FA Thread


t96

Recommended Posts

Well seems like it’ll be going down today, so we should have a thread for the moves around the league... “Legal tampering” period begins today at noon. FA doesn’t technically open until Wednesday but things become unofficially done today.
 

Some moves so far:

Falcons cut Trufant and Freeman.

Vikings extended Cousins 2 years.

Brady reportedly down to Bucs and Pats.

According to Mike Garafolo, the #Falcons are releasing OT Ty Sambrailo ahead of the new league year as well. #Atlanta continues to slash salary, as the team also plans to release CB Desmond Trufant and RB Devonta Freeman as it works to clear cap space.

In 2019, Trufant appeared in nine games for the Falcons and recorded 18 tackles, four interceptions and seven passes defended.

Pats just placed OL franchise tag (average of top LT salaries essentially) on Joe Thuney, a guard. Just signed their other OG to a big contract last year I think too...

That would be like us having placed the tag on Norwell after already looking up Trai.

Hard to believe but unless they’re trading him (unlikely for a team to trade for that amount of money in a guard) this essentially guarantees Brady leaves (likely to Bucs?) as they are over the cap right now...

Apparently he’s now the highest paid TE? Browns know they got a guy who fits their wide zone offense.

It’s nuts. He’s really not all that great. He’s a solid but unspectacular receiving TE who offers little to nothing as a blocker. He put up some bulk numbers on us over the years but I was never even slightly worried about him against us. And the browns already have a ton invested in offensive skill players. Just strange.

Whew! I would much rather be obsessing about which backup guard go signed to the lions than obsessing about new covid19 cases in my county. 
 

No sarcasm at all. This is a breath of fresh air in a crazy, sport free world.

Yeah I really think people need some degree of sports news or even games played (without fans but televised) to lift spirits a bit.

    • They can get film of all the games? Every team? Wow! Who knew… Our games with them are big examples of why they are in  the CB market so hard.   It is the study they do getting ready for the games.  Preparing to play against is a little different than just analyzing film in scout mode. Deeper dive. Then you are analyzing post game too.  This goes to why players often change teams but stay in the division. The opponents know each other on a higher level.  Plus if you lost to us, you used to get fired. Now you have to trade your first round pick. Moving up on the world. 
    • I honestly can’t believe this team’s turnaround this season. It’s surreal. Figured healthy we’d be fringe playoffs and with another lottery pick could finally turn the corner, but we don’t even need that. This group is ready. We haven’t played remotely well the last 5 games and yet still blew out 5 bad teams by 16+ each game like it was casual practice. We had a few solid teams with Kemba and Big Al but this is easily our best group since the original Hornets moved to NO. Man, what a shift in culture this new ownership group and front office has brought. So damn happy to see it after years of suffering and consistently meaningless games in this stretch of previous seasons.   Only 2.5 games out of the 6 seed, although Miami, Atlanta and Orlando have been playing well too. Gonna be a fun final stretch, hopefully we can get a top 8 seed at the very least. Celtics tomorrow will be a good test. Would be huge to keep the road winning streak up against a very hot top team on the 2nd half of a back to back. We’ve played Boston pretty well the last few years with much of this same group despite sucking so I do feel pretty good about it. Kon is due for a huge game coming off a few cold shooting games (although despite the poor shooting he’s been contributing well with defense, assists and rebounds).
    • It amazes me how underrated Horn has become after he finally was able to stay on the field. Sure last year wasn’t perfect but he was still a huge reason for our rebound defensively and I’d say he’s easily a top 10 corner. You don’t want to see Mike Jackson as our top corner. Any player is available for the right price but I’d be extremely hesitant to move Horn even for a big haul from LA.
