Ryan Grant lands with Colts for 1 year

Literally as good of a spot as possible.

A guy in one of my leagues will be pleased - he went and spent about 20% of his BB budget on Grant last week when it looked like Grant would land with the Ravens.

"Willson is signing a one-year contract with the Lions, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. The Lions needed some veteran help at tight end after releasing Eric Ebron and losing Darren Fells in free agency. The position also figures to be a priority during the upcoming draft, but it does seem Willson found a destination where he'll at least have a shot at the No. 1 tight end gig."

Something to see here ? He is actually my 3rd TE behind a very questionable Eifert-Watson combo.

I actually believe he's an upgrade on Ebron. Maybe that's not saying a whole lot, but Willson can play.

He just didn't get much run with Jimmy Graham in town. Kind of disappointed that Seattle is letting him walk, but they're going to roll with Vannett and Dickson.

Luke Wilson is a gangster on the field.. doesn't rack up stats, but when called upon he makes the play, some pretty crazy highlights too. sad to see him let go

Cowboys signed Deonte Thompson for 1 year 2.5 million. He’s a decent player but kinda meh. I was really hoping they would sign Allen Hurns but who knows if they will or not.

Was hoping for Hurns as well, and this just feels like a band-aid. Not sure Thompson is a difference maker.

^I agree. I feel like this is just another Brice Butler type add where he'll come in and maybe beat out Butler's 14 receptions per year over the last 3 years, but that's about it.

Damien Williams signs in KC. What's that mean for Ware and West?

I think he's honest competition for Ware, and West already carried zero dynasty value for me.

Gore to Miami..

Gore to Miami..

As a Drake owner, I'm not too sad about this signing. I feel like they'll share the load.

I feel like this signing was best case scenario for Drake owners AND Gore owners.

If Drake is as good as his truthers believe, he will have NO problem keeping Gore's old butt on the bench.

If Gore has any juice left, then at least he went to a situation with only one guy above him on the depth chart. It wouldn't take too much chaos for Gore to be startable as a Flex for a couple weeks this season.

Yes, I see Gase wanting a veteran RB so that if injuries strike Drake, he is confident that Gore can do all the things an NFL RB should do like pass block, catch a bit, and get consistent yardage. Gore may not break off long runs anymore, but he still knows what to do when he's put in the game, whereas a rookie biggest flaw when coming in the league is pass blocking.

I don’t think he is either. He’s not horrible but just kinda, meh, probably not fantasy relevant. IRL, not a horrible signing for 1 year for 2.5 million but I just highly doubt that they sign Hurns now which I was hoping for, oh well.
