Among the early transactions so far, who is going to have the biggest impact for their new team this season?
Feel free to add any other names not on the list.

No love for Marcus Robinson to the Vikes?
Granted, he's gotta prove he can make it for a whole season healthy, but with Moss and Marcus? That just stretches the field.
Not to worry, though: even if he proves gangbusters, there's no doubt that a kicker, or some such, will derail the Vikes. It's just our way! :D

I was only allowed 8 options when I created the post, so I had to be picky...so I'm gonna need moderator help at adding more options. Thanks Prof.

Take away Justin McCareins to the JETS. ;)
They could have gotten a better WR with the 2nd round pick they gave up.

I think Denver helped themselves a great deal getting Bailey. That was probably their weakest position last season and they went out and got one of the best. Now well just have to see if Shanahan is right and the Denver RB system creates the player and not the other way around.

If Kearse stays healthy, and Owens isn't a headcase, I think the Eagles have had a great offseason. If they do well in the draft...uh-oh.

Hahaha...that's always been a problem for Andy Reid.

I think Terrell Owens to the Eagles is the biggest offseason pickup so far. He fills a huge need for Philly. Their WRs were terrible next year and McNabb finally has a very good WR to throw to.

Well I think this offseason was better than the last one for the Eagles but I'm worried about all of the losses on the defense. Our dbs and run stopping are going to be pretty bad if we don't upgrade significantly before the fall.

"Their wide receivers were terrible next year." ???? I agree, but they won't be as terrible next year as last year. ;)
Since the Raiders couldn't stop the run at all last year, I'd say their acquisitions of DTs Ted Washington and Warren Sapp have been freaking huge.

As a Cowboy fan, I hope that Kearse doesn't do for the Eagles what Hailey did for the Cowboys in the early 90's.

I was listening to the radio and Peter King of SI said that the Cowboys dealing for Drew Henson is the best deal in his mind.

I normally respect what King has to say, but I have to disagree with him on this one big time.
Best deal? He only played in 8 college games and hasn't played organized football in over 3 years. He may have lots of athletic ability, but he has shown absolutely nothing. Maybe it will turn out to be a deal in the future, but I don't think he'll be lighting up the league within his first three years.

As a Michigan and Redskins fan, I hope LaVar Arrington bitch slaps him all over the NFC East. His name isn't even mentioned anymore in Ann Arbor.
