The #Raiders are expected to sign for former #Rams franchise player, safety Lamarcus Joyner, sources say. A free safety that gives them speed in the secondary.
Also i read on twitter, (can't find the tweet), the jets are looking to move on from Daren Lee after signing barr. I know a lot of you guys likes him coming out of college.
4 time pro bowler, prime of his career. Fits in perfectly with what Williams wants to do. Jets needed a major talent upgrade at linebacker and they got it. They weren't going to sit on all that cap space forever and I'm glad they're investing it in players who have their best years ahead of them
We're seeing a bunch of the teams with major cash uncommitted over the next 2 years (Bills, Colts, Texans, Raiders) reset the market on positions.
In a ~190M cap league 8-9M for a representative 2nd receiver and 10M+ for a good-to-very-good secondary player isn't absurd.
I wish the Giants could play in that range, and had sat out the 17M LT, 23M QB, 12M LB range.
The resetting of the market by those teams is unfortunate because it will hurt them and other teams in the long run. I’m happy for the players getting all this cash, but some of the deals are absurd. Devin Funchess 1 year for $13M. That is absolutely crazy.

Let's see what the deal really amounts to -- the reports say up to 13M.
But I also can see perhaps Gase pushing for it. But allocated so much of your resources to Bell...eh not thrilled with that idea. Supposedly they're still in on CJ Mosley which is good.

RE: Hard to imagine Williams not getting 10-12 per year Â
At minimum. I don't think the Giants go that route
Out of curiosity, why the hell would they not? The line has been a mess for years, they just traded for one of the better guards in football, why not spend the bulk of their salary cap money on solidifying the line once and for all
And the other contracts today... I am really hoping we don’t trade OBJ. The guy is a game changing player and the best at his position and we’ve got him for only a few more mill per year than Funchess? For the next 4 years? Yeah let’s see if we can make this work please.
This is why when you have a top 3 (at position) player you sign him. Because you are securing an X factor for not much more money than the mid-tier guys. If it’s a guy like Collins, you let him walk, because here’s no point breaking the bank for a 1 dimensional player who doesn’t fit your scheme. I don’t buy into the idea that if you have a good young player you have to keep him. If you’re going to spend a bunch of money on a young player he better A) be a huge difference-maker or B) be a perfect fit for your scheme
Jamison Crowder is a very shrewd move. Good slot player who is very good at finding space in zones. Could end up being a nice safe blanket for Darnold.

I agree. The other FA options plug holes. Williams completes a unit and sets up the entire offense for a good year.

If you are going to let good players walk, you had better come up with a good player machine that keeps churning out good players, because that is a recipe for mediocrity. Hasn't it always been a BBI meme that the scheme needs to fit the players so the team is not in a perpetual hunt to find players?
Bell and Tevin Coleman have the same agent so both of those guys taking some time right now.

I like Amos. Good tackler.

[quote] Off the market according to a Bears beat writer. Doesn't know what team though. [/quote
Sounds like the Broncos

This is not true. Most likely the players they sign will have really low cap hits this year that jump up after Eli's contract is off the books.
Just look at Landon Collins new deal. It averages 14 million a year yet his cap hit is only 4 million for this season.
25.5 guaranteed. 11.125 mpy new Center money.
Jets spending their money!!
Jets spending their money!!
5 year 85 million!
51 million Guaranteed
17M per for a middle LB (non pass rusher)!
