Last Free Agency Round

@matthewyoung123 @OrangeP47 @ebrk85 @Rezi @jnewt

All unclaimed players will retire if not selected, unless they were an undrafted rookie. Check your contracts, but now is your chance to get very cheap backup QBs, kickers, and other players. 

Feel free to make a bid lower than what they desire. So you can say, "will take Esiason for a D-level contract" for instance. He will go for the highest bidder. If you have a QB that is light red or bright red, you might want a backup. If you haven't a K, you might want a K. There's also a FB and a T. 

Choices:

QBs Name Contract Rank Years Left
QB George, Jeff D 3
QB Detmer, Ty F 3
QB Testaverde, Vinny C 3
QB Klingler, David D 3
QB Esiason, Boomer B 3
QB Frerotte, Gus F 3
QB Flutie, Doug D 3
QB Millen, Hugh F 3
QB Blake, Jeff F 3
QB Kosar, Bernie D 3
QB Everett, Jim D 3
QB Ware, Andre F 3
QB Mirer, Rick D 3
Position Name Contract Rank Years Left
FB Mack, Kevin C 3
T Gruber, Paul D 3
K Boniol, Chris F 2
K Wilkins, Jeff F 2

I’m not going to be able to actually look at my teams and free agents in depth, probably, until late tonight. So you can go ahead and either advance without me trying to sign any FAs, or make offers for me, @vcczar. I don’t think my teams have many needs anyways, and I know I don’t want to drop anyone.

Free Agent Signings:

  • QB Flutie - Rams
  • QB Testaverde - Bears
  • QB Esiason - Oilers (at D)
  • FB Mack - 49ers (drop FB Davis)
  • FB Davis - Saints (as a D @OrangeP47....did this because the Saints didn't have a RB or FB and this prevents at least an F for you. Also, it wasn't fair that Davis would be retired because he was dropped in the last FA round, so I had to give him to someone.)
  • T Gruber - Seahawks
  • K Boniol - Colts
  • K Wilkins - Lions
Retirements: QB George, QB Detmer, QB Klingler, QB Millen, QB Blake, QB Kosar, QB Everett, QB Ware, QB Mirer. 
 
Remaining FA: Rookie QB Frerotte will hope to be picked up next year. 
 
I'll figure out the team strengths after I grade a ton of papers.

While we wait for @jnewt and @Rezi to make final bids on FAs, I need to know who will be your starters:

  • Browns QB: Humphries or Rypien? @Rezi
  • Colts RB: Brown or Levens?  @ebrk85
  • Chargers QB: Johnson or Brunell @Rezi
  • Jets RB: Byner or Johnson @OrangeP47
  • Rams QB: Dilfer or Grbac (or Flutie if you get him) @ebrk85

@ebrk85 actually Grbac is better than both Dilfer and Flutie, so I'll say you'll start Grbac again unless you want to try Dilfer or Flutie.

1994 NFL Season Power Rankings (Pre-Boost/Penalties)!

I was able to do this even without ebrks starting RBs being settles as they are approximately the same skill. You can actually ignore the records here because I think these are from the 1992 season and not from last season. One thing that is noticable is that the Vikings flew WAAAAAY up, mainly due to great drafting (Kurt Warner) and great FA pickups. 

The SB is looking like Dolphins vs Vikings, but there are so many strong teams that it will be hard to know how this ends up. Bengals and Saints are the worst teams. The former never reached for a stronger QB, while the latter never went for a RB. I think due to division strengths, it almost certain the Bengals will get the 1st overall pick next year, unless they boost their way out of this. 

Team Division W L Total
Dolphins AFC East 4 12 1173

Rams will start Levens

And if not too late Rams will go with Flutie.

Alright. Did so. You dropped two spots in the power rankings with Flutie, mainly because he's less accurate and fumble prone, although he is much more mobile. The drop isn't as bad as it sounds because the teams are a lot closer together.

1994 Regular Season Standings!

Bengals will once again get the first pick in the NFL Draft. The Giants and Buccaneers are the biggest surprise playoff teams. Cowboys barely snuck by the Cardinals. Colts and Browns were the greatest overperformers. Chiefs and Bears were the greatest underperformers, possibly. Note: I probably won't get to the QB stats or playoffs until tomorrow.
