Well I said this above but I can tell you with 100% certainty that his attitude was not an issue in Minnesota and that was even with his incredibly limited role.

He threw Bridgewater under the bus by saying he wasn't going back to Minnesota because he needed a better quarterback. That's a pretty shitty attitude to have.

Skins signed Galette for 1 year, ~$4 million. Could be a total steal if he can stay healthy. Our pass rush could be pretty scary with Galette, Kerrigan, and Preston Smith.
Hopefully Galette goes crazy this year for 10+ sacks and earns himself a massive contract somewhere else to bring us a 3rd round compensatory pick in 2018.

Cleveland Browns cut Karlos Dansby, Dwayne Bowe
Bowe became the poster child for the dysfunction of the team in 2015. He was one of the worst free-agent signings in team history. He was given a two-year, $12.5 million deal a year ago after he was released by Kansas City. The Browns guaranteed $9 million of that contract. For that money, they got five receptions for 53 yards.

What's the story with Dansby? I feel like he should still be serviceable.
Some competitive team will pick up Bowe and he'll be productive again.
Edit: Read the article. I guess Dansby is still good, it's just that they're a crap team and are cutting him loose. Seems kind of a dick move to hold onto him this long, instead of cutting him earlier. It also makes no damn sense because half of it is dead money. Does anyone know if that means the team that picks him up can use the dead money (owed money) to lower his cap hit? I know the Redskins aren't active in FA this year, but that would be seriously tempting.

No. That's money he was guaranteed and has already been paid by the Browns. Him signing another team will have no impact on it.
Martellus Bennett traded to the Patriots, according to Schefter.
Teams finalizing deal, but Chicago and New England are expected to swap mid-to-late round picks in exchange for Martellus Bennett.

Combination of getting Zach Miller signed and Bennet being his usual crazy and off putting self. Good move in my opinion.

There is a whole thread on Daily Norseman basically going over how the issue isn't really on Bridgewater, moreso on Wallace's inability to actually catch a damn ball. They have like 30 gifs of him dropping blatantly easy catches. If the ball doesn't land in his arms directly, then he cannot catch as he does not give any effort to get to the ball. Diggs is 20x the WR he is and there is a reason Wallace has been shit nearly everywhere he's gone after the Steelers, and it is more on him than his QBs. Bridgewater definitely has room to grow on his deep ball throws, but his O-Line didn't help him either.
Diggs: 654 snaps/720 yards (1.10 yds/sn)
Wallace: 751 snaps/473 yards (0.63 yds/sn)
