Five BOLD Predictions for the START of Free Agency | Bears and Raiders Go SHOPPING!
Free Agency’s Tampering Period is getting ready to kick off in a few hours and I thought I would have some fun and make five BOLD predictions for the start of Free Agency. I wanted to have some fun and try to predict a couple of the moves. Let’s see if I can hit on a couple of my predictions and I would love to see your predictions as well. Let us know on Social Media your Biggest and Boldest predictions!
Chicago Bears – The Bears have the most cap space of any team and they do not shy away from getting some defensive standouts. The Bears on the first day land Frank Clark, Javon Hargrave, and Jonathan Jones! The Bears have some needs on the defensive side of the ball, and that is the way they strike first. The Bears land a solid veteran edge rusher, a very dynamic defensive tackle and an up coming cornerback to play opposite of Jaylon Johnson.
Atlanta Falcons – The Falcons make it a priority to land their safety, they spend big money to land Jessie Bates III. The Falcons add some depth to a rough secondary. Jessie Bates III cashes in and immediately becomes the leader of the Falcons defense. This is a great move by the Dirty Birds.
New England Patriots – Patriots get Mac Jones some weapons. The Patriots sign Adam Thielen, and Odell Beckham Jr., but they are not done. The Patriots also swing a trade for DeAndre Hopkins giving the Patriots a stacked wide receiving corps. Belichick makes one last run at a Championship and he does it by adding three solid veterans, while losing several wide outs in free agency.
New York Jets – The Jets are going to do everything they can to land Aaron Rodgers and make it more attractive. They sign Right Tackle Mike McGlinchey to help protect the 39-year-old gunslinger. The Jets make the trade for Rodgers before the start of the league year and they spend some solid money to protect him.
Las Vegas Raiders – Raiders need to get a nasty offensive front to block for Josh Jacobs. They do that by going after Taylor Lewan, and guard Graham Glasgow. They finally commit to Parham playing center and add some pieces to protect the quarterback. The Raiders were not done though. They need some help on that defensive front and they add Fletcher Cox and Dalvin Tomlinson. Two massive defensive lineman to come in and allow Maxx Crosby and Chandler Jones be free. The Raiders make a huge splash in the trenches.
