SirA1 Posted June 22 Share Posted June 22 (edited) Week 3 Free Agency Additions INT John Franklin-Meyers - Glad to finally bring back JFM to the fold. He played for us in 2018-2020 but was traded in 2020 to land Hasson Reddick, which worked out well. He's been solid the last several years and when I saw he was traded to the Broncos and dropped his price, I was all in. He'll be a backup for Heyward this year but may claim a starting spot after this season if things go the way I envision. LB Zack Baun - Been hearing good things out of Philly about him and looking forward to seeing how he performs in a Fangio defense. I needed a backup LB and again this price was very affordable. Offers some pass rush in the middle. I am one of the minimalist LB owners in the league so only look to have a few on the roster. The Safety Position I stripped this position to the bone before FA as going the cheap route last year was ineffective. I had the cap space to seriously invest for the future. Jabrill Peppers had his breakout year last year replacing Devin McCourty. So it was time to build on that. Sydney Brown's injury likely means he may not start early on this year. S Kam Curl - Primarily a Strong Safety but can cover TE's (which I need in my Division), makes tackles and can cover deep. Love his energy and spot on the youngry Rams. The safety market was horrible this offseason for actual NFL players. Thus why so many vets are still unsigned. I took advantage of that this FA to add guys on the rise that will likely sign bigger contracts in a year or two. S Juanyeh Thomas - Who dis? The Answer is one of the starting Safeties for the Cowboys either this year or in the future. Donovan Wilson and M. Bell are Dan Quinn holdovers on the roster. Zimmer's defense will not be in Single High Safety ever and the starting gigs are up for grabs. Thomas has been getting offseason buzz and played well in his reps last season. Harrison Smith 2.0. S Alohi Gilman - Derwin James' partner in crime. Had 2 INT and 3 FF last year and that was enough to get him resigned to Harbaugh's team this season and beyond. Probably my Money player this year while the younger guys come on and get more experience. S Quentin Lake - You'll see him listed as a NB on depth charts and that's because he played the STAR for the Ram's last year. He's poised to take over the starting S spot next to Curl this season. I like his versatility and multi-position options going forward. But that can be said of most of my players. Son of former Steeler All-Pro great Carnell Lake.

Ragnarok Posted June 22 Share Posted June 22 Berlin FA Round Up DaVon Hamilton INT - With limited cap, we knew we couldn't do much in FA. With Hinish and Ika unlikely to make an NFL roster and Mazi being a bust, a viable 3rd DT behind Quinnen and Derrick was our biggest need. DaVon seems to be back to his 2022 self after injury struggles in 2023. Underrated in 2022, we were very happy to get him at the lowest price possible. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EaglesPeteC Posted June 22 Share Posted June 22 Fairly Buzzed Weekend BDL Rankings TE Akureyri Franchise Cornerstone: Travis Kelce+ Quality Starter: Tre McBride Competitive Starter: Pat Freiermuth Incomplete Evaluation: Ja’Tavion Sanders Total Points: 14pts Whatever magic touch RG has on TE’s, he should start applying it to the rest of the roster….. Svalbard Quality Starter: Sam LaPorta+ Competitive Starter: Dalton Schultz+ Quality Depth: Connor Heyward, Davis Allen Replacement Level: Irv Smith Jr Total Points: 10pts The combination of Schultz and LaPorta is a great duo even without anything of note behind them. CWM Franchise Cornerstone: George Kittle Quality Depth: Kyle Granson, Logan Thomas, Mike Geisiki Total Points: 10pts George Kittle is still a Cornerstone tight end and carries a group of has-beens and also rans behind him Rome Quality Starter: Dalton Kincaid Competitive Starter: Luke Musgrave+ Quality Depth: Cade Otten Total Points: 8pts Rome looks like they hit on not one but two TE’s in last year’s draft meaning they should be hanging around the top of this group for a long time Anchorage Quality Starter: David Njoku+ Quality Depth: Greg Dulcich, Tommy Tremble Incomplete Evaluation: Brock Bowers,Ben Sinnott Replacement Level: Cole Turner Total Points: 7pts Njoku had that rare year 6 breakout and a couple of young players who flashed behind him. If Bowers can deliver on his draft promise, I could see this group towards the top of the heap next year. Hungary Quality Starter: TJ Hockenson+ Quality Depth: Zach Ertz, Daniel Bellinger Incomplete Evaluation: Zach Kuntz Total Points: 7pts If Hockenson was healthy, he would be at cornerstone status and move this group up a couple spots. But without Hock for a good chunk of the year, this could be a room in trouble. Raleigh Franchise Cornerstone: Mark Andrews Total Points: 7pts Andrews on his own puts Raleigh in the middle of the back even without anything behind him. Ivory Coast Quality Starter: Evan Engram+ Quality Depth: Hayden Hurst Incomplete Evaluation: Brenton Strange Total Points: 6pts Engram is a pretty good BDL starter at TE and Hayden Hurst is still….well….there Greenland Competitive Starter: Cole Kmet+, Jonnu Smith Incomplete Evaluation: Tip Reinman Total Points: 5pts Kmet started to break out last year but was still pretty inconsistent, so I struggle to put him in the quality starter yet, even if he pretty close. Jonnu Smith is a really strong TE #2 Berlin Quality Starter: Dallas Goedert Incomplete Evaluation: Darnell Washington, Theo Johnson Total Points: 4pts Goedart has struggled with consistency and health keeping him in Quality Starter status and there is nobody with a body of NFL work to consider behind him. New Orleans Competitive Starter: Jake Ferguson+ Quality Depth: Luke Schoonmaker Total Points: 4pts Ferguson is a fairly formidable BDL starter but nothing that overly scares you. Lancaster Competitive Starter: Chig Okonkwo Quality Depth:Tucker Kraft Total Points: 3pts Lancaster has two players that are young with upside but have not shown enough consistently to raise them higher than this. Quebec Competitive Starter: Kyle Pitts+ Total Points: 3pts Pitts has not delivered on his draft promise yet to put a room with him alone any higher than this. Cancun Competitive Starter: Michael Mayer Quality Depth: Foster Moreau Incomplete Evaluation: Josh Whyle, Jakim Bell Replacement Level: Charlie Kolar Total Points: 3pts I look forward to whatever passive aggressive Blue post that I won’t be quoted or tagged in as a result of this ranking. Las Vegas Competitive Starter: Isaiah Likely Total Points: 2pts It was always Likely that that the Likely backup in Baltimore would result in Likely being at the bottom of this Likely list. Cuba Quality Depth: Jelani Woods Total Points: 1pt He’s just a collection of Jelani Trees UP NEXT (on Monday): OL 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
