Yea I'm assuming he is going to get more than what they just signed Greenard. I would think.

I don't get paying a vet running back 8 million dollars.

Why not? That's a bargain given the salary cap this season (At $255M, 8 is 3% of the cap).

By taking someone like Swift or Saquon at that cap hit you're ensuring you don't have to burn a decently early draft pick on someone who may or may not work out.

Seems weird to cut your very good safety in order to sign a different safety :confused: I guess they need every penny they can get after Russ though

LEFT 4 DEAD IS A LOT LIKE FOOTBALL - I JERK OFF TO BOTH
DT was one of our biggest needs so I'm pretty happy. If Koonce keeps developing at Edge or if Tyree Wilson starts showing up on game day, that defensive line could be absolutely filthy.

I'm actually down with paying an RB this offseason for the Pats. Normally wouldn't be, but what'st 10-12 million for Barkley or Josh Jacobs when we have this much cap space and a good RB is one of the best helpers for a rookie QB

Dozen sacks last year. Definitely a break out year, unknown how repeatable it is, but that'll make you money.

Will got the vast majority of the attention and Greenard cleaned up because of it.

He's solid, don't get me wrong, but he isn't your primary pass rusher.

They must not like the idea of a Locke + Stearns starting duo, but this seems a bit much for a cash-poor team. They must like him. I guess you could argue that a player who had an ACL injury in 2022 is a buy-low candidate, since it can take two years to recover.

They aren't, but they are.

Like RB is such a depreciated asset right now, it's kinda wild. Would you really rather have Gabe Davis or Saquon Barkley?

And mind you, the crazy number for Barkley is still cheaper then the base number for Gabe.

Like sure it's an overpay, but if you need weapons, RB on a short term contract is fine, they'll produce for a year or two before disintegrating.

Barkley is a very overrated and unreliable player. I wouldn't be in the market for him at all. Maybe you catch lightning in a bottle and he has a relatively healthy season but IMO it's a big risk.

Serious question, how much more production has Barkley produced than your average 4th round (or lower) RB drafted in the last decade?

I don't know about 4th or lower, but just compare him to Nick Chubb in the same draft. Chubb was a round later and has higher volume and rate stats (a full yard per carry higher) despite fewer touches. Barkley just had that great rookie year.

I think Barkley will do better on a better team. Gabe Davis probably hit his ceiling already.

Barkley still has juice left, and for his entire career he's played behind absolute bottom tier (and yet somehow progressively worse) o-lines against defenses who routinely stack the box because he's the only guy they're scared of (see: safeties playing 8 yards off the LOS because lol Daniel Jones). He is pretty injury-prone and >$12M is kinda nuts but my bet is he'll work out, at least for a while, for any team that signs him
