I think Lloyd is another one year wonder to be cautious about. Had a great year but that was a contract year. That worries me.

Very true id rather splash some cash at a 2/3 year deal for Trey Hendrickson. And bring in a Ellis or Okereke or Chanel to pair with a day 1 or 2 pick

Chubb & Chenal would be my preferred FAs.  Very manageable from a cap standpoint and are instant improvements that create definition on defense.

Hendrickson & Lloyd will be top of their positional market, but I think you get similar value for a tad less in the first two mentioned.  Hendrickson is the only real top-tier talent that doesn't show up on the FA market often.  Would be a fun swing for his final 3ish years.    

Okereke is very interesting to me.  Loved him that final year in Indy and he's still got a good motor.  Had some injuries but nothing hindering his continued performance.

Under the radar would be Justin Strnad.

Okereke had a disc issue in 2024 Missed some time. Will be 30. D captain in NY. 
There are going to be some decent stopgap types out there we have yet to hear about, too. All our needed positions.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      For starters, and again I am not sure what his capacity is in the media or how connected he is to the team, but I posted above Al Wallace says he is "absolutely" getting 50+ a year and he deserves it.  I obviously strongly disagree with it but it feels like like season when the team is slow leaking info to gauge the temp.   Secondly nobody on Gods green earth is going to sign an extension making less than he is making now.  Thats just crazy talk.

      No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".

      As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.
