[Abe Sargent]

The 2042 NFL Offseason:

I have on my roster 53, the old ones are Fiste – year 14, NT Halapin – year 12, four year 11 – Festa, Planish, Howells and LS Walsh, no 10, one 9 – RT Wang. I end the year and…none retire!!!

I score a 65….get ready!!!!!

The 2042 NFL Hall of Fame:

OG Lonne Montano - 2 All Pros, 3 Rings, career stats – 521 KRB, 50 pancakes, 83 sacks allowed, drafted 38th in the 2nd, by us. 83% vote.

This is awesome since he’s my first voted in draftee. I inherited Jaycee Horn, great, and WR Xavier Legette was the 1.32 rookie, drafted by another. Now we have three!!!

Other entries – RB Carter Trejo, WR Puca Nacua and Marvin Harrison and Lee Gillespie, QB Anthony Richardson and Jalen Hurts, TE Elijah Takeda, and OLB Alfonso Boynton

Tix – We sold out and I raise prices again

Staff Draft:

Coming Free next year are OC Nick Chubb. I extend him.

Draft Revealed:

It’s bad that Fiste is not returning, this is a four QB draft. We used to early on half a 5 or 6 QB, then three when I drafted our 1st round bust Plamondon. Then a couple years of no Qb, then about one or two. This year the four are 9.3 Shannon Valle, underrated, Asante Herrick, 8.6 and hard to read, Kareem Satterfield at 8.0 and as scouted, and 8.0 overrated Jamie Sweet. We still need a stud NT/DE, RB for Hutchings, and maybe a better RT for Wang who aged fast, maybe WILB for Howells. Or just BAP where studs. We are drafting at 1.27.

The talent? Three stud 7+ Rb, 7.9 Landen Erikson is underrated, 7.3 Colt Cotella is hard to read and Jessie Hanner at 7.0 is also hard to read. Then just three 6.0. There is a 6.0 rated TE named Stan Stribling at hard to read. Just one 6.5 WR, no good C, 6.0 OG, that’s it, and at OT? LT 7.4 and three RTs in the high 6.0s, then another 6 in the 6s. At DE there are two at 7.4 and 7.1, but none in the 6.s that’s top heavy. DT has the highest non-QB in the draft at 8.0, then a 7.5 7 6.s ILB for Howells we have 6 6.0s, and then just two in OLB side. At CB just five lower rated 6.0 and S one 7.1 stud and that’s it. in the 7. A8 and 9s, there are 13, but five are QB and three are RB, one LT so offensive heavy. That means the top 13 are guaranteed a strong blue chip high rated player.

Tag? I have free many. QB Fiste, RB Hutchings, DE Suazo, OG Flores, that all wanted too much to resign last year, as well as temp patch NT Halapin. I don’t cap any, I’ll resign Day 1.

[Abe Sargent]

The 2042 NFL Free Agency:

I have 42 signed and cap space of 73.63 I tried to keep the cap space free last year.

Day 1 –

Coming Free I need to reup:

QB Harold Fiste – Duh. He wants 2 years, 106.440 cash cap hit of 48.17. I have to do it, he’s my stud. Done.

DE Suazo – Wants 2 years, 13.43 mill, cap hit of 5.99
RB Hutchings – Wants 3 years for 15.87, cap hit of 4.61
OG Flores – Wants 16.91 over three years for 4.74 cap hit

Also coming free not being extended are QB Winsor, WR Sluder ,LT Lopez, OG Hopkins TE Eades.

Rookies Coming Up:

SILB McMorris – Cap hit of 2.95, 69/69, wants 63.67 over 4 years for cap hit rise of 12.34

FB Blake – 62/62, cap hit of 2.42, wants 4.48 two years, cap hit rise, barely to 2.51, Done.

DE Schaaf – 53/53, run stopping, cap hit of 2.31 wants professional pricey 5 years at 53.73 for cap hit raise to 7.83. No thanks. Too pricecy, see Suazo last year, maybe he’ll drop his price if waiting until his rookie deal is done

Players in Final Year to Resign:

OC Justin Nguyen – 47/60 – UFA should I trade to get full value since Festa returned?
K Brotherton – 69/69 – cap hit 7.04, wants 22.93 for three years, cap hit of 7.0 this year too.. Done
WR Jackson – 77/77, cap hit of 47.66, wants 73.13 mill for two to drop cap hit this year to 37.69. Done.
WLB Breeden – 75/75, cap hit of 42.95, wants two years at 56.53 for cap hit drop to 30.60, done
OG Planish – 58/58, cap hit of 12.98, wants two years at 23.46 to rise to 13.3. Done
OC Festa – 61/61, cap hit of 10.97, wants two years at 19.98 to raise to 11.37 done
RT Wang – 50/50, cap hit of 21.28, wants 2 years at 27.27 for reduction to 17.15. Nope, too pricey and big fall in ability
WILB Howells – 53/53, cap hit of 8.95. wants two years at 9.73 to drop to raise to 9.12. I’ll let him play out his deal, see if I can find someone in the draft.
CB Downs – 58/58, cap hit of 14.61, wants two year at 22.73 to drop to 12.73. Sure thing, done
WR Drury - 60/60, cap hit of 10.41, wants real money, 2 years 45.52 cap rise to 22.07. remember he wa the cheap option we chased a few years ago. I don’t resign.

I extend LS Walsh.

Do I resign Suazo or Flores or Hutchings? I have free 48.69 so around 38 mill. To resign them all is a cap hit this year of them all is around 13.3 and McMorris is 10 mill, l can do both and have free for FA 15 mill. Or extend Drury and 3 mill. Ideally I would resign all three, and then look for better options in the draft and then cut, especially Hutchings. I do it all and McMorris too. I have left 23.93 mill, so around 13 mill for FA, but I have 46 signed and a draft with 7 picks, one comp late but missing a third.

What can I get for OC Nguyen? Three fourths from New England, one future, two this year done.

Now I have 9 picks, but missing late 3rd but with two fourths and 45 on my roster. Do I resign Nguyen , or add WR to my draft list? I’ll wait until post draft. I’ll keep my money tight, for that.

Anyone else I want to resign before Day 2? Nope. I head to FA!!!

Day 2 – Anyone I like here? There are cheap mid 50s young TE and with Eades leaving, I need TE. One is TE Griffin Brase, 56/56, age 28, wants 14.48 3 years cap hit of 4.17. Not bad, but not with my cap free for Drury post deal.

Any upgrades with my cash instead of resigning Drury or I can sign and then cut for their fees?

RT Emmanual Fillman – 5th year vet, age 27, 63/63, wants 4 years for 79.47, cap hit of 14.88 this year and then Wang’s cut would free up 17.1 to pay for the first year. Do I want to do that?

If I sign Fillman I’ll fill RT permanently, no draftable. I need starter/upgrades at RT, WILB, DT, DE, RB and OG for Flores. This year is deep in RT for Wang though. I’d hate to sign him and have stud OT at the spot. But I’d also hate no good RT and I didn’t sign Fillman. I offer Fillman 15.5 cap hit.

Day 4 – Fillman signs, I cut Wang

Draft time!!!
