No Franchise Tags used on top tackles

Now if someone said bengals Anthony Collins is available panthers are interested, I could believe that because the guys looking for around 4-6 mill for a starting job whereas Albert, Veldheer, Monroe are looking for big big money.

 

The good news for us is that with all these top tier OT's hitting FA the mid/low tier guys are not gonna get overprized deals thrown their way.

Good point. Let Miami and Arizona throw money at the big three tackles, we wil snap up Collins cheap and be able to go draft weapons, wel that's my hope anyway.

If Cyrus and Tiny were not having leg problems, then there would be even more OT's in the draft and that could help to hold down the big dollars coming their way, same with WR's.  We should be able to pick up a good WR on the cheap.  Afraid others will out bid us on the OT's.

Drafts deep at OT, hurst,mewhort,henderson,williams,moses. And more names I probably can't remeber, we should pickup a new tackle as late as the fourth round, a mid ranked free agent will be available for us to replace gross, he was at a $4mil cap, collins from bengals would probably be same sort of figure in my opinion.

Agreed, mentioned this in the top NFL free agents thread.  Although, I don't think Collins can be had for less than 7 mill per.

Compared to Albert, Monroe and Veldheer he's probably ranked fourth best out of the tackle group? So he's probably more realistic without breaking the bank, we can talk to him and other free agents now up until Friday evening but can make an official offer until 11th, I'd be happy with anyone of the top four tackles on FA, would take so much pressure of the draft.

    • Yards a game works better over a longer period of time as well. Averages always work out over the long run. The smaller the sample size the easier it is to skew. Also opponents matter more when the size is small. Player 1 lights up 2 bad defenses in 4 starts vs Player 2 playing 10 games vs multiple defenses. It hard to make it apples to apples how it currently sits. Remember during Bryce’s little run last year how annoyed you were when people were pulling Bryce’s starts from week 9 on vs the whole season. 
    • Someone else claimed I said EVERY.  Literally in my post breaking it down it gave Bryce TDs per game.   Shough however has the majority in his favor if just looking at starts. whats subjective about comp %, yards, QB ratings and turnovers?  Now I guess the argument one might make off them could be subjective.  But all I’m saying is statistically as a starter he has been better this year overall.  I don’t think Shough is great.  I think he is impressive based on the situation.  2nd rounder stepping in on a bad team.   And he like so many other QBs…..serves as little red flag going off about what we are doing here offensively. 
    • Player A - 2 starts.  200 yards in each start. He averages 200 yards a game.  Player B - 1 start.  Throws for 400 yards.  Comes in another random game and has 1 pass attempt on a Hail Mary to end the game that goes incomplete.   Now given the random game he appeared for a snap, he averages 200 yards a game. Thats why you isolate starts. If you are talking starter vs someone who began as a backup.  Simple made up numbers/situations to illustrate the point.
