2016 NFL Free Agency Thread

Loving the Bruce Irvin deal and the OL we picked up.....Didn't know much about the second one but reports are he's a good player.

Man.....if Osweiler signs with the Texans....the Broncos may end up with Geno Smith at QB.

Lol

 

[DJ]

That's a fair deal. Knew he could turn his career around.

PFF’S TOP 75 FREE AGENTS OF 2016
MATT CLAASSEN3 WEEKS AGO

Free agency kicks off on Wednesday, so we are taking a look at the best players available this offseason. Our senior analysts have taken everything from past performance, age, injury history, and more into account to give you our top 75 player about to hit the free agent market. The list is not based on what players will earn in their next deals, but rather how we think they’ll play going forward.

We will continue to update the list as cuts, franchise tags, and re-signings take place, so keep checking back to stay up to date.

(Editor’s note: This list was updated at 12:59 p.m. ET on March 8, 2016.)

1. Kelechi Osemele, G/OT
2015 team: Baltimore Ravens

Osemele is best suited as a guard, but has the versatility that teams value. He was a top-10 guard each of the last two years prior to moving to tackle.

Maxwell cleared by Dolphins staff and ready to roll!

17 mill guaranteed

Rams officially in full rebuild mode now imo. They just lost their 2nd and 3rd best DB. Lots of teams chasing William Hayes. Nick Fairley likely gone.

Gaines will slot in for Jenkins, but McLeod doesn't have a ready replacement. Cody Davis isn't good enough IMO, maybe Lamarcus Joyner moves to FS? Either way, they need to add to the DBs via free agency and the draft. Rashad Johnson and Weddle are still out there...

I like Cody Davis but I agree he isn't good enough. Joyner keeps getting talked about as doing really well in the offseason but it never comes out in the regular season. EJ Gaines is probably good enough if the Rams keep Trumaine Johnson but the Rams D officially has enough holes that its hard to justify them doing any silly trades up in the draft.

Maybe that Fitzpatrick to the Rams rumor has legs. It would be an upgrade.

They would still need to shed a QB (preferably Foles). I agree that trading up doesn't make any sense; they may need more picks now, not fewer.

Rams pretty much had to keep William Hayes and Barron played very well last year.

The Rams defense might still be pretty good as long as nobody gets hurt
