4 NFL landing spots if the Saints trade Pro Bowl guard Larry Warford

The New Orleans Saints might be shopping Pro Bowl guard Larry Warford after the 2020 NFL Draft. Teams like the Ravens should be interested.

Could the New Orleans Saints trade three-time Pro Bowl right guard Larry Warford? It’s certainly possible, especially after the Saints reinforced their interior line by picking Cesar Ruiz in the 2020 NFL Draft. The idea has been floated by both ESPN’s Bill Barnwell and The Athletic’s Sheil Kapadia, but which teams might be interested in Warford’s services? Here are a few suggestions.

Miami Dolphins

Miami signed Ereck Flowers in free agency to start at left guard, prompting last year’s starter Michael Deiter to slide over to the right side. He’ll be competing with in-house options like Jesse Davis, Danny Isidora, and the Ragin’ Cajuns own Robert Hunt, but none of them have the proven track record Warford boasts.

The Dolphins also have a wealth of draft capital to offer, with multiple picks in the first and second rounds (via Houston Texans), as well as rounds six (from the Pittsburgh Steelers and Seattle Seahawks) and seven (after a trade with the Atlanta Falcons).

However, there isn’t exactly a hot trader’s market for guards right now. The Saints would probably hope to acquire one of the late-round selections rather than a more valuable pick early in next year’s draft.

Seahawks linebacker K.J. Wright underwent shoulder surgery

The Seahawks’ selection of Texas Tech linebacker Jordyn Brooks is starting to make more and more sense.
Seahawks general manager John Schneider confirmed veteran linebacker K. J. Wright underwent shoulder surgery during the offseason and his return for the start of the year is uncertain.
“He’s rehabbing from his surgery,” Schneider told 950 KJR’s Softy and Dick show. “I’m not sure of the timeline of when he’s going to be back.”.
Schneider didn’t provide details about Wright’s procedure or when and if he’d be available should the season start on time this year

Former Alabama OL D.J. Fluker signing with Ravens

Former Alabama OL D.J. Fluker wasn’t on the free agent market long, switching from the Seahawks to Ravens in less than 24 hours.

D.J. Fluker was released by the Seattle Seahawks on Monday after two years with the team, but the former Alabama right tackle wasn’t on the free agent market long.

According to Ian Rapoport with the NFL Network, Fluker has agreed to terms with the Baltimore Ravens on Tuesday morning:

The news was later confirmed by Matt Zenitz with AL.com. Zenitz also made it known that the New Orleans Saints were being considered by Fluker as well:

This is an important signing for the Ravens, as they’re looking to replace All-Pro right guard Marshal Yanda, who chose to retire following the 2019 season.

Fluker was originally drafted by the San Diego Chargers at No. 11 overall in the 2012 NFL Draft, but after four up-and-down seasons, the 6-foot-5, 342-pound offensive lineman was released.

He then spent a year with the New York Giants in 2017, playing in nine games with six starts, before ending up in Seattle the last two seasons. During that time, he played in 24 games with 23 starts at right guard.

After the Seahawks drafted Damien Lewis out of LSU in the third round of last week’s draft, Fluker became expendable, but his landing spot in Baltimore couldn’t have been any better.

Fluker, a former five-star recruit out of Foley (Ala.), is expected to compete with 2019 fourth-round pick Ben Powers for the starting spot at right guard vacated by Yanda.

He’s also the sixth former Crimson Tide player to end up on the roster for the Ravens, joining Marlon Humphrey, Mark Ingram II, Bradley Bozeman, Andre Smith and Anthony Averett.
