The 2026 Free Agency Thread

I never should have said my bar for success was not having to go to Pro Football Reference to figure out who the hell the player is. And that dream is already blown, lol...

 

[KDawg]

I’m not a PFF guy but… 110 of 114 isn’t good.

Oh well, TUNSIL!

 

[HOF44]

Peters reaching for players.

 

[Bulldog]

Again, his PFF score of 48.6 ranked 110th at the CB position, 30 slots LOWER than Trey Amos.

Detroit's secondary has not exactly been one of its strongest position groups in recent seasons.

Shutdown Jefferson and got a pick against Chase last year

 

[Boone]

Does he have nice hair?

 

[heisenberg]

Tunsil.

I don’t understand why more people weren’t worried and I don’t understand why people aren’t amped as hell for this. This is huge.

We need more - Tunsil was with us last season. But we made positive on the trade and that is a pretty good move.

Im happy about it but the timing is a little curious.

It feels like they announced this right as free agent frenzy started to blunt the criticism of a possible lackluster free agency.

I hope im wrong.

 

[Bulldog]

This move seems more like a secondary type signing that comes a few days after the start of free agency.

I heard the sizzle but evidently Peters doesn't have any steaks on the grill.

Ok, I’m sold. 🤣

I am not losing any sleep over what PFF has to say. I will try to find some film to watch in him. The CB market is pretty shitty this FA period though. Just a rotational guy in the end.

 

[HTTR]

So, while all the big names are signing elsewhere, we are diving to the bottom of the dumpster for one of the worst corners in the league and giving him a two-year deal?? Greaaaaaaaat

 

[skinsinparadise]

Slot corner, at least judging by PFF scores, was good, but off year last season. It feels very 2025 type signing. It's fine if another signing at CB is coming but if that's it, meh.

 

[HOF44]

We are going to carry over a bunch of cap again. Aren’t we??

Emmanuel Forbes was ranked 93rd, lol...

 

[bifflog]

If you care to look beyond PFF, played out of position due to attrition the last 2 seasons...

 

[CuredFromBatteredFanSyndrome]

Doesn't bother me. I kept hearing Pearce and Daniel Jones are BFFs. As close as Jayden is with Aiyuk and he wanted to stay.

Odd horse to hitch your wagon to is all I’m saying. 😂 Especially a horse that just had a bad injury.

 

[Chris]

Worst Christmas morning ever (so far).

Concerning for sure. I am not sure Josh Harris is willing to spend what it takes. At least his history so far says that. Hope I am wrong.

If he is a slot corner, does that give hope that Sainristil is going to be staying at outside CB like he did in 2024?
