The most likely candidate for each NFL team for a post-draft exchange or cup

No, it's not because McCoy tweeted the Avengers' spoilers. I know Bills General Manager Brandon Beane has hinted that McCoy was still the starter at Buffalo, but I'm skeptical about his success in the 2019 season in upstate New York. He will enter the final year of his $ 40 million five-year contract. The Bills invested in the race at the finish of the season off by signing Frank Gore and T.J. Yeldon before writing Devin Singletary in the third round. McCoy will have about $ 3.3 million base salary on his contract when the transaction deadline approaches; Unless the Bills are fighting over the playoffs, it would not be surprising to see McCoy moved to the end of October. Could a meeting with Andy Reid make sense if the leaders are dealing with injuries at the back half post?

Ryan Fitzpatrick, QB

Dolphins who rebuild themselves do not need to leave anyone, but after their exchange against Josh Rosen, Fitzpatrick seems to be a useless piece of the puzzle. The Dolphins must use 2019 to evaluate Rosen before deciding to recruit a quarterback by 2020. Fitzpatrick could serve as a mentor, but with his base salary of just $ 1.5 million, the Dolphins could make a choice at halfway through a top-level backup team or emergency starter this fall.

Ryan Allen, P

You do not think Bill Belichick accidentally swapped bettor Ryan Bailey in the fifth round by accident, is not it? I would also worry a bit of Demaryius Thomas's place on the list after the Patriots came up with the 6-foot-2 sequence shot of Keal Harry in the first round. The former Broncos outstanding player was only assured of a $ 150,000 signing bonus when he joined the team, and if Thomas's re-education, torn apart by a torn Achilles, went badly, the Pats could be more inclined to hand him a settlement of his injury in August.

Darron Lee, ILB

It is a little surprising that Lee is still on the list, as the Jets are clearly determined to get in line for the linebacker after recruiting Avery Williamson and C.J. Mosley in consecutive alternating motives. Lee had his best season in 2018, but Mosley's signing apparently took the position of the former first choice. The Jets have to decide whether they will pick Lee's fifth-year option by Thursday, which is probably the time they want to reach an agreement. I wonder if a team evolving into a 4-3 base could try to acquire Lee in the hope of using it as a linebacker and as part of his sub-packages, given his scope.

AFC NORD

Kenneth Dixon, RB

Dixon has been generally productive as a pro, but knee injuries have limited the round quarter of 2016 to 18 games in three seasons. The Ravens buried Dixon on their depths chart this year by signing Mark Ingram and using a fourth-round pick on Justice Hill's defender Oklahoma State. Dixon entering the final year of his rookie contract, a team like the Buccaneers or Jaguars may well choose Dixon for a late pick in the hopes of finding a young starter at impact.

Fans often rush to defend signatures that deal with weaknesses, even if the contracts seem curious to foreigners. So it's telling that the Bengals' decision to sign Hart again with a $ 16.2 million three-year deal has been totally mocked by Cincy fans. The Bengals guaranteed Hart $ 5 million, but later used a first-round pick against Alabama's Jonah Williams, who is likely to be sentenced for Hart's starting post. Cincy could keep Hart as the preferred option, but with a base salary of $ 900,000, the Bengals could buy him as the seventh lineman, given how much of the league needs big offensive linemen average.

Duke Johnson Jr., RB

Apparently not a favorite of the John Dorsey Diet, Johnson has been the subject of commercial rumors for nearly a year now. The 25-year-old asked for an exchange after Brown's signing of Kareem Hunt, and although Hunt was suspended for the first half of the 2019 season, Johnson would play a limited role behind starter Nick Chubb until the return from Hunt. Johnson still holds some value for the Browns, with only $ 2.2 million in future awards, so it would likely require a significant commercial offer from a team that loses the benefit of its injury to release Johnson before 2020.

Artie Burns, BC

Last year, the Steelers were hoping Burns would become their No. 1 corner-half in 2018. He rather played so badly that Pittsburgh made it fail for most of the second half of his disappointing campaign. The Steelers then made a rare incursion into an unrestricted free zone to sign Steven Nelson before using a third-round pick at the Michigan State corner, Justin Layne. Pittsburgh will likely refuse Burns' fifth-year option, although teams who remember that Kyle Fuller was able to turn his career around after the Bears declined his fifth-year option might be interested in taking a chance on a corner that will be 24 years old this week.

AFC SOUTH

Seantrel Henderson, OT

The Texans might not have gotten a guaranteed upgrade that they badly needed to tackle the off-season, but they certainly added options to fix the weakness of their list. General Manager Brian Gaine signed a one-year contract with Matt Kalil before using two of his top three picks on Tytus Howard and Max Scharping. Both could be considered development prospects, but the 6 foot 7 inch Henderson is not exactly a finished product either. He signed with the Texans last year, only to break his ankle in the defeat against the Patriots early in the season. Even if Texans push Martinas Rankin to the guard, Howard and Scharping's presence on the list could push Henderson out of the way.

Jihad Ward, DL

There is not much fluff on the Indy player list, as the Colts did not spend a lot of money on self-service and will continue to build on the projects of General Manager Chris Ballard. After retaining Margus Hunt and using a second-round selection on a tie-down by calling on TCU's Ben Banogu, I wonder if the Colts might not have room for Ward, who has collected three sacks in six games the last season.

Keelan Cole, WR

While the Jags are publicly unhappy with Telvin Smith for daring to deal with volunteer training sessions as such, they have already guaranteed $ 5 million of his base salary of $ 9.8 million for 2019 and would incur the wrath of the NFLPA if they cut Smith. The future of Leonard Fournette is also at stake, but Jacksonville has made only minor additions in the mid-season of the off season. I would pay more attention to Cole, who fell into the depth chart after a promising second half in 2017 and could lose his spot as Chris Conley's fourth outs. If this happens, the former unregistered free agent should have a market, even considering the fall problems he encountered a season ago.

Tajae Sharpe, WR

I might have opted for Austin Johnson if Jeffery Simmons was to be in good health for Week 1, but the Titans having signed Adam Humphries and drafted A. A. Brown in the second round, there will not be many Sharpe representatives left. The 24-year-old played 13 games last season, but he only played five special shots. Most teams ask their draws 4 or 5 outsiders to play against special teams. Therefore, if Sharpe does not leave, the UMass product may not be able to justify its place in the alignment.

AFC WEST

Jake Butt, TE

The Broncos hoped that Butt would become the threat that had been lacking since the reign of Julius Thomas, but his knee injuries have spread him. Butt only played three games in his first two professional seasons, thanks to his second and third ACL tears. When John Elway traded and used his first-round pick on Noah Fant from Iowa, this prevented Butt from playing a role in starting training. Butt could remain the third tight end behind Fant and Jeff Heuerman, but it's hard to see him last all season in Denver.

Tyreek Hill, WR

Obviously, the horrific audio recording involving Hill that surfaced on Thursday created significant doubts about the NFL's future 25-year-old receiver. The Chefs have clearly prepared to replace Hill by using a second-round pick – the team's first selection in the draft – on Mecole Hardman, opening 5-foot-10 on Georgia, which plays the role of # 1. 39, a burner downstream and restores the image of Hill.

Cardale Jones, QB

The composition of the list of shippers means that they do not have many obvious candidates to release or exchange after this off season; they still need to add a bettor after they manage to go through free will and draft without bringing one on board. I'm tempted by the idea of ​​an offense headed by Philip Rivers, but that's another story for another day. The Chargers added smugglers behind Rivers by signing Tyrod Taylor and using a fourth-round pick on Easton Stick, which would apparently have the effect of pushing Jones out of the job.

Karl Joseph, S

All Raiders players acquired before Jon Gruden's arrival in town are on a still-thick ice. This is doubly true for Joseph, who has not met expectations since the Raiders recruited him in the first round in 2016. The first safety measures of Gruden in 2019 will likely be Lamarcus Joyner and the choice of Johnathan Abram's first round, and although Joseph could theoretically figure out If the Raiders adopt a nickel look and play three securities at once, I would not count on the fact that the Raiders would make it a priority for the offseason. They might even consider declining Joseph's fifth year option later this week.

NFC EST

Tavon Austin, WR

The Cowboys are heading to 2019 with Amari Cooper and Michael Gallup rooted in first place. After that, the depth chart depends on the availability of Allen Hurns, who suffered a serious ankle injury during the playoffs. The Cowboys have chosen Hurns' $ 5 million option for 2019, suggesting that they either think he's going to play or that his option was quietly guaranteed in case of injury. With Hurns, the Cowboys might not need Austin, who signed a one-year contract to stay with the team. Austin may well be the Dallas kickback, but the Cowboys have developed a weapon in Memphis, Tony Pollard, in the fourth round and could very well see if a returning man who scored seven times on kicks in three years could extend to the duties of punt.

Janoris Jenkins, BC

As was the case with Gruden and the Raiders, any Giants player who has not been acquired by General Manager Dave Gettleman must always look over his shoulder. Jenkins has generally played well during his stay in New York, but the Giants have recruited three half-corners this year and are back in the third round election, Sam Beal, who missed his entire rookie season with an injury to the team. 39; shoulder. Jenkins, 30, has a reasonable budget of 22.5 million euros in the last two years of his contract, which would make him a commercial candidate for a team in need.

Halapoulivaati Vaitai, OT

There are several players that we could choose here, including wide-open Nelson Agholor and half-offensive Wendell Smallwood and Josh Adams, but the selection of Andre Dillard pushes Vaitai into the trading block. The 25-year-old tackler was perfectly well behaved on the left when Jason Peters dropped in 2017. With only $ 2 million owed to Vaitai in the last year of his rookie contract, Vaitai would have the advantage. a significant market. The Eagles may prefer to take advantage of a commercial offer instead of waiting for a compensatory choice in 2021.

Colt McCoy, QB

Nobody in the league has a quarterback room as crowded as Washington. Dwayne Haskins' draft with the 15th choice added a new quarter of the future for a group that already included Case Keenum, McCoy and Alex Smith, who is probably out for the 2019 season. It would be a surprise if Washington was coaching both McCoy and Keenum in the first week, as their two salaries totaled about $ 6.5 million. With Keenum's more recent success, I suppose Washington will maintain the rank of the old Vikings and save $ 3 million by cutting or trading McCoy.

NFC NORTH

Taquan Mizzell, RB

Essentially out of the free and no-contest match in the first two rounds of the repechage, the Bears have no notable player who stands out as a potential target. The only option that comes to my mind is Mizzell, whose role in training could be threatened by the selections of David Montgomery and Kerrith Whyte Jr. in this year's project. Even then, I would think Mizzell beats Whyte for a spot in the lineup.

Theo Riddick, RB

Riddick is another half-goal whose role could be limited by the transition to a new offense. It seems likely that Lions will rely more on the duo of Kerryon Johnson and C.J. Anderson, led by Darrell Bevell. Detroit also brought down Zach Zenner and used a sixth-round pick against Ty Johnson, which could reduce Riddick's chances of being representative. Riddick has a base salary of $ 3.5 million in the last year of his contract, which is not acceptable for a third or fourth.

Josh Jones, S

The second round pick of 2017 must be announced after this season. Brian Gutekunst hired Adrian Amos from the Bears as an independent agency to take over a security post. He then joined Darnell Savage Jr. with the 21st pick of the first round. Jones could be a third security, but the Packers may prefer Tramon Williams to the position. The Packers might consider transferring Jones to a team looking for help against the race.

Laquon Treadwell, WR

Commercial rumors circulated around the Vikings during the draft, including Kyle Rudolph and corners Xavier Rhodes and Trae Waynes. I suspect that one or more of these players will not feature in the lineup until 2020, but the Vikings can afford to keep them for an extra season. In writing Irv Smith Jr., however, I guess Minnesota will be inclined to use more than two tight sets in 2019. In doing so, the Vikings will pull out the disappointing Treadwell from the field. The old pick of the first round might not be on the list in 2019.

Brandon Fusco, G

The Falcons have gone everywhere to add an offensive line to this off season. They signed freelance Jamon Brown and James Carpenter and used a pair of first-round selections for Chris Lindstrom and Kaleb McGary. The Falcons can not match all those guys with Jake Matthews and Alex Mack inked as starters, so it is likely that one of them will replace as the sixth lineman. The Falcons are not going to pay Fusco $ 4 million to serve as the seventh lineman, and they reacted by releasing the former Vikings starter on Monday.

Torrey Smith, WR

The Downstream veteran's threat is an excellent presence in the locker room, but Smith's catch-per-yard drop four seasons in a row and he had only 190 yards on 31 targets a year ago. Smith has a base salary of $ 5 million due in 2019 and is likely to yield clichés to Chris Hogan and Curtis Samuel.

Ken Crawley, BC

Beginner for the Saints in 2018, Crawley struggled to start the season and lost her job when New Orleans traded for Eli Apple. As Patrick Robinson came back from injury and the Saints signed P.J. Williams again, Crawley's role as the fifth half-corner would depend on his special teams. Unfortunately for Crawley, the Saints called on the former Vikings star Marcus Sherels to fill this spot in the formation.

Cairo Santos, K

Tampa used a fifth-round pick on kicker Matt Gay, who later confessed that he was even surprised that the Bucs had taken it so early. When you are a kicker and you think your account is overdrawn, this is not a good sign. The Bucs have been more than fearsome in identifying and developing kickers in recent years, but by recruiting Gay, it is likely that they will give the rookie advantage in a competition with Santos.

NFC WEST

Chad Williams, WR

The Cardinals are going to need to get a lot of weapons for new quarterback Kyler Murray in the Kliff Kingsbury Air Raid offensive. After the drafting of Murray, Steve Keim added a trio of weapons to him: the teams of Andy Isabella, Hakeem Butler and KeeSean Johnson. 2018's second-round pick, Christian Kirk, prepared a promising three-match streak before getting injured in December, and he could be a notable candidate. And, of course, Larry Fitzgerald is Larry Fitzgerald. Williams caught only 37% of the passes in his direction last season, and there is no guarantee that the third round of 2017 will beat anyone like Malachi Dupre or Pharoh Cooper for his place on the team.

John Kelly, RB

Kelly sparked a keen interest in the league after running for 197 yards and three touchdowns in the preseason, but the Rams signed C. J. Anderson off the street instead of giving Kelly the base role in December last season. Sean McVay & Co. expressed their disinterest for Kelly by comparing an offer sheet for Malcolm Brown to the Darrell Henderson redaction in the third round. His path to play time is at best cloudy.

Arik Armstead, DL

C.J. Prosise, RB

Once considered a promising half-back with the word to contribute to the setback, Prosise's career was marred by injuries. The Notre-Dame product played only 16 games in its first three professional seasons and fell in the depth chart. He is currently buried behind Chris Carson and Rashaad Penny, and the Seahawks recruited Travis Homer in the sixth round to find a more reliable replacement for Prosise. J.D. McKissic could also beat Prosise for his place in the lineup.
