Moving Day

Jamal Lewis to the Browns.
Terrible for Lewis. Doesn't he know that his best games came against the Browns? Sure, he'll rush for 1,000 yards in practice, but that's about it.

Dre Bly, Travis Henry to the Broncos
The Lions apparently didn't like having a Pro Bowl player, it threw off the team's chemistry. Although Bly isn't happy because he wanted to play for Washington to be near his house in Virginia. Uh, both Washington and Virgina sucks. Be quiet and enjoy the mountains.

Ahman Green to the Texans
See, why waste a draft pick on Reggie Bush when you can sign Ahman Green. Makes perfect sense.

Napolean Harris to the Chiefs
He's good, right?

Joey Porter to the Dolphins
The Dolphins look like they will have a solid defense. If they sign Trent Green, which they are interested, they could be competitive this year. But I don't see Green being great anymore. Better than what they have, sure. (I was a huge Green fan prior to 06, but injury aside, he's too old. Even before the playoff game, I knew I didn't want him to start it)

Adalius Thomas, Wes Welker to the Patriots
No surprise here, Pats always make good moves. Welker is rivaling Drew Bennett as my favorite white receiver. Could be productive with Brady.

Thomas Jones to the Jets
Conventional Wisdom is that the Bears couldn't afford to keep him when they have Benson. But I think that's a terrible move by the Bears. The best teams have 2 running backs and especially when the QB position is so shaky, you need Jones. Grossman-Benson backfield is not inspiring confidence. Combined with departure of Defensive Coordinator, problem with Briggs, and Super Bowl jinx, I expect a letdown season from the Bears. I would say they wouldn't win their division, but their division is abysmal. Perhaps the Packers can do something. Move makes sense for Jets, who are up and coming with the Manginius.The AFC East is the opposite of NFC North.

Joe Horn to the Falcons
Vick has never had a good receiver. Joe Horn is overrated. I'm sure everything will work out.

Brad Johnson to the Cowboys
So BJ will now backup Romo. What does the Vikings QB Depth Chart look like?
Tarvaris Jackson, Brooks Bollinger, Drew Henson. Wow.

Tatum Bell to the Lions
This makes sense because the only good player that the Lions have is Kevin Jones, so it makes sense to trade a DB for RB (I know I advocate a 2-back system, but that's when you have the luxury of having other good players). What the Lions really need, is another good receiver. But I guess there's always the Draft.

Brian Simmons to the Saints
I'm not sure how good Simmons is, but if can add a little defense to the best offense in the league, combined with the NFC sucking, Bush and Brees only getting better, and the Bears downturn, I expect big things from the Saints.

Nate Clements, Ashley Lelie to the 49ers
These blockbuster moves establish the 49ers as the odds on favorite for Super Bowl XLII.

Drew Bennett to the Rams
St. Louis heard how Detroit was going after running backs, and decided that wide receivers were their thing.

Jeff Garcia, Jake Plummer to the Bucs
They already had Simms and Gradkowski for the future, so Garcia seemed like a good move. And Plummer prior to 06 had 3 solid years in a row, but do they really need him? And now he's retired, but only sort of? It's just stupid.

Fred Smoot to Washington
Smoot likes double dongs. There I said it.


Other Moves:
Steelers resign Najeh "The Dump Truck" Davenport
Pats cut Corey Dillon
Colts cut Brandon Stokely
Dolphins cut Joey Harrington

I bet a Harrington-Dillon-Stokely combination could do better than a couple of teams out there.
