Even with his price tag being such a key favorable part of trading for him last season. Hindsight now clearly shows that the smart move would have been extending Swift immediately instead. Swift just made the Pro Bowl. Can’t even picture Swift’s leverage growing any higher than it is right now.

March 1, 20241 yr Author OK since you made ME look it up Johnson,why would you spend a round 1 on A C if Kelce is going to play another year(or 2) I'm all for finding a nice C/G who can compete for the RG job,but there is zero way I spend a round 1 pick on one unless I have everything else I need(and we don't). Let another team waste their pick
March 1, 20241 yr 35 minutes ago, cunninghamtheman said: My feelings are this FA class of RB has good options for cheap. Some good hungry RBs that are just entering their prime. Several that have that Pro experience already. But haven’t broken out enough to command big money. Right.... at this point IMO the RB market is plentiful. This should keep costs down.
March 1, 20241 yr Author https://www.nflmockdraftdatabase.com/big-boards/2024/consensus-big-board-2024 This new board has Tampa at pick 50 right where I have him. They are off on the round 1 pick IMO

I will wait for the combine. He will either solidify his spot or he will fall further. There is something they are seeing that I am apparently missing

Swift just made the Pro Bowl. Can’t even picture Swift’s leverage growing any higher than it is right now. What leverage? There are tons of RB's on the loose in FA. Maybe we find a better one? Or maybe he understands what we offer is in the ballpark. I ,for one would like to retain him(Swift) and Gains,find another RB in FA and draft one also,but not high,round 5 is fine for a project
March 1, 20241 yr Author IMO RB's with leverage would be Barkley,or Pollard(or Henry,but he has alot of wear on him)

March 1, 20241 yr If you look up the names or watch any of the highlight clips I posted I’d think it was extremely clear what position he plays.

March 1, 20241 yr 4 hours ago, GreenbleedinNC said: Why would you extend him before you saw results?? Same type reasoning behind why they traded for him,
March 1, 20241 yr 4 hours ago, GreenbleedinNC said: SO what he didn't make the pro bowl and you extended him and he fell flat? That’s all a part of negotiations. Make good deals. Earlier you recognize quality the better.
March 1, 20241 yr 4 hours ago, GreenbleedinNC said: SO what he didn't make the pro bowl and you extended him and he fell flat? I don’t care much about him making the Pro Bowl. It just is a very obvious league wide notification of his value having climbed massively.

Let another team waste their pick Seems like we’ve spent a round two pick twice on C recently. That was with Kelce staying even.

Get the guy that doesn’t have the durability question marks that Dickerson fell over. Has much more upside than Cam.

Agreed...looking up stuff helps. You should do it when it comes to contracts and salary cap stuff before you make your posts about it, that are incorrect.
March 1, 20241 yr 22 minutes ago, cunninghamtheman said: It’s always much more expensive to pay guys after they’ve proven more worth league wide. Don't you think the players and agents feel the same and why some would prefer NOT to sign an extension until after they prove it?

Who gets paid out of the group of RBs? What do you think Swift gets? I think Sanders and Pollard contracts from last year.. along with the amount of RBs that are on the market bring the prices down. Just an awful contract for Carolina with Sanders .. and brutal 10 million tag for Pollard. Awful decisions by those teams that will cause some hesitation for teams to pay.
