NFL Free Agency Thread

@Rapsheet
The #Lions are getting WR Marvin Jones, source said, for what is expected to be about $8M per year (as @diannaESPN said).

Pretty sure Miguel projected 6M/yr. Market inflation continues.

Many of us figured Jones would get $7-8m a year in this market, and most agreed it would be overpriced. Unfortunately, that's kind of been the theme of this free agency period.

@dougkyed
With Benjamin, Jones reportedly off the board, Matthews, Boldin, Randle, Kearse, Sanu, LaFell, Wallace, J Jones are the top available FA WRs

A bunch of WRs Talib will take out of the game in single coverage. Sigh. Comeon Trade!

Powell is serviceable. Hes an upgrade over White and insurance if Lewis becomes human.

I think Lewis definitely needs insurance, i can't see him making it through a whole season.

 

[RobertWeathers]

It looked like he had a fair bit of interest, I can see it being north of $7m per and probably land at $8m...which is overpaying.

Yep, 8 per:

Sheer madness.

Bob Quinn has fallen into the trap overpaying for ok talent.

 

[Froob]

Anyone think Brandon LaFell could be a good reclamation project?

 

[RobertWeathers]

Malcolm is loving life right now.

 

[Ross12]

Oh goodness. Over $15m a year for Sean Smith?

EDIT: As reported below... fake account. Why do these assholes do this?

 

[sb1]

Don't know if this was reported already.

 

[Sciz]

That's a fake account

Vernon out in MIA.

 

[primetime]

Brian Quinn and Victor Cruz are two potential reclamation projects, but you'd need to sign someone like Boldin as well because relying on lottery tickets is a bad move.

 

[sb1]

That's a fake account

RapShect... good catch

 

[Brady_to_Moss]

Based on this FA..Vernon will get 54 per year

Heard rumor we have interest in Rishard Matthews. Call me in on that one. I think he could be a huge bargain.

I don't know how a member of the Impractical Jokers is going to help the team... Maybe he can distract the defensive end by showing him his cat tattoo.

Tim Hasselbeck is kind of a dink but I love Matt.

Saw Matt play @ BC back in the day a couple times vs VT.
