To be fair I was talking about, specifically, free agents. We are missing picks to offer up more picks for a great WR. So we have to go the FA route. And most top end WRs DONT hit the free agent market. 

He then asked you after your comment who hit the free agent market and you listed OBJ who is perpetually injured, Hopkins who is 22nd in receiving yards as of now and Meyer who is 33 in receiving yards. Higgins is younger and more productive than both of the last few seasons. He’s going to get a nice contract. 

And when they do they choose to not come here. You listed a bunch of guys that for the most part never hit the open market to allow for a bid war. Again, there are like 10 teams with more cap space than us that could use him and every single one of those teams looks more complete than us and has a better record than us and has more first round draft picks than us this upcoming draft. 
 

The appeal here would have to be a massive overpay at the risk that his head coach is going to get fired, his OC is going to get fired, and the guy throwing him the ball might be a bust. You’d have to offer a contract that takes care of him for longer than need be, for more money than need be to lure him from those other teams. 
 

And we still have to sign Burns and extend Brown. Eating into the cap. 

Going thru this article.. 

1. The list was posted by Josh Norris 

https://x.com/joshnorris/status/1727023084333629514?s=46&t=-UJBTSFvMTzAfVccG8qD_Q

He is pretty tapped in so if he thinks these players could reach FA..

So I put out a opinion thread based off a football analyst thoughts..

2. It not like any of these guys are Hill, Adams level.. So if we had to trade for them.. A 2nd at the most maybe all we need.. And Higgins or Evans is a better more proven option then anybody we can draft in the 2nd round this year..

3. He asked a question and I answered it..

When OBJ and Landry  signed with the Browns to help Baker they were both top 25 Wr’s and that was 2019 (4 years ago)…

Hopkins here now would be a our number 1 right now.. He has played with how many Bad Qb’s this year and you want to make a number statement???  Meyers right now would be a godsend over the crap we have now.. 
 

4. At no point in this thread did I say anything else but we will have to overpay for talent.. So you’re not solving any mysteries.. The point is that might be the only option.. 

No 1st round pick so no 1st round talented Wr’s. Don’t trust this staff in finding WR talent in the draft anyway. Soooooooooooo what exactly is the plan other then to spend in FA and get your Young QB help???

Landry and obj didn’t sign with the browns they were traded.  You clearly don’t understand what you are talking about here.

You clearly have a axed to grind because of some precived (by you) internet stranger beef.. You want to nit pick a opinion thread by fixating on semantics.. When the thread was about players that “could ”be available.. No matter if it’s a trade or a signing.. The whole point is these players could be available..  I didn’t make the list or have the power to make these players available.. Josh Norris said they could and I posted a question (with the caveat of they could be available) so you nit picking based on “Signing them in FA” doesn’t matter.. That wasn’t a set in stone precedent to get one of these players.. At some point you should recognize you’re being petty for no reason at all..

And derailing conversation based on some internet big cookie award and strangers adulation you think is important… You are literally following my post activities to quote and reply because I disagreed with one of your many dumb opinions..  Do you have me on notifications so every time I post you can run and quote me?? I go weeks without posting here and every time I do here you come.. It stop being a coincidence 3 months ago..

The thread title created by you clearly says Offseason FA! and then you proceed to go on some random tangent about players that are not indeed free agents.  But you be you buddy.  You clearly dont know what a nfl free agent is and its not even close to semantics.  Its simple understanding of what a true free agent is.

So the fug what!! 
“OmG the thread title says this so i have to stick to the letter of the law MB forum rule of not using actual cognitive thinking and form a opinion..” 

And Offseason is in the title as well .. Since we’re playing this dumbass game .. Can you make trades in the offseason as well?? 
 

But I’m sorry my bad.. I didn’t know thread title dictated all perimeter in threads now.. lol

Yes but I think LG is good if we move Ickey there but then we need a LT.

That could potentially be Christensen but my guess is they'd look elsewhere first.

One big advantage for him is he actually does do well at zone blocking.

I think the top priority has to be fixing the o-line. Start in the trenches and work your way outward. If we can't afford to fix the o-line and bring in a #1 WR, then you fix the o-line first. If you bring in a #WR it won't matter due to the amount of pressure and sacks Young is enduring. 

2024 address the trenches. Extra money or picks? Go get a better WR than D.J Chark.

He does this to everyone he doesn't like.

 

Some people need real life help. I wouldn't take this message board seriously. Some people just come here to vent off on others.

      Bucky Brooks eats humble pie. You want a couple of slices?

      No you dont.  He had all those records for years before his final season. Whether career or season he had them all years before his final season in which he played 6 games.

      DJ Moore. The quitting WR

      By csx · Posted

      Williams covered for Moore by saying they were on the wrong page about Moores specific route. Williams could have easily covered for him by saying he messed up. Suggesting only 1 route was ever intended to be a viable target is absurd.

      Edge Rushers

      By MHS831 · Posted

      I am going to agree with Linville this time--I think we need to get a veteran edge (We have Jones II, Scourton, and Princely--2 developmental guys and a decent veteran).  We don't really think of Jones because he had a hamstring injury weeks 3 and 4 and a back that required surgery Week 6-17.  He still managed 10 pressures, and he will be 28.  Princely Umanmielen only played in approximately 18-20% of the snaps and he struggled at times.  Basically, he was a situational pass rusher.  He got 1.5 sacks and 10 pressures.  He should improve, but for now, he is what he is.  Scourton gives us hope.  For a rookie (and thanks to Jones II's injuries, he was given more PT), he had 8 sacks--and held the edge.  He played at a first-round draft pick level.  He has the potential to become "that guy" in 2026. We lose Wonnum, who played nearly 700 snaps and amassed 3 whole sacks.  For a person raised a Gamecock, I would not be upset if we purged our roster of all South Carolina alumni.   However, I see it this way:  Wonnum was decent holding the edge, something Patrick Jones II and Scourton have demonstrated at a high level.  He is a liability, if you ask me.    Jones had 7 sacks one season in Minnesota and is known for his inside rushing ability--not what you would call a speed rusher.  I think Princely was a bit disappointing, but he was a bit raw.  Out of college, they described him as being a bit predictable.  I see no reason he will not improve in 2026 and become a situational pass rusher.   Basically, with Scourton and Princely expected to continue to develop and Jones II returning from injury, I think we need another veteran (if we can get a good one) to give us balance and depth.  A third developmental player is not ideal.   Draft:  OT, LB, WR, OL depth, S. Free Agency:  Edge, possibly a WR;  re-sign Mays, Cuhran, BC (??), and Nijman.  Let walk:  Wonnum, Scott, Dowdle.  I see about $20m per year after signing the OL depth.  Spend it on a veteran edge.   Players like Reddick (Tampa), Bosa (Buffalo), Khalil Mack (LAC) could be available on a one or two year deal in the $15m range.  We could splurge here, but I think a veteran situational pass rusher (depending on Jones II's back) is all we need while our 2 young guns develop.
