Some numbers I gobbled together per "Over The Cap":
Free agents:
Jon Jones UFA (9.5M APY)
Deatrich Wise UFA (5.5M APY)
Austin Hooper UFA (3M APY)
Joey Slye UFA (1.3M APY)
Ben Brown ERFA
Alex Austin EFRA
Daniel Ekuale UFA
Demontrey Jacobs ERFA
Miles Battle ERFA
Jaylinn Hawkins UFA
Christian Elliss RFA
Cap space:
131M cap space (44 players under contract) and 118M effective cap space (assuming we sign 51 players). And the next closest is the Raiders with 107/90 respectively.
Possible cap casualties/restructuring candidates:
Onwenu 21M cap number
Dugger 15.5M cap number
David Anderes 7.25M cap number
Jabril Peppers 7M cap number
Christian Barmore 15.1M cap number
Hunter Henry 10.5M cap number
Kendrick Bourne 7.9M cap number (6.5M saved if cut post June 1)
====================
Holy shit....this team is gonna be LOADED by early May.....I'd love to be aggressive in FA ....then move all over the draft board to fill holes....

This tool should just stop talking about sports. Because Maye is obviously Tannehill and Rham is clearly Henry. Fucking tool!

Yep. Fill every hole you can in FA then draft the best players available at a position you're looking to upgrade that you didn't upgrade in FA. No excuses. This team should be a playoff team next year.
He won’t necessarily bring Smith with him. Ultimately, he’ll bring an OC who can tailor the offense around Maye.
And the day after Thanksgiving is called "Black Friday" because the prices are so low, it's almost like stealing.

New England is the most desirable landing spot for coaching candidates, according to reports. Makes sense: great QB, most cap space, high draft pick. Ben Johnson and Mike Vrabel are the top two coaching candidates, so it will come down to one of these two for us. Imagine how badly Ben Johnson is going to destroy Vrabel in the interview process. Johnson will outline how he will be able to help Maye reach his potential with his creativity and grasp of the game in the modern era, and will detail how he plans to infuse the offense with talent. He will tickle Robert in ways that he hasn't experienced since the last time he visited an Asian massage parlor. Mike Vrabel will offer mostly the same things the previous two guys did - a defensive minded head coach who has ties to the old Patriots era. It's boring. It's not exciting, and it has a low ceiling.
It's going to be an absolute massacre by BJ.

Dumbass couldn't even figure out what day it was. He wasn't fired on Black Monday. It was Blue Sunday!

The first year HC thing scares me. All this guy has done so far is coach the offense well. We have seen many of these hot shots fail quickly. For every Mcvay there are a 50 McDaniels. I'm not saying he won't be the next Vince Lombardi but I like the idea of a guy who has done it once before and had some success. Learned what works for him and what doesn't in terms of organizational structure etc.. and has vision for what it will take to be successful.
Just my two cents.
honestly im hoping for Ben Johnson
This is an offensive league now and would be nice to bring a fresh set of ideas and leadership into the organization. Vrabel has ties to Belichick, granted he branched off on his own and was a successful head coach, but he's defensive minded and we really need to maximize the development of Maye

This is not aimed at you, but your post gives me the opportunity to note this...
Brady had a defensive coach
Manning won with a defensive coach
Roethlisberger won with a defensive coach
Wilson won with a defensive coach
Flacco won with a ST coach
The whole "got to have an offensive coach" thing is, to me, even less valid than the "got to have a mobile QB" nonsense.

Completely different era of football, and Brady was already well established during the second part of the dynasty.
Vrabel will get you to the divisional round every year, with the occasional AFCCG appearance. Better than what we've had in recent years, but not where we want to be.
If Ben Johnson is as good as many of us believe he will be, we're winning multiple SBs with him and Maye.

He was already established by then, and in 2020 he won with an offensive head coach.
Young QBs in today's game need offensive minded head coaches.
Let's not pretend like Ben Johnson isn't the perfect man for the job. It's so obvious. His hiring would move the needle.
Why are you trying to shade your argument with that "already established" horse shit? It's an asinine argument, even for the trollingest of trolls.

Because it's true and relevant. Two decades in the league. He was basically the offensive coordinator at that point.
Drake Maye still needs to be developed to reach his true potential. Ben Johnson is the man for the job.
