Buy Or Sell

During this time, narratives take shape. Certain teams are expected to be contenders, certain teams are projected to take a step back. Players are labeled as "busts," "injury-prone," or "breakout candidates." Coaches are lauded for their work or placed on the proverbial hot seat.
NFLTR’s Ethan Woodie takes a look at six of these offseason narratives in his buy or sell article.

Cowboys EVP Stephen Jones said after submitting an offer to WR CeeDee Lamb a few days ago, Dallas received a counter on Sunday night.
Jones described conversations as "very upbeat, cordial" and active, Walker added.

Patriots OLB Matthew Judon has been looking for a contract extension that would provide him some security beyond the current season. However, the Patriots have opted to address some other players instead.
On Monday Judon was not in pads and was later seen speaking to HC Jerod Mayo, VP of player personnel Eliot Wolf and director of player personnel Matt Groh.
Judon was not seen at practice on Tuesday, although it’s unclear if he’s holding out or if he was sent home by the team.

The Chicago Bears and WR D.J. Moore have reached an agreement on a four-year, $110 million extension on Tuesday.
The contract reportedly includes $82.6 million guaranteed and will keep Moore under team control through the 2029 season.
