Phase II FA Priorities

[kerouac9]

IMO:

1) Average IDL
2) Rotational Edge
3) RB
4) CB

That’s not really a bad group of needs, and there are lots of players available.

One just hopes that Keim is realistic/cynical about what he can expect from his rookie class and not hoping to see what happens at rookie minicamp before making moves.

FWIW, I’m prolly gonna be fine going into camp with Golden-Gardeck-Kennard as our Edge rotation, but I’d feel a lot better if we had another guy whom I thought had a 50/50 shot of getting 8+ sacks on the roster.

 

[Goodyear Card]

I would add OG.

 

[juza76]

I would add OG.

Yeah but there are not upgrades out there, only chance trading for someone but its unlikely
Rb cb dt can be easily found

 

[unseenaz]

seems every offseason we bring in several players for the D line, yet here we are year after year still trying to fill holes.

 

[Harry]

Add DT Hicks

You’re not expecting Thomas or Sanders to see the field?

 

[Dan H]

Looks like there are quite a few edge rushers still out there, that should make that a no-brainer.

Not in any meaningful way.

Fair enough.

Any shot at Clowney?

 

[ajcardfan]

We can hope they see the field and play well, but that can't be counted on at this point.

I would put CB at the top of the list.

I think you pretty much nailed it here. Agree 100%

 

[BritCard]

We have like 8 guards on the roster right now.

I agree with the 4 but slightly different order and priority.

1, iDL but not average. I'd sell out on the other 3 to bring in someone. By trade if required.

2, CB. Still expect Alford back but plenty of others in FA.

3. RB. Plenty vet min candidates around.

4. OLB. Think they will consider themselves settled here.

So you'd sell out for Suh or Louteleilei right now?

I think you're probably right that the Cards think they have Edge under control, but yikes you're putting a lot of eggs in a very slow basket.

Akiem Hicks - Eddie Goldman.

 

[Stout]

We have like 8 guards on the roster right now.

Yet none I'm confident in to fill the RG slot.

Louteleilei is cooked. So much so the Bills cut him for Jordan Philips.

I think Suh is cooked too tbh.

We need a space eater so I'd probably go with Eddie Goldman who is only 28. He wouldn't require much to sign.

I'd consider trades too. Post draft there will be guys surplus to requirements.

What we really need is Fotu and Lawrence to step up in year 3.

Judging from the last few seasons, I don't think SUH is 'cooked' and he's a businessman who has never sold himself cheap.

Yes definitely for few snaps a game can still be e beast imo

Looking at their last couple of years it doesn’t appear they would be full time players. When healthy , Hicks is a load.

He was still a 3-down NT last season, I believe.

 

[slanidrac16]

I think a free agent Wr my have become a little bit of a priority.

Brown & Green for 6 games is fine imo

Need a DT
