.
The reshuffling of rosters continued on Thursday throughout the NFL with the second day of the new league year. While Wednesday marked the official starting point of free agency, this is really Day 4 of the action with the legal tampering period kicking off earlier this week where we saw several big names come to terms on deals.On Wednesday, there were also a number of major free agent shoes that dropped, particularly at pa s rusher with heading to Buffalo and inking a deal with the . Rich Hill Jersey As Thursday tried to carry the baton, it was the offensive side of the ball that made the most waves with the defending Super Bowl champions giving quarterback another star weapon as they prepare for a title defense.Below, you'll find our rundown of all the top moves that occurred in the NFL on Thursday and our grades for those transactions. to the The rich get richer in Los Angeles. The Rams were able to agree to a three-year, $46.5 million deal with former wide receiver. With and still under contract, this is an embarra sment of riches for Matthew Stafford and the pa sing game and should help them tremendously as they look to become the first team to win back-to-back Super Tommy Lasorda Jersey Bowls in nearly two decades. With Robinson now in the fold, it will be curious to see how hard the Rams will pursue retaining , who is recovering from a torn ACL.Grade: A joins secondaryAtlanta added the former Pro Bowl corner to its secondary after the two sides agreed on a two-year, $11 million contract. Hayward could very well be replacing as the team's No. 2 corner opposite of . Hayward is coming off a strong season in 2021 where he was one of Pro Football Focus' highest grade corners and broke up nine pa ses through 17 Bobby Miller Jersey games in Las Vegas. His presence in the secondary should help a Falcons secondary that ranked 29th in the NFL against the pa s in DVOA last season.Grade: B to the After being released by the on Wednesday, it didn't take long for Phillips to find a new -- and familiar -- home as he returned to the Buffalo Bills on a one-year deal. Phillips was with the Bills from 2018-2019 before leaving for Arizona. He adds to what is set to be a stout defensive line that just made a major splash on Wednesday with the blockbuster signing of pa s rusher Von Miller and should be a strong depth piece behind . The 29-year-old had his most productive season in the NFL with the Bills in 2019 (9.5 sacks). If he can rekindle that level of play, Buffalo got that much scarier in the AFC.Grade: B add The Bengals needed to find themselves a tight Duke Snid Jersey end after losing to the in free agency and were able to land Hurst on a one-year deal. Hurst, a former first-round pick, requested a trade away from the after he was behind on the depth chart and eventually found his way to Atlanta in 2020. In his first season with the Falcons, Hurst did flash some of that first-round potential, catching a career-high 571 yards and six touchdowns. However, with the Falcons drafting last offseason, he again found himself buried on the depth chart. In Cincinnati, he'll have another chance to showcase his capabilities as a starter with plenty of other weapons garnering the bulk of the coverage.Grade: C+ heads to FoxboroughThe are signing the wide receiver/running to a Yasiel Puig Jersey two-year deal. While the veteran may have some thinking this could be a reincarnation of from the 2018 season due to Montgomery's versatility, he's likely more of a replacement after he signed a deal with the Raiders. Montgomery played 48% of the special teams snaps for New Orleans last season and that's a role he'll likely be looking at with the Patriots as well with , , and logging most of the work out of the backfield. Grade: C
