NFL 2018 Offseason, Free Agency & F Tags

Alright everyone, the season is over. Lets keep the offseason moves, Free Agency & franchise taggings here.

Lets make awful lowly AFC level playing against NFC.
In AFC, Evil can be on vacation in December & January and show up in Superbowl.

It is just tragic to think that Eagles have to go through some of the Elite QBs -
Rodgers
Wilson
Newton
Brees
Ryan
Goff
Garoppolo
Smith et al.

Compared to that what do AFC's Evil has to go through?
Past it Ben
Overrated Carr
Crooked Watson
Shoulderless Luck

Fcuking hilarious this s#!t.
Some of the lesser QBs in NFC like Eli & Dak are more formidable than those QBs from AFC list up there FFS.

Lets get the Cousins, Bradfords & Keenums loaded into some of the AFC openings in Broncos, Jags, Bills, Jets, Clevelands, Dolphins. FFS bring Johnny footy if needed from his therapy.

Lets make AFC atleast 1/8th competitive like NFC and make things little bit interesting in Superbowl FFS!!

Other than QBs - what do you think about Bell's tag?
What do you think about Vikings QB situation?

 

How can a quarterback who has started only 7 games be considered Elite?

 

Jimmy G got paid because he is elite.
Luck replaced Manning with Zero starts.
Rodgers was a Elite before 0 starts.

Wentz was a shoe in to be a great with 0 starts.

You can look and tell.

Eli Manning even with 2 gifted rings can never be a Elite.

 

Eh, in fairness I only saw him play one game. When the 49ers destroyed the Jags.

Anyhow, when does free agency start? I don't know what the think about the Vikings quarterback situation. I would probably say goodbye to Sam because of his costs and injury prone-ness, and keep Keenum (because he's earnt it) and my heart would say keep Teddy.

 

Teddy is Going to be 1st over Case.

Which is good. Teddy can take them to next level

 

Yeah I'd like to see Teddy play, because as the first QB I've seen his pick in the draft, I have a bit of an affinity to him. And I have a Teddy Bridgewater jersey. It would be interesting to see how we do with Teddy now that we have a running game, and we have some decent WR like Diggs and Theilen. People say he can't throw long, but tbh, I think that was a mixture of play calling (a lot of Bradford's passes were short too) and a lack of protection by our O-line which is supposedly better now.

Also keen to see Dalvin Cook make his comeback as he looked pretty good until his injury last year.

 

Cousins getting crazy offers. 60 M .

hope he goes to AFC team

 

The Jets says they will go "all in" for Cousins. I hope they don't. Talk about putting all your eggs in one basket!

Too many good QB prospects in this year's Draft (they have #6 pick) and the Jets need to spend a whole bunch of money in other places too. The team is still the mythical "year away" from being competitive.

 

Keenum is now a known quantity and CAN STAY HEALTHY. Teddy will hook up with another team as a backup.

 

Tbh I think Kirk is tad overrated. Not saying because he is a direct rival.

Remember last season Trevor Simeon was the next best thing until this season.

Either way I won't worry as long as AFC teams get some good QB.

 

Bradford will go, Keenum will probably go as I think some other team will throw money at him and the Vikings 100% shouldn't pay him big money. Hoping Bridgewater agrees some kind of "prove it" contract which isn't really high and allows both sides to re-evaluate after the upcoming season.

Some journalist who is reliable with Vikings stuff has said that he has spoken with Cousins and the Vikings are his preferred destination of the teams interested in him, but I have no idea about cap space and how it all works really so don't know if that is a viable option when they have some of their better players coming up for contract renewal and need $$ for that.

If possible I'd say let all the QBs walk unless Teddy takes a cheap deal, sign Cousins in FA and then just draft OL and DL early and often in the draft and the team should be set for another play off challenge.

 

It's gonna be a good division that one next season.
This off season is way to long

 

Sincerely hope Kirk goes to either Jets or Broncos. But Kirk is still little overrated. He is small upgrade over Blake Tbh.

Cannot wait for Draft day

 

So Vikings become the first team ever to shed 3 starting QBs in one off season. Cousins is all but done and his contract should be off set on the cap by getting rid of the other 3. I'm glad Keenum is getting paid, and doubly glad it is not by the Vikings. So it has worked out how I had hoped.

McKinnon is now the 4th highest paid RB in the league which is mental for a committee back and some other fringe players have been cut.

Managed to get Siemian from the Broncos as well with a very strange trade. Vikings get Siemian and a 2018 6th round pick from the Broncos and the Broncos get a 2019 5th round pick. Seems pretty weird to me as basically Vikings are getting a 26 year old backup QB with about 20 games starter experience for nothing.

A lot of big players have moved/been cut so should be an interesting 48 hours or so. Really hope some team is stupid enough to throw money at someone like Nelson (hello Browns). Wonder where Suh and Honey Badger will end up.

 

On behalf of a happy Jets Nation, thank you Minnesota for saving us from ourselves. Cousins goes to a team ready to take the next step. The Jets get to spread the wealth over many need positions and actually build a contending team in one offseason.

Hope for a good QB selection in the Draft and let him sit a year. Teddy Bridgewater and Josh McCown both signed 1 year deals. How do you figure out if Bridgewater can still ball if he doesn't play regularly?

 

Where have keenum and Bradford gone ?

 

Keenum to Broncos and Bradford to Cardinals

 

Interesting

 

You can't is the simple answer. He looked ropey in the game he came back for the Vikings, but he had been out for a long time. He seems to be a proper leader and everyone in the Vikings camp was rooting for him to make a comeback. The off season and pre season will say a lot about how badly the injury has effected him and if can't beat out McCown on the depth chart that will say a lot. He was never a brilliant QB before his injury, but was definitely improving, but right now it is hard to judge just what sort of impact he can have in the league.

 

Update: The Jets traded up to the 3rd selection in the draft. Josh Rosen, I hope.
