The Daily Twitter: 24 October 2018

Big thanks to the @Redskins organization for how they handled everything with Rich Tandler’s passing. They helped in many ways and made his family feel special. Was a loss for the organization as well. Lots will feel the void.

I criticised Jay Gruden for running the ball too often on 1st down vs Dallas, so I went and looked it up. they had 17 1st & 10 plays outside of the 2 min drill/red zone. They ran the ball 15 times, passed twice. had 72 yards on the ground at 4.8 ypc. Both passes were incomplete

Going back through the game and Swearinger's forced fumble is still crazy. Not like he got a running start at Dak. Generated a lot of force from a short distance. Remember when Uma had to break out the coffin in Kill Bill? Lotta force with no momentum.

The Saints, bidding to win another Super Bowl before Drew Brees is done, bolster their secondary with the Eli Apple trade... https://t.co/b56iuxySWV

— MarkMaske (@MarkMaske) October 23, 2018

So it’s:
CB Eli Apple to the Saints.
WR Amari Cooper to the Cowboys.
RB Carlos Hyde to the Jaguars.
And NFL trade deadline is still over a week away...

— Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) October 23, 2018

Saints now have one pick, a second-rounder, in the first four rounds of next year's draft. Other picks used in the trades to get Marcus Davenport, Teddy Bridgewater and now Eli Apple.

— MarkMaske (@MarkMaske) October 23, 2018

The Saints don’t care at all about draft picks . They clearly wanna get one more ring with Drew Brees. https://t.co/nT9AYrJaJO

— Master (@MasterTes) October 23, 2018

With two trades over the past 24 hours, the #Giants have cleared $7.9M of 2019 cap, and now hold approx. $33M of space next year. It’s likely they’ll add another $17M to this per the trade, release, or retirement of Eli.

Damon Harrison, $5.4M
Eli Apple, $2.5M
