General NFL Free Agency Thread

To be honest, for me the most disappointing moment so far has been Fitzpatrick to WFT. I had this stupid little fantasy in my mind that we could somehow trade Teddy to WFT for a 3rd or 4th and then sign Fitzmagic to play for our beloved Panthers. Now, before you criticize me, I will openly admit that it was illogical but I will defend myself by saying it was my fantasy. I've always liked and respected Ryan and have always cheered for him. I like that he was drafted in the 7th round and yet he's still here. He's played for 8 different teams, yet he's still here. He's always played for bad teams, yet........, you get the idea. He finally played for a half way decent team and had his best year even when the team didn't really want him. 

I like that he graduated from Harvard yet looks like me and my friends. He has a large family and gets along with everyone. He is an underdog that never stops smiling. I really wanted to call that man my QB for at least 1 season. Instead he goes to one of the teams I least wanted him to go to. I still wish him the best and will still secretly root for that guy. I think he would have been fun to watch with us next season.

Bro I got Fitzpatrick in the HOF and Ill fight for that. Not a first ballot or 8 year wait, very close to the 15 year end. He is the greatest backup in NFL history for the most important position on all sports. His numbers are insane and had some of the most memorable plays too. Won with teams that had no talent, hes a magic man!

Adoree Jackson just got let go in Tennessee. 

25 year old former 1st round corner. Injured to start 2020 but came back to play last 3 games. 

In 2019 in the 11 games he played he only gave up 390 yards and 1 TD. 

Hes moved to the top of my want list for CB.

Missed on Griffen, so....... Excited Season 4 GIF by The Office

 

Checking on his speed, CB coach wants PURE speed for his players.

Being reported that the Bears are signing Andy Dalton

I'm guessing that closes the door on Mitch Trubisky returning to Chicago.

Yep, it's also another move that limits possible trading spots for a big name QB if one were to become available. If the Texans do trade Watson, it's looking more and more like they will have to take their trade partners QB as part of the deal as their partner will have no other options with their current starter.

I'd say that doesn't help us.

Fitz won't retire until he's started a game for all 32 teams. He wants to be the new Josh McCown.

    • Here is how this draft could get mind-blowingly complicated--Interesting comment about Jags floating the Jeanty idea to lure Chicago into a trade.  I have to think Ben Johnson is going to duplicate in many ways the success he had in Detroit, and I have to think their free agency was following the blueprint Carolina designed last year (one that the Saints designed before them with Brees) and they upgraded all of their interior linemen.  RT in Chicago is set; Johnson loves RT Darnell Wright.  However, at LT, Braxton Jones is coming off a December injury and is considered to be in a competition for the position this year by at least a few fans on the Bears Wire.  His PFF score, however, was solid, posting an 80+ score in pass protection and 70+ score in run blocking.  He is in his prime.  However, in some of their fan mocks, the Bears are taking a LT.  I thought they needed an Edge to play 4-3 strong side across from Sweat, but they signed Odeyingbo to a pretty big contract in March. For the Bears, in my view, it comes down to TE or Running Back. Kmet is their #1 TE and he had 474 yards in that role, which was 25th in the NFL last season for TEs.  Adding Warren would help upgrade the TE spot and give them the ability to add around an estimated 80 yards of production per game.  The Bears have D'Andre Swift at RB, but could use a RB to pair with him for a desired 2 RB attack.  So if I am Da Bears, I stay at 10 and take Warren.  If the Jags want to move on from Etienne, then they will take Jeanty. I think, if I were the Jags (with 10 picks this year) I would take Mason Graham and not try to get an 11th pick.  It is a need position, and it seems to me the only reason they are toying with the idea of moving on from Etienne is because Jeanty is on the board.  That, to me, would be a luxury pick. New GM, I think he does not get cute--they take Graham if they stay at 5.  I might say the Jags' biggest need is Corner.  #5 is too rich for Will Johnson, but remember, they have 10 picks.  could they move up with Cleveland and take Hunter, giving them a CB and WR threat?  To me, with the draft capital they have, that is the move they should make.  Cleveland then could move back to #5.  Remember, Nick Chubb is an aging (29) free agent coming off an injury--so he is gone.  With an additional second rounder, the Browns move back and take Jeanty to give Flacco a running game. The Jags pick is very interesting, but I would not be surprised to see them move up. 
    • Walker is a good player and comes from a great defensive minded school but there a questions about him. He could be a superstar or bust.  You trade down and will get a player with similar concerns and you jump into the middle of the second round where there are some good players.  YOU'RE not getting a 1st next year and a 2nd for 8. These mock simulators give you fair value for the most part. I've tried and most counter offers were rejected.  We trade down get a good first round graded player and jump into the middle of 2nd round and not having to wait for 57.  Plus if a stud falls to the late first or early 2nd round we could package 46 and 57 and get him.
