d be extremely hesitant to move Horn even for a big haul from LA.
