As in they'll hear whats happening in the building before anyone else but obviously it won't be the quick inside scoop everyone expects. 

He's also more gun shy ever since the Byron tweet about confirming anything.

It's obvious he still knows someone that's involved in some way.  Along with the Byron stuff, he had a post alluding to something happening just before the Ridley trade and the Athletic Podcast guys even mentioned that we were looking in to Slay yesterday so that checks out for him too.  He isn't as direct about anything anymore after all the Byron stuff.  He's mentioned us being interested in Poona Ford so it'll be interesting if anything ever comes of that.

There were tweets all over saying a move was in the works before the trade was announced, it was no secret we just didnt know whonit was.  I believe it was Mia the first one to break the news on the Ridley trade.  There were tweets by Fred, then Campbell, Slay responded with the eyes emoji.  He did the same things with one of the Ravens players etc. That's what everyone got excited about and then tried to run with it like it was really something lol.  Teams weren't going after him yet because he was never even cut.  His agent wasn't going to waste his time discussing a new contract with a team when Slay was still under contract with the Eagles, not even sure if that's legal being he was under contract.  The Eagles would have to give permission and that was never announced and it's clear now that they still wanted him.
