Free agency Day 1 grades
|
I'm not into giving grades. And I'm usually patient and will wait to see what happens as there's still room to add valuable players but so far it's been ugly.
Compared to our post FA situation last year basically we replaced Rodney Gunter (who signed and then retired with heart condition but would have been a starter here) with Robertson-Harris (who by all accounts will be a solid player but not the sure thing on DL this team desperately needed. Hopefully he takes the next step in a bigger role for us) and Ronnie Harrison with Jenkins (who seems to be another signing). The rest of the bunch so far are special teamers or average-below average guys (Dorsett...even when he's healthy). Carlos Hyde, the guy that when he was here on Friday complained about lack of carries and 2 days after he fumbled the ball on the first carry of the game.... Seeing how many 2 year deals, 3 year deals were given out at very reasonable prices it feels like we missed a window to overpay and bring him some quality guys that could have been easily let go in 2 years, something that we could easily afford with our cap space situation (and in the future we have Linder and Norwell contracts running out, a rookie QB contract and only Chark coming up for pay day this season). We could do it now while most teams couldn't. In 1-2 years with the cap going up again even with the load we'll have, other teams will have more too.The time to outbid was now with next to no consequences. It's just the first day and It can change but we really need to play it almost perfectly if we want to go into the draft with less needs than we had 2 days ago. |
