The one player we absolutely cannot lose this offseason.....

Taylor Moton ladies and gentleman. Every starter on our line is slated to be a free agent this offseason with the exception of center (which needs to be cut) Moton is young and someone we need to build around. Even if we are forced to use the franchise tag on him he cannot be lost to another team. Fug Hurney for not signing him sooner which will definitely cost us millions more in the long run. Long live the Moton Spike TD celebration!

There are zero reasons why Moton was not extended last off season.

Instead of extending Moton and James a year before they would have hit free agency, we instead spent that money on Shaq, Teddy, Anderson, and KK.

Dumb team.

I know Bradberry was not interested in re signing with us but damn do I wish we still had him. He’s performing as a top CB this season and he would have been great with our young and upcoming defense

Cap space change this season is going to play a big role in FA signings. I thought we should have extended him 2 years ago when he was getting chances to play but it was blatantly obvious he had talent. 

No matter the cap I don’t see a way that we can afford to let him walk unless we plan on pushing our rebuild back another year

I dont either really but it will all depend on how much the cap drops. We may not be able to offer him what some of the other teams with a lot of cap room can. On the flip side, if we can sign him cheaper once the cap drops that would be great, but I dont see it happening.

I wouldn’t blink an eye if we placed the franchise tag on him. Other than CMC he is the most impactful player on our roster that is on a non rookie contract

    • Possible, he is physical and a forchecker but not a needle mover, but i wouldnt mind it, although I think we have enough 4th line grinders right now between Carrier Robinson and Janakowski  down there, i actually really love our 4th line.            We need scoring in the top 6, and a RHD at this point its definitely coming via trade.            Rasmus Andersson I hear may be on the market, it feels like every couple of seasons someone links us to Erik Karlsson.       As far as centers go,  Marco Rossi (even though we have a ton of smurf already)     Jordan Kyrou is an intriguing option if he is available.           At this point i think Rod should just move Jarvis to his natural center position to give us a 1B center...   yes hes also a smurf but he plays way bigger than he is stylistically.

    • The problem with these summary stats and rankings is that they flatten out progression and assume an even performance throughout the year. His first 3 or 4 games of the season don't really tell you anything about his current level of capacity but more about where he started and what his floor was last year. Given his last several games were against playoff teams, that gives you an idea of his current ability coming into the season. But it will serve more as a floor than a ceiling given the upgrade in talent on offense. And a better defense should give us more stops which results in shorter fields and more opportunities. And going into his third year there is no reason to suspect he will regress. His success wasn't  based on being superhuman but being smart and taking what was the defense was giving him. Distributing to the other guys not trying to do it on his own. He was great at the end when pressured and consistently moved the ball. That makes him a great game manager which is what we need. Something that is easier to do and relies on everyone else rather than having to be a top physical specimen or do it on his own. No one can predict the future but to say we haven't improved much is crazy given just having the Browns anchoring the defensive line will shut down the run and make sure QBs won't be stepping up in the pocket.  Assuming Evero got the message to can the prevent defense and bend until you break philosophy.
