I would take any of those WR Cousin. 2020 might wind up being like the George Allen years when he based his whole Team on Vets with the Redskins. The "Over-the-Hill Gang"—the aging Redskin veterans who seemed to save their best efforts for the most important games. They were extremely competitive.
Let's face it. TB likes Veterans. Drafting WR has been ugly here. All those mentioned guys come with injury questions. If healthy they could comprise the best Team of WR in the League. Add Edelman who might be the elder here and you have four 30+ guys.
A different road?
TE was a missing element in 2019. It was a complete non-factor. I start the makeover (reload ) with Brady of course but now I am paying through the nose for a pair of 25 year old TE's in Henry and Hooper......whatever it takes say $10mm-$11mm per. The Pats are built for TE play.
We have $49mm now available and the 2020 salary is thought to be $201.2mm. If GM was my Title, I am moving on with some and reloading with others.
The shockers are trading Hightower who is a liability on the pass and player badly the last two games. His CAP costs are over $11mm. Did he play to that value? No....... Cannon who was awful this year at $9mm. Harmon at $5.5mm. Who pays a 3rd string S that kind of money? And if you can get something Chung is $6mm and hurt always. He could not cover this year at all.
Now I am moving on from JMAC, Brooks, LaCosse and King. So your total savings BETWEEN ALL are roughly $41.6mm. Our CAP space would be $90mm.
Is Gostkowski worth his salary at $5.2mm? Folk wasn't that bad. I am trading Sony Michel because you have Damien Harris. Think knees.......... Those two moves bring us $8mm
Now call it $98mm available ...........minus Rookie Draft class.
I am bringing back Thuney, Shelton, Collins, Butler and Karras. J.C. Jackson needs an extension and I'd have to resign Folk. So maybe $32mm roughly there. Perhaps Calhoun if we trade Hightower. Roberts might take a discount to stay.
That leaves $64mm;
My two brand new TE's cost $22mm.
I would look at Safety Juston Simmons (BC Kid) with 97 Tackles at 3 INTS. Maybe $9mm
I would look at RT Bulaga at $7mm
I would trade for John Ross on the Bengals who is cheap and 4.2 speed. He is an ascending player. He was available at one point. He is the player Dorsett was supposed to be. $5.4mm. As a backup, Rishard Higgins who is buried on the Browns.....$2.5mm.
That leaves $21mm +$6.7mm or roughly $28mm for Brady. I am sure that can be tweaked up.
I don't know if that works but it fits. Plus we add some Draft picks. Hightower and Michel are the best "chips".
Thoughts?
