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.

This is a great analysis, Shaq. Many thanks.

Maybe John Johnson III would be a good fit at safety.

JJ III is a prize free agent.  Him and Chinn would be one of the best young safety pair in the NFL.

If ur inferring about my post I’d love to hear ur opinion 

[KDawg004]

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.

It seems like there are a number of solid cornerbacks available plus a lot of talented CBs entering the draft. hope we don't drop the ball on getting some help at corner this offseason.

4I would like for us to really look for TE, CB, and LB in FA.
