Another interesting note is that they have Watt signing with Cleveland. And they have Ryan Fitzpatrick rated higher than Watt. This is just a terrible list all around

They actually think a team will pay Newton 5 million.   

Do they consider him a top 50 free agent?

When you have teams that draft Rosen, think Tua is a franchise QB, and will fight for Wentz... Seems doable.

This made me laugh a little, it’s true though, no telling where or how priorities are arrived at...

I think the number is about right for Williams. That is exactly the kind of deal I'd try and do. $10.5m AAV over 3 years, $18.75m guaranteed. Do a $9m signing bonus, prorated at $3m per year. Then a $4m fully guaranteed salary in 2021 (making it an $7m cap hit this year) and a $5.75m guaranteed salary plus $2m of unguaranteed salary ($10.75m hit) next year. Then his third year his cap hit something like $14m but escapable for a $3m hit.

Personally speaking, I’m not interested in giving Ngakoue that kind of money over that period of time. Resigning Williams is good. Get me Watt and Curtis Samuel and I’m good. 

 

Yea I am interested in Ngakoue now he is a free agent and someone isn't asking me to give up picks for him but not at $17.5m AAV unless I can keep the guaranteed percentage a bit lower than the number in that article. I am not paying him that much and guaranteeing him nearly 60% of it.

Why does everyone project us signing 3-4 Outside Linebackers?   We got pushed around in the Championship game, and the answer is to sign a 6'2 246 pound Edge Rusher to play Defensive End in an even front defense?   I wouldn't count on it.

 

If you want to sign a 3-4 OLB to a big deal, bypass Yannick and go get Bud Dupree from Pittsburgh.  The guy actually has some size.

Chase Daniel made $5 million this year.

Ngakoue is better, younger, and has a ton less wear and tear than Watt at this point.

yannick would be a solid pass rusher for us.  double digit type guy 

He has only had double digits once and that was back in 2017.
