NFL 2020 Free Agency Frenzy Winners and Losers: Tom Brady signs with Buccaneers and Patriots dynasty over
Here are My NFL 2020 Free Agency Frenzy Winners and Losers: Tom Brady signs with Buccaneers and the Patriots dynasty is over.
Winners
Bills
Key Additions: Stefon Diggs, Mario Addison, Quinton Jefferson, Josh Norman and A.J Klein
Key Subtractions: Jordan Phillips and Shaq Lawson
Thoughts: The Bills got better by trading for Stefon Diggs getting the No.1 Wide-Receiver that they needed last year. They also improved their defensive line with Mario Addison and Quinton Jefferson. Josh Norman will give them a slot-corner that they didn't have last year either. The Bills are the favorites to win the AFC East next year.
Dolphins
Key Additions: Ereck Flowers, Bryon Jones, Emmanuel Ogbah, Shaq Lawson, Kyle Van Noy and Jordan Howard
Key Subtractions: None
Thoughts: The Dolphins improved their team in free agency too. They added Offensive Line help in Ereck Flowers. The Dolphins added a lot of Defensive help in Bryon Jones, Emmanuel Ogbah, Shaq Lawson and Kyle Van Noy. They also added a running-back in Jordan Howard. Tua Tagovailova or whoever the Dolphins draft at Quarter-Back will come into a good situation.
Browns
Key Additions: Jack Conklin, Austin Hooper, Andy Janonvich and Case Keenum
Key Subtractions: Christian Kirksey
Thoughts: The Browns added a left tackle that they needed in Jack Conklin. They added to their offense in Austin Hooper and Andy Janovich. The Browns also got a good backup Quarter-Back in Case Keenum. Case Keenum can win them games in case Baker Mayfield gets hurt. The Browns are now loaded on offensive in Baker Mayfield, Nick Chubb, Kareem Hunt, Odell Beckham Jr, Jarvis Landry, Austin Hooper and David Njoku.
Buccaneers
Key Additions: Tom Brady
Key Subtractions: Jamies Winston
Thoughts: The Buccaneers got better in 1-year with Tom Brady than they are now with Jamies Winston. Tom Brady won't turn the ball over unlike Jamies Winston. The Buccaneers do need to draft a Quarter-Back for next year in this year's draft because Tom Brady has only 1-year left. The Buccaneers are contenders in the NFC South this year with the signing of Tom Brady.
Jets
Key Additions: George Fant, Alex Lewis and Connor McGovern
Key Subtractions: None
Thoughts: The Jets needed to improve their Offensive Line in George Fant, Alex Lewis and Connor McGovern. They are gonna be contenders in the AFC East along with the Bills. The Jets went 7-3 when Sam Darnold came back after missing 3 games last year. They got momentum from last year.
Losers
Patriots
Key Additions: None
Key Subtractions: Tom Brady, Kyle Van Noy and Jamie Collins
Thoughts: The Patriots dynasty is officially over. Losing Tom Brady will hurt them this year. They are also not bad enough to get one of top Quarter-Backs in the draft. The Patriots would be wise to tank this year. They have Cody Kessler on the roster which will not win them a lot of games. All of us will bask in the Patriots sucking next year. The Colts signed Philip Rivers and Cam Newton or Jamies Winston will likely go to the Bears. Andy Dalton will make this team 6-10 and middle of the road. He is not a franchise Quarter-Back.
Jaguars
Key Additions: Darqueze Dennard and Joe Schobert
Key Subtractions: Calais Campbell and A.J Bouye
Thoughts: I got no idea what the Jaguars are doing. They spend a lot of money on both Darqueze Dennard and Joe Schobert, but also traded Calais Campbell to the Ravens for a 5th-Round Pick. The Jaguars also traded A.J Bouye to the Broncos. Is this team rebuilding or are they trying to win now? They need to draft a Quarter-Back and have No.9 pick to do so, but will they?
Vikings
Key Additions: None
Key Subtractions: Stefon Diggs and Trae Waynes
Thoughts: The Vikings traded Stefon Diggs for a 1st, 5th and 6th in this year's draft and a 4th in next year's draft. On the surface the Vikings got a good deal, but no so fast. In the last 8 years only 3 out of 8 No.22 picks have made an impact in Anthony Castonzo, Desmond Trufant and Bud Dupree. That is a .375 percent clip on the No.22 in the last 8 years. 5th and 6th-Round Picks are typically special teams guys. They also lost Trae Waynes to the Bengals in free agency. The Vikings are also talking to the Browns in trading Anthony Harris. This team looks to be rebuilding. It's crazy to think 3 years they were 1 game away from the Super Bowl.
Texans
Key Additions: Randall Cobb, A.J McCarron, David Johnson and Bradley Roby
Key Subtractions: DeAndre Hopkins
Thoughts: The Texans are losers because they traded DeAndre Hopkins for an declining running-back in David Johnson. They signed Randall Cobb in his place, but he hasn't had a good season since 2017 with the Packers. Randall Cobb is declining in the last 3 years. Will Fuller is a great Wide-Receiver when he is healthy, but he always gets hurt. The best ability is availability.
Colts
Key Additions: DeForest Buckner and Philip Rivers
Key Subtractions: None
Thoughts: Philip Rivers is a declining Quarter-Back which is why the Chargers got rid of him. The Panthers signed Teddy Bridgewater meaning they could had waited and traded for Cam Newton. They also could had draft a pass rusher instead of trading for one. The 49ers will get a replacement for DeForest Buckner.
Overview: The Bills, Dolphins, Jets, Buccaneers and Browns got better in this week while the Patriots, Vikings, Jaguars, Texans and Colts got worse. The Bears and Panthers did good in free agency too. I'm waiting to see what the Bears do at Quarter-Back before I put them in the winners category. Teddy Bridgewater was good with the Saints last year, but will be be good for the Panthers. We have to find out this year. The Patriots dynasty is officially over with them losing Tom Brady. They will likely be tanking for one year for Trevor Lawrence.
