Default Frugal free agency

I checked our current contracts to see where we stand, and it explains why we are not going after the first day wave of free agents. We have a lot of players under contract (66), but only 39 of them are names most would recognize. This leaves 14 spots to be filled. We will likely see six or seven from the draft, but that leaves seven contracts to fit into the $44M we have. That is just $3M per player, including drafted players. I can see spending around $10M for one big name, plus a couple around $7, and the rest on rookie contracts.

Here is the roster, if my formatting holds up:

OFF
QB
Wentz
Eason

WR
Pittman
Campbell
Patmon

Hines
Taylor
Wilkins

OC
Kelly

CB

Ya-Sin
Tell
Rodgers

S
Odum
Blackmon
Willis
Milligan


ST
K
Blankenship

P
