You have to understand, we're about to have over $70 million in cap space after parting with Dalton and Glenn, and hardly anyone on this team is worthy of a fat raise, which is what happens when your team is coming off 4 straight losing seasons.
Mike may not like free agency, but he's also been good about spending close to the cap, as we've been only (roughly) $10 million under for the past 4 seasons. If we hold true to that, that means we need to spend $60 million this off-season.
I'm not going to say it's going to be a free agency bonanza, but I'd lay money down on us being very active for a change.
Good points.
Personally, I think we'll try and add an olineman, a lb and a cb. We've got a good chunk to spend of Mike spends what he usually does, and there should be at least a couple good signings. Given our draft position, that taking a position or two of need opens it up to taking players wewant for down the road I stead of trying to find 2020 starters.
