2023 Free Agency

[Los216]

Mecole Hardman
Trent Sherfield
Marquez Callaway


Speedy change of pace WR's that won't break the bank. Jakeem Grant being back healthy is also an addition.

Those guys are all (outside of Sherfield) terrible NFL WR's. Multiple hard passes.

I have more faith in Jakeem Grant returning from injury than I do any of them.

Sherfield is the best of the bunch, but he's still just a fourth receiver.

I'd much rather spend on defensive talent and draft an offensive weapon than spend on offensive talent.

I think we're looking for somebody to replace Schwartz in his role and I think Mecole Hardman does that. Probably wouldn't cost much either. He's one of the fastest WR's in the league too.

I would draft a WR and sign Mecole Hardman. I think they like David Bell. I like David Bell. I think at worst David Bell is Hollywood Higgins but with DW4 at QB it's a lot different.

I agree.

I'm done with this defense depending on rookies who make rookie mistakes. We're contending. We need veteran, reliable presences on the defensive side of the ball and then we can put the young depth behind them.

 

[Vee-Rex]

The only area on offense I'm down to spend a few FA bucks on is the offensive line. Any receiver and TE upgrades could be handled in the draft, and I think we're good at RB.

I want the majority spent on the d-line and safeties.

Here me out………..

Kyler Murray just tore his ACL. ARZ needs to do a mini rebuild. Their cap situation looks terrible and Kyler might not be ready to start next season. Even if he is ARZ is not competing next season.

I would trade for DeAndre Hopkins this off-season. ARZ needs to rebuild. Before you go crazy about his salary his contract is slightly more than Coopers when we traded for him. Nuke would essentially be on a 1 year deal and we can restructure the last year. His contract and Coopers are almost the same.

Both are FAs in 2025.

Watson
Cooper
Hopkins
DPJ
Njoku
Chubb

If we could pull it off, I would love to see it but would they accept a 2nd and 4th or something like that?

Watson and Hopkins have ties from Clemson and Houston, of course.

I don't think it will cost that much. With Murray's injury Nuke is now on a different timeline. ARZ should be rebuilding next season. Move your bad salary and play for 2024.

I do think that Nuke still has a lot of game left and the fit here is obvious.

This hypothetical is entirely based on if Steve Keim is GM.

If he is, he’s not going to do anything valuable for rebuilding his mismanagement of the cap.

Kyler Murray's injury changes that regardless who the GM is.

 

[Los216]

What y'all think about JJ Watt as a rotational EDGE and situational pass rusher? 1 year deal. Gets to play his brothers 2 times a year. Reunited with DW4 and Clowney.

I think the smart thing to do with EDGE next season is to platoon. I'd rather not invest a ton of assets in an EDGE. Draft a DT and sign a veteran DT to play next to him.

You can get creative with Myles, Clowney, and JJ Watt.

As someone who actively follows the org, this isn’t as cut and dry as you’re pretending it to be.

While on the hot seat, say they keep Keim/Kliff, they’re not going to roll over and rebuild. Coaching and structuring to keep their jobs while the fan base continues to be upset. The org can’t take another year of an angry and displeased fan base, and they aren’t giving a free pass for the injury when the product was horrible regardless.

If they move on, you’re 100% right- new combo is going to gut and rebuild.

But................

They are going to be bad next year now no matter what. They can't coach or GM their way out of a bad season with bad contracts. So if they know they're going to be bad they can either suck or suck and get picks and move contracts.
