What are the chances we make a splashy FA signing?

We have like $35mil before any potential cuts like Poe or Short. I don’t see us getting rid of Short but we could free up another what, $12mil cutting Poe?  I could see us getting one semi splashy or maybe splashy FA. Dunno if that’s how Rhule operates though. I could see us possibly going after Clowney (splashy) or JPP (semi splashy).  There’s a number of mid tier MLBs available too. Schobert, Ogletree, Bradham (I think). I definitely see us signing one of those (or an equivalent).

This.

I can see 2-3 solid mid-tier signings for guys that are still in or a bit before their prime. 

Blake Martinez (26 y/o) ILB from GB could be an interesting one if he doesn't re-sign.

Don't want to over invest in the secondary but Karl Joseph could be super intriguing to help out the unit.

Clowney would be nice but no way we can outbid other teams.

I would like to go after Trent Williams and solidify out LT spot.

Those splashy FA picks really worked out for us last year... How about we take a hard pass?

Just because you dont win the lottery does that mean you stop playing? Sometimes you win some times you lose, just because it didn't work out doesn't mean it cant. Free agents can be busts just like draft picks. Thing is you need both to supplement and have a good football team.

    • This is a great episode I am soo excited for this season 😀
    • Dennis Rodman’s son lands Summer League shot with the Hornets   The Charlotte Hornets are coming off a promising 2025 NBA Draft class and will enter Summer League with no shortage of new faces looking to make an impression. But the most interesting addition didn’t come from the draft board. Instead, it’s DJ Rodman — the 24-year-old son of Hall of Famer and five-time NBA champion Dennis Rodman — who’s bringing some extra attention to the Hornets’ Summer League roster. Rodman played four years at Washington State before making the move to USC for his final season.  He wasn’t exactly lighting it up with the Trojans, putting up about 6 points, four boards, and an assist each game. But he did shoot well — hitting around 41% from the field and draining 36% of his three-pointers.  Standing 6-foot-6, he’s got the size to play on the wing and offers some versatility, which could be just what the Hornets are looking for as they try to fill out their roster. The Hornets’ Summer League squad already has plenty of fresh faces with this year’s draft picks and young guys fighting for a role. But Rodman’s last name alone is enough to turn heads, and now he’ll get his shot to prove he belongs once the games tip off in Vegas. Charlotte’s Summer League team is already drawing interest with recent draft picks and young players hoping to crack the rotation. But Rodman’s last name — and his potential to bring energy and toughness — adds another layer of intrigue. What Rodman lacks in college stats, he makes up for with hustle and competitiveness — traits his dad was known for throughout his Hall of Fame career. If he can bring that same energy and show growth in Summer League, he could carve out a role and surprise some people. Though the odds are against him making the Hornets’ final roster, there’s no denying the spotlight that comes with the Rodman name. The Hornets kick off Summer League next week in Las Vegas.   Dennis Rodman’s son lands Summer League shot with the Hornets
    • At this point, I only care what he does in 2025.
