One man’s plan…if I were GM

[IndyNorm]

Mostly agree w/ the OP except for Daniel Jones. What exactly is AR going to learn from him? How to play just well enough to get a big extension from a desperate team and then completely shit the bed after that?

If we're going the support AR route then my vote is Mariota or (as I suggested in another post) try to bring Minshew back if possible.

Also, keeping Braden Smith is going to be tough if we want to make a splash in FA. We currently have $28M of cap space, so some room but not a ton to make many significant moves. Smith currently counts ~$20M against the cap and is a ~$17M cap savings if released. So unless he's willing to take a cut w/ a short extension he's probably gone.

Another player who's probably gone (or at least should be) is Raekwon Davis. He's ~$9M against the cap and would be a ~$6.5M savings is released.
