Your best plan for the rest of the offseason..


WOW!!

Recommended Posts

Sign a CB now...E.J. Gaines is really the only potential "big" money guy left, but with his injury history who knows.  Let him sign, and sign a vet like Breaux for cheap. 

Sign a S soon...Honey Badger set the market, now the safeties can start signing.  Ron Parker, Mike Mitchell, Tre Boston. Pick one. 

TE...Sigh...Ebron.  The potential hopefully gets unlocked here.  

WR...Tricky.  We need another Vet IMO.  Cut Shepard yesterday, and we can't count on Byrd/Samuel until they prove otherwise.  Get me a guy.  I actually don't mind Bersin, but if he's on the field next year, failure by Hurney.

OL...would be nice to grab another vet, but don't know much about this market.

 

None of those positions should command much money at this point, so we shouldn't have cap issues.  If we do, cut Shepard, re-sign Cam now before Aaron Rodgers re-signs, whatever. 

Draft - - I think you could make a case for EVERY position except DT on this roster right now.  I don't know what will happen, but I feel like Hurney will be aggressive.  Could easily see us parting with picks next year for help now, and banking on comp picks.

really tho, if we sign ebron do we really need another reciever this year?  can only put so many players on the field.

Samuels injury has no timetable of recovery so depending on him is a gamble at this point.

I agree about samuel.  I just think you have 5 skill positions on the field at one time no matter how you slice it. I think we will have a rb on the field at all times, even if he goes wide.  That leaves 4 spots Funchess, Olsen, and Smith takes three spots.  Having Ebron/Samuel/Byrd/Armah be that last spot isnt horrible.

    • Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.
    • Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
    • Well, we got our answer on Army today.
