2024 Free agency and draft thread

Be interesting to know what Mayfield is looking to make.

Convinced he gets a Geno type contract when Seattle signed him.

Good move for the Browns IMO, they could use another receiver. I think with a better QB Jeudy’s production will increase.

Are the Browns going to acquire a QB too?

 

[Battlelyon]

But, saying they will win the South before actually getting one is a bit of a stretch.

Just saying what i think will happen, irregardless

Flacco as a backup maybe

Maybe he feels he should make more than Daniels Jones with the cap increase. Some times it's amazing how much players feel they are worth.

 

[Shanemansj13]

Won't matter, Atlanta will win that division

that isn’t saying much

I think that's more about the agents belief in what they can get in the current market. I'm guessing his agent is telling him $20m/yr...whether that materializes or not is another story

Why are you guessing 20m/yr? The lowest paid veteran starting QB is Geno who is averaging 25 mil and everyone else averages north of 30 million.

I agree.

McCarthy strikes me as a high end career backup, a guy who can stick around the League for 8-10 years.

Same, McCarthy seems like he would be a decent backup but not a franchise QB. Certainly not worth a 1st round pick.

Yeah....I want nothing to do with him. Not at the #13 pick.

Earliest I would take him would be with the 44th pick in the 2nd round and I think AOC would beat him out as the starter in preseason.

Average signal callers make 30 mill.

20 mill is way too low.

Give me Bosa or Mack opposite Crosby.

Mack would be cheaper but he older.

Good question, I choose Pittsburgh because it is a better organization even at the cost of throwing to Jefferson. With Pittsburgh i feel like i could help develop wrs and will always be in position to win every year.

I'd pick the Vikings. They have Jefferson, Addison, a decent oline, and a coach that spent his career with Cousins and he might actually be half decent. Steelers rolled with Matt Canada last year. Steelers also in a division with Joe Burrow and Lamar Jackson.

They have those guys in their division, don't have a qb, yet they still don't have a losing season, speaks to the strength of the organization.

I agree, the Browns are not the old Browns they have made some good moves. They still need another defensive line help for Garrett

I agree to a certain extent. Steelers consistently do about as well as you can expect.

That said, Vikings got Josh Dobbs off the street and did improv offense and won a couple of games. I don't really see a bad culture there. If I was talking about Washington or Jacksonville it'd be different and you pick the Steelers easy

Put Bosa opposite Hutchinson and I'd be...

None of it matters if the team is injured and Watson doesn’t improve. Andrew Berry has been amazing. Haslem willing to spend his cash has done wonders. A willing owner makes all the difference in the world. Refreshing after watching Dolan, the Indians owner, for the last 20 years

Bosa when healthy is amazing. When healthy. That duo would be insane
