Thursday Quick Hits

posted in Marshawn Lynch, Cleveland Browns, New Orleans Saints, Baltimore Ravens, Adrian Peterson, Atlanta Falcons, Trades, Buffalo Bills, Free Agency, 2007 NFL Draft |
  • The Browns signed former Ravens RB Jamal Lewis to a one year contract. This may pave the way for the Browns to take Adrian Peterson, and use him as the Patriots used Dillion/Maroney last season. Lewis will get to take on his former team twice a year.
  • As for the Ravens, the War Room Report is hearing that the Buffalo Bills will trade Willis McGahee to the Ravens, in exchange for a 2nd rd pick and a later pick. This would probably force Buffalo to draft Marshawn Lynch, as predicted in the last War Room Report Mock Draft.
  • The Saints inked former 49er Tight End Eric Johnson. TE was a weak spot for the Saints last year, and while Johnson is not a huge playmaker, his signing will probably prevent the Saints from using a first day pick on a tight end.
  • Former Saint, Joe Horn, signed with the Falcons. Horn should be a stabilizing influence on a team that has lackluster WRs. The Falcons should still address the WR position early in the draft.

The War Room Report will be updating on mock draft later today!

    In addition, the release of Eric Johnson opens up a lot of opportunities for Vernon Davis in SF.

    Good call Justin. Now… can Davis take advantage of that?

    I think so. Even with Turner gone, I think the 49ers have a foundation to do a lot of good things this year, especially on offense. Without any stud (or even halfway decent) WRs, Davis should excel, provided he doesn’t break a leg.
