NFL Rumors: Earl Thomas, Star Lotulelei, Jets

March 4, 2018

Tony Pauline reports that several teams are openly talking about the possibility of trading for Seahawks S Earl Thomas and discussing how he would fit their system.
Reports previously mentioned that there was a “good chance” the Seahawks could make Thomas and CB Richard Sherman available for trade at the Combine. (NFLTR)
Jason La Canfora also said he expects the Seahawks to trade two of Thomas, DE Michael Bennett and Sherman.

According to Tony Pauline, the Texans and Chiefs have both show interest in Panthers free agent DT Star Lotulelei.

Sources have told Tony Pauline of DraftAnalyst.com that the Jets’ gameplan in free agency includes re-signing CB Morris Claiborne and keeping Buster Skrine.
Pauline says it’s unlikely the Jets will seriously pursue free agent CB Trumaine Johnson, but they do have their sights on a mid-tier free agent.
While there has been some talk that Patriots CB Malcolm Butler could be an option for the Jets, Pauline hears that they’re instead leaning towards Redskins CB Bashaud Breeland.
Should the Jets miss out on QB Kirk Cousins, Pauline says that the contingency plan for the New York is to go after Sam Bradford.
The Jets have been linked to Giants C Weston Richburg for weeks now, but Pauline says the market for him has “exploded” and there are plenty of teams with a lot of interest in him.
As of now, the Jets have yet to show interest in re-signing C Wesley Johnson.
