Offseason player acquisition thread

[Real fan 02]

Mike knows him, so we'll know what he thinks pretty soon.

I hope Vrabel is on the phone with him right this minute.. also DT Allen was also released from commanders.

 

[JohnJH]

He's regressed for sure, but probably fairly cheap now.

Yes. Which I suspect is why he's cheap.

 

[JohnJH]

Yeah.. and unfortunately I remember Terrance Wheatley and joeunan Williams

Oh man! You just brought back some long buried trauma there! Don't forget Dowling and Dawson too!

 

[TommyD4207]

The Pats shouldn't be spending as much for CB as other positions. The Pats need a #2 CB and depth, not a shut down #1. The need there is below LT, WR, and edge rusher at least.

Sure. 2 lockdown CBs near or in their prime, locked in for the next 3 years, is bad.

Didn't Miami have 2 stud CBS for a few years and still suc ked?

 

[Lagaffe_07]

He’s not a number 1.
I don’t like that, offer DK the Moon, or The Eagles more picks for AJ.

Dk isn’t a #1 either. Godwin has more 1000 yds season than Dk. Their best was the same. Godwin was on pace for 1400 yds last year before getting injured.

Godwin is a very underrated player

That blew out his Ankle, not talking about a sprain.
Plus they had to worry about Evans tearing them a new as shole, so he had some room.
I'd be surprised if he's truly healthy and totally back to normal this year.
And he's going to cost $, which is fine if he's making 5m this year.

Good Player, always liked him.

When you have so many other needs and spending money on a top free agent CB takes away from paying good money for another position, it is bad. I would rather the Pats pay more for say an edge rusher than the #2 CB position. You can only pay top dollar for so many players in free agency.

 

[Love The Drake]

Want about Metcalf and Godwin?

Ramsey was a zone CB and couldn't stay healthy..

They are nearly 140 million dollars under the cap.

Wow. Is there going to be anyone left on the Seahawks?

I'd much rather have Godwin than DK, if his medicals check out. You have to pay both of them a boatload but no draft capital for Godwin and he is a better fit for their offense.

The ankle injury is a concern but in most cases with the proper treatment, players can return to their pre-injury state. That's why you have team doctors.. One key factor is how severe the ligament injuries were. Make sure you have the foot/ankle orthopedic surgeon in Boston review both the original MRI and latest MRI and examine Godwin's ankle and if there are any concerns ongoing (laxity of the ligaments, incomplete range of motion or evidence of early arthritis) you walk away.

I fear, however, that I am going to end up with blue balls for both Godwin and Stanley, when they re-sign with Tampa and Baltimore, respectively, this weekend.
