Spielman never ceases to disappoint in FA, but being a glutton for punishment I was just checking out PFF's best available free agents list and their prediction as to what each player will get paid. 5 mid-tier players stood out:

Keanu Neal (S) - 2 yr, $10mil
Mackenzie Alexander - 2 yr, $6 mil
Gabe Jackson (G) - 2 yr, $10mil

total - $13mil per year

Keelan Cole (WR) - 2 yr, $11mil
Carlos Dunlap (DE) - 1 yr, $9mil

total - $14mil per year

PFF is just making an educated guess, but it look like $12mil could secure 2 or 3 of these players. Just sayin'....

According to Dan Patrick, Bears offered SEA three 1sts, a third and two starters for Wilson.

Seattle is stupid for not taking that one.

not sure about that. If you don't have a QB, you don't have anything.

That is an unbelievable amount of capital for one player. Unless your mane is Herschel...

Just draft another one is a lot more complicated than it sounds. Especially when the picks they get from Chicago don't figure to be very high.

You can draft lots of QB's early in draft. How many end up as good as Wilson?

The only QB's currently in the NFL I would want before Wilson would be Rodgers, Mahomes, and Brady.

Good luck with that.

Like I said, if the Vikings could trade their next 10 first round picks for Mahomes I would do it and be 150% confident it was the right move and the smart move. Miami, NY Jets, and the Vikings, and many other teams have had a lot more than 10 chances to draft their QB and have failed miserably.

It isn't that easy. Seattle knows this and they are not going to give him up.

Houston knows it, it's why they are dragging their feet.

Josh Allen

little early for me to put him in that class. going to need a little more than one playoff win. I will say him and Watson would be in the next grouping. Wilson won 1 super bowl and should have won another. Allen has one playoff win, hell Cousins as that.

42 touchdown passes, 10 interceptions. Nine rushing scores. Led his team to the AFC title game. Had one major weapon. I need to see no more. That kid is freakishly talented.

I was a doubter... he made me believe last year... so young too.... I'd take him maybe above Rodgers at this point too.

With between Weatherly and now Tomlinson, we have to have the most intelligent defensive line in the NFL.
