Fa Wishlist For 2016

Recommended Posts

Yeh its the time of year where our record is terrible and playoff hopes are melting away... So time to put on our Madden GM hats and play hypotheticals to keep ourselves sane.

Yes this list is going to change drastically but some of these guys will hit the market.

First and foremost, the SECOND FA opens we need to call up Bruce Irvin and get it done. Beasley may actually be able to get work done if we have Irvin too.

At LB getting Derrick Johnson on a short deal.

At safety if Eric Berry or Weddle hit the market Blank better brush off his Bones' frequent diner cards.

On OL would be amazing if we could land Osemele or Yanda if Baltimore doesn't re-sign both, Wisnewski frm JAX at center..

Obviously we can't get all of them even if they all hit the market, but if we could snag 2-3 on reasonable deals with a big splash being an Eric Berry or Yanda, then go MLB, WR, OG in the draft.

These are the best likely FA in my opinion

Alex Mack, OC Cleveland

Kelechi Osemele, OG Baltimore

JR Sweezy, OG Seattle

Stefen Wisniewski, OC Jacksonville

George Iloka, SS Cincinnati

Tony Jefferson, SS Arizona (RFA)

Vinny Curry, DE Philadelphia

Jacquies Smith, DE Tampa Bay

Olivier Vernon, DE Miami

Derek Wolfe, DL Denver

Malik Jackson, DL Denver

Derrick Johnson, LB Kansas City

Bruce Irvin, LB Seattle

Marvin Jones, WR Cincinnati

Rishard Matthews, WR Miami

Kamar Aiken, WR Baltimore

The bolded ones are who I want the most.

Think we really need to grab a SS, WR, LB, and a DL in FA. Cincinnati and Miami are in tough situations with their cap room, Miami because they don't have much and Cincinnati because they have so many people to resign. This is a bad SS class in my opinion, same with DE so we must grab one of each in FA.

SS - Would love Tony Jefferson because Arizona has a stacked Safety core but they will likely tender and match any offers. George Iloka is just an great player too, he's almost a priority at the right price though.

DL - Derek Wolfe and Malik Jackson would be nice additions and I doubt they can keep both especially with Von Miller. Olivier Vernon may not be able to be retained in Miami, and he would help out tremendously. He and Vinny Curry would be great for us and Curry will likely be cheap.

OG - We must sign Kelechi Osemele at all costs, he's a great player and would fit our scheme perfectly.

LB - Bruce Irvin, I mean I like the guy but he's not a priority guy for me. He will be 29 halfway through next season. Derrick Johnson, another older guy but he's still playing amazing. Might command too much money though.

Bruce Irvin already let it be known that he wants to play for Quinn, so let's honor his wish... He's an older guy but we could use someone like him who has had success to show the others how it's done... Plus he should already be familiar with Quinn and his system and will be a valued asset and instant leadership on a defense that sorely needs it. Let's give him an incentive based contract though and not blow it all up front.

I don't care what it costs we need to bring Alex Mack here... We need a center desperately.

Olivier Vernon is also a must sign! I think him and Beasley on the edge would be disruptive along with Irvin... That would be great!

Yeh agree with Irvin too, if we can score Irvin and Mack/Osmele as big splashes that'd be significant improvements.

Keep realistic thoughts or Irvin. He said I want to play for Quinn, but in the wrold of athletes, that means " I want to play for Quinn as long as he pays me as much as the other guy will."

This is his first veteran contract, and he will be 29. He isnt going to leave money on the table, nor should he.

I would take him if it meant Reed going to MLb and Irvin or Beasley playing SLB.

That said, I would rather we left Reed at SLB, signed Danny Travathan for MLB, and drafted a WLB in th first two rounds.

Well, like half our our lines are free agents after the year. That and they basically suck.

Person is still signed, but should only compete at G.

Schreader is UFA, I hope he is re-signed. Good RT.

Chester is UFA...good bye! Upgrade RG.

We have Matthews and Levitre basically set to come back, and Person who isnt a lock as a starter.

On the DL, beasley should be moved to SLB, Clayborn and Schofield are UFA. Babs is a ? If he will be retained. Jackson should be released. Goodman is irrelevent.

We have Soliai, Hageman, Jarrett as guys I would count on returning. I do think we resign Clayborn and Schofield though.

Asomoah is still under contract, still relatively young, and when healthy is a fantastic G especially in a ZBS like he was in at KC.

We need an upgrade at C for sure, and possibly/probably RT.

As for the DL, I've been on the Vinny Curry bandwagon for years. I was pretty vocal about hoping we'd draft him, and then again when Philly was dangling him as trade bait the past two seasons. The guy is a pass rushing monster when used properly. I really would love to see him on this team.

I wanted us to draft both Curry & Iloka, and would be thrilled if either or both became Falcons.

Yanda is already signed. If we can sign a few of these guys I'll be excited:

Eric Berry, George Iloka, Bruce Irvin, Danny Treveathen, Derek Wolfe, Keleche Osemele, Ladaruis Green, Dwyane Allen, Coby Fleener, Alex Mack, and Oliver Vernon. I'm probably forgetting someone. But any combination of those guys will be a big help.

I like the idea of Mack but we're either going to have to throw a ton of money at him in FA or trade for him.

Maybe the Saints cut Unger in the offseason in order to get under the cap...

Crabtree will be resigned by Oakland IMO, but if we are talking about another young WR to help out Julio, then I like Marvin Jones in Cincinnati. He is still young and he actually has decent hands. Just needs to work on his routes a little bit, but he could work under the tutelage of Julio and become a more complete wide out. Jackson and Curry are good pass rushers and that is what we need almost much as a decent right guard and center.

We already have the RG. Asamoah will be back healthy & is a good one.

We do need a C & possibly RT though.
