devaster 4,358 Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 I could see the Eagles having interest. SF could also be interested. Miami needs a RB. New England maybe. Rams? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

sSektor 2,192 Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 He just turned 28. Not sure how ancient that is for an RB in this era but either way I don't see him doing well unless the surrounding offense is elite. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

paulwall29 847 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Eagles, Bucs, Dolphins seem the most likely to me. Regardless of where he ends up, he won't be a fantasy option unless whoever is in front of him gets hurt. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lolcopter 7,779 Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 NFL insider Adam Caplan reports the Seahawks made an offer to free agent RB Devonta Freeman. Per Caplan, Seattle reportedly extended the offer because "they don't think Rashaad Penny will be ready for Week 1." Freeman meanwhile is holding out for more than what was initially offered. The team has already confirmed that Penny (ACL) will likely begin the year on PUP, but only veteran Marshawn Lynch had been linked to the Seahawks as a fill-in to this point. The big winner here remains Chris Carson, who will inevitably open the season with either fourth-round rookie DeeJay Dallas or a shaky-knees veteran as his sole competition.

Seahawks are going to cave and pay some veteran RB to handle a good amount of the load. They aren't going to rely on re-signing Lynch. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dontclapGonorrhea 370 Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 Freeman has a chance to produce. Carson fractured his hip, which is going to limit him immensely. I wouldn't be shocked to see Carson take a major step back this year. Could be closer to a 50/50 split. Freeman is a great early down back and outside of the goal line. Watching so many Falcons games though he gets stuffed on short yardage plays. Use Carson as the thumper and Freeman as the Bambi 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Seattle has a huge ? at RB and need to sign a free agent. Devonta would be the man in Seattle. If they sign him, the Sea hawks go from the worst team in the division to a competitor.

Even dumber of Freeman to turn down the $4M. How much does he think he will get? He was awful last year, barely played due to injury the year before, and had an opportunity to join a team where the starter has a fumbling problem and the backup is recovering from major surgery? Yet he thinks he’s better than that? Good luck. 1 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yet he thinks he’s better than that? Good luck. Seriously. Seattle is one spot where he can actually start and get significant volume. I don't know if Carson's fumble issues are actual issues. He did fine the season before and a lot of those fumbles were just really good defensive plays and unlucky. However, hip injury's are no joke. Both are recovering from major injuries. Maybe Freeman wants 4M and to go to like the Giants so he can sit on the sideline and collect money. Who knows? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BrianM 1,204 Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 The report i read said "up to" 4 million. There's little chance that was guaranteed money. I don't know who at this point would offer him more than maybe the league minimum guaranteed. Not that he's bad, its just a matter of musical chairs. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SharkSwimmer 4,809 Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 Also supply and demand. 8-9 hot new RBs, or more, join the league every year. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BrianM 1,204 Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 And plenty of similar options still on the market. Hard to justify a premium for any of these guys. Get whomever's cheapest. Hyde was decent last year. McCoy had a little juice left. Jonathan Williams had two 100 yard games in 5 days. Not to mention also the "wait until training camp, see if this UDFA running back we got is the next Philip Lindsay, or even the next BenJarvus Green Ellis, and that's good enough" Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Until he signs its rather difficult to project a stat line. Somewhere like TB could see him finish top ten. If he signed with a team like New England, his value would be pretty shot for 2020.

SharkSwimmer 4,809 Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 Top ten? If the gods of Olympus were awarded a NFL franchise for 2020 and they had Zeus starting at center and Devonta Freeman starting at tailback, Freeman still would not finish in the top ten. Top Ten!!!
