between Walker and Nakobe Dean, the Raiders are loading up on athletic off-ball linebackers you don't totally trust

Rashan Gary's pressure rate the last 4 seasons:

2022: 19%
2023: 17.4
2024: 13.4
2025: 12.1

Micah Parsons' arrival and the specter of fewer double teams didn't help in Green Bay. he gets to be the primary pass rushing focus again (for now) in Dallas

Minkah Fitzpatrick trade grades: who won Jets-Dolphins deal? That's all Miami got for a three-time All-Pro safety? Here's what the Dolphins meager return means.

the Minkah Fitzpatrick trade tipped the Dolphins' plans for 2027. Miami's gonna be spending *next* offseason, so a valuable compensatory pick for letting him leave next winter wasn't in the cards

still... a SEVENTH ROUNDER???

Taylor Decker's release request only makes the Lions O-line fix harder The vibes have shifted in Detroit. 2026 could be Dan Campbell's toughest test yet.

if Taylor Decker gets his wish, only 1 starter from the Lions' 2024 cavalcade of o-line ass-kickers will be back for 2026.

with minimal cap space & having traded away both the team's 3rd round picks, well, unpleasantness may ensue

DJ Moore's yards per route run as a Bear:

2023: 2.31 (13th out of 102 qualified WRs)
2024: 1.43 (57th/103)
2025: 1.21 (63rd/94)

he was, somehow, at his best with Justin Fields and Tyson Bagent as his QBs. but he's only about to be 29 years old so... yeah it might work for the Bills

for the most part. occasionally you'll get a team jump in last minute to top a trade offer or wade in without a deal in place, but then they're ceding a lot of leverage to the player in negotiations after the fact (this was a Bill O'Brien specialty)

Patriots' Stefon Diggs release means a busy offseason in Foxborough Diggs was, in terms of EPA, the NFL's fourth-most valuable WR. Was this a case of getting rid of an off-field distraction, or something more?

Stefon Diggs was the NFL's fourth-most valuable WR in terms of total EPA. his importance to the Patriots & Drake Maye was worth a $26.5 million cap hit. but felony strangulation charges and the specter of an age-related decline forced the Pats to change plans

Rams' Trent McDuffie trade isn't another '[expletive] them picks' deal The Rams are in position to add an All-Pro cornerback specifically *because* Les Snead has done an incredible job creating value at the draft.

using the Belichick draft trade model, the excess value Les Snead got in last year's Rams-Falcons trade was equal to a late 1st round pick

today, Snead acquired a 25-year-old cornerback who has been an All-Pro half his seasons in the league... for a late 1st
