NFL Free Agency Update Thread


Mr. Scot

Recommended Posts

Buccaneers are finalizing an agreement with free agent DT Henry Melton.
 
Melton receives a one-year deal that can be worth up to $5 million.
 
contract includes a base salary of $3.75 million with another $1.25 million available in incentives.
The Cowboys declined to pick up Melton’s three-year option last month, which came as no surprise, as it would have guaranteed him $9 million for the 2015 season.
 
Last year, he was working his way back from a serious knee injury, which was likely the reason for his limited production in 2014.
 
Melton, 28, appeared in all 16 games for the Cowboys this season and recorded 15 tackles, five sacks and two fumble recoveries. Pro Football Focus has him rated as the No. 15 defensive tackle in the league out of 81 qualifying players.

Buccaneers Hosting CB Sterling Moore For A Visit
 
New Buccaneers DT Henry Melton apparently mentioned during  his introductory press conference that free agent CB Sterling Moore will be visiting the Buccaneers, 
 
Moore, 25, originally signed on with the Raiders as an undrafted free agent back in 2011. He played for the Patriots before joining the Cowboys in 2012.
 
The Cowboys, somewhat surprisingly, didn’t use a restricted tender on Moore, making him an unrestricted free agent.
 
In 2014, Moore appeared in all 16 games for the Cowboys and recorded 46 tackles, a forced fumble, two recoveries and 13 pass defenses for the Cowboys’ defense. Pro Football Focus has him rated as the No. 22 cornerback out of 108 qualifying players with a solid coverage rating.

That is strange. His number look pretty good. Wouldn't mind if the Panthers gave him a look.

    • I'm really not stressing about upgrading from Bryce. I'm frustrated with our inability (or refusal) to recognize overall bad QB performance and failure to seriously address the issue. QB is the most impactful position on the field, and we're not only settling for what we've been given to this point, but we've rewarded it with a fully guaranteed 5th year extension for a player that's never played 2 NFL franchise QB quality games back to back in 3 seasons. I can't understand how that's ok from a coach's or GM's viewpoint. Successful franchises don't do things like this. It just doesn't make sense.  We do not have a top half of the league QB right now. Since we don't have that player, we should be looking for him. Pickett isn't it. Grier isn't it. Bryce hasn't proven he is yet. Until you have that sure fire franchise QB, you keep looking. You're not consistently making the playoffs, a deep run, or a SB appearance without one.  What's the worst that could happen? We end up with 2 potential number 1 QBs? How horrible. 
    • Easy to understand Pickett, if this is anywhere close to on point. Canales wants to get as close to Bryce as he can- get the pace and timing in the throws as close a he can to Bryce. So the other players don’t have to adjust so much, to a new guy.       If Cam was the 1, he would look for a rocket arm.  But Bryce is the 1. Look for limited in the same way.  Low velocity, plenty of air under it, feels just like home when Picket comes in. And you have the guys on the second team not having such a radical adjustment (if they have to play) like with Dalton to Bryce.    Enter Grier. I guess we will collect those types.   
    • Best part is if we draft him, we can also use him as our fourth and one QB sneaker
