Jeremy Mincey, Jaguars, age 28-Franchised.

Also according to Walter Matt Roth, DE/OLB, Jaguars, age 29 is the 6th UFA on the team. That should make him mine still.

Him and Josh Scobee was ranked the same. and he is a far better prospect in FA than a K that sucks. remember you will have the advantage of signing him back and if you want to get rid of Josh go ahead.

So who is working out how much the franchise tag costs?

It's the aggregate of the top 5 players at their position, right?

I say this because a lot of teams have franchised players - this is going to seriously hinder their ability to play the FA market. Or it should.

yeah, uhh last year was the first year we did the free agency thing so we were just trying things out. some things worked and some things didn't, you really shouldn't have just copied and pasted the rules over

the franchise tag needs to actually cost what it really would, letting people have a free tag makes the majority of the franchised players completely unrealistic

And so does only picking 5 players going into a fa pool,which doesn't make sense.I think you should be more worried about why you have Donnie Avery on the Rams roster.

Perhaps but a team like my Giants only has $7 cap room, maybe I can bid on a peripheral Special Teams player but that's about it, I'm gonna lose all my free agents. If it was to be realistic you'd have to allow for players being released or restructured as it is in the real world to make cap space.

Or go with a suggestion I already made. Give everyone 1 free Franchise Tag and $30 Cap Room. :cool:

thats the other thing, going by straight cap space is dumb because teams like the bucs and cheifs are going to have a TON of cap space but in reality they never use it so it's not like they'd really have that much money to spend. they have an internal budget. meanwhile teams like the giants will max out so in reality they will tend to spend more than what they're cap space indicates

      Yeah it's already a blunder. Do you really think Tep and Co. think so? I hope so, but I'm not as confident in the powers that be's decision making.

      A look at the Panthers remaining schedule after the trade deadline

      By electro's horse · Posted

      Where we stand Panthers are 5-4, a record I'd say is right around where the slightly optimstic Panthers fans would have thought they've been, thought having got there a little differently. They have one impressive but ugly win (Packers) and four other wins against bad teams. The Cowboys are not a good team overall, regardless of the trauma response of a lot of posters on here. I don't really consider that an upset. No one predicted that Drake Maye would ascend to the top tier of NFL QBs. The Cardinals loss looks worse and worse, near heroics not withstanding. I have no idea what to make of the Falcons. As far as the Packers, there's something to be said about making a finesse team play ugly.  Overall, I think the Panthers have a middle of the road defense and a bottom third offense that are both overperforming. Reasonable people can disagree,  So where does that leave us for the back half of the season? How does this project for postseason play? I want to look at the Panthers upcoming schedule, the teams in a snapshot, and see how it projects and wax poetically about where that leaves us.  Teams Left on the Schedule New Orleans Saints (1-8) - two games left. the rebuild the saints have been staring down for the better part of the decade has finally arrived. They were sellers at the deadline. Penning isn't a big loss, but they effectively only have one WR now. Barring any substantial developments, the Panthers should be favored in both their games against the Saints. The second game occurs after the Panthers late season bye. But.....it's the Saints. They will Do It for The City. They're also playing hard for first year coach Kellen Moore. Saints have kept the Panthers out of the playoffs twice in the last week of the season (1999, 2002)  Atlanta Falcons (3-5) - Panthers have a game at Atlanta left on their schedule. The falcons are a complete mystery to me. They have Bijan Robinson who's probably the best player on any field. They handled the bills, a team that boat raced Carolina. By all metrics they have a very good defense (shut down Carolina) and there may have been some technical difficulties in Carolina. All that said, there's a lot of whispers the offensive coordinator Zac Robinson is gone after the season, if he even survives it.  San Francisco 49ers (6-3) - Lots of story lines in this one. 49ers are 3rd in a brutal NFC West. No idea if Purdy will be healthy, but Mac Jones is 5-2 as a starter. The 49ers are the better team from a coaching, player, organizational standpoint. They seem to lose a high profile starter for the season every week. Panthers won't be favored in this game. Might be seeing the Panthers starting qb for 2026 in Mac Jones.  Los Angeles Rams (6-2) - In Carolina. Panthers are traveling from the west coast for this after a Monday night game in SF, so they actually have a short week and no travel advantage. Thanks schedulers. Rams are like the 49ers in that they're a better organization in every aspect. I doubt the Panthers will be favored in this game.  Tampa Bay Buccaneers (6-2) - two games left, including the season finale. Like the 49ers and Rams, the Bucs are a better organization top to bottom that the Panthers, and Jason Licht might be the best GM in the sport. They've suffered an incredible number of injuries that they're fighting through just because of how deep a team they are. It's impossible to say exactly what form of the Bucs you're going to see week to week since they're basically rotting and being resurrected on a moment to moment basis. Panthers end the season in Tampa with the Bucs coming off a bye (game against the Dolphins). Panthers played them close last season in Carolina then got blown out in Tampa Bay 2 weeks later. Story lines...hah... Hah!  Seattle Seahawks (6-2) - Sam Darnold revenge game. Let's just be grateful this game isn't happening right now; the Seahawks look dialed in as hell. It's being played in Carolina, and Seattle historically has underperformed on the east coast, but they'll be playing a thursday night game the week before against the Rams so they'll likely practice all week over here. Also, the Panthers play the Bucs the week before this game, so both teams are going to have fuging gone for it. Seahawks will likely be favored. Where does this leave Carolina Seven teams make the playoffs. Glimpsing at the standings, I don't think a wildcard is in play, barring something dramatic. For the Panthers to make the playoffs I think they have to win the South. Absurd optimism: we sweep the Saints, finish off the Falcons, steal one game against the remainder of the NFC West, and split with the Bucs. That puts the Panthers @ 10-7, a huge accomplishment considering the limitations at QB, and a big springboard into 2026, maybe enough to take the South. Alcoholic Pessimism: split with the Saints, lose in Atlanta, get boat raced by the rest of the NFC West, maybe still split against the Bucs because they'd be resting starters in week 18. Finish @ 7-10. An improvement from the year before.  Split the Diff - about where this team was always going to be. 7-8 wins. A couple of gut wrenching losses. A win they had no business of getting. Go into 2026 one draft and a QB away from doing serious damage.

      Another example of Bryce playing chess that casuals wouldn’t notice or appreciate

      By strato · Posted

      And Jeff George’s teammates hated him. Yeah I mentioned that teammate emotional barometer in a post yesterday I think.  That is something. One hopes they can remember it’s a business and accept change if it comes.  And I hope Morgan and Canales and Tepper all of them don’t overestimate that if he doesn’t pick it up because feeling is not a good enough reason in my book when you talk big money extension.
