Nothing creates more interest in the NFL than trades. This is why Cleveland’s proposal to allow teams to trade picks up to 5 years out as opposed to 3 years out makes so much sense. More picks to trade = more trades = more interest & team building options.
Adam Schefter@AdamSchefter

If it seems like there have been more trades than ever, there have been. Since the 2026 new league year started last week, there have been 18 trades, including Andy Dalton today. From the day the 2025 new league year started until the NFL Draft, there were 15 trades. One week of the league year this year already has produced three more trades than there were over weeks last year.

@kdemoff Don't forget that no party from the team awarded points showed any intent to score or bring attention to the obscure technicalities involved. ... I'm curious how many other calls have been impacted by info relayed to game officials from entities outside the NFL.

@TBerlaga @jonkarl Cool. You came across that way by defending him with incorrect info, a very MAGA thing to do.

@TBerlaga @jonkarl Just because your boy Trump hates Karl, lobs middle school-level insults at him in his broken MAGA English, and wants him to be fired doesn't mean Karl isn't still employed by ABC News. Congrats on your loyalty to an equal opportunity rapist.

@auguststaley @jonkarl Your reality is defined by following Jonathan Karl who was fired by the network which hasn't been reporting reality for a decade. His reporting was insufferable even to them.

Conservative politics untempered by any sense of honor or Christian moralism is really ugly.

@seattlerams_nfl @QBsMVP Right. Lemon has all the characteristics of a Rams receiver, and there are signs, which of course makes me think they draft a freak athlete (Sadiq) or go stud LB, two things they never do.

@JoelleNemecek @QBsMVP I didn't follow Philly close enough to know what his exact issue has been. On one hand, Hurts is inconsistent as a passer and their offense regressed a few ways in 2025. In LA, Brown would be part of an all-star offense, not the featured guy so I don't fully trust he'd be happy.

@QBsMVP Rams definitely should NOT give up pick 13 for him. I also am not convinced the locker room won’t be negatively affected by adding him. Rams can’t have a “ME” player in the locker room no matter the talent level

If the Rams trade for AJ Brown, that's totally fine. Offense would basically become unstoppable, and I think he'd be an awesome fit in McVay's offense. But.... I would *not* trade a 1st for him, so iunno how this gets done.

@jasonselvig So fun when Trump's BS contradicts itself ... Iran's nuclear weapons program was destroyed months ago yet Iran was about to have an a-bomb. But Iran was never really a threat and any suggestion to the contrary would be Fake News. Also fake & unrelated to this: the Epstein Files.

@AllenSales @seattlerams_nfl Trading is probably the best option. Hard to imagine the Rams under McSnead being in a position to draft a great QB (outside of pure luck). But it would be so sweet to see McVay coaching a team with full resources and a great QB on a rookie deal.

@seattlerams_nfl Joe Burrow would be better. I would feel no pain if the Rams sent 3 first round picks for him lol.

@JV3MRC Typical rationale from the same people forever bitching about the Soros-funded leftist media, you know the one that's all owned by billionaires who will do anything to please petty, demented Trump. Same assholes claim to be Christians while they glaze a pedo administration.

@JV3MRC @DePaulU @LoriLightfoot Crazy you actually have the nerve to call yourself an editor when you apparently have no understanding of how basic tenets of journalism and Catholicism overlap.

@QBsMVP I'd be OK with that though I think Murray being Stafford's successor is a long-shot. Murray has played well at times and has plenty of tools. But I can't shake how intimidated and overwhelmed he looked in his one playoff game. As a one-year backup, I think he could be valuable.

I have no idea why Kyler Murray wouldn't want to go start somewhere, but if he wanted to come to LA, signing for the vet minimum would be a lights-out addition. I'm all for it — sit for a year, rehab your value + learn, potential successor to Stafford.

@SenMarkKelly Fixing Vance's statement: “I certainly empathize with Americans who are exhausted after 25 years of foreign entanglements in the Middle East...but the difference is back then we had dumb presidents. Now our president is different. He's petty, demented, narcissistic and dumb."

Donald Trump in 2024 - “You are not going to have a war with Iran with me as president.” JD Vance in 2025 - “I certainly empathize with Americans who are exhausted after 25 years of foreign entanglements in the Middle East...but the difference is back then we had dumb presidents.” Pete Hegseth in 2024 - “The foolishness with which we ricocheted around the world intervening, thinking it was in our best interest when really we just overturned the table and created something worse.” These people are against every war except the ones they start. That's what happens when you're surrounded by a bunch of yes men.
