BRIT TOWERS HERALD

  The Glasgow Claymores were back in trade action today, in their hunt for a Bowl and promotion to the BFC. The 2020 BFA Bowl runners-up traded Jayon Brown, Micah Hyde and their 18.15 pick to the Jurassic Coast Jackrabbits and in exchange received Justin Simmons and the 19.05 and 20.05 pics from the Jackrabbits. Glasgow Claymores have been extremely busy during this off-season. Gary, the GM of the Claymores, hosted what is becoming a common press conference with reporters today. "Jayon is a player I'm sad to see go. He's a solid LB and a law abiding citizen, which seems hard to come by these days. Until Smith's arrival, he was a lock in as my keeper. However, the Smith trade sent shockwaves through my plans and opened up new opportunities to strengthen other aspects of my roster." Gary went on to talk about Hyde. "While Hyde is a solid enough player, my DB core is full of talented and mostly honest guys, a few of which I was happy to roll with as keepers into...

  Yesterday afternoon the Glasgow Claymores agreed a trade with the South Yorkshire Jaguars for linebacker Shaq Barrett. The Claymores are looking to go one better than just reaching a Bowl this year, they want to win it, whereas the Jaguars are rebuilding after a difficult season. The Jaguars received Shaq Barrett and sent their 13th round draft pick to the Claymores. To make room for Barrett the Jaguars released Mack Wilson. The Claymores GM, Gary, met with the press soon after the trade was confirmed. "Delighted to get a deal done for Shaq. I was concerned my lack of experience was going to catch up with me when I initially brought Shaq and Mike Evans to Glasgow. In hindsight this wasn't the best long term move."  Gary was referring to the trade with Deal Broncos which saw Barrett move to the Claymores in exchange for Tremaine Edmunds and the Claymores 15th round pick. "However, since being able to bring in Jaylon Smith in exchange for Evans last week and now a 13...

  As we rush into free agency and the NFL Draft counts down, it has been surprisingly quiet over the last few weeks with regards to trades in all the leagues. There was a lot of action in February, many trades on multiple days (see our article Trading Places ). Many teams appear to be holding off, waiting to see what occurs during free agency but also because of the draft. The top three leagues do not have to name their 8 roster keepers until 1st June, giving them plenty of time to observe what is going on in the NFL.  That could be a reason for the quiet trade front recently, but that was broken today as the Perthshire Wild Things and Stevenage Sabres announced their big trade. Perthshire have been extremely busy in the trading arena recently, securing multiple picks in many rounds. Stevenage, on the other hand, had not traded. The Sabres and Wild Things won their divisions last season, South and West respectively and both with a 9-4 record. Stevenage lost out in the Division...
