3/18 @4pm NFL Free Agency & Trading Period

[KI Skins Fan]

IMO Tre Boston is a perfect fit for the Skins. On the other hand, Bradberry isn't even a league-average CB.

[AnonEmouse]

Agree, I'd Like us to get Boston, but if Bradberry isn't too expensive I'd still bring him in. We can't fill all the gaps in one off-season, but if we get Young, a 2nd TE (assuming we can sign Hooper or Henry) WR and OL depth in the draft, then we need a FS and CB in FA too.

Falcons to let Austin Hooper and De’Vondre Campbell test free agency

Hooper to officially hit the market. Also, Devondre Campbell is an under the radar OLB Free Agent if we were looking to upgrade.

On Dan Patrick show, Per McLovin heard the Cowboys were letting Byron Jones CB hit the market

Wow, I was wrong. i didnt think Hooper would be free. I knew they were in cap purgatory but their beat writers seems convinced they could make room for him.

Clear hurdle one. Now can we beat out NE and others while also not over paying?

And in 2 years his deal will be a bargain when TE’s are making $15M plus

1. Byron Jones (best CB available and still young)
2. Hooper (should be cheaper than Henry)
3. Re-sign both G's.
4. Re-Sign Dunbar
5. Tre Boston

I think you can sign all of these guys and immediately make big strides in the division.

Some will say Jones is too expensive but he's a long athletic CB like Dunbar that can cover any WR.. Fuller is a slot guy at best, we already have that in Fabian and Moreland

Per Spotrac, Hooper’s projected market value in 2020 is a yearly salary of approximately $9.9 million. Based on his recent performance coupled with the current tight end market, Spotrac has Hooper signing something similar to a five-year, 49.9 million contract next season. The Bears could absolutely swing that, especially after their recent roster moves.

F the Bears. They have $27M in cap space while we have twice that amount. We can and should go hard after Hooper. I don't care what the Bears do. The Bears can have our FA leftovers.

How hard do we go?

https://overthecap.com/position/tight-end/

10M for Jimmy Graham is the top AAV for a TE. market seems weird, only 3 making more than 9M AAV, 6 making 8M AAV or more .. but they are all older.

Henry and Hooper are 25. I dont think you can use a 34 year old Jimmy G, or 31 year old Kelce, Ertz, Rudolph etc as comparables.

Dang, the TE market may take a huge jump with two 25 old year players entering FA with teams in demand (assuming Henry makes FA).
---------------------

Legit may take 13M or so to get one these two. Looking at the age of the other top tier TEs and the fact that both of these two can block and catch .... FA is going to be crazy this year.

Kevin Sheehan reporting from sources:

Skins will target 3 high profile Free Agents IF they become available:

1. Austin Hooper - Obvious

2. Kenyan Drake - WTF....I like the guy but why bring back AP. Or even draft Love last year?

3. Amari Cooper - Makes sense

Rivera didn't draft Love, and let's be honest, DG, CT, BL, all with injury histories. I have zero issue bringing in a RB.

Totally get it. Look rb is the most injuried position in the game. I like drake a lot...just depends on the contract imo.

I’d like us to take care of our guys as well and like to know the Oline plan with so many questions there before you give several huge deal for skill players.

Nice find Chico. Hopefully vets start getting cut and leaks start sprouting. Im ready for some news ... or unverified leaks at this point.

I want Hoop,fine with Drake .... will have to find a way to convince myself to like Amari Cooper if he comes here.

I had heard Cooper for a couple weeks now, It makes perfect sense and would be a HUGE sign for us. Can you imagine Terry and Amari together? Yikes.

Hooper for sure and Drake is a all purpose back that can catch it well, Turner loves those guys
