I know the season just ended for us but I'm already looking ahead to free agency and the draft. We're going to have to money under the cap but so will a lot of other teams. Many of the free agents never hit the market but I'm so hoping we can at least get 3 starters out of free agency. One guard and a LB would be great to start with.Also, if anyone has a list of potential free agents LB's and guards that you can post. Thank you so much.

Ozzy rules!!
 
I don't think free agency will be very busy at All. Mainly keeping our guys like Kiko, Stills, resigning Landry before next year, Jenkins (solid depth), Bushrod, Branch
 
Thanks Nick. I'll be happy if we can get a guard and a LB in free agency and hit the rest on draft week

im not keen on keeping Jenkins, unless he stays for minimum. Bushrod too, on minimum.

Gonna have close to 60 million in space. Some moves will be made that's not resigning our own.

Agree on Jenkins. Nothing but average and always hurt. I give him credit for trying to play hurt. It means he cares. Bushrod might retired and was one of the worst rated guards in the NFL this year. We need to upgrade

I can understand not liking Jenkins. I like him for depth though, I think he would be a pretty good depth player same think with Bushrod. and Bushrod seems enthusiastic about staying on this team, same as Stills. they see what this team is about to be and want to be part of it.

who do you guys think we sign with all that money then? I see Stills getting some real coin, Landry too and those 2 moves probably take 10-15 million off of the cap next year

I have no problem with keeping those two for depth unless we can find better options but neither one should be a starter next season. I believe it's time to move Tunsil to LT and get two new starting guards

I don't really care about free agency. To reach Cream level and stay there you need truly elite players. They are seldom available in free agency, unless you break the bank. Otherwise, once you reach NFL level not many players are modest early in their career before surging to elite.

As always, I don't care about outliers. The internet is flooded with posters who scramble for outlier examples, as if they carry any relevance.

The draft process allows hidden gems. I'm forever amazed at how differently some of these guys look and perform once in an NFL uniform. Le'Veon Bell, for example, was a big plodding straight ahead runner at Michigan State, with just a hint of instincts and wiggle. I'm not sure I've ever seen a more amazing transformation.

We need to win the draft. Several times, hopefully consecutive. Truly special players, not stop gap fillers. One of the reasons we're stuck in Crowd irrelevancy, that mostly blend level between 6-10 and 10-6, is that so many premier picks from those late 2000s to early 2010s drafts did not pan out. They should be the core of your team right now.
 
And when we do draft good players they need to be resigned before they get to free agency. Saw OV was all pro for the Giants and Miller pro bowl for the Texans. Ajayi had a great season so Miller was not missed but the point to build through the draft is well taken.
