I think Sherman, Houston and Ingram should all be guy's JD kicks the tires on. Sherman is still a solid player. Ingram and Houston both can probably still put up 5-7 sacks opposite Lawson. All would be nice 1 year stop gaps 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously we’ve all been talking about veteran CB’s like Sherman and Nelson, but I’d also really like K.J. Wright on a 1 year deal so we aren’t heavily relying on guys like Sherwood and Hamsah from the jump. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flip side for this team is I don’t think the Jets are in play yet, looks like the projection is five out seven in. Hopefully next year they break through.

heymangold Posted May 3, 2021 Share Posted May 3, 2021 Definitely need a CB and LB - love the athleticism of these S’s that they brought in but need a guy with experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also would not mind seeing if we can find a vet RG who could be an upgrade over Van Roten/Lewis and Feeney. And then I will hope that Cam Clark beats them all out. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then I will hope that Cam Clark beats them all out. Agreed A guy like Trai Turner is still out there. He’s not the player he was a few years ago but he’d still probably be an upgrade over what we currently have at RG. Hopefully Clark steps up and shows that he’s ready.

If JD is willing to give $200,000 guaranteed to a smallish you UDFA DB out of college… I wonder what he’d be willing to offer Sherman or Nelson to come in and help lock down one side of the field? Same goes for the UDFA edge Hamelicur? $200k guaranteed. What will Houston or Ingram be offered on 1 yr. deal? Crowder’s money or Lewis savings?

I think feeney despite being a mediocre C at best was a pretty good G. I don’t see an issue slotting him in at RG. Ultimately I think it will be a competition among the 2 or 3 bets we have and Clark. Not the worst situation. I think RT abd C are set for next year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lewis, Van Roten and Feeney are all the same caliber player. Fine as a back up, but not a guy you want as a starter. No need for all 3, and Lewis is highest paid. As for Crowder, no need to rush to move on from him. As we have seen the last few years, it is tough to keep all of your top 4 WRs healthy. With Crowder we have a solid WR room that goes 5 deep. If the other guys stay healthy through camp, maybe we can deal him to a contender who needs a slot in Aug/Sep. Or hang on to him until the deadline. If one or two guys miss some time, it will be nice to run him out there for Wilson instead of Berrios/Smith/Cager types. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would love to keep Crowder..... just not at the expense of other holes being filled.I don’t know where were at Cap Wise but I would hope JD would not let that prevent him from picking up a Nelson or Sherman or Houston or Ingram. Crowder would be an excellent pro for Moore to watch and pattern after. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Free up another $5M by cutting Lewis and we have $17M to spend. Plenty to add one or two vets and keep Crowder. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lith Posted May 3, 2021 Share Posted May 3, 2021 With all of our draft captial and the state of our TE room, I would be willing to send a 5 or 6 to Atl for Hurst. And then pay for his salary by releasing Griffin. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do think it takes to sign Nelson (3/$21m) or Sherman (2/$11m)? Ingram (2/$11)? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no sense for what these guys could get. I woudl prefer Sherman on a 1-year deal if we can get him. Nelson is young enough for 3 years as long as we could get out of it painlessly after 2. At this stage of FA, I am not sure what these guys would go for. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

derp Posted May 3, 2021 Share Posted May 3, 2021 3 minutes ago, Lith said: In an interview I read with Jenkins he was pretty clear that he was more comfortable on the right side than the left and working to try to get there on the left side. I don’t think anybody would say no to potential LT money but I remember thinking he seemed like he’d be perfectly happy to get plopped at RT for a decade and would be more risky moved to the left side. So this is interesting. Loved the Fields trade up for them but feel like Pace can’t get out of his own way sometimes. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’ve got some cap room to maybe take on some stuff if it’ll help as a bridge. Also with the new scheme I feel like Fatukasi and Shepherd would be better used by teams doing something different. Crowder too honestly. There are definitely several useful guys who would probably benefit from a change of scenery, could open up roster spots for a younger guy, and are expiring this year.

I know they are up against the cap and need to free up space to sign their draft class, but releasing a solid, experienced LT, right after drafting Fields is a bit surprising. Unless they intend to start Dalton and give Fields at least a partial reshirt season. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we drafted so many defensive backs that if we sign a veteran, we are essentially cutting a draft pick without even looking at him in training camp. Nor is Sherman coming in without some guarantees. I am sure such offers are already on his table. To me it is not the money, it is the roster spots. Yesterday they were there. Today they are not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SomebodytoAnybody47 Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 I don't think Sherman wants to come here. When he mentioned getting killed in taxes and such being here in NY/NJ, that seemed like a good hint that it's not worth it for him for a short stint.

Agree with this. Feel similarly about Crowder. Did not see Moore as his replacement, but if Mims, Moore and Cole have good camp and show real promise, Crowder becomes expendable. Agree, also that he was a bit of a disappointment last year but it was such a weird year that I would base what happens next on now forward, not looking back.
