Remember to check original post for all AFCN transactions.
I do wonder what the Ravens are gonna do. They have lost 10 players off their roster, and only replaced one.
They have resigned a few, but, are they going to fill that roster with all new rookies and UDFAs?
Or do you think they will make some late signings of veteran FAs? Perhaps they will try to pick up some dregs....errrr, I mean, nuggets, just before training camp.
-
Signing of Dwayne Bowe by Browns noted
-
Bengals sign CB Brandon Ghee noted.
-
Bengals still seem the most ahead of the game.....signing good players in AJ Hawk, Michael Johnson, Ghee. Only loss is below average player Marshall Newhouse.
I assess Browns in the Equilibrium thread.
Ravens continue to bleed. They have lost 10 players, a few above average, acquired only one average at best player.
Steelers are just in stagnation mode. Signed just one player. An aged, but possibly useful backup RB. Lost one average DB to another team (who may have actually been their best DB) and one decent LB to retirement.
But....I note that they have about 10 UFAs on their team that nobody else seems to want. Only Brice McCain, that DB was signed by someone else.
To rank at this point I would say:
1. Bengals, slightly over Browns
2. Browns
3. Steelers
4. Ravens

Bernard Pierce picked up immediately by Jaguars.

Browns lose FB Ray Agnew to Dallas and Ahtyba Rubin to Seattle, noted.

well....he is a FB who can run.....(and block and catch)...(and he plays like a Brown)...(really)....
But no, not your TE hybrid type.....I know....
Still like him.....gritty, smart, strong, tough, versatile......there's gotta be spot for him.....
-
Point was that he runs around a 4.6 with good acceleration and decent agility. So he's on the high end of the RB range as far as speed goes, but he's on the small side at 5'11, 222 for a NFL FB or H-back.
Just seems to me more of a RB candidate... not sure about being a 5th Rnd RB candidate tho...

Yeah....probably more of a RB, simply because he actually can run....he's smallish(yes), but built like an ox and tough as nails....I think he'll play bigger.....
Plus, I'd like to add a Yaley to the mix....he can be Bryants brainy Ivy league counterpart for the O....
Two words....Smash mouth.
yeppers....would look good in my favorite color....December Orange....

Are you really ranking free agency activity? The steelers almost never play in fa. We signed moats, McCain was not our best corner this past season Gay was and Williams is the perfect compliment to Bell. We extended Ben and just signed Harrison. The Steelers build through the draft. Teams that build through fa lose for a reason. Name a team that has gone nuts in fa that has won anything recently worth discussing. Signing a ton of players in fa usually indicates the team does a less than satisfactory job of drafting and developing players.Bengals still seem the most ahead of the game.....signing good players in AJ Hawk, Michael Johnson, Ghee.

Not really... There are many reasons a team can come to need FAs... up to and including the exact opposite of your reason. Namely that team has been so good at identifying and developing talent that they cannot afford to keep them all.
Other reasons off the top of my head:
- injury replacements;
- final pieces for a push by a team that's almost there (real or perceived);
- mentorship;
- stewardship.
I think Harrison and Keisel were terrific examples of the latter for you last season.
