The 2025 Free Agency Thread

[Faithful Fan]

Big ugly who can run block?

Yes please

And play center?

 

[Boone]

Yeah, I noted that.

Fowler getting 8M isn't surprising.

The Cowboys paying a free agent more than 6M/year IS. I think I read they hadn't paid a free agent more than 6M/year since like 2015 or something.

Wow....thats insane! 80 large tied up per year between him and MG. Add another 46 this year for Burrow?

Fine, we'll take Hendrickson for a fourth rounder and the Bengals fifth.

Lol, the Seahawks are signing all these dudes and didn't notice that Darnold can't play behind their garbage OL. He's definitely going to bomb.

 

[TTViper]

Lame, thought Kupp would at least try for a contender

 

[bowhunter]

If anyone says ‘great signing’ I’m immediately calling bullshit, lol.

You don’t know who that is - let’s be real!

I remember him being touted during the draft thread back then. Someone was pushing hard for him, enough so that even I remember. GREAT SIGNING!! Seriously... some nice OL talent starting to accumulate

The talk was, Kupp wanted to stay on the west coast if he could.

Looks like he did.

Really glad we didn't overpay on Kupp. $15 a year for someone whose at best a good WR3 right now is kind of nuts.

Definitely some crazy contracts have been passed out this year. No way Kupp is worth that much money.

Most of the NFL mediates said Kupp was going to get paid good coin but he's been injured a lot. Glad AP stayed away. I hope he plays a full season.

Herbig might’ve been a Hail Raiser guy back then, actually 🤔

 

[RedWolf]

I'm glad that they have paid attention to the trenches! 😍

 

[MartinC]

I’m kind of surprised that we haven’t extended Terry yet. That would give us significantly more wiggle room.

If Terrys agent is half awake he will want to wait until the Chase deal gets done with the Bengals. Not that Terry will get what Chase gets but that deal will reset the whole WR market.

 

[DogofWar1]

I imagine AP calls Terry's agent once a day, and that that call goes straight to voicemail (for now).

The DK Metcalf/AJ Brown recent extensions are the floor & ceiling of Terry's extension.

He's 2 years older than both of them. I hope they pull the grandpa card on him and get a rebate!

i believe they were all the same draft though, so in terms of tenure, they're the same

I actually think 15mil a year for Kupp is a pretty good deal. He is a low end #1 and his biggest weakness is staying healthy. It’s all about the guarantees. Probably 30mil
Metcalf deal is a joke. I lost respect for Tomlin after such a stupid overpay.
