Outside the Box Offseason

[Jclayton92]

Outside the box but possibly great NFL Offseason-

Free Agency-

QB Aaron Rodgers- The Bridge for a Qb in 2026

RB Ty Johnson- Depth, kid played his ass off on a 1 million deal, and can be the spell to Tracey.

Wr Josh Palmer- Steady boundary Wr with Slayton production.

RG Will Fries- coming off the injury he is still the best RG and we grab him here.

Swing tackle Jedrick Wills- Swing Tackle

DT Tershawn Wharton- Young enough DT that holds up well in the run and pass. Would love Milton Williams here but QB and CB1 are my splurges here.

CB Paulson Adebo- Has more upside than any corner in FA and he gets turnovers. Coming off the leg injury he could also be cheaper and he's easily the youngest high level cb on the market.

NFL Draft-
Giants trade 1.03 to the Raiders for them to select Shedeur Sanders. Giants get 1.06, 2.04(37), and 4.06(107) in return.

#6 Tyler Warren TE Penn St Could be a top 3-5 TE year 1 like Bowers last year.

#34 Walter Nolen DL Ole Miss- kid is a monster, and physical freak, stood out on an elite dline, and disrupted the pass and run.

#37 Nick Emmanwori S South Carolina- 6'3 227lb freak, 4.38-second 40-yard dash at that weight, along with a 43-inch vertical jump and an 11-foot-6 broad jump. Only safety to hit those benchmarks ever at the combine. Oh and 159 tackles, 11Pd, 2tds, and 6ints the past two years.

#65 Jack Sawyer Edge Ohio St- 3rd rotational edge that can disrupt games when it matters.

#107 Kyle McCord QB Syracuse- 2nd String Qb that we can develop.

#134 Poo Paul MLB Ole Miss- A pit bull, aggressive hard hitting sideline to sideline modern MLB. The nasty to pair with Okereke's finesse.

#155 Denzel Burke CB Ohio St. Had an up and down career at Ohio St but flashed elite traits.

I think with thos free agency and Draft that it would be completely different than most have envisioned for this team but could put us Right there competing immediately in the NFC. It stacks us up with young talent, and almost completes an entire defense, while giving us a great 1, 2 punch at RB, a potential top 5 WR1, and TE, with complimentary receiving prices, and a solid oline with depth. So you get this team experience, and go all in on Arch, Sellers, Nico Lamaleava, or whoever in 2026 with a ready made offense that might need an Elite WR2 but besides that is set with young talent and you have a ready made defense with an elite dline, and great secondary to Compliment that line.

So do you have any outside the box picks or signings? Would you be happy with this offseason?

Outside the box but possibly great NFL Offseason-

J: Great work; must have taken hours; comprehensive.

I particularly like the draft.

If only.... lol

Wow. Very well put together.

A couple of questions:
1) at 6 overall do you think there will be no shutdown corner available?
2) do you see a scenario where a trade down could also include a 2026 1st round pick?
IE When we Traded Rivers for Eli it was our 4th overall for their 1st overall and we gave up a 1st the following year.

Jess - lots of time out into it.

Free Agency - unless you know roughly market value of each FA you picked, how do you know if they fit within a team's budget and whether that amount gets them to come over?

Draft - those picks look too much like PFN Mick Draft Simulator which I think is a lagging indicator of where players will actually get drafted.  I think Walter Nolen and Nick Emmanwori have gotten themselves into the late first round.  Jack Sawyer is probably second round with his production.
