There are two ways to look at this trade, Greeny is a defensive coach so he doesn’t need Gardner and should focus on building his offense or Greeny is a defensive coach and he should play to his strengths. Caleb is pretty much all he could have hoped for with XF dev, now it is up to Greeny to make it happen with him.
Buffalo Bills – How much do they miss Tre White and Von Miller?
The Bills made it further than many expected last year, taking down the AFC one seed and making the conference championship game. They lose their two best players on defense. Tre White is replaced by Jaycee Horn, Miller is replaced by rookie Laitu Latu.
New England Patriots – How soon will the young guys be ready?
The Patriots are starting 7 rookies, including QB, RB, and 3/4 of the defensive line. Run defense was an issue for the Patriots, how will the new guys hold up? Is Riley Leonard the guy. If the Patriots want to have similar success to last year they will have to do it with a lot of new faces.
Miami Dolphins – Was the Waddle trade worth it?
Waddle was traded for an offensive lineman? Am I tracking that right? As good as Devon Achane is, eventually he has to get stopped right? I don’t get the trade.
Pittsburgh Steelers – Is this defense still good enough to get them to the playoffs?
We can probably assume that winning the division is out of the equation. Cam Heyward and Minkah Fitzpatrick were monsters last year, propelling this team to the top of the AFC North and to a playoff win. Heyward regressed but still has inside stuff. Minkah is still a top tier safety. Can TJ Watt step up to help out an aging Heyward? Is Heyward able to repeat last season?
Baltimore Ravens – Is Sauce Gardner enough?
The Ravens had the top pick and traded it for the best CB in the league. How much of a difference will it make? I want to believe, but I have been disappointed by this teams enough time where I have to see it to believe it.
Cleveland Browns – Is the Franchise QB on the roster?
The roster outside of QB is one of the best in the league. Is Watson the guy? Is DTR the guy? Is Sam Hartman the guy? Honestly it’s probably the evolve guy
Cincinnati Bengals – Compete or youth movement?
This roster feels like it is in between phases, some aging veterans with some good young pieces. I think this could be a very active team at the trade deadline one way or another.
