I swear...if I see another report about a frickin' safety getting 14 million a year..
Holy Mary, Mother of...
What is happening? These contracts had better have the most ridiculous escalator clauses in them.

Report: Ravens up offer to C.J. Mosley, but still trail othersPosted by Josh Alper on March 11, 2019, 7:29 PM EDT Linebacker C.J. Mosley is one of three players on our list of the top 100 free agents who has not agreed to a deal with a new team or been franchise tagged by his current team and the Ravens are reportedly working to keep him from leaving Baltimore. Jeff Zrebiec of TheAthletic.com reports that the Ravens have “sweetened” their offer to Mosley over the course of the day. They may need more sugar in order to bring it home, though. Zrebiec reports that the offer still lags behind what other teams have put on the table. The report specifically names the Jets as a team that has made a higher bid for Mosley and leaves open the possibility that other teams are also topping Baltimore’s latest offer. Earlier reports on Monday named Washington, Indianapolis, Cleveland, Detroit and Philadelphia as other interested parties. https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/20...l-trail-others/

Mathieu is a little bit of a different case because he is so versatile (plus he is said to be a great leader). I still wouldn’t want to pay him that much.

I'm serious, man.
The franchise tag for safeties this year "was" 11.2 million. It's about to go up 3 million in one day

I think when free agency is happening it is like "limited time offer call now".
Mosley was a great college player. He has been outstanding in his first 4 years as a pro.
It is only because of the Ravens cap space that he was not signed or franchised.
He is going to get the money but this guy could really help us. He is difference maker on defense.

Link “Buster Skrine to the Bears. It’s a 3-year deal worth $16.5M with $8.5M guaranteed, source said.” Buster is a Chattanooga Moc.....good for him. I root for the local team and guys.

Id almost rather us do nothing in FA if these are the kinds of contracts being thrown around... i can't think of single player that got what his production level says he should. we'd be better off trying to trade some of our draft capital on proven guys

This is just ridiculous... and another reason I do not expect us to make big splashes, because these are crazy cannonball splashes.
There's a DT from the Cards and a TE from the Chiefs that I expect us to look at. Athletic TE that had low numbers because he was behind Kelce. Should be able to take Fells' spot easily. The DT isn't a huge pressure guy, but super stout against the run and should be familiar with our DC.
Browns is the Browns
... there goes Joe Thomas, the best there ever was in this game.

You act like two years ago he wanted to retire from football because he wasn't enjoying it or something.

Damarious Randall likes seeing those big contracts... Some thoughts: --I have always had a problem w/qbs who are not accurate or process information quickly. --Likewise, I have a problem w/receivers who can't catch or RBs who have poor vision. --I have a big problem w/DBs who can't cover.The deals for guys like Collins and Mathieu are absurd. --Final thought. We better draft a FS. Randall will be gone as soon as he can. Dude is a head case and no way will he stay here for a fair contract. He'll be out to be break the bank. That's his right. It's also our right to start looking for his replacement.

They're seeing all these mid eight-figure contracts and thinking #metoo.

I was listening to moving the chains on my drive home today and Pat Kirwin said he thought Williams would end up signing for $10-12 million/year

Wow. Interesting.
In some free agent rankings he was way down the list.
Free agency is the definition of Fair Market Value.

Sounds like Bell is torn between the Jets and Raiders possibly Philly
If he doesnt decide, the Jets will get mosley and Bell will get a smaller contract.

Gawd, those two would cost a fortune. Yep, gotta guess Williams is in the 10-12m/yr range and Mosely 11-13/yr range. Though with the deals we're seeing already, those might be low.

He has no specific ties to Cleveland, having grown up in Texas and playing in Columbus. And I don't believe any of his college teammates are on the team. If he's tight with Denzel, we may have an advantage. Team on the rise is an advantage.
From our perspective, I don't see why we wouldn't have interest - though he'll be a pretty penny - what does a starting CB run these days - maybe 13 or 14m/year (unless he'll play nickle, then lower)?

Raiders agreed to terms with S Lamarcus Joyner, formerly of the Rams, on a four-year contract. Joyner played on the Rams' franchise tag last season after a breakout 2017 campaign. His impact was barely felt in 2018, however, as fellow S John Johnson seemed to outplay Joyner every step of the way. The Rams seemed to have zero interest in bringing Joyner back, instead pouncing on Eric Weddle as his replacement. Joyner does have playmaker skills and versatility, having played deep safety and nickel corner in the pros. He even played some dime linebacker in college at Florida State. Joyner will slide in next to former first-round S Karl Joseph in Oakland. RELATED: Los Angeles Rams Mar 11, 2019, 10:00 PM https://www.rotoworld.com

Broncos agreed to terms with DB Kareem Jackson, formerly of the Texans, on a three-year contract. Jackson, 31 next month, is another key member of the Texans' defensive backfield bolting town, after CB Kevin Johnson signed with the Bills and Tyrann Mathieu the Chiefs earlier Monday. Jackson has experience playing outside corner, nickel corner, and free safety. He has plenty of versatility but is probably ticketed for safety in Denver. Jackson had a huge game in Denver last season, which probably led to the Broncos liking him even more. RELATED: Houston Texans Mar 11, 2019, 9:11 PM https://www.rotoworld.com
