Brandon Williams, Zietler, Nick Fairley, Melvin Ingram, JPP (even with a three finger discount ) etc are all potentially looking at big pay days in the open market for 2017. It is what it is.

Very true, but if I'm going to fix this D and I mean actually "fix" this D, I spend on a monster like Williams, not Fairley, not Ingram, not JPP, but a monster to anchor that line for years. Then we could draft an OLB and DE, they are fairly deep this draft. Zeiter would look good on the O I must say. It's kind of slim in the O-line draft but there are some good FA availible.

Very true... and we can't be afraid to spend big just because of the Byrd signing not working out. Look at what the Giants did last offseason and the huge improvement they made defensively. Gotta go for it.

Re: 2017 Free Agency thread anyone?

I'd rather spend our draft picks for a younger, faster, stronger defense and spend our cap money on our quarterback and offensive line...

It's alot easier this year to fix the o-line in free agency than the defense anyways...

And many here are forgetting that Tyeler Davison played most of the season injured with a torn pectoral...

We've got two really good UDRFAs plus a draft to get a quality rotational player to play the NT with Davison...

We need a DE to bookend with Cam Jordan who has both the length and strength to set the edge and allow Rankins and Ony to get after it on the inside...

Obviously it could just be speculation, but you're kidding yourself if you think Payton won't try to get a new toy for the offense. Patterson would be good for the return man/satellite RB role.

Patterson would certainly solve our kick returner problem.
