NFL GAME DAY DISCUSSION Official 2023 Free Agency Thread


Time for Bottom Feeder Bill to scrape the bottom of the barrel?

48 hours into the open market window that doesn't legally open till 4PM?



Candidates for a one-year deal include tackle Orlando Brown, defensive back C.J. Gardner-Johnson, tight end Mike Gesicki, edge rusher Yannick Ngakoue, and receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster — who has done one-year deals for two straight years.

Originally on our list was quarterback Baker Mayfield, who has since done a one-year deal in Tampa.

The one-year deal becomes a path for the player to build his stock and try it again next year. But if the problem is that the player misplayed his market for a long-term deal, it will be important the next time around to be more realistic.
 
He's not worth a 1st.



Indeed, if no one has pony'd up a first by now, the Donks misjudged the market.

The chance to have five years of control on a young talent at a good price is better than taking on the good but not great WRs DEN has.
 
Cant beleive JuJu is only 26 haha
 
I’d be fine with OBJ (for the right price), Juju or Chark

Chark feels like Agholor 2.0 to me: Deep threat who's had one good year of production who you'd be signing on pure potential. If he came in significantly less than Agholor did, fine... but WR's in free agency right now are hot commodities. Someone is going to pay him more than he's worth and I'd rather it not be the Pats.
 
Looking through what free agent WRs are left, and who would be considered a "top" free agent....

- Odell Beckham Jr
- Juju Smith-Schuster
- DJ Chark
- Chosen Anderson
- N'Keal Harry
Mecole Hardman.

I’d be okay with 1 year prove-it type deal
