Adrian Peterson, Dez Bryant, Randall Cobb, Jimmy Graham, Jason Witten, Kyle Van Noy, Stephen Gostkowski, Jamal Adams, Calais Campbell, Frank Gore.
And so on, and so forth.
These noteworthy names all appear on the transfer list, not as ordinary players, but truly talented and capable players, yet their names populate the trade list amidst the league-wide arms race, showcasing the determination of the entire league.
Moreover, beyond these names, there are more sensational ones, perhaps not up to the likes of Brady and Watt, yet still stir waves throughout the league.
Todd Gurley, Los Angeles Rams running back, just two years ago was the highest-paid running back in the league, then refused to stand shoulder to shoulder with Le'Veon Bell in fighting for more benefits for running backs, arrogantly believing himself to be a special exception, yet was abandoned this offseason, transferring to the Atlanta Falcons.
