We don't really have one of these yet, so figured we could use this as a place to discuss potential free agent acquisitions and what we would like to look for them to bring in.
If any of you guys are interested, heres a good place to do some research.

I'm just getting impatient between this quietness and Hill's deal. [Reply]
There will be almost zero FA signings before the draft. This is the dead spot in the NFL calendar. Just watch baseball for the next three weeks. [Reply]

Assuming Veach and Reid hit on some picks, are you still going to whine when this team is loaded with cheap young talent from the next two drafts, allowing us to keep Jones, Hill, and Mahomes? [Reply]

That's an awfully big assumption that they'll hit on some picks. Until proven otherwise I'm still of the belief that last year's draft was a dud. Veach's 2018 free agent signings have mostly been duds and his complete lack of addressing the secondary directly led to such a horrible defense. It's still early, but on his watch there have been more losses than wins in the scouting department. [Reply]

I'm not whining, just stating that we have heard of a big move coming for a month and how agressive Veach is. Not seeing it yet. Maybe there is something, I hope there is. [Reply]

Well sooner or later, it is pretty much obvious that a trade is coming up. Veach cannot just count on the draft or the remaining FAs to actually field a good defense next year. There's only so much you can expect from a draft class in its first year when this team is going all in next year. [Reply]
The #Browns are expected to waive safety Derrick Kindred today, source said. He was slated to be a starter. Cleveland had shopped Kindred, who was due more than $2M in salary. He should generate considerable interest on waivers.
