2021 GMO Free Agent Bids

Need to dial that clock from 48 to 24...2 days is a long ass time lol

That said, the Patriots sign:

LB Matt Milano
$5,500,000

and rescind their $5.5M bid on LB Jayon Brown

 

Patriots bid on:

DL Adam Butler
$2,000,000

previous bid none

 

I’m glad that in the real world that the Buffalo Bills resigned Milano.

For the draft, and other moves, I’m going to operate on the premise that the Bills have this very versatile LB on their roster.

Or, are we supposed to act like this make-believe world is reality?

 

So is 1 day, 19 hours.

 

@jd0313 - You now own the highest bid on Jaylon Brown.

(and he's eligible to be signed)

 

There's a difference?

 

BROWNS have signed
PK Ryan Succop
$1,050,000

 

@matthewwillson29 ,

You have a small pile of players to sign.

 

Seahawks bid
G Mike Iupati
$1,500,000

no prior bid

 

Colts bid:
Marlon Mack (IND) - RB
$1,250,000

Previous bid
Browns
$1,000,000

 

TD,

You realize Iupati has retired?

 

Browns bid
RB Marlon Mack
$1,500,000

prior bid Colts
$1,250,000

 

Oops. I missed that....
Seattle rescinds offer on Iupati.

Seattle bids
G Denzelle Good (LV)
$1,050,000

RAIDERS have signed
DT Tyson Alualu (PIT)

Me . . . at this very moment.

 

Just curious, but did we not have a previous rule where there was some sort of waiting period?

I mean had underdog signed him he would’ve won with a bid that was like 2 million higher than the last one, and someone might have been comfortable bidding say 1 million more than the previous bid, but if there’s no waiting period they won’t have that chance and he’ll immediately become unavailable.

At the very least I suggest we add a 12 hour window next year if nothing else for this particular scenario when it arises

 

Yeah, I'm pretty sure it was 24 hours.

 

Well the way this is designed suggests you should assume you do not have him, since the premise is that from the moment of roster lock we have done what we have done and are not bound at all by what is happening in the real world.
