Free Agent Preview & Predictions + Silent Andy

and the team has said they want him. He said he wants to be here. The way that Cliff Kingsbury talks about Kenyon Drake is that he is the perfect fit for this offense. And to be fair, he was the perfect fit for this offense. Yes. He did prove that. Yeah. I mean, and, you know, so I believe he is back with Arizona. Now for some context. David Johnson, it will be the second highest cap hit on Arizona's books this year. Yeah.

He will have the third highest hit at the cap hit at the running back position. So bringing in Kenyon Drake, who reportedly wants at least $10 million a year, that, I mean, Kenyon Drake's, Kenyon Drake will get a fair amount of money. He's not going to get like Zeke or Todd Gurley money, but Kenyon Drake will find a team. Can you really, as a franchise, have a.

Running back counting is 14 million against your books this year, and then bring in another guy who would count for eight? No, you can't. 22 million dollars invested in two running backs? But I would say that there is a way. There is a way that teams get the number one pick overall in the draft, like the Cardinals had two years ago, and it's by making poor decisions.

So we'll see. Hopefully, I mean, I don't even know what I want to have happened, both from a fantasy perspective, a fan perspective, because King and Drake, I believe, is great for fantasy. And if he got the role in Arizona, or if a team pays up, right, if a team goes out and gives him more than $10 million a year annually, they're going to give him the ball. So, you know, what team, if he were to go to Houston. If you were to go, no, let's take my landing spot. My spot was great, Atlanta.

Kenyon Drake, Atlanta Falcons, he's getting $8 million a year. I will be very interested in him for this season, assuming that they cut Navant Freeman, which I think they would have to in order to make that move. Yeah, I agree. At the wide receiver position, Amari Cooper and A.J. Green, depending on how you have them ordered, they would be the two most sought after fellas at the position. AJ Green, all three of us have him going back to Cincinnati. We're all bought in that...

the Bengals are going to franchise him. So there's not a lot of discussion to be had there. Amari Cooper, though, Jason and I have different landing spots. I think he ends up back in Dallas. Jerry Jones doesn't like to lose. And I'm traveling down Narrative Street, and the shops are nice. That's fine. But Jerry Jones doesn't want to lose, and that means paying Amari Cooper a lot of money. They're going to...

If they franchise DAC, then they're just going to have to open up the checkbook and say, Amari Cooper, don't even go look at other teams. And I think that's what's going to happen. Yeah, I would guess. I haven't looked this up for Amari Cooper, but I would guess that the NFL odds, the vagus odds of landing spot. It has to be very heavy for Dallas. Yeah, I would assume that Dallas is the front runner. But since they can't use the franchise tag and Amari Cooper is.

You know, at the wide receiver position, assuming AJ Green is franchised, he is the clear bell of the ball. After him, there, it really isn't. A lot of bells at this ball. Well, you know, one bell per position, you know, and then you, and then afterwards, you're going to say, take all the bells together and say who's, who's the beauty? Very nice. You're talking about bells. Yeah. All right. You know, but the thing is, is after Amari Cooper, it drops off a cliff. I mean, who's the next best, Robbie Anderson?

Yeah. So there's a lot of teams out there that need a wide receiver desperately. I have been moving in division to the Washington Redskins. Whenever you have a new quarterback, the NFL teams are desperate to get them weapons. You know, whenever, you know, every single team that has a second year quarterback, look at, you know, you've got a young guy. The franchise wants to help ensure their success.

And that takes a wide receiver one. I think Washington has the cap space, the need, and, you know, the ability to offer him a massive contract that Dallas just can't hang with because of the DAC and Zique money that's tied up. So what I do like about this analysis is on our dynasty league or in our dynasty league, I have Terry McLaurin. So it's great because Washington already has a wide receiver one. So then bringing in like a wide receiver two.

That'll be sensational. I like it. Yeah. Because I'm not scared of Amari Cooper. Wide receiver two, going to get paid $20 million a year to show up for half of the games. Get out of here. Robbie Anderson, speaking of showing up for like three of the games every single year, just enough to have a little bit of drool run out your mouth of what could possibly be with Robbie Anderson. I'm sending Robbie Anderson. I've seen some other people talk about it. I agree.

We alluded that Green Bay is going to upgrade their weapons. I think they start right away, right in free agency, and they bring in Robbie Anderson. He's still young. I'm sending him to the Green Bay Packers, Devante Adams, and Robbie Anderson with Aaron Rogers. That's how you assure that you can sell that he is not a not, not a top 10. Well worded. Fantasy quarterback. I like that. No, I like that a lot. I do think Green Bay is going to go out and try to make a move.

But what we have seen is that this as a team is they're so focused on their defense on the running game. I'm not 100% sure that they're going to go out and spend big money for essentially the next best free agent option. I don't think it has to be huge money. I think it's going to take a lot of money to get Robbie Anderson. I could be wrong. The team that I've got him going to is the Philadelphia Eagles. And that one makes a lot of sense as well. They've talked about getting younger.

As a team, they need weapons at wide receiver. Alshan Jeffrey is now a grandfather. You know, Nelson. I really hope that that is not true. I have not vetted that. I made that up as a joke. Somehow, some way, I really hope that he is a proud grandfather now. Well, I mean, he is like, what, 43? 47.

So some grandfathers could be that young. But look, he's not getting... Just turned 30 years old. Just turned 30 years old. You shut your mouth, Brooks. 30 going on 47. This bit is gold. Yeah. I mean, look, the people get it. He's slowing that. Alshan's fine. But he needs... He's got the body of like a 52 year old. He needs help. That thing's breaking down. I mean, speaking of a body breaking down for an older wide receiver...

Not Alshan. We're talking about Dishon Jackson. Right. Also an eagle. They need to replace that speed. You saw it when Carson Wentz did not have a downfield option. He was not as good as he was week one when he had that. So I've got him going there. And I love where Andy has Robbie Anderson going. It makes complete sense to me. Oakland.

tried to do this last year. They went out and they signed Antonio Brown. They signed Tyrell Williams. Or I shouldn't say Oakland now, Las Vegas. Oh, yes. You know, Robbie also has a little bit of baggage, um, which historically as a, he seems like a raider. He does seem like a raider. That being said, Mike Mayock as general manager has focused with the sole exception of Antonio Brown of bringing in.

extremely like the whole this whole last draft they pounded the the high character guys uh and i'm not sure that robin anderson would generally speaking fall into that category on someone's free agency board did you catch the video frank calliando the guy who does all the impressions great impressions does it grude

Oh, he does a great. Did you see the video? He was out with John Gruden at an Aerosmith concert. And you didn't know he was there. Like, it's John Gruden filming a selfie video in his John Gruden voice talking about how he's at this concert. And he says, what do you think of this? And then he passes it to Gruden. It is captivating. I have to. The recent one I thought you were going to talk about was Calli Ando doing John Gruden brushing his teeth.

Have you seen that video? Is that the one where it's got like the does someone with his ring? It's great. Caliando is on fire these days. If you're not following him, there's some free pub for Frank Caliando. Is there any other like, any wide receivers you really want to talk about? I think this is worth bringing up because this is kind of to prep people on the, the position, right? There's not that many other options. There's Emmanuel Sanders who.

Looks like he's probably going to re-sign with San Francisco. Andy's got him going to New England. But then, I mean, here. That's, like, that's perfect. Right. The older. It is perfect. He'll go there and then he'll retire. Yeah. He won't play. You won't make it through training camp. You've got Brashad Perriman. Now, can Brashon Perriman be this year's Devante Parker, year five breakout? It's giving us basically nothing. No, no. No, he gave us.

Some really great. Do you remember how good he was? Yeah, he was the wide receiver three over the final five games because he had some monster performance. 87, five for 87, three for 70 with a touchdown, five for 113 with three touchdowns, seven for 102, five for one thirty four in a touchdown. Okay, I didn't remember how he was freaking awesome. That's pretty good. That's pretty good. I know he was a product, he was a byproduct of a scenario, but. Wait a minute. Is some team going to.

pay up for yes paramed's going to make money oh my goodness one of these teams is going to regret a contract given to brashad parrerman that is my official where where is brashad parraman going to go my official answer is to a team that will regret it i am year one i'm just so pleased with what happened with brashad parraman he was on cleveland

Was that where he was? He was on a Cleveland? He would know what I'm saying. No, he was on a different team and then they released him. Yes. Like he said, I don't, I've changed my mind. I don't want to be here. Then he went to Tampa Bay and goes and has this stretch of games. When was he on Arizona? Wasn't that this season? What? What are you talking about? Oh, I'm thinking of Kevin White. Yes. Yes. Kevin. No, the same draft class. Same draft class. Just high draft capital bust that.

Never got it going. No, but seriously, Brashad Perryman, if he gets a contract, I'm going to be so happy for him. I will be happy for him, but not for the fan base. He can do it. He proved it. I mean, but numbers with James in that system, if all you're saying is just total counting numbers, people can put up a large sum of numbers in that offense without.

being great. Evans and Goblin were injured during that stretch and there's so many yards being thrown in that system. Someone's got to get it. Other wide receivers available, they're not great. DeMarcus Robinson, Rashad Higgins, Devin Funches, Geronimo Allison, Randall, Nelson, Nelson, Aguilar, Philip Dorset. Is any one of them, someone that you'd say, like, you're an Arizona Cardinals fan, they need wide receiver help. Anybody on that list that you'd say, you know, I would really be happy if we snagged. I would take Robinson.

Because he's so crazy fast. Robinson could fit into what Arizona needs to do. At the tight-end position, it's actually pretty loaded. Hunter Henry, Austin Hooper, Eric Ebrun, the Fallen Warrior Tyler Eifert, if we want to talk about him. Just joking. But Hunter Henry, Austin Hooper, I mean, those are big names. Those are players who have produced. Those are players who have been awesome when they're on the field. Hunter Henry has been.

great. When he's on the field, he brings that baggage of oft injured. So where do you think Hunter Henry is going to end up? I will let you, now I'm looking at the dog, Jason. Yeah. Because you have a team that's not the Chargers. That's right. We reported earlier in the show that it is really heating up that the Chargers are going to franchise Hunter Henry. Yes. I'm going to let you change your answer if you want to. Well, my answer is half a wishing well.

Because I do think that the Chargers realistically can end up franchising Hunter Henry and then he'll be back with it. I think they will. The team that I had him going to prior to that news coming out recently was the Indianapolis Colts. Now is that because you thought Andrew Luck would unretire? No, it's because Philip Rivers, I've got to go into the Colts. So if Philip Rivers and Hunter Henry went together for a team that uses the tight-in position so much.

is clearly not going to bring back Eric Ebron, who is an unrestricted free agent. I think they would upgrade that position, and they would make a run at him, but obviously you can't do that if he's franchised. Speaking of Eric Ebron, is there anywhere that Eric Ebron can go in the NFL that you will not be excited? Oh, you switched it on me there. I'm all nodding, yes. Is there anywhere he could go where the resident Eric Ebron Truther on this show? Nope.
