WHO WANTS A GUARD? It’s easier to count the teams that DON’T need a guard like Evan Mathis than it is to add up the list of potential suitors for the NFL’s newest free agent. The offseason’s big spenders, the Dolphins, are one of the teams said to be interested as of now.
Rise ‘n Grind: The race to sign Evan Mathis
Chip Kelly’s tough love lesson could be your team’s best offseason move.

PHILLY FALLOUT: That’s now three high profile Drew Rosenhaus clients (DeSean Jackson and LeSean McCoy are the other two) Chip Kelly’s Eagles have sent packing. But not to worry, according to Jason Peters’ calculations, the Eagles offensive line is somehow better now.
DONKEY DISCONTENT: The Broncos are one team that could sure use Mathis, but they only have $6.8 million in cap space at the moment. There’s also that little matter with Demaryius Thomas that Peyton Manning is NOT happy about.
FLYNNSANITY: The Patriots made an interesting move on Thursday, signing veteran backup Matt Flynn to their stable of quarterbacks. Is he going to challenge Jimmy Garroppolo or just shorten his leash? New England also jettisoned tight end Tim Wright, that guy who you probably picked up on waivers in your fantasy league last year only to be disappointed.
PROMISE FULFILLED: Ravens OL Kelechi Osemele bought his mom a house. What have you done for your mother lately?
BLUDGEON: Who knows if Jim Tomsula will find success coaching the Niners, but he’s already paying big dividends for t-shirt makers in the Bay Area.
