NFL Deadline Trades

Image
      You may correct me if I am wrong, but I don't believe the NFL has had a trade deadline as crazy as this years has been. There is always big trade talk circulating, but very rarely do these rumors ever come to fruition. The trade deadline becomes more like the deadlie.      This season, it seems that star players are just being shipped around with no warning. Here are all of the trades in the 36 hours leading up to the NFL trade deadline, and what to expect from them. Seattle Seahawks Acquire OT Duane Brown from Houston for CB Jeremy Lane & Draft Picks      This was the first trade of our Monday evening, and this one wasn't too much of a shocker. Reports have been surfacing from just about every NFL insider that the Seahawks were trying to land Brown in a trade for the last month, and it's finally gone through.      The Texans were trying to move their Pro Bowl left tackle for the right price, as he wasn't...

There are certain NFL quarterbacks who have a tendency to play great. As I watched the NFL Red Zone yesterday, I realized that now, more then ever, quarterback play is a very important aspect to a football team. A team with a quarterback who can't play WITH great receivers (Ahem, Brock Osweiler) becomes increasingly annoying to watch in this day and time, but quarterbacks that can still play at an elite level no matter who is catching the ball are truly remarkable to watch. So here are the Top 5 Active NFL Quarterbacks who make their receivers great. 5. Tennessee's Marcus Mariota Marcus is the 2nd year man out of Oregon who has been playing lights out in the NFL so far in his early days. The best thing about his accomplishments... Who is he throwing too? He has a big TE who gets a lot of targets, and is his most reliable receiver in Delanie Walker. Kendall Wright would be considered his most talented receiver, although he has done absolutely nothing in terms of production th...
