    For a fourth round pick

    WOW the rich just got richer.
    Looks like the Eagles are making a push thinking it might be their year.

    Can't say I am sad to see him leave our division.

    After hearing the Eagles were trying to load up for a playoff run, I had thought Forte would've been a good fit. They got a younger, better back on the cheap. so a Forte deal would've netted nothing.

    Anyone who thinks the Jets didn't get a good return for Richardson should pay attention to some of these trades.

    The Jets have had talks of trading Wilkerson in the past.

    I don't understand this trade, particularly for the Dolphins. Unless they suspect Ajayi won't be around much longer due to health.

    Hmmm..I remember many people losing their minds over the trade including the media.

    Apparently, that is a major reason why the trade occurred. Miami does not believe Ajayi has much of shelf life in the NFL

    Your correct.
    I think it was even a thread topic by front office fanatic or there were a lot of comments about it in one of his threads.

    I think so too. I think there are some locker room issues in Miami they have been trying to keep quiet. You don't trade a promising talent like Ajayi for peanuts unless there are attitude issues

    Haven't really been keeping it Quiet at all. Gases went off after the Ravens and called out the RBs and WRs and made it clear there were changes coming . Most were expecting Landry to be traded been t Ajayi was called out for not doing what coaches were telling him to do specifically.

    A 4th for a potential franchise RB, wow. This basically confirms that Forte has literally no trade value.

    It's interesting that teams nowadays would much rather trade away their problems than try to fix them. Shows how little they think of most players - they're mostly just interchangeable parts to them.

    It's a business at the end of the day.

    It's no wonder interest in the NFL is in a deep slide downward.
