QB Carousel Spins: Tom Brady, Philip Rivers, Teddy Bridgewater Find New Homes

Wrapping up the second day of the tampering period, with the opening of the league year (when all these deals become official) less than 24 hours away.

• I’ve been asked a bunch why the Colts opted to go with Philip Rivers, with Tom Brady sitting out there on the market. Here’s my feeling on it: GM Chris Ballard has been building for three years, two with Frank Reich as coach, and they’ve made a ton of progress. That progress took a big hit last summer when Andrew Luck retired. That didn’t change the fact that they’ve done a ton of good work in fixing the offensive line, and bringing young, athletic difference-makers to the defense.
