Commanders free agency thread

It's not necessarily the amount of money a lot of times, but how it is distributed and how does it affect this year's cap.

I think they just like the player more too. Norwell was all pro in 2017.

@RapSheet

The Washington #Commanders are expected to sign former #Jaguars and #Panthers guard Andrew Norwell , source said. They are close on a deal. He fills a big void on the offensive line.

Nice.

Admittedly I havent seen a lot of Norwell's play but Cooley was in love with him when he was a FA a few years ago, he was they top G before going to Jags.

This is playing out nicely.

If they can address MLB and add a decent swing tackle a la Lucas, Id feel pretty good.

Keim says it's done

Free agent G Andrew Norwell will be at Washington's facility this morning. He has agreed to the deal, per source.

Announce Honey Badger please
I thought we had our two safeties in McCain and Curl.

That's what I meant - wonder if it's less than what Flowers' cap hit was this year.

Problem is if he is as or more expensive than Flowers was we just switched a younger player that played well for us for an older player that may be better but has to be integrated into our line and costs us a comp pick. If he costs less then I can see the utility.

McCain could be the nickel corner or buffalo nickel

Honey Badger also has position flexibility.

I think HB would be a good addition, but we need a MLB.

LVE was a guy I had forgotten about, would be a good upgrade at MLB (mind you that is a very low bar)

Norwell is a much better pass pro blocker than run blk.. In fact he has never had a Pass Blk grade under 70.. Pretty damn good

17 sacks given up in 4,775 snaps...
