What did they do with the extra pieces they got from the trade?

They took DeWayne Carter with the 3rd they received and the 7th rounder was Travis Clayton, an OT who is in the International Pathway Program with us.

Speaking of Skylar Bell, he played hockey from ages 5-15. In the Bronx. Still follows the game and skates. He has made my list of favorites already.

IF it's legit, that's actually not too bad.  Not thrilled to have the bye in the 1st 1/2 of the season, but having it right before hosting the Crows works.

Also, not thrilled about them playing on Christmas Day.  Way too much of a chance to make it a really sweet or a really sour Christmas.

What’s up with a 1:25 start time?

Times all seem local.

So, that would be 4:25 for us in Eastern TZ.

That schedule doesn’t show them playing on Thanksgiving or Christmas. I thought that was already set?

I’m too lazy to do the math, but I think that it’s just showing whatever day is Sunday that week. It doesn’t show the actual game day.

Yes it does.  The column with dates to the left is the Sunday of that particular week.  The column with dates right next to the times is the one showing game date.  (IF it's legit; well, actually whether it's legit or not, that's where they're showing the game dates they're claiming.)

OK, didn’t even notice other column. Thanks

What would it take to trade for the GM of the Rams or Eagles?????

I bet we here with the Garrett trade "Bills were in the conversation " and I'll never be more mad 😡 

[Night Train]

Did Bills have the cap room for his contract ?  40 Mil a year.

He also had a no trade clause. I bet he hand picked that destination.

They didnt have a defensive rookie of the year to trade back.

According the the ESPN article regarding the trade (https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/48939456/sources-browns-rams-finalizing-myles-garrett-blockbuster-trade) the Rams were the only team that tried to acquire him:

Quote

The Rams' interest in Garrett was sparked shortly after the Browns modified the contract of the seven-time Pro Bowl defensive end in March, pushing back the options bonuses from the 15th day of the league year in March to seven days before the start of the regular season, making it easier to trade him.

The Browns were adamant that they had no interest in trading Garrett, and even told that to the Rams, according to sources.

But the Rams refused to give up what one source called their "persistent pursuit" of Garrett. Los Angeles, according to sources, continued calling and calling -- the only team that tried to pry loose a player the Browns once deemed untouchable.

That being said... I would be surprised if they didn't ask Garrett where he was fine with being traded to.. and then acquired the best deal from among those teams.
