NFL Free Agency Thread

[Brady_to_Moss]

I sure hope so. It's been a dull free agency so far

A dull FA and the pats have increased their odds of winning the AFC. We win even when we do nothing

Its hard to steal a Packer Quality historic program.

Who wanted Amendola besides us? And Revis didn't receive any other offer, not even one from the Jets.

The point is that it seems that if we run into even a bit of resistance toward signing a FA we just back off. When multiple teams are interested in someone we NEVER end up with them. I get not wanting to get into a bidding war but FFS.

I realize you are frustrated we all are.. But lets not rewrite history.. Amendola was signed to 5 year 31 million dollar deal.. Bb is not stupid enough to sign a guy to that contract 3 years ago if nobody wanted him.. I remember it being a big deal at the time. Revis signed with us within 24 hours or less of being released.. I think the eagles, raiders, and a bunch of other teams were interested but he wanted to win and really didnt care about the money. He signed for 1 year 12 mil essentially that was far below what he could have gotten. He knew if he won here and played well in our system he would get one more huge contract which he did. It was never a case of no one wanted him.. He wanted to come here. We all know the story.

No we haven't, the Steelers got better.

 

[Love The Drake]

No idea how they got Green for such little money

 

[JMC00]

No we haven't, the Steelers got better.

Their starting LT is a FA and there is a good chance he doesn't return...

 

[Bledsoehasaring]

No we haven't, the Steelers got better.

Obviously you dont watch chargers games.. I have to im in california.. I have never seen a tight end disappear for larger chunks of a game than laderius green. He is not an improvement even over 156 year old heath miller.

156 wow but people want Anquan Boldin

 

[Love The Drake]

all quiet on the Starks and Streater front.

Brady is turning 39 years old and we don't want to get him weapons at WR? Chris hogan really? Ugh

 

[cupofjoe1962]

Chris Hogan could end up being a steal. Who knows what his ceiling is with the crap QBs he had throwing to him in Buffalo? He could end up being a pretty good #2 WR with Brady throwing to him.

His nickname is SevenEleven, because he is always open.

 

[Bledsoehasaring]

Anquan is only a 118 years old.

 

[JMC00]

Gotta love the people that bring up age regarding Boldin... Yet Brady is gonna be 39 this season...

 

[ViperGTS]

Why would you take less money?

NFL life is short. Get paid.

I've been through this multiple times. If you've won a ring. Fine. If you haven't then go somewhere for less money for a chance to win a championship. To play a sport and not make winning a championship your one and only priority is moronic.

What sounds better?

So and So is a former NFL player...look at his house.

So and So is a Super Bowl Champion. Go ask to see his ring in his nice house.

 

[Froob]

Ronnie Hillman is a good back and a free agent but, his fumbles concern me. Wonder if he ends up back in Denver.

Gronk?
Edelman??

Ya let's just forget about those two... Not to mention Lewis and White who turned out to be a solid pass catcher.

They don't need a "weapon" they need a guy that can play 14-15 games in the regular season and 3 games in the playoffs and can catch about 60-65 passes..

And what weapons were there?

Marvin Jones at $8m? Pass
Travis Benjamin at $6.5m. Pass
Sanu at $7m. Pass

They tried to get Rishard Matthews and he decided to go to Tennessee because he didn't want to be the 4th option here.

watch out, the pink hats don't want to hear it..

brady's job is suppose to get easier as he gets older, not harder. bad offensive line/no running game.
if gronk goes down, we're in big ****ing trouble.

 

[Brady_to_Moss]

Can we count on Jules to stay healthy all year? That has only happened what..1 year? And same with gronk..seems to miss a couple games a year. Of course they are fantastic. We need those depth guys who can take over and get us that W when those guys miss their 2-4 games a year or whatever it is
