Insight into trade rumors

[Mr. Scot]

Via our old friend Brandon Beane (retweeted by Mike Kaye)...

Basically, if someone looks in the general direction of a certain player, they're trying to trade for him.

Brandon is giving us a look behind the curtain. In my head it was something like a movie with GM’s getting on the phone with other GM’s.

Yeah, that's a way more thorough description of the actual process than I've seen from anyone before.

Good post! I'm glad Beane said this.  The business evaluates everyone but not necessarily making an offer.  Just be cool until an offer is made.

But what if there's homemade meatballs involved? What then?

You offer a massive contract and full control

I like that dude.  Really missed out on a legit GM. And McD.  And Allen.  And life in general.  Love.

Funny, but I am good friends with his high school English teacher and got to know Brandon because they stayed friends over the years.  I used to get some info from him (usually indirectly from a mutual friend) on occasion, nothing earth shattering, but I would share it on the Huddle and there were times when I was attacked and kinda insulted by Huddlers.  I used to laugh about it--but since I would never reveal the source, it became a running joke--I would read the comments to my friend and he would belly laugh at some of you (I will not share names at this time). 

BB is a great guy, and in my opinion, he made Marty seem smarter than he was.

Yea remember that time we interviewed him and hired Gettleman  instead?  Good times

Bills really dropped the ball not acquiring CMC. They have a great shot at a SB. Scrub Nyheim Hines ain’t gonna cut it.

Take a deep breath and don't worry until sausage is involved.

Brandon has done a great job, and he's young.  Interested that they weren't interested in Kamara.

In related news (since we don't have a NFL news thread that I can find, Mike Thomas was placed on IR today and isn't not expected to play this year.  Looks like the team told him twice to have surgery, and again he didn't....but now he will.  

"Thomas will have missed 40 over the past three. His future with the Saints is certainly in doubt in the wake of this news.
