NFC South Unrestricted Free Agents


Jeremy Igo

Recommended Posts

With the next significant NFL date being the start of Free Agency on March 10, I thought I would take a look at the NFC South and see what teams are dealing with.

 

Carolina has the fewest amount of Unrestricted Free Agents in the NFC South at 11. The Atlanta Falcons have the most at a whopping 19. I am not sure if this is a good thing or a bad thing for their new coaching staff. It may help a great deal in molding the team they want.

 

Here are the Unrestricted Free Agents by team...

I can't wait to see the Saints attempt to field a team next year...20 something million already over the cap, and some key guys they won't be able to re-sign/have to cut others? Yes, yes, and more yes.

 

The Falcons have some "big" names on that list as well (for them anyway), with a roster already bare when it comes to talent outside of their top 3-4 guys. Would love to see Matt Bryant switch teams.

 

And the Bucs have a couple decent names as well on the defensive side, so will be interesting to see what they do in bringing guys back or letting them leave town. 

 

As for the Panthers...yeah we're losing nobody of big worth from last season. Either Dwan or Cole will come back I assume, not both.  Dickson and Webb would also be nice additions again if cheap. I'd also still like to see Bell brought back in a backup role on the cheap (only a backup role), but for some reason I think he's wanting to get paid decent money to suck...somewhere else I hope.

    • I hope Bryce balls out. Wouldn't bet the farm on it though. Morgan has to be practical though. He was placed into a situation where he was compelled to give Bryce a long look. There really haven't been any more practical options due to who has been available at the position. The Panthers had already put their chips in with Bryce, so putting more chips in by borrowing against the future and stacking on that by borrowing against the future without really having the requisite draft capital was a nonstarter. We could either dump Bryce and go dumpster diving for known and unknown JAGs at the position, or take out chances and let it play out with Bryce and hope for acceptable returns. Due to what looks like some good moves in the draft and free agency, it appears like we're finally getting into a position where we can take a swing again if need be without destroying the core of the team. I understand that you'll believe it when you see it, but Dan is gonna move on if Bryce can't cut it. There are too many professionals lives and careers tied to Bryce to simply accept the status quo. 
    • Football is the ultimate team sport. No sport is more dependent on others for your success - including coaching. I don't know if Bryce is the guy, but I do know this has been a very bad team all around since he got here. One of the worst o-lines and coaching staffs I've ever seen his rookie year. One of the worst defenses and receiving groups (including TEs) I've ever seen his 2nd season - with a rookie HC and OC. An improving WR group his 3rd season mostly due to a rookie. The only other WR of note didn't really play well until after the 10th game of the season due to injury. Still no receiving TE to speak of. And lost games because of the worst pass rush in the NFL. And the only speed he's ever had on the field was DJ Chark. A washed up DJ Chark that played here one year and has had 31 yards receiving since leaving.  Carolina had no business moving up for a QB in 2023. They weren't ready. Especially if it meant trading your only good WR to do it. Now finally there's potential on defense. Potential on o-line. Potential at WR, including some actual speed in a game where speed kills. If BY falls on his face this season, then he has to own it. Situation may not be perfect, but it's at least NFL average across the board. I won't beat him up for being bad in bad situations on a bad team. But a 4th year QB has to be able to control the offense and make players/coaches right. The team looks good enough on paper to show what he can do now.   
    • Mr. 0-2 every year to start the season in his career. Last year was the first year he ever played a week 3 game.
