The 2032 NFC South:

Carolina Panthers, 16-1, Champ
New Orleans – 10-7, WC
Atlanta 6-11
Tampa Bay, 3-14


We accomplished our #1 seed instead of wildcard,that was the only time we made it to the Super Bowl, and we lost…now? Can we head back and win? Let’s find out!!!

[Abe Sargent]

The 2032 NFL Playoffs:


Wild Card Weekend:

Since the Eagles beat us by one at our place, I’d like them to get knocked out, and we lost to Chicago last year.

Results:

Bills over Jags 33-30
Browns over Steelers 20-14
Chiefs over Colts 33-13

Bears over Pack 23-9 - bad
Saints over Eagles – nice!
Seahawks over Lions 13-6

We host the Saints. They owe us and are a better team, and they just beat the Super Bowl winning team at home as a WC which we could a few years ago.


Divisional Champion Weekend:

Can we go 3-0 against the Saints this year? I’d love that to happen and then the Seahawks knockout the Bears. We win a close and high scoring 38-30.

Fiste is 24 o’ 36, 243 and 4:0. TDs by Sternberger, Bruseloff, Currie and Gonzalez.
S O’Shea PR RET TD!!!
FF by Winfield and recc bu DT Graham
A pair of sacks by Tae
4 KRBby Festa, 3 by Montnao


The bad news is that all home teams won

Chicago 36-10 over Seahawks

Raiders over Browns 25-13
Bills over Chiefs 33-17


The Conference Championship:

We host the 14-3 Bears who beat us in the playoffs last year, revenge!!!

We win a lower score 23-21.

Berton 15 for 116; Fiste 17 of 23 166 and 2:0. Scores by Sibley and Sternberger! Pick by Horn jus tone sack, 6 KRb byFEsta 3 by Montano


Also the Bills won the road 36-33. We’ll be getting the rough and nasty Josh Allen in a Super Bowl. He’s still a strong QB in the league at 65/65.


The 2032 NFL Super Bowl:

Your #2 Seed 11-6 AFC Champion Buffalo Bills

Vs

Your #1 Seed 16-1 NFC Champion Carolina Panthers


Can we win our first Championship in our dynasty, Fiste’s career and ever? Last time it was Patrick Mahomes we faced, this time…Josh Allen and….we win with a normal game score of 24-16.

Fiste was 1 rush score, 25 of 32, 266 and 2;0. Catching was Bruseloff and Gonzalez.
Pick by Winfield, 5 KRB bby Montano, 4 each by rookie Young and Bailey.


It’ll be rough to go against the Saints again next year who won the last three years, but we took our window of opportunity!!!

RB Burton – 234 for 1166, ypc of 4.98, 6 score, 9th best rush yards

WR Gonzalez – 52 for 892, 12 scores
TE Bruseloff – 69 for 580, 6 scores,

OG Montano – 65 KRB, 10 pancakes, 3 sacks allowed
OG Robert, 51 KRB, 5 and 2 sacks
OC Festa – 42 KRB, 3 and 3 sacks

See why Howells should have gotten 2nd? Sacks!!! McKendrick 2nd on sacks. DE Salazar 4, Kidder 3.5 in rotation, and ILB Cashman a rare 3 sacks and 2 FF better than normal. Good sack year!

Coverage:

CB Horn – 3 picks as dimeback, 5 padef
CB Smith-Wade 2 and 9
S Meade – 2 and 1
CB Caputo – 1 and 16 pasdef led team

Bad year here, to be expected with talent drop.

[Abe Sargent]

The 2033 NFL Early Free Agency:

Day 1 – I have in cash free 38.05 mill. I have on my roster 37 and up to 51 free.

Who do I want to make offers to that are gone:

WR Sternberger wants too much – 59.8 over three years
WR Sibley- We sign to minsal, one year
TE McAlister -
TE Pitts – At 46/46 wants 3.61 this year. 13 year vet, should I spend or keep? Let’s look at extensions first.
FS O’Shea – We sign to 6.26 for 2 years, cap hit this year of 2.92
LS Deckers – 2 years 3.05 mill
CB Caputo – wants 8.9 for 2years, cap hit of 4.18, I hold off until extensions
LB MacMillian – Wants 8.58 for 2 yers, cap hit of 3.85, I holdoff until extensions

I need money to chase WR, WLB, CB and SS.

Extensions:

OG Montano – Cap hit of 11.88 wants two years, 18.05, same cap hit this year, done
CB Smith-Wade – Cap hit of 4.99, wants 2 at 8.2, this year 4.75. done
TE Bruseloff – Wants 2 years at 19.8 for 5 mill cap hit, no thanks
LG Robert – Cap hit of 16.4, wants 2 year deal for 22.4, cap drop to 12.03. Done!
DE Hockenhull – Cap hit of 11.56. Wants 26.3 mill and raise to 12.54. he’s so solid and consistent I do it.
DE Salazar – Cap hit 3.82; wants 10.39 for 3.28. pass rush of 63 Signed.
DE Kidder – Cap hit of 4.7, pass rush of 62,w ants 2 years at 7.45 Hit of 4.41, dropped to 40/40, will let go.
DE McKendrick – 61/61, rookie, cap hit of 2.64, wants 53.29 for four years, cap hit of 10.56. Done.

WR Legette – 50/50, age 32, 10 year vet, cap hit of 19.11, wants 28.11, drop hit to 15.7. But he dropped, will he want the same? Should I let him finish or cut and resign tomorrow like I did with Winfield? I would free by cutting him 16.24. I hold off to see later, if I can just extend or cut him after what my cap looks like.


For Pitts, Caputo and MacMillian, Legette I have 28.58 and around 19 mill left in the kitty. If I resigned all three, total this year of 11.64 and then extended Legette and saved 3.41 mill, that would be left 8.23 off 19 so around 11 mill left. That’s not much for a renovated 2ndary and WR corps. I cut Legette. If he’s too pricey or signs elsewhere, I can use that cash. He won his Super Bowl. I resign the three. I have left 33.36. Around 24 mill for FAs

Day 2 –

WR Legette wants 12.34 mil for 2 years, cap hit this year of 5.75. I offer up to 6.0. 18 mill left

WR is deep but high value stuff. Three are in the low 50s. I need to replace Sternberger and then also others. I cut WLB Streb and free up 15 mill. That gives me 47.63. and 32 after Legette to chase better WRs

The best young one:

WR Ken Buysse - 63/63 - 7th year vet, age 28, wants 59.45 mill for 3 years, cap hit this year of 16.5

Or

WR Duke Daniel – 7th year vet, age 27, 62/62, wants 54.14 mill 3 years, cap hit of 15.07

Daniel is just one worse and a year younger. If I offered Daniel for 15.5, that would leave free 16.5 mill for others

What about Ss? With Winfield retiring, I only have FS on my roster, and that’s 43/43 Meade.

SS Ronald Van Dusan – 8th year vet, age 28, 64/64 The top SS, wants 37.83 for three years, cap hit this one of 10.7.

He’s a temporary measure, but a younger 8th year.

Also free at SS and not retirement age is 55/55 Troy Kisner, who wants 2 20.59 cap hit of 9.5 and is 26.

The budget option:

SS Jeffery Albert – Age 27 5th year, 54/54, wants 11.22 for three years, cap hit of 3.16

Albert is just one year younger than Van Dusan though.

FS to replace Holland or Meade?

FS Butch Lebowitz – 7th year, age 29, 55/55, wants 3 for 31.45 cap hit of 8.89.

The only budget “young” option is:

FS JJ Arana - 8th year, 51/51,wants 9.78 for 3 years, cap hit of 2.9.

If I offer Arana as a cheap backup at 3.2 or starter based on the draft, SS Van Dusan at 11 and Daniel at 16, that’s 30.2 used offered. That uses up most of my cap space,

What about cheap WLB?

WLB Asher Robinson - Age? 27 5tth year, 53/53, pass rush of 77, str of 69, wants 37.5 mil for 3 and cap hit of 10 mill.

There are no good cheap young pass rushers that are well rounded…

WLB Kaden Bednarski – 51/51, All Pro last year, age 25, 5th year vet, pass rush of 84, str of 100, 46 run def, wants 3 years and 13.91 and cap hit of 3.88. Nasty good.

That would let SLB Howells play his natural position at SLB by my staff I am sure. Last year he had 12 sacks, just like Howells. And in 2031 too, as well as two 9.5 sacks years as 1st and 2nd year player. In four years he has 43 sacks. I do like him, if I offered him 4.25, I could bring in SS Albert instead, that’s leave me around 8.5 after the draft.

I offer Van Dusan, Arana, Bednarski and Daniel

Day 7 – Bednarski signs for much less elsewhere.

Day 9 – WR Daniel signs!

Day 10 – FS Arana joins

Day 13 – Legette and Van Dusan sign!

I head to the draft
