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.

    • Well. Unfortunately the Cam Newton era put a spotlight on some very ugly folks. We'll leave it at that. Athlete salaries especially for certain skill positions have gotten absurd to say the least and we live in heightened times of awareness as a society so general criticism will always be present. For me it boils down to what I'm seeing and hearing with my own eyes and ears. If the QB is pulling his weight and even doing some of the heavy lifting for those around him then he will receive the benefit of the doubt so long as he is holding up his end of the bargain. And all QB's even the really good ones are going to have some lesser games compared to others. But where we are now is basically just being thrilled when our guy can do the most basic things on a football field. And there are people who can't understand why dialogue is not getting any better. If it were not so absurd it would be quite amusing.
    • It’s been a couple seasons so I don’t remember the exact quote, but I’m pretty sure I remember him admitting to mailing it in at the end of the season.
    • I feel like at three years here, he could take the mentor training wheels off.    Aside from that I wonder about whatever advice he needs from Dom concerns… he should know his XOs cold.   I would think a mentor could help more with things like how to handle problems with his staff, with his boss, issues with players, more stuff like that than XO stuff.
