Around the NFL: News and Rumors

The Athletic's Connor Hughes reports the Redskins are "pretty set" on a second-round pick in exchange for LT Trent Williams.
A Jets reporter, Hughes believes this has Gang Green out of the running for Washington's longtime left tackle. Williams is also believed to be seeking a $20-million-per-year extension. A second-round pick is a perfectly reasonable demand, but Washington was much more likely to get that last year. Instead, they were pigheaded and forced Williams to sit out.

ESPN's Adam Schefter confirms free agent Tom Brady is expected to sign with the Buccaneers.
"There's no signing date or announcement officially set up, but Brady is expected to be a Buccaneer," Schefter reported. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport piggybacked with a report that Brady is expected to fetch "roughly" $30 million per season. It's possible there is a mystery team or two, but with the Patriots out of the running and Brady believed to have ruled out the Chargers, the Bucs are the only game in town for the NFL icon. It should become official some time within the next 24 hours, and likely as early as Tuesday evening.

Living in FL, I got a number of friends who are Bucs fans. I'm happy for all of them. Lord knows they need SOMETHING good for a change.
Rappaport just reported that Brady and the Bucs have an agreement in Principal.

hard same. It’s gonna be amusing because most of my buddies here in Tampa are Brady haters. That’s gonna change real quick.
I hope Brady is ready to play in a real division

So you needed two full paragraphs to shred my thoughtful discourse? If I were you I would have done it in a sentence such as - 'You my friend are full of hypothetical dong'

A couple of my friends already changed up their energy lol. A third (who I routinely text about basically anything NFL stuff) likes the Pats because his dad's a Pats fan so he's ecstatic that his boy is now the franchise QB of his Bucs.

Mods, can we implement the fire emoji on this board?

Cowboys signed DT Gerald McCoy, formerly of the Panthers, to a three-year contract.
McCoy's counting stats lacked in his lone season with the Panthers but the 32-year-old interior beast still popped on tape to the naked eye. He's a necessary (and, frankly, surprising) addition for the Cowboys following the losses of Robert Quinn and Maliek Collins in free agency. Dallas DC Mike Nolan will undoubtedly ask McCoy to move across their trenches as he's more than capable of playing in any 5-, 3- or 1-technique on the line of scrimmage. He'll look to keep his current streak of five sacks in each of the last eight seasons going with his third squad in as many years.

Ever since that ugly man spurned the pretty Raven at the altar to choose a toothless panther I dislike him. But curiosity has me wonder if the Ravens even bothered to reach out to him. I doubt it because we are all prideful bastards.
doubtful after signing both Campbell and Brockers.
Big News, Bears are completing a trade for Nick Foles.
