Far it be from me to take this thread's attention away from Handsome Jimmy, but we got free agency around the corner and some cap magic to play. I'll just take a quick look at each team's situation and where they stand right now. Cap and FA info via Spotrac and Over The Cap Arizona Cardinals Cap space: $22.714 million Notable free agents: Justin Bethel, Tyvon Branch, Karlos Dansby, Drew Stanton, John Brown, Jaron Brown, Alex Boone Top draft picks: 15, 47, 79 Analysis: The Cards need a QB stat, and they probably don't have the cap space to make a run for Cousins. And unless they have enough draft capital to move up for a top prospect, GM Steve Keim and new coach Steve Wilks have to get creative here. Best guess is that they sign a bridge veteran and try to go for one more playoff run with an aging roster. Los Angeles Rams Cap space: $40.989 million Notable free agents: Trumaine Johnson, Sammy Watkins, LaMarcus Joyner, Connor Barwin Top draft picks: 23, 56, 87 Analysis: LA doesn't have many glaring needs, but keeping Johnson and Watkins should be a top priority, and they also need to keep Aaron Donald happy. The reigning Defensive Player of the Year has earned a mega-extension, and I'll be surprised if they don't work one out. Otherwise, I expect the Rams to stay the course and use the draft to keep building up an up-and-coming core. San Francisco 49ers Cap space: $113.872 million Notable free agents: Eric Reid, Carlos Hyde, Jimmy Garoppolo Top draft picks: 9 or 10, 41 or 43, 74 or 75 Analysis: JIMMY G NEEDS WEAPONS ... is only a half-joking take. As thrilling as the 49ers' second-half surge was, they still have a lot of roster holes that need filled if they hope to be taken seriously as 2018 playoff contenders. Still, they have more than enough space to re-sign Jimmy and get the free agents Kyle Shanahan wants, while using high draft picks to John Lynch's pleasure. The Niners have a lot of interesting angles here -- go for it with Jimmy, take a more patient rebuilding approach, or try both? It'll be a fascinating offseason to follow. Seattle Seahawks Cap space: $14.123 million Notable free agents: Jimmy Graham, Sheldon Richardson, DeShawn Shead, Paul Richardson Top draft picks: 18, 49 Analysis: For the first time in the Pete Carroll era, the Seahawks are facing a serious reckoning of their future. The Super Bowl-winning core has reached real age peaks, where "cut him a year a year too early or a year too late" becomes a genuine question. That goes for Kam Chancellor, Michael Bennett, Cliff Avril, and possibly even Richard Sherman and Earl Thomas. Carroll obviously knows the stakes, cleaning out his coaching staff and replacing them with men who more closely follow his vision. But is his vision (including new OC Brian Schottenheimer, which I still wish I was making up) too outdated for today's NFL? Or does he have one final trick up his sleeve? One way or the other, the Legion of Boom's days are numbered. I can only hope there's a smooth transition period coming. Benne fucked around with this message at 09:20 on Feb 8, 2018 |

Niners need a #1 receiver, but aside from that their biggest needs are secondary and pass rush, in my opinion. Which is weird since they've invested so many picks into defense the last few years (thanks Baalke).

Some of those guys are going to turn out to be very good. We're getting some back from injury as well.

Safety is set, interior dline is set. LB, Edge, CB are all still needs. I imagine they'll sign a CB or two in FA (Butler or Melvin?) to pair with Witherspoon, and draft the Edge spot early and an ILB later. Oh, did someone sign a long-term contract with the 49ers today? I had no idea  Edit: important detail: "Garoppolo’s new contract is worth as much as $137.5 million...ESPN reported it was worth $90 million in the first three years, suggesting it was front-loaded to take advantage of the team’s salary-cap cushion."

JIZZ DENOUEMENT posted:Is Quinn good or bad? He's okay, he looked best this year at linebacker then he did at defensive end since blowing out his knee. He can't play every down anymore. It's hard to rate any of the Rams pass rushers because by the time any of them get in the backfield Aaron Donald has already got the pressure/sack.

There was a hilarious snow game where we were thumping the Pats really hard in the first half, but Brady didn’t get benched, he led a second-half comeback that ultimately fell just short.

Jimmy's cap hits First Year: 42 million Second year: 20 million Third year: 24 million (can be cut with minimal dead money at this point, Edit: also includes a no-trade clause at this point) Fourth year: 26 million Fifth year: 26 million That's a very friendly contract, while still letting him dive into swimming pools of cash. The five year contract sets him up for another big pay day if he pans out, and more importantly aligns his contract perfectly with Shanahan and Lynch's.

Asked why he didn't hold out for more money, “Because this is where I want to be.... it's 75 degrees out here. It's not a snowstorm like Chicago."   Edit: Team still has around 75 million in cap space to sign Malcolm Butler, Andrew Norwell and LeVeon Bell. Coldforge fucked around with this message at 20:53 on Feb 9, 2018 |
