Official 2020 Free Agency Thread

Bortles got Jacksonville to an AFCC game. He did so without many weapons outside of fournette. He has had good seasons before. He absolutely could hold the ship if rodgers went down, and I believe he signed for 5 million with the Rams so I think a 3 year for 12 would do it.

I think perhaps you give him a little too much credit. Jags had the NFL's #1 rushing offense and #17 passing offense in 2017 as well as the NFL's #2 defense. He's never been able to win when he was the focal point of the offense. Outside of 2017, he's 14-43 as a starter.

Its actually simple. You let him walk and give McCarthy a do over on Taysom Hill...duh!!

I want to see this

Adam Schefter @AdamSchefter

Lions have spoken with multiple teams about a potential trade for Pro Bowl CB Darius Slay, per sources. Any team that trades for Slay would have to compensate Detroit and Slay with a new deal. Other teams believe Slay will be traded this off-season, but Lions adamant on value.

Would be ironic for Hill to get a chance with a coach guaranteed to put him in shotgun 50 times a game and expect him to pass from the pocket or a half rollout.

CUT JIMMY ALREADY

TE's to consider in free agency would be Hunter Henry and Eric Ebron. Henry is great when not injured
ILB's to consider would be Cory Littleton, who would be ideal for what our DC needs. Joe Schobert would be ok but he's probably staying in Cleveland

Mike Garafolo @MikeGarafolo

The #AZCardinals have agreed with OT D.J. Humphries on a three-year, $45 million deal with $30m over the first 2 years, $29m guaranteed, sources say. Jon Perzley and Brian Mackler of @SPORTSTARSNYC were able to strike a deal with the Cards on David Johnson and now Humphries.

Word out of Cleve was they wanted to move on from Schobert. I really like the guy. He could be the plugger with Martinez chasing. Pettine should alter his scheme to include two classic ILB types. Sound vs the run.

Anyone aware of any young interior DL types out there in UFA land?

Best list so far: https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/free-agents/all/

Will include signings I guess when they become official in March? Has a signed filter, but no one on it yet.

The thrill is gone with the Rodgers, Z and P contracts. It's always fun to spend but less fun when you're a day late and dollars short to get over the hump.

Gotta hope for some lucky low cost pan outs or we fucked

[RashanGary]

The thrill is really gone for Minnesota ! Theyre done for.

[RashanGary]

On the bright side, we have three good pass rushers under contract for next year and a secondary going into their second year together. Sullivan should slide right into Williams spot and be fine. Greene and Campbell have experience and cohesiveness in the dime spot.

I do expect an elite pass defense in 2020. Hopefully it's enough to get us home playoff games and we luck into pass teams in the post season.

[RashanGary]

I'd rather have Martinez than Bulaga. I feel better about the two headed Vehldeer/Light or draft pick monster than I do the Summers/Burks/pathetic draft debacle

[RashanGary]

Martinez is getting the blame for the horrible run game edge play by our pass rush princesses. He's an alright player, young and by far the best we're gonna get. I hope his price stays reasonable
