Everybody's body language in that clip sure suggests they actually did value Gibbs that high, for whatever that is worth. I don't think that many old dudes could effectively fake enthusiasm.

It feels worth pointing out that we all almost universally agreed that Holmes had a stellar offseason...but the one move that we collectively scratched our heads at was the Montgomery signing. With a little hindsight it sure seems to suggest that Holmes values RB very highly & perhaps on an entirely different scale than the rest of the league. I am also reminded of when Dan Campbell took over offensive playcalling duties two years ago and tried to run the ball like 80% of plays.

As far as trading Swift goes I don't imagine he attracts anything more than a 4th or 5th and at that point it seems like you almost get more value keeping him around, if leaning into RBs hard is the plan. Shrug
