In order to distract myself from the insanity of politics, Ill try and break down the Vikings FA. Anthony Harris S Had a great 2019 and was one of the best safeties in the NFL according to PFF. Got franchise tagged, and MN couldnt find a willing trade partner. Had a pretty average 2020. Wont be resigned. Eric Wilson LB Normally WLB that filled in for Anthony Barr at SLB when he tore his pec and went out for the year. Had a few good games, might be brought back if they cut Barr for his big cap hit or as depth. Rashod Hill RT Swing tackle, decent enough at that. Probably wont be resigned. Sean Mannion QB The usual back up QB in case cousins goes down. Been around for a few years, will probably get brought back cause he knows the system, unless the Vikings use one of their million 6-7th round picks on a project QB. Ameer Abdullah RB 3rd String RB that is really only here for kick returns and to score 1 TD against the Lions each time MIN plays them. Probably wont return. Dakota Dozier LG Absolute trash guard. Gtfo George Iloka S Safety that played with Zim back in MIN. Wasn't even on the roster at the start of the year, but was signed as depth. Honestly wouldn't be suprised if he gets brought back to fill Anthony Harris' spot due to cap space and knowing Zimmer's system front and back. Todd Davis LB Back up MLB that did decently when Kendricks went down. Will probably be brought back. Brett Jones C Back up C that played 1 game and did well at guard. Somehow didnt play over Dozier cause the Vikings dont know how to put together a decent oline. Hopefully he comes back and can be our token 1 inside olineman that has a good season before falling off a cliff for the 3 years after. Hardy Nickerson LB Back up to Todd Davis. Was about as effective as a 3rd string MLB could be. (Terrible) Jaleel Johnson IDL Late round DT who is best served as a role player. Got more playing time this year and was unspectacular. Probably wont be brought back. Chris Jones CB 4th overall CB. Wont be resigned. Ifeadi Odenigbo EDGE Best used a situational pass rusher to spell better players. Zim seems to like him so he will probably be brought back. Likely the 4th String DE after Hunter, Wonnum, and whoever The Vikings draft in the 1st round. Mike Boone RB 3rd RB. Is a SPARQ god. Does decently enough to probably get resigned for the minimum at most. Chad Beebe WR 3rd WR who is more flash than production. Might get resigned but the Vikings desperately need an upgrade assuming that Irv Smith doesnt take over as the slot receiver.

Cam should go to Pittsburgh and whenever big ben feels fat and sleepy on the weekend he can just let Cam take it. So like. 5 games for Cam 11 for big ben. Probably be better than Rudolph.

Colts have a ton of cap space this offseason, but also a ton of guys entering free agency: Phillip Rivers - Has played well enough that if he gets his foot healthy in the offseason and wants to come back, he'll probably get another 1-year deal on par with his current one Jacoby Brissett - Almost certainly gone unless Rivers decides not to come back for some reason. TY Hilton - Started slow this year, but has picked up a lot of steam toward the end of the season and is an important foundational piece and locker room leader. Should absolutely be re-signed. Justin Houston - Has been solid, but definitely a step down from his production last year. Wouldn't mind bringing him back for the right price, but I expect he'll find a better deal elsewhere. Denico Autry - Our second-best DL and a great complimentary piece to Buckner, should be re-signed but might be too expensive Malik Hooker - Never quite lived up to his potential, and the rookie Julian Blackmon has already taken his spot. Gone. Xavier Rhodes - Came in on a cheap prove-it deal, and successfully proved it. Has been our CB1 all year and played very well, should get a decent extension. Le'Raven Clark - Backup swing tackle, thoroughly replaceable Tavon Wilson - Depth safety, thoroughly replaceable TJ Carrie - Depth signing at CB that has actually played pretty well. Will likely test the market to get a starting gig somewhere, but I wouldn't be opposed to bringing him back Trey Burton - Much-heralded offseason acquisition, hasn't done much and probably isn't any better than TE3 on our depth chart Marlon Mack - A good runner whose season ended to injury in Week 1. Would love to have him back, but Jonathan Taylor and Nyheim Hines own this backfield now. Anthony Walker - Was on his way to being a bust, but Leonard and Okereke have made his job in the LB corps a lot easier, and he's a good complimentary piece. Likely re-signs for a moderate deal. Al-Quadin Muhammad - Sneaky good DE, and we don't have too much talent at that position. Should be re-signed. George Odom - All-pro special teamer. Should be re-signed. Zach Pascal - Diamond in the rough UDFA receiver, would love to bring him back. Ashton Dulin - Speedy special teams stud, should be re-signed. Mo Alie-Cox - Has developed into a capable receiving TE, should be re-signed.

Gatts posted:I have to assume the Colts bring back Rivers even if they draft a QB right? I would assume so. He'd be a great mentor option, especially since any QB the Colts are in position to draft is going to be a late-first prospect at best, and thus likely not ready to start right away.

The Puppy Bowl posted:You sure about that? Honestly? Yeah, he had a decent season, and we lost by 3 in a playoff game against the hottest team in football. He missed a few throws, and he occasionally makes some frustrating decisions in general, but a lot of the problems in that game were uncharacteristic drops by the WRs and RBs. I'll take him over Brissett for sure, and I don't want to spend any draft capital on Wentz or Darnold. I expect they'll look at some guys in the draft, but unless they fall in love I don't see them moving up far enough to get one in the 1st.

FA or a trade is their best bet to fill the gap. Rivers coming back is an option, but they're also linked to possibly getting Stafford or Wentz. I'd love if they could splurge and sign Dak. But the Colts have other pressing needs in the draft and can't spend it on grooming another QB after just drafting Eason. They will need to fill holes at LT, CB, and DE.

Yeah, I think Rivers with Eason as primary backup is the most likely scenario going into next year. I think they'll look closely at the top 5-6 QBs in the draft, and if one falls they might pull the trigger, but I don't see Ballard giving up what would be needed to go from 21-ish to top ten. Pass rush and a Castonzo replacement are both just as pressing, and there's a decent chance the long-term solution to one or both of those is sitting there at their pick.

With his (and the team's) mediocre year I can't imagine that his price tag will be out of this world. He could be back on a short deal just because the dip in the cap will likely just be this year (I would assume) and he knows the system. Most of the other guys are backups or trash.

After today’s game I’m curious to see if they prioritize Jonnu or Corey. I would have put my money on Jonnu before but he’s really disappeared as the season wound down. Him and firkser fill similar roles imo, wouldn’t be mad at letting him walk and trying to reup Corey. Depends on the money I guess. Really no rhyme or reason to which one of them gets the lions share of the targets

I feel like Fuller, while a good and useful player, has been overhyped on what he could be and not what he is. Before the injury and suspension stuff. Don't get me wrong, I'd love to have him on my team (imagine I'm a fan of all teams here), but...well. It's just hard to point to how much you're gonna offer I guess.
|
# ? Feb 8, 2021 14:54 |

Absolutely agree with you goons about all the considerations with Fuller. That's why I am wondering if he might be a relatively decent contract for what kind of player he could be. My number one dream is Curtis Samuel. Dude is great and did a bunch of snaps out of the back field on wonky plays.

# ? Feb 8, 2021 15:06 |

Fuller shouldn't be your first/best option, but if you already have a guy like that then he's worth bringing in
|
# ? Feb 8, 2021 15:26 |

Fuller is a good fit with deshaun Watson so if Houston is trying to keep him (lol) they should be resigning him ASAP. Of course I’m assuming easterby is going to decide he’s a character risk and not offer him anything.

sounds like patrick peterson is gone. i'd assume KC or TB are favorites but he'd be a second or third CB so who cares about fit. he's in a weird spot though, he cannot match up against speed and he's physical at the LOS but not at tackling. probably not moving to safety because of that. he's still really quick mentally, just that doesn't get you a whole lot if you are disguising coverages to get picks but you don't have the speed to recover and go get the ball.

Thanks mcmagic. Sherman is a no-brainer. Id be surprised if he didn't sign with either us or the Raiders. The WR speculation JetsTwitter is melting down over just seems like something that wouldn't ever leak or maybe it's signaling for Deshaun, who knows. quote:The Jets are taking a look at Smith-Schuster and Will Fuller V at the top of the market, as well as second-tier options such as restricted free agent Zach Pascal.

I wouldn't mind the Colts picking up Henry, but I suspect the price tag is going to be beyond what Ballard considers fair value. I do think the Colts add a TE through free agency, but most likely it'll be one of the second-tier names (or, at worst, just re-signing Trey Burton to another short cheap deal). Pascal's not going anywhere. TY might actually be available though, as much as it would pain me to see.

quote:19. Lavonte David, LB He fucks up some of the factual information(the Bucs run way more 3-4 than the Dolphins do fwiw), but I think Lavonte David is a really good fit for the Dolphins because their MLB is a huge loving pain in the rear end where you either have to be able to shed blocks really well(which is what NE usually does), or have the instincts and skills to reliably beat blockers to their spot(which is a really high standard that it's probably impossible standard for most guys to meet unless you're a salty veteran)

Jones to the Rams feels like a given, he's got great chemistry with Stafford and he's from the area. I honestly have no idea what Detroit is gonna do with free agents given how much the team has to be rebuilt. I really hope we sign Golladay to a long term deal since I literally only know one other WR that's still on the roster, but if he decides to test the waters and it comes down to a bidding war, I don't think the Lions are going to come out on top.
