Seeing we just signed Tyler Biadaz as well, starting C for us.

Yup.

@NickiJhabvala
It's a three-year, $30 million deal for Tyler Biadasz in Washington, per source.

Nice...addressing both lines off the bat.

3 years $45m for Armstrong

Re: Commanders 2024 Free Agency Thread
 

@NextGenStats
Tyler Biadasz allowed pressure on 4.8% of pass blocks last season, 4th-lowest among centers (min. 300 pass blocks).

Commanders centers allowed a 7.5% pressure rate in 2023, 6th-highest in the NFL.

Certainly an upgrade, an average starter (PFF 14th ranked center), but certainly an improvement and definitely a starter (last year we signed a player, Gates that was considered to be a bad back-up at the time we signed him and we signed him to start).

End for Ricky Stromberg? Backup C/RG for next 3 years now.

Didn't we just draft him last year?

I'd imagine he will be competing to start at guard.

Re: Commanders 2024 Free Agency Thread
 

[quote=MTK;1359961]Didn't we just draft him last year?[/quote]

Yeah, he'll be a back up Guard. I guess it depends who else they sign for the o-line. Right now I would put Cosmi and Wylie as starting guards. I think the next FA o-line signing has to be a tackle though.

Ron drafted him, higher than most had him, shortly before drafting Braedon Daniels. The new front office might not have had that high a grade on him. They have no personal investment in him wherever Ron took him

I hear that, new regime = no loyalty to the current players and they may very well have a different evaluation of him. But I also think our OL was so thin bringing in a proven starting center to pair with a rookie QB is just smart business. Nothing wrong with quality depth if that's all Stromberg ends up being.

Very true

Re: Commanders 2024 Free Agency Thread
 

Wonder why the Cowboys let Biadasz walk? He started all 49 games the last 3 years and his stats show he was pretty great blocking. Didn't want to pay him 10 million a season?

I love the Biadasz move. Now we just need 1 guard and 2 tackles.

They cant afford him right now.. I suspect they are looking at the Oregon centre, Powers-Johnson, in the first round... very good player in that range, maybe see him as a new Travis Frederick

This is a lot of money for a guy who won't have Micah Parsons to draw the heat off him.

I trust Quinn though. Hopefully he's seen enough to think Armstrong deserves a bigger role.

The base value is apparently 33m , so 11m py, with the rest as incentives. Hopefully it is a matter of Quinn and DeWhitt knowing how to use him

Re: Commanders 2024 Free Agency Thread
 

Two threads why! Lmao nothing but praise and potential for that Carolina LB tho.

I like that we’re adding players just entering their prime; and not overpaying for vets (Wagner, Hunter, etc).

Eckler would be a great replacement for Gibson (from Josina Anderson)

Given that we have two young RBs in Robinson and Rodriguez, Eckler would be a good fit IMO.

I agree, I'm noticing a theme with that too. Solid starters who deserve solid pay, not breaking the bank, best years hopefully ahead of them too.

Word on Luvu is Panthers fans are mad about losing him, they said he's their best player on defense and deserved to be paid. I like it. Not sure if he lines up at mike or what but I like their approach so far.

Re: Commanders 2024 Free Agency Thread
 

Is Luvu a MLB? I have seen him listed as an OLB. Maybe a MLB still to come, playing genuine 4-3 LBs

Re: Commanders 2024 Free Agency Thread
 

So far today:

C - Tyler Biadasz (27)
Edge - Dorance Armstrong (26)
LB - Frankie Luvu (27)

All 3-year deals.

Re: Commanders 2024 Free Agency Thread
 

Good with all the signings. Love the Biadasz signing. Such an important piece.

Pro bowl in 22. Only 26. He is an above average starter imo.

Luvu was the top FA LB on every list I've seen. At that price probably our best FA signing in years (so far).

Re: Commanders 2024 Free Agency Thread
 

If they also get queen, and have the scheme and fit them both down pat with Davis, that would be a gigantic leap in the LB core.

So B-Rob, C-Rod, and Ekeler. He is a great safety valve out of the backfield for whatever quarterback is playing.
Been a great day !

Re: Commanders 2024 Free Agency Thread
 

thumbs down on signing a 29 year old RB with declining production.

Re: Commanders 2024 Free Agency Thread
 

He’s 29 but he’ll be in rotation and he is Always productive

He was signed to replace Gibson as a 3rd receiving back . . . i think he'll be great in that role.

Re: Commanders 2024 Free Agency Thread

See him being used more as a Sproles style RB at this point in his career

Have to figure Luvu is the starter so don't think it would be wise to sign Queen for big bucks to be his back-up.

I can go get that guy in the 6th or 7th round of the draft and pay him waaaaaaaay less.
