2024 NFL Free Agency Thread

I agree overall but I think I'd give Henry 10. It's probably an overpay but at the same time I think the impact would be pretty large.

Just way too many career carries, and especially in recent years.

 

[Genghis Khan]

Good.

It's definitely a concern. But the last we saw of him, he still looked better than a guy like Barkley. I'd rather roll the dice on Henry still having it than on Barkley getting it back.

We are getting lapped!!!! Go Jerry go….the best GM everz and stuff and thingz

 

[Genghis Khan]

That's the first move in the division that I think shifts things a bit, but they still have big holes all over the roster and Daniel Jones at QB so hey.

I don't think it moves the needle at all. Good player but not that good, and probably will now be shockingly overpaid.

I've never liked Barkley as a player that much. All hype, a few spectacular moves and big calves... But not that great a back.

I'd much rather have Jacobs or Aaron Jones. I think Henry is fading pretty fast, but I'd rather have him, too.

That sucks

I'm not saying it moves the needle necessarily in terms of making them a legit contender for the division but it's the first move where I've sat back to consider the ramifications.

The rest are basically shuffling deck chairs.

That's a lot of money for him, I thought he'd be a guy in our range around a 2/8 kind of deal.

 

[boozeman]

Other than Stewart going back to the Colts, I am not busted up about not getting a shot at anybody. Not that I expected it or anything.

That Ekeler signing reminds me of the typical Snyder era signing. Overpaying based on name.

This coupled with reports about the new owner sitting in on player interviews during the combine should be red flags for that fan base.

This is a move the Bears should have made. They're going to need a locker room vet for Caleb Williams to lean on in year 1.

Tyrod Taylor?

 

[1bigfan13]

Tyrod Taylor?

He'd be a good option.

 

[Cujo]

It's actually 3/37.75 according to Schefter.

He's 27 and they're paying him like an elite back when he's never really lived up to expectations. Not sure what they're doing exactly, I guess trying to get fans excited after two franchise legends retired?

That's insane. I am glad we're not throwing money around willy nilly, but I don't think we're make any moves that move the needle.

 

[boozeman]

He'd be a good option.

Or if going Great Value, Josh Johnson.

 

[boozeman]

Watch the broad be right this time.

If Williams will listen to him...
