Heyward has been an elite interior defender during his career and would certainly be a fantastic addition, but with Alim McNeill and D.J. Reader on the roster, Detroit is unlikely to pursue him if available.
Hard to envision Cameron Heyward in a Lions uniform.
The other two, Judon and Reddick, have already been discussed ad naseum.
Redick was just traded, can he even be moved twice in the same year? If so, wouldn’t the fact that the Jets would be willing to do it be a huge red flag?
Rumor I’m starting is Cam Sutton coming back to use for a 5th. You heard it here first.
I heard they traded for benson again and are moving him to corner. 
I don’t know what the Jets are doing. How do you trade for a guy wanting a new contract….then not give him a new contract and wonder why he’s holding out?
Are they hedging on Benson?
I think there’s a ‘things will work out’ approach to it honestly. And they may be right, this may all be moot by the start of the season. But lots of teams have traded for/signed guys on the last year of a deal (the Niners with Chase Young last year, for example), and I’m sure those players would have liked new contracts. It’s up to the FOs to figure out whether they’ll play - and play well - without one.
Young was during the season. The reason the Eagles were trading him is because they didn’t want to do a new contract. You would have thought the Jets would have worked something out before trading for him. He missed the whole off season and now it’s into training camp. Maybe they were to distracted by all the Rodgers BS and forgot they had traded for a disgruntled Reddick lol.
It’s possible but teams trade for guys like that all the time. And it works out a lot. Trent Williams actually sat out games for Washington in a contract dispute before SF traded for him, and he’s been fantastic for them. And they didn’t give him a new contract until a year after he got there. My hunch is this business with Redick gets worked out fine.
Quite possibly, I’m on record saying I wouldn’t have made the trade myself (and wouldn’t trade for Judon for the same reason), but these things work themselves out more often than not.
