NFL Free Agency Update Thread

Every time I read something about the Eagles, I now hear circus music playing in the back of my head. 

 

You know, the music they play when 25 clowns climb out of a car the size of a Yugo?.......yeah that music. 

 

I detect unhappiness in your tone, JR :(

 

You're not on board with the overhaul?

Cowboys Showing Interest In DE/OLB Derrick Morgan, Who's Visiting With Falcons

and the Bucs. Seems official that we won't have the money to sign him. I actually don't think we have much left based on my very definitive, and accurate calculations...using my toes.

When Cam is heading on to another team and half the fan base leaves as well because of what the organization did with giving him no weapons that are proven in the NFL at WR we will be left in disarray.

You do not ignore holes that big on your roster unless it is OTs and you draft those. A number two receiver should be a proven player if your other player at 1 is a young player.

You say Can going to another team like its a bad thing. He's a middle of the road QB right now. We will recover if he leaves. No big deal.

The St. Louis Post Dispatch reports the Rams are thinking they "may get free agent RT Joe Barksdale on the rebound."
Barksdale is our top free-agent tackle left, but beat writer Jim Thomas believes Barksdale could be "overestimating his market value." We're not sure how Jermey Parnell can get a $32 million deal, yet Barksdale has been greeted with crickets. He's arguably been the Rams' best lineman the past two years. Mar 11 - 9:31 AM

He's not buying low though. He traded a young, healthy QB who has put up good numbers in his system plus valuable picks for an injury plagued QB. He traded one of the most dynamic playmakers in the NFL in McCoy for a MLB coming off of a torn ACL. That's not buying low.

Depends on how you look at it. McCoy is big money. They turned him into kiko and maxwell. Kiko could be as good for them as Luke is to us. And they desperately needed help on the back end D. I'd value MLB and CB over RB personally.

Foles verses a healthy Bradford is no contest. While its a huge gamble because of the injury history but a QB with prospects like Bradford aren't just available. Foles was solid for them but how much of that was Kelly? I'll give Kelly the benefit of the doubt when it comes to who he wants playing QB.

I'm not saying he's buying low to save, but if a player like Alonzo was healthy and for some reason a UFA he'd command a top salary. Kelly is gambling, but I think these moves could work out for them.

Just don't know what to make of it all and the starting offensive group seriously does look like a bad fantasy football lineup. Whatever he is doing is not making much sense to me at the moment but check back after the dust settles.

    • After watching Dan for 3 yrs now, I think I understand his plan. It’s a simple plan that should work for the long run.     I saw some of this last yr. Dan wants a vet and a young player at each position. I really think we go OT if one they like there. Moton is aging, Icky will not be back until 27, if ever. We need to get ahead of the tackle problem 
    • You are just stressing too much about these particular positions. You want to upgrade from Bryce and I understand that but you aren’t going to really get that without getting into a bidding war for a QB2 potential QB1 like Willis. You could possibly trade for Mills or the backup for Chicago but they are still gambles and their teams will won’t decent picks.  Again the Eagles thought KP was a capable enough backup to trade for him once their backup was hurt and won a Super Bowl with him as QB2. The point is most teams aren’t rolling with some stud QB2/3 that is going to push even a bottom tier starter. They are better off the building their roster in other areas. The Rams are rolling with Bennett right now as QB2 for example.  The goal is winning absolutely. We overachieved last year even with stumbling into the playoffs. Another year and this staff needs to take the next step in building a team. Will Grier has little to no impact on that….
    • Three straight first round WRs is straight up Matt Millen poo. Considering the draft capital we have tied up on Bryce after that trade we would basically have spent damn near all of our draft capital in recent years on QB and WR just to put one of the most anemic passing offenses in the league on the field. Clown show poo.
