Starting C & LB for less than Hunt

[Michael Scott]

Good business so far. Wouldn’t want any of the guys we lost back at their price tag. We are still in day 1 of FA. Lots of offseason left + draft + June 1 (Howard cap).

People overreact way too much on the first day of free agency. We are either SB champs or avoiding the inevitable rebuild on here after 1 day lol

Let this **** play out some.

 

[The Ghost]

Can we bring Connor Williams back as a Guard? What about Raekwon Davis? I’m not a huge fan of his but is he still around? Anyone left from the 2020 draft besides Tua and our LS for that matter?

Raekwon Davis has no business coming back.

To the OP’s premise, it appears Brewer, Brooks AND Jonnu Smith combined are right around Hunt’s AAV.

That’s a win.

OT's play into mid 30s...

I’d give him a one year now and give him a 2 year when TA retired

 

[web1313]

Ah dang I thought he was like 27. Still way better than what he was expected to be

Wish he would play some guard also but he doesn’t.

 

[VAFinsfan72]

If we can re-sign Connor Williams to play OG at a discount that might be a good idea.

 

[Kev7]

Don’t be shocked with a big time WR at 21.

Need the Tyreek succession plan.

We still need DB DE DT and OL help.

Not yet, Tyreek still has a few more years remaining on the Dolphins.

But we’re in the business of running a track team.

I would argue one step further than that; their contracts are shorter and have less guaranteed money as well. That means we get players while they are in their prime and have the ability to move on if things don’t work out. You give Hunt (who will be 28 in August) a 5 year $100M deal and you are stuck with him at least 3 years. If they have to rework his money, probably 4 or even 5 years at massive cap hits. These mid-tier contracts are the back bone of a roster.

Yup and I want to add one more. Josh Reynolds.

I know that but I also know McD.

That's pretty much how we have to look at deals moving forward since we're in cap hell. Hopefully we can get a decent starting CB and Safety without breaking the bank.

They are under the cap now and get another 18 mil from X June 1st
