Teams are giving away players

[tepod2001]

Robert Quinn traded away for a 2020 6th round pick to Cowboys

Jordan Howard traded away for a conditional 2020 6th round pick to Philly

WOW

It's okay that he's gone!

If you want to be a winning team you should keep your cap lean and mean. Giving away players is far better than over paying them.

Interesting, neither team is really in a bad cap situation. Weird.

Howard is in a contract year, and he'll expect to be paid.

And RBs aren't worth paying.

Might as well at least get something for him.

They are not in a bad cap situation because they don't over pay players genius! Teams that know wtf they are doing are looking towards the future!

Howard had less than 1.9 YPC vs us last season because they started using him in predictable situations like we did with Blount and Riddick. He was never a threat to catch the ball as he was only targeted 26x last year. I like Josh Adams with Philly and think that going to another running back by committee situation isn't going to help him, he needs to be a full time lead back. If it works out for Philly it's because they have a better OL, Bears were stacked with injuries.

Didn’t see that Khalil Mack contract?

And Dolphins are blowing it all up, that’s why they’re dumping guys.

I agree with the concept that you are saying but....If teams are only willing to give up a 6th round pick a year away, what team is going to break the bank and put themselves in cap hell by signing these players to huge contracts?
