Who should we target in free agency this offseason? What do y'all think about players like

Keanu Neal

Jesse James

Janoris Jenkins

Kyle Rudolph

Jesse James ain’t really an upgrade probably at best a solid #2 TE. So for cheap I wouldn’t mind this move. 

Don’t see the point of Janoris hes 32 and were not exactly ring chasing next year. For cheap id like the move but the timeline doesn’t really work here. 

Kyle Rudolph I’d like a lot, he’s on the older side at 31 but his game has never really relied on athleticism. Would be a average #1 TE for a couple more years, plus since he was released we don’t lose any sort of comp pick through signing him. He also would be a nice calming safety blanket for whatever young qb we end up giving the reins to in a year or two. 
 

Keanu Neal makes sense from an age standpoint but his injuries are concerning, and I doubt he’s taking any sort of short term deal. Also, he would most likely be deph considering we’re playing Chinn at safety more this year and with Neal being a textbook SS, playing Chinn at FS would be an utter waste of his talents.

Kevin Zeitler, Trai Turner, Andrew Norwell, Riley Reiff, John Brown, Jurrell Casey, Lamarcus Joyner (at FS not NCB), Malcolm Butler, AJ Bouye, Carlos Dunlap, Gerald Everett.

Basically players who have been cut (with the exception of Everett) who won’t cost us comp picks and probably won’t warrant big contracts. I’m sure I’m still leaving a few out.

The only high paying player we will lose in free agency is Curtis Samuel so there is no reason to limit yourself to cut players only. It made sense last year when we had several high priced free agents sign. Not so much this when there are holes to fill and less players leaving.

    • I know it's only been training camp and one preseason game, but I think T-Mac has already shown his floor to be exactly what I said about him in the pre-draft process. That his floor if he never improves his game, is as one of the best #2 WRs in the NFL, if not even still a low end #1 (i.e. a 25th-ish best WR in the league). I think it's safe to say he's already established himself as our #1, and there are only a small handful of teams in the league where I don't think he'd be their starting #2 WR in Week 1. Bengals (Higgins), Dolphins (Waddle), Eagles (Smith), Bucs (Godwin if healthy), Rams (Adams) are really the only teams where I think he'd be the #3 as a rookie in Week 1.  A few others like the Lions (Williams), Bears (Odunze), Seahawks (Kupp), Commanders (Deebo), where he'd be the 2b to start the season, just because they're vets and/or already have a year or two of experience with their team/QB. And even having said that, I think by year 2, he's better than every one of those players (And no, I'm not saying he's already going to be better than a prime version of Adams, just whatever he'll be at 33 next year), and same goes for Kupp, but that's more because it seems like his body might be quitting on him in a way that hasn't happened to Adams (yet).
    • Well to be fair, Horn not practicing right now to let his stitches heal up from a car accident isn't something that should be concerning.  Sure, you don't want him missing practice leading into the season, but it's one that once healed, won't have lingering affects or fear of re-injuring it, it was just bad luck.
    • Quality backups are absolutely important. This franchise has been plagued with depth problems. That said, there is a little bit of dismay that Mays can't beat out a 1-legged man, and all the talk going into the off-season was how BC would certainly be gone since he had position versatility.  In the end, it doesn't matter too awfully much, as I would be shocked to no end if Corbett makes it through the season. We know what we have in reserve, and that should surely be better than trying to sign random fat guys mid season to try and take over.
