What a day in football! So many trades, so many moves, and so many questions that we are still wondering about. But in this post we will grade the big moves from yesterday and today.
 |
| The Eagles are making their push for a title by getting Nnamdi |
Asomugha signs with the Eagles Grade: A++++
The Eagles are so lucky they got the best player in all of free agency, CB Nnamdi Asomugha. They are making their defensive better by 100,000%. That is all you need to know
Haynesworth is traded to the Patriots Grade: B
The Patriots surprised the world twice. They traded not only for Ochocinco, but for DL Albert Haynesworth. To get the big D-Lineman all they need to give the Redskins a 2013 5th Round Pick. This is a good deal because the Pats need pass rush help and Haynesworth puts pressure on the QB. I just wonder if Haynesworth will put the work in.

| Ochocinco finally get his chance to win a Super Bowl. |
The Patriots surprised everyone by trading for WR Chad Ochocinco. They need just to give Cincinnati a 2012 5th Round draft Pick and a 2013 6th Round Draft Pick to get the 4 time All-Pro. Ochocinco also restructured his contract to fit New England's cap. This is another Bill Bellacheck genius move. The Patriots need a big time receiver who can go deep and Chad can be that guy. I also think Ochocinco will toned his antics down because he really wants to win a title.
Kolb is traded to the Cardinals Grade: A+
Kevin Kolb is no longer a back up. The Eagles traded him to the Cardinals for CB Dominque Rogers-Cromartie (Who will team up with Asomugha in the secondary) and 2012 2nd Round Pick. This deal is smart for both teams. The Cardinals needed a quarterback badly. Last year, the QBs that played for Arizona were horrible. Kevin will fit the need.
Bush is traded to the Dolphins Grade: A

| Reggie Bush is taking his talents to South Beach |
Reggie Bush's contract was too much for the Saints. They traded him to the Dolphins. The Dolphins needed to get a running back since Ronnie Brown is a free agent. Bush will work well in Miami. He will be the player the Dolphins want.
Joseph signs with the Texans Grade: A
What held the Houston Texans back last year, pass defensive. The secondary was dreadful. To fill that hole they decided to get Jonathan Joseph. Joseph was in the top 3 for conerbacks on the market. He will immediately make an impact.
Sproles signs with the Saints Grade: B
After trading away Reggie Bush the Saints got Darren Sproles. This deal is a needed one but I don't think it will make a big difference. Sproles is just like Reggie Bush, a running back who can run the ball, catch the ball, and be the kick returner.
