OFFICIAL 2024 NFL Trades, cuts, free agency, and more

[fanotodd]

OTC lists him as a 4M cap hit and no void yr next yr...all this yr.

Thanks. I just read a post on the breakdown.
My memory does this at times!

 

[Ram_Rally]

Reports are out that the Rams had strong interest in Mike Evans. I don’t know if that was before or after signing Robinson.

I'm gonna guess even after since they didn't even wait till free agency.

 

[Ram_Rally]

IIRC, the contract is not guaranteed and is incentive laden. I believe his actual salary is $1.5mil?
He’s looking more like insurance now.

That makes a lot more sense

 

[Corbin]

Wilson to the Falcons sounds like a good fit?

The offense talent is pretty solid there.

Raheem needs a QB.

I don’t know what to think of Wilson? But he has played some good ball in the NFL.

If I'm Raheem I go all in on Cousins first. Obviously not pay him the moon but get him under contract as your first option.

Actually, the “report” in question listed about a half dozen teams who supposedly were interested in Evans. The Rams bloggers who “repeated” the report focused only on the Rams and added their own adjectives.

Wow, ljarius Sneed will get $19.8m on the tag.

What a pay day. The chiefs have allowed him to seek a trade if he wants to do that.

He probably will because he might be the best corner in the league. Not sure teams will pay a draft pick plus the contract on top of that anyway.

Although the Rams did that for Ramsey. But they had one and a half seasons of cheap salary to work with initially.

Darious Williams is getting released. Had a good year last year. I hope we pick him up.

They will prioritize released players over UDFAs, especially if they feel they will lose Dotson. They will not want to jeopardize that comp pick.

But we expect them to sign at least one player that cancels out the comp pick anyway, right?

Sounds like Falcons like Cousins, Fields and Baker in that order.

Forgot who was saying this but the speculation is that we might see more trades like this as teams see the draft hollowed out after round 4 with fewer underclassman declaring due to NIL. Trading 5ths and below for backups at positions each year significantly weakened in the draft could become the new norm. Sounds like OL took a hit this year after round 4 due to NIL.

Yep, I’m hearing the same. This draft is not deep. I expect Snead to go back to his old strategy of drafting guys like Fendi Odoban with the late picks. Total unknowns with athletic upside.

I hope they trade up with the late round picks if at all possible.

 

[Londoner]

I hope they trade up with the late round picks if at all possible.

That might be harder than usual if everyone knows that the later rounds are devoid of talent.

 

[WestCoastRam]

That might be harder than usual if everyone knows that the later rounds are devoid of talent.

I agree that trading picks up will be harder but not impossible.

My guess is that the talent drain is not even across the board at all positions. Talent in general will take a hit but there will probably be certain positions that are hollowed out more than others year to year.

 

[RamnSD]

"I expect Snead to go back to his old strategy of drafting guys like Fendi Odoban with the late picks."

Fendi wasn't a Snead pick. Onobun was picked in 2010 under GM Billy Devaney, and Snead arrived in 2012.

 

[Merlin]

Problem with Wilson is during his glory years he had a stout run game. There's a ton of QBs out there who could do the job with a great run game backing them up. So it follows with "why would you want to pay him" when he's basically lumped in with that group. He might be the midget king of that group but he's still in that group.

Hope Raheem is careful with that one. He could do the job for you but you gotta build it right for him. So why not take a shot on a guy who might be more and build it right around him at a cheaper cost.

 

[Allen2McVay]

...

Fendi Onobun was several years before Les Snead joined the Rams' Organization.

But Billy Devaney thanks you.

I agree to prioritize Cousins, if I were Raheem. You know he can still play at a high level.
