Arizona with so much money invested in Murray goes with an offensive coach but after Kliff they go with an experienced coach. Indy I think sticks with Jeff Saturday or they’d hired someone. I mean they’ve had months to find someone.
Baltimore is going to have a rough go. If they franchise Lamar it isn’t going to be pretty. I don’t see them getting it done.
Tampa Bay with the Brady retirement has real problems. Wonder if Cappa can recruit a FA from there? Haven’t looked at their FA’s.
Denver with Sean Payton will be better but w/o draft picks they have an uphill battle.
NYJ I think becomes a factor by getting Aaron Rodgers
Miami Dolphins are definitely the team to watch after getting Fangio.
Buffalo will be about the same. They have no cap space and can’t do much.
Pittsburg & Cleveland will both be marginally better.
LAC I think finally started to gel and Kellen Moore will help them. I think there were 2 OC’s at Dallas him and McCarthy. Couldn’t have been ideal.
SF is really really good.
Philly is really really good.

$4.7 mill right now, according to Spotrac.
That's not even enough to sign the draft picks.
They also have an older roster, so they'll have to nail some draft picks to keep the momentum after this year or the year after.
Call me crazy, but Hurts is not as good of a passer as the top guys in the AFC - Burrow, Mahomes, Allen.
I'd take any of them over Hurts.
Just like I thought with Denver getting Wilson, I don't the Jets magically improve a ton after a season with double-digit losses by getting a new QB.
They might get 2-3 more wins, but that's not really contender-level.
Bengals are in such a good position with their cap space, but a good amount will go to impending internal FAs.
It's still a better situation than the other top teams in the league right now who have less than $10 mill to spend before re-signing anyone.
Out of all the playoff teams, the Bengals have the most cap space other than the Patriots.
The league average is just $5 mill.
Bills, Vikings, Jags, Dolphins, Jets, Cowboys, Chargers, Bucs are in the red.
The Eagles have a ton of high dollar free agents and possibly a Kelce retirement.
