But I think he's gonna get something like a 1 year, 3 million deal. That's a freaking steal if you get a healthy version of him. If we get 8-10 games from him it could be the difference between going to the playoffs and watching them 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever adjusted salary cap means Yeah I don’t really understand the cap but this concerned me. Makes me feel like we shouldn’t really spend to much in free agency.

It hurts a lot of teams this year and they will have to make cuts they don't want and that sucks for them but for us, who have like the 10th highest payroll, we won't be able to keep our carryover rolling over making it easier to sign Baker/Ward/Chubb etc... in the future. If the carryover means that much to us we can cut (or trade) salary this year but that would have to include pieces like Richardson, OBJ, Landry, Njoku or offensive linemen which seems like a bad idea. We're technically 4 million over the cap right now if we don't include the carryover which puts us at 24 under so that shows just how much it means to have that in our back pocket. Now the decision will be do we want to stay quiet in free agency, make a tough cut/trade or just lose our carryover. Not everyone is going to be happy with whatever decision they make. Hopefully it works out though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe wait until the dust settles, and if a guy you still like is on the street, pick him up for cheap. Don't know if we have more than 1 "big" signing coming our way, but it pretty much has to be a DE or a CB. If we're lucky enough to go for both, give me Carl Lawson and William Jackson. Both former Bengals. Keep it simple lol. If the Browns get Barrett/Lattimore I will cry. Right here. In text. On this forum. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are not going to continue to have roll over cap to help us It's why I think we should spend it on 1 year deals. 7 million for the draft. 3-5 well place 1 year deals. With a well placed rental defense I think we can go a long way in the playoffs. We really need to move on from odell, who just doesnt give us 18 million dollar returns. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#32 Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Normally free agency has three waves of players selected: top tier, nfl starters, and minimum contracts to fill needs. This year because of reduced cap space I think there will be a small group of top tier players and then value contracts on a team need basis. With many more releases, there will be a glut of NFL starters looking for a contract and I believe there will be numerous on year contracts. Free agency this year is loaded with DE and CB as this is a need for Browns I think this will be where we spend $ to get the best value. I like Reddick DE and Williams CB at big money with a S and DT at or above minimum. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReggieCamp Posted March 11, 2021 Author Share Posted March 11, 2021 I won't be surprised if we end up targeting a couple of these guys who were cut. They don't count against you from a comp pick standpoint, but normal UFA's do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well the question is if Wirfs can handle himself as a LT. Pretty sure that’s what his point was or from what I remembered. Dude might be a stud RT but might never be a good LT. Conklin is a stud RT but I don’t see him being able to hold it down at LT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
