2024 Free agency and draft thread

They have those guys in their division, don't have a qb, yet they still don't have a losing season, speaks to the strength of the organization.

Atlanta doesn't have a QB yet either.

Why are you guessing 20m/yr? The lowest paid veteran starting QB is Geno who is averaging 25 mil and everyone else averages north of 30 million.

Average signal callers make 30 mill.

20 mill is way too low.

2 things....1) Now you know I don't really pay attention and 2) What's $10m between friends?

They will get one, they have a good foundation set up for the qb. You would think that would be their number one priority.

I expect Atlanta will have Cousins off the board within a day or 2 after FA opens. If it takes more time than thinking Tampa and Vegas has entered the equation with competitive offers.

That sounds awesome. Thought he might get released for cap space. Be great to have him play his entire career with the Seahawks.

Yeah, poor guy

Give me Bosa or Mack opposite Crosby.

Mack would be cheaper but he older.

If LA does not trade Bosa before the 15th he will only cost $15M instead of $22M this year.

Rams will be getting one of Defensive Ends, him, Hunter, Reddick or Burns.

would take the most to get Burns. Bosa makes sense

It's funny, years ago. Carolina turned down to 1sts Rams for him. Now they won't get one first for him.

Bosa makes the most sense, mostly with his defensive line coach coaching now on the Rams.

Good lord, 95 guaranteed

I'm just a fan in general of star players playing their whole career in one place. Especially on a Super Bowl team.

The Patriots would've never done this, though. $32 mil a year for 5 years. Nobody else is getting paid on that defense for 3 years. Its a young group so they can make it work.

I wonder what Sneads trade value is.

What is funny about that, Matthew Slater just retired. His dad was Jackie Slater, both players played 15+ seasons for their respective teams their whole career. They might also be the first player father/son Hall of Famers.

The Chiefs had 7 thousand in cap space. Interesting to see how they managed this signing.

Not 100% sure but I think Sneed being on the franchise tag is about $20 mil. and he has to be moved. Mahomes' contract can be restructured to the detriment of future seasons, I'd imagine.

Huh... I get it's a late round pick so whatever, and it's pretty clear the Pats are going to take a QB (new regime) with their 1st rounder, but why do the Jags want him with Lawrence there? I get you need a backup, but Mac Jones is on his final year (no way they exercise the 5th year option)... maybe Lawrence doesn't want to resign with Jax lol.

I guess just in case he gets hurt but $5M on a backup isn’t crazy but it seems like they have other, bigger needs. Is the FO worried about TL’s health…
