Depends on who is offering the 2 picks. Buffalo, not so much, but if it's Houston offering them up, then hell yeah!

Update from earlier post: Giants TE Bellinger suffered a fractured eye socket and septum and Giants coach Brian Daboll says the tight end will require surgery and will be out for an extended period of time. Not expected to be season ending.

Kid was doing well. Hope he recovers soon.

Staley says Mike Williams will miss "weeks not days" with his ankle injury. IR is very much in play.

Update - this is for rest of season, and Ryan will miss week 8 due to shoulder issue
So, PFT has a great story on why Matt Ryan is finished. Basically it is contract. He is guaranteed $12 million for next year, but he also has $10 million roster guarantee and $7 million in injury protection if he is not healthy on 3rd day of new season. So basically he is done in Indy at the behest of the owner, and it will be a $17 million cap savings for the team by letting him go at the end of the season.

Lets talk about Bill and his QB management. The Pats got zapped!
It was the right move though, at least for that game. They were pretty listless with Jones in and Zappe gave them a spark

I was suprised how good the Chicago offense looked. Thought the Pats D would crush them

Bears followed the path that the Ravens showed. Setting up controlled runs by QB can't be handled by Bill's defense.
