SAVANNAH ACQUIRES:
RB ISAIAH CROWELL
WR CECIL SHORTS III
TE DWAYNE ALLEN
PAWNEE ACQUIRES:
WR JAMES JONES
TE ANTONIO GATES
TE LADARIUS GREEN
The Petes clear their glut of tight ends- they've moved on from all three of their draft picks now over the course of two trades, and will move forward with Kyle Rudolph (currently healthy) and blocking specialist Dwayne Allen, who remains kinetic in the red zone. The more interesting gets are RB Isaiah Crowell, who gives Savannah another plowhorse, with Carlos Hyde gimpy. WR Cecil Shorts is an okay flex option that also offers some insurance, should Deandre Hopkins miss time.
The Pride now have four TEs on their roster (three Chargers!) and will have to wait another two weeks to see what Antonio Gates has left. At his best, Gates is a difference maker at the position, a top five option at a position that lacks week to week security. Ladarius Green has been anointed Gates' successor for several years now, but has yet to really take command of the role- his first two weeks have shown promise, but now he's injured and questionable. WR James Jones, week one's PUotW gets shopped out after three scores in two weeks. He won't keep that up, and the veteran's role will probably diminish as younger, fresher talents gain their feet, but he's not going to fade away easy.
