Sllim Pickens Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 For FFMD purposes, the Chargers deal looks awfully fair. In real life I hope we get more but knowing how these go, I like it. But definitely would want to wait on the Dolphins and see if they are interested in moving up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dolphins didn't seem overly interested, responding with a "We're not that interested, but let us know if you want to make an offer" feel. I'm checking with the Raiders as well, and the Jaguars have thrown out a Ngakoue, #9 and picks for #3 and picks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TL-TwoWinsAway Posted April 1, 2020 Author Share Posted April 1, 2020 If the Raiders were to consider #12, #19 and #91 for #3, and we were to move #91 for Thuney, how would that be received here? Random ideas. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TL-TwoWinsAway Posted April 1, 2020 Author Share Posted April 1, 2020 Side note: it appears that, as of now, all "team free agents" are kept on their previous team's roster. That means that we have technically re-signed the following: Kyle Sloter ($0)Jermaine Kearse ($0)Kenny Wiggins ($0)Damon Harrison ($0)Mike Daniels ($0)Darius Kilgo ($0)Jamie Meder ($0)Tavon Wilson ($0)Jack Fox ($0) (Rashaan Melvin signed with the Jags in real life prior to the roster lock date. We'll get that fixed.) That being the case, I think we should treat this as a "real life" scenario and "offer contracts" to those of interest. (Daniels and Wiggins have been mentioned, and I tend to agree.) We'll release the rest. Thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigC421/ Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 Have no idea what an assistant GM is, not really something I was interested in. Glad to give input on prospects non the less Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll get the prospect codes done today. I have the combine list plus the pro days until they shut things down. Would have to see if I could put it into Google drive or something like that.

I went to CBS and am working on randomizing the prospects by position groups. Gotta head to bed soon, so I'm trying to see how much progress I can make tonight.

TL-TwoWinsAway Posted April 2, 2020 Author Share Posted April 2, 2020 (edited) I put together a quick top 100 prospect code list and sent it out to BigC, Karnage, LionArkie and Sllim. Just something to get us started, as the draft is Friday. If you'd like a copy, please make it known and you'll have it. (My bad, I wasn't clear: please refer to the draft prospects by their number on this list and not by name. It'll allow us to talk openly on here about draft plans and targets without revealing our intentions to the other teams.)

TL-TwoWinsAway Posted April 2, 2020 Author Share Posted April 2, 2020 Do we have an interest in spending significantly more money at DE (Ngakoue) or OG (Thuney)? Or neither? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm on the fence about both. I think it would depend on the contract. If Thuney is half the cost of Ngakoue, I'd rather go this route. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll also be cheaper (in terms of draft value) to get Thuney. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thoughts? @LionArkie @Louis Friend @Karnage84 @BigC421/ @Sllim Pickens Lets try to finalize our roster (as it stands right now). Two votes: 1) re-sign Mike Daniels for 1 year, $4M 2) re-sign Kenny Wiggins for 1 year, $2M If you want to re-sign anyone else, throw it out there with a price and length. If not, we'll release the rest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming guaranteed money/dead cap is 50% or less of each of these contracts, then it makes sense to bring back guys at key positions of need on the cheap. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
