I was a little sad when he moved on, but now, I have moved on. I wish him the best and all, but nah, probably not in 'sota.

Report: Seahawks will dump Red Bryant

http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/20 ... ed-bryant/

Alex Marvez of FOX Sports reports that the Seahawks are expected to cut Red Bryant. The cap space would be then used to help keep Bennett.

Bryant, a fourth-round pick in 2008, started 15 regular-season games and two playoff games in 2013.


Certainly wouldn't mind seeing the Vikes make a run at him. He wouldn't be much of a pressure guy, but as a 1st and 2nd down player, he could help bring a solid presence against the run. He might command some coin on the open market, but we have the cap room to work with.

During a meeting with coach Joe Phibin, GM Dennis Hickey and CEO Dawn Apante, Jonathan Martin's representation conveyed to the Dolphins that Martin isn't comfortable returning to Miami.
Per CBS Sports' Jason La Canfora, Martin's agents told the Dolphins that a return to the team "wouldn't work." Martin still wants to play in 2014, but not in Miami. In the meeting at the Combine, Hickey reportedly did all the talking and expressed a heavy interest in retaining the third-year tackle, while Philbin was "staring daggers across the room." Philbin reportedly blames Martin's reps for the Martin-Richie Incognito fiasco reaching the level it has. The Dolphins are in the market for four starting offensive linemen. C Mike Pouncey is safe.
Wonder if he'll be cut...?

Or traded.

Sounds like there is no way he plays in Miami...or even wants to. I think that's a wise choice. It'll be interesting to see where he ends up...maybe on his couch?

Rotoworld speculated that a team like the 49ers could maybe trade for him because of the Harbaugh connection. However, with the current Harbaugh drama...I don't know. 49ers value depth on their OL and it's not totally impossible to think they'd go for him. Much like Michael Sam, Jonathan Martin needs a very solid organization to go to with stability in the locker room. Another possibility would be for the Colts to grab him because their OL isn't excellent and he'd be playing with Andrew Luck...his former QB in college/good friend. Pagano seems like a great leader and no non sense kind of coach. Really, it's the contender teams I see maybe kicking the tires on Martin: Colts, Pats, Broncos, 49ers, Seahawks.
