I put 3, but not because I think they are going to go on a huge shopping spree, I think $10m isn't that much anymore. Dallas' fricken kicker is looking for $10m.
 
I put one but hoping for more. If the one is Tyreek Hill, I’m going Ray Lewis on the GM.
 
Sure, it's complete. Anyone who wants to vote RLKAG or something else can vote by not voting, as many, many do in political elections.

I haven't added that option since I joined over 20 years ago. Unless Ian makes it a requirement, I'm not starting now.

BURN HIM!!!
 
I would note that NO ONE thinks that we will sign more than 3 players at $10M AAV or more.
 
You have a small sample size because the poll is incomplete.
But, the result of those who chose to participate was 100%.

The same is the case when the additional choice is there. I always look at those who choose to make a choice.

Selection bias. Serious cognitive flaw.
 
I went with more than 5. I think they’ll sign 2 DE, a WR, a TE, a FS and a LG all starting level players. Basically every starter gets $10M even if it’s inflated by a phony last year with a high non guaranteed salary.
 
Vrabel wants to get younger and cheaper, and is looking at edges in the draft. Reading the tea leaves…

I see Diggs as the most sure fire cut. I will bang the Wan’Dale Robinson drum with all my might until he resigns with NYG.

OL has to be THE free agent priority if we’re looking edge early in the draft.

I don’t think the team plans on starting Landry and a rookie at edge, so I presume resigning Chaisson is a priority.

That makes 3, if re-signings count. Here, Robinson (or some other starting caliber WR) replaces Diggs on the cap sheet, and the OL signing takes Bradbury’s place on the roster.

I also see the team exploring a TE upgrade, but not spending big.
You must have a crystal ball ….nice call on Diggs. I know Vrabel liked him a lot….initially thought he would be back here….but in reality doesn’t fit our team that great

Great comparison to political elections. Get the stick out of your ass, this is all intended to be fun and easy going

Hey *******, please explain to me how you being rude and abusive contributes to making this fun and easy going?
 
As is usually the case, the contemplation and conversation sparked by the poll is more useful than the poll itself.
The HC says he is going to make the team younger, cheaper, and better. Most of the big ticket buys are about better, but not younger or cheaper. So any big purchases like that will detract from two of his three goals. That makes me more skeptical for this year than last. I'd vote 0 or 1.

I think he was talking about developing young players to replace more costly vets, not abstaining from free agency altogether.
