Who's going to be the biggest loser in the RB FA market?

I wouldn't pay any of these players more than a one-year deal.

Loser meaning signing a below market deal. For instance, Spotrac has Saquon market value at $9.9M. If you are him would you sign a 3 year 21M deal?

Teams seem to have a lot of options this year at RB, so it seems that some team is going to make out quite well in being able to sign one of these RBs below their market value.

A lot of them will end up on one year deals. These RBs badly overvalue themselves compared to the market. It's not 2004.

I bet most of the RBs on that FA list would cost HALF of Saquan if we were to give him $10M a year.

The question isn’t what you’d do, it’s what will actually happen. We all know you wouldn’t pay any of them.

better bang for our buck and might well be one who will give the most.....add Jaylen Wright (Tenn U ) and I'll run with them....

do any of these FAs re-sign with their current teams? It would surpise me if more than 4 did.

They can immediately pump up their value 10/15 % IMO.

He stinks with a premier QB and good OL, why would you want him here? I’ll take him for the vet minimum, however.

Ravens would be smart to re-sign Gud Edwards. He's a very good fit for their offense.

He's my top target for a one-year deal...

be the least chased RB. However, if he makes it to FA, Barkley is likely to be the top or 2nd RB. And yes I know it will be a depressed market for most.

Don't be surprised if Dallas goes after Barkley...

His stats really blow me away. I mean, what’s not to like? 200 yards and one touchdown all season? Sign me up! Him and Eric Gray will really get the job done, I’m sure!

I could see the Ravens taking a long look.

Rams?

is the biggest loser.

Market deal needs to be an asset receiving. Barkley was a monster his rookie year. And his receiving was big part of that. Between his injury and that part of his game never being close to that first year he's just not as valuable.

I can live w him making 8-11 million as Linda's they includes incentives. But he's no Adrian Peterson or Lynch. And IMO he should be able to do that stuff. But that just not his mental make up. 9-10 million a year is doable. Can they get the same out of a draft pick. Maybe but the OL is a mess I can live w it. His last agent fucked up. Or he was unrealistic.

If I were a contending team that could benefit from an upgrade at that position, someone like Baltimore, but it would have to have a decent out after year 2.

LOL - fell behind McKinnon on the RB depth chart. Great get for us there.

Reid thought he was getting the next LeSean McCoy.

Rams have money to spend, but Kyren Williams was a great find in the 5th round of the 2022 draft. So, I would think he's the feature back moving forward. Would Barkley want to play a role where he shares touches and might be RB2?
