CJ going back to Philly after trashing their fanbase when he left the 1st time is the best one. Instant entertainment
Eagles fans don't care just as long as he plays well all will be forgiven.
@@henrywallacesghost5883 bring back Ben Simmons.
@@tiagofigueira5361 So the Sixers could suck as bad as the Nets? No thanks. Simmons averaged 6.1 points and 5.7 assists per game this season. He is useless; they can keep him.
He's not very good at football much better at yapping.
@@kevinbillingsley8256Simmons might actually be the biggest bust in recent NBA history. THe dude is absolutely HORRIBLE
lmao great little jab at Skip there
The Lions signing DJ Reader should be a Top 10 but it happened after this show aired. We got him on a two year/$28M contract, which is a bargain these days. The Lions avoided all the shiny, expensive objects yet significantly bolstered their D.
10. Green Bay- Xavier McKinney
9. Green Bay- Josh Jacobs
8. Minnesota- Aaron Jones
7. Pittsburgh- Patrick Queen
6. Houston- Danielle Hunter
5. Baltimore- Derrick Henry
4. Las Vegas- Christian Wilkins
3. Philadelphia- Saquon Barkley
2. New York- Brian Burns
1. Atlanta- Kirk Cousins
Kirk at 1 is so stupid lol
@@colbypook647why QB has the biggest impact on team. Surprised Russ got snubbed
@@Zangyaks kind of my point lol Russ should be top 5 for sure. Kirk is like 35 and coming off an Achilles. He’s also only won 1 playoff game in the last 10 years 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️ Russ won a super bowl
@@colbypook647Russ won a Super Bowl with a dominant defense.
Same "dominant defense" went 7-9 twice in a row before RW was drafted.@@Sconi71
Really close Rich! Nicely done!
Rams run game is gonna be amazing this year
All power with a 2 ft tall back hiding out and darting around. Start the 2k watch.
Kyren is a monster. So underrated
Bit of an over pay for Jonah Jackson...he's solid if healthy as a run blocker.
This is going to be a juicy season 🤩🤩
Danielle Hunter with Will Anderson Jr is scary
Depends what Hunter shows up. He will just go missing weeks at a time sometimes.
@@lucrative6477yea but Houston is different. It has a lot of energy on the team and in the city.. Vikings felt like a dying team Houston is an up and comer and I think that does something for a player
In Ryan's defense, yes it is.
As a Texans fan who absolutely loves everything about this team, I'm here for it.
@@lucrative6477Promise the culture of the Texans won't allow that to happen. DeMeco talks about it all the time. Having a relentless mindset is the standard.
And scene.... Damn. I love you, Rich Eisen.
Leonard Williams in Seattle is a top 10 signing.
As an esgles fan, I'm loving this FA period, and I also loved the end of the video!! 😉
Yeah the esgles are T refic dood!
I was wondering where the Sieg signing would fall. Big move. All in babayyyyy!! Go Cowboys!!!
Underrated move: Philly getting Bryce Huff from the other Jersey team. Also, re-signing C.J. Gardner-Johnson after letting him walk the previous year.
I like how he said Arthur blank is so old he’s pretty much dead. Sir, have you seen Mrs. Mckaskey recently
Brian Burns is number 1. He’s a freak athlete. One of my favorite players, so sad he went to the Giants
Wasnt a free agent
Jacobs is gonna be so damn fun to watch! What an incredible move by the Packers especially getting one of the arguably the best safety in the league! GB is blowing fans away that was not expected
But they are paying him literally double what Jones is getting for the first year.
@@dicezart9667he’s right, too much money for Jacob..it’s really a one year deal. Getting most of the money in his first year
@@dicezart9667 If it wasn’t for Adam Jones in the Playoffs , Packers wouldn’t got that far. No way Jacobs is going to carry the team like Jones did . Still too much money for Jacobs
@@johnsobey4261 What? Josh Jacobs faced the most stacked boxes of all RBs in the league, averaging 7.2 opponents in the box, and still put up good numbers. That won't happen in GB with their QB and receiving core. They can't focus him like they could with the Raiders. Jones usually faced very light boxes. Jacobs is set up for success with the Packers.
I swear some of ya'll don't actually watch what teams do on the field.
That Hunter move by the Texans is legit a smart move...do all you can on the Stroud rookie deal
Low Key, the Commanders have made some very solid pickups. Nothing super sexy outside maybe Eckler, and Wagner, but Ertz, and some other very nice pickups.
Don’t sleep on Frankie LuVu, he could be a beast
Unless they change their name back to the redskins, they will never do anything.
@@madladnatecry more
The lack of props that Washington gets is astounding
Detroit Lions not doing something stupid like signing another teams minor star for a huge contract is my top 10. So happy for a competitent GM and his staff. Go Lions! PS Amik is a dawg cannot wait for him to play in Detroit.
What Skip tweet was he referencing?
Lmao
Man, I was hoping Rich was going to troll TJ by including the long snapper for Dallas 😊
Rich likes every single signing, history says majority of these deals want age well at all.
Meh I think it’s more normal that there are 1/3 good, 1/3 bad. And 1/3 meh
I find Rich at times to be way too optimistic. Most big money FA signings don't pan out well at all
@@ericsong5155 He is the Jimmy Fallon of NFL analysts/talk shows
Yeah I admire Rich's positive outlook on everything but he's the same every year in free agency lol.
"I don't know man... That guy with that guy then add *THIS* guy? ... Look. Out."
**Team finishes 5-12**
He's just old and out of touch.
His reasoning is from 2005.
He tries to sound cool and it just hits the ear wrong.
Probably his radio voice
Danielle Hunter going to Texans is top. That team is getting scary.
Wilkins & Crosby will be the best DLine tandem in football and it won’t be close
I will miss Wilkins in Miami so much. They should have signed him last year.
That Bradley Chubb trade wasn't great...
I was worried that Rich forgot Trent Sieg, but he came though at the very end!
Lions getting DJ Reader should have been on this list, which was released before his signing. This monster will allow Alim McNeil and Aiden Hutchinson more opportunities to get after the passer. It also allows what was an already good run defense to be better and not take as many risks.
Derrick Henry to Ravens? Oh, Dear Lord
Big kirko for no.1 love it
Putting a 35 year old qb coming back from serious injury at 1 is a wild and terrible take
The Aaron Jones acquisition would have been 10th for me. Adding him barely pushes the needle.
Says a salty Packers fan. Dude is underrated and boosts any offense with just his passing protecting ability.
It does move the needle, your just a highlight fan. Nothing matters to you unless it’s a highlight on ESPN.
Great addition for the team, and if any team makes a bunch of signings like this that’s what makes you a great team. Not saying the Vikings are but this move was 1 of many great moves they need to make.
@@nashvegaspimpdude is a casual don’t even waste ur thumbs
@@bluescripts100 dude one of the best pass blocking RB in the league. Highlighters don’t realize the importance. Only reason GB got Jacob’s was bc he’s his equivalent in that category, but more running the ball upside.
@@nashvegaspimp He's also always on a snap count though. He's not a 3 down back and his hamstring keeps having issues. There are potential pitfalls there. For a team without a good QB and without a roughly equally good back he's not gonna be game changing. If he joined a good offense, he's the type of player that can push them over the top, depending on how good they are at scheming RB's open in the passing game. I just think he won't move the needle too much for the Vikings specifically.
Damn Rich! Do you watch tape? As a Panther fan, I am happy with the move. Burns was lazy in the run game all season, IN A CONTRCT YEAR! I wouldnt pay 30 mill a year for 9 sacks a year.
Henry to Baltimore is biggest move
Henry has a lot of hard miles, those type of RB's fall off the map quick
@@ositofreitasbeen thinking that about him for a couple years now and he keeps chugging along. Such a beast!
Re: Josh Jacobs. My question is will the COLD make a difference? Tough on RBs.
Aaron Jones was fantastic at the end of the season. Jacobs is great, but letting go of Jones still stings a bit and I'm not even a Packers fan.
Rich has definitely listened to Nixon speeches and the 'gaps' between statements
now ...I have....... noticed it..... I can't ... avoid it - oh ..... so .....on brand...
It’s hilarious how when Kirk was on the Vikings he was a nobody. He goes to Atlanta and now he’s a Super Bowl caliber QB.
Feel the Burns..
With three road graders in the middle of the offensive line, imagine the Rams got Derek Henry as a situational back.
derrick henry 👍
D hunter was the number one free agent on every one's list
Sup tj!!!
Over reach on free agents is no way to build a team. Fill a hole sure. Often just over spending that leads to dead cap money. The way to championships is to hit on the draft.
Two in the top ten makes you at least top 5
I 1000% thought Rich was going to use the you think we need one more on the Cowboys for not making any moves
Love the Josh Jacobs move! My son had a writing assignment for school and picked him to write about. Not only a great player but a great human.
No mention of Jerry Jeudy finally having a receiving Corp around him, No one thinks the Browns getting Jeudy is a big deal? You will figure it out in September!
Gus Edwards to the Chargers is a sneaky good signing.
I agree him 10 yards out he’s definitely top 5 RBs
I could see them drafting Corum from Michigan on day 2 as well.
Um no ty I would rather have Ekeler. Was weird to let Ekeler go after a down year. He’s still youngish.
I wonder where Devon White to the Eagles would be on your top 10 ...
3yr $41M and the Ravens didn't resign Queen? That makes sense, as they brought Roquan Smith in because Queen was underperforming.
Everything looks great until injuries set it
Oh no Rich, the best free agent signing was "Slinging" Sam Darnold to the Vikings... lmao. The Vikings are in a nosedive, their GM is awful, more interested in getting good deals than good players. Justin Jefferson is going to leave them, he should've been signed to a long term deal but their cheap GM botched this too, now they have to tag him and make it get ugly. They could've had extra first round picks for Danielle Hunter but they botched this and got nothing. Oh yes I know, they can trade away their future to move up and get the fourth best QB in this draft!
For those asking why I'm so mean to the Vikings? I'm a Packers fan for one, but also my whole family are Vikings fans, so I see up close the damage this rotten team does to its fans, nothing but misery upon misery.
Spot on
I got Queen and Jacobs as the best moves
Hunter and Anderson together are going to be a problem. Great signing by Houston.
Cousins is the best signing so far...definitely will impact Atlanta in a positive way...hope he stays healthy.
How do you not have Onwenu on here? Guy who plays tackle and guard, arguably was the best OL on the market. NE got a steal with that contract. Guess it's not flashy enough for the show.
This is the most Pats comment ever. Bragging about an unknown OL and getting a deal for him.
I’m sure he’s a great player but I’ve honestly never heard of him.
@@poorbob1122 “unknown OL” way to out yourself as a casual, bud
Yet what does it for the team does it make them anymore than still the bottom feeders of the AFC East. Pats still have yet to figure out that you need weapons on offense to have any success. Yet still think an aging Henry and Bourne who's a great #3 and solid #2 but a terrible #1 WR. Even more important to have weapons when gonna draft yet another young QB.
@@wisewolftony it’s called the draft
@@Brissan1 Yea and the Patriots are known for their rich history of drafting good WR. They can't even get the right when they take them in the 1st round which won't be the case this season as they are gonna be drafting a QB who maybe will work out better than the last one.
Honorable mention to the Buccaneers for resigning Evans, David and Mayfield. Falcons are a great team, but like I've been saying for what feels like the last 5 years now, don't sleep on the Bucs.
Detroit vs Everybody
It appears a new Green Bay vs Chicago power struggle will be happening now over the next few years. Thank you, Panthers, for setting up the Bears.... :( Burns, we will miss you in Carolina.... Derrick Henry to the Ravens seems like one of the best moves so far.
Barkley doesn’t really make sense to me. Their defense is tragic. They had a great RB and could have paid nothing for him.
There's a reason why Baltimore traded for Roquan.. Queen is pretty good & a good athlete but lacks slightly in the intangibles & gives up plays sometimes because of it.
What about Darnold?
That’s at the very bottom lol and I will be shocked if they plan to have Darnold starting this season. I would be demanding a trade if I was Justin and crying myself to sleep if I was a fan. Is he still seeing ghosts?
Arthur "Shooting Blanks" overpayed
Everyone “overpays” in free agency. They couldn’t stick with redzone shitter or anything close to it.
FINS UP BIATCHES!
Nobody was bigger than D hunter
All in, my @$$.- Skip Bayless (@RealSkipBayless
No Huff or CJGJ to philly??
Not sure signing a DT to a salary that is more then most QB's in the league is smart, even if he is the most disruptive DT in the league. Miami of course could not pay this guy 28 million a year like he got in LV, but they got 4 new defensive starters in his place, and tbh I think Miami just got better for it. Christian Wilkinson is a absolute beast with a motor that does not ever turn off though, fun to watch, but man that is a lot of money against your teams cap.
Why I was fine with him leaving rather have Fuller, Poyer and Brooks at like half of Wilkins salary. As those guys actually improve areas of the defense as Howard has been bad at CB the last two years. Poyer is an upgrade over Jones and Elliot and same with Brooks over Baker.
@@wisewolftony Yea I agree, I mean a position like DT is not going to break your team, but having a weak secondary will make you lose games. Miami shored up that secondary and LB's. When J. Phillips and Chubb are 100% that d-line will still be dominant. Offense got better with Jonnu Smith at TE they already upgraded that offense, upgraded center etc.. And now they have freed up like 40 million in cap space with contact reworks. Impressive so far.
@@Lancer78x Wouldn't say upgrade at center Williams was the highest graded Center in the league before his injury and replaced him with the 11th ranked center. Saved money but O-Line is the one area that has gotten worse not better.
@@wisewolftonyWell yes I agree but from what I understand, WIlliams has injured his knee so badly he may not even play football anymore at all.. When I said upgrade, I was counting that Connor Williams was just not going to be playing. It would be awesome if We got him back healthy, but I don't think that is going to happen. Sad
How is Jerry Jeudy going to the Browns not on this list
Go Pack Go! We’ll miss Jones and Owens and we will watch their progress but the time is now for this year to make moves!
Where's Mac Jones?!!?
All of a sudden Kirk makes a team that’s offense is tremendously worse than the Vikings a Super Bowl team. 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
Man I hope chargers somehow find a way to get Williams back
Niners reload 2 DE plus DT for $25 M great win kids
They have gone crazy on their front 7 so far and I LOVE IT!
All that to put 0 pressure on mahomes on yet another SB lmao.
@@Nobody-su9km Did you even watch the last SB? Zero pressure, hahaha.
they actually did have 0 pressure KC was statistically a bottom 10 offense this year, your team was embarassing in the bowl both offensively and defensively, Chiefs moved the ball at will for the most part.@@byronsmith3152
Crosby, Wilkins, and don’t forget Koonce (8 sacks) and Tyree Wilson got good at the end of the season. QB’s gonna learn why they’re afraid of the dark! 🏴☠️☠️🏴☠️☠️🏴☠️☠️
The king to the charm city. Uuuuuuuuuuu
#7 If the Steelers go to the Super Bowl with Queen, this signing will ALMOST make up for the Ravens stealing Rod Woodson and getting to the Super Bowl.
More Titans hate. Shocker. We routinely produce home run RBs (George, Johnson, Henry) but sure, he’s a Raven from the football gods, and we “let him” get hit behind the LOS 😒
now lamar got all the given weapons he need, the no more excuse !!
When did he make an excuse
I'm sorry no he doesn't lol
@@jordanpax9735better than most qbs. Can’t make excuses for Lamar, he just hasn’t won when it matters yet.
Lol the man had everything last year and choked.
@@MildsandThatYacLamar could have done more, but Flowers' tantrum in the afc title game cemented their loss
I love that Jordan Loves success has forced the hand of division rivals at QB. Not scarred of any of moves. CW is scary but not if he goes where qbs go to die
Rich you taking this Russ hating to another level. 9 time pro-bowler for 1 mil should be in the top spot.
Christian Wilkins will have the biggest impact of all these, but the Raiders overpaid and they don't have a QB so maybe all for naught.
Thank you 🎉
Raiders aren’t gonna be good next year
Wilkins was the only player where it's obvious he should never have hit free agency. Penalties and wild contracts made the Fins just run out of money.
List looks good except kirk cousin being the top on the list.
Ummm, how are the Commanders not on this list?
I dont get sportscasters. Kirk goes from being an average qb to an elite one because......??
Rich Eisen claimed Russell Gage was the most important offseason addition in 2022.
What's your point princess...
CJGJ going back to the Eagles will be better than the Barkley signing
I bet Kirk Cousins won't even get the Falcons past the Bucs in the division, let alone get them to a super bowl. Cousins, however, is still the champion of winning the business side of the NFL. Every time he signs a contract, he probably channels his inner Matt Flynn: "Hell yeah, this is awesome"
Dude pioneered the "lets make it all guaranteed" contract.
@@ericparker163 he also pioneered the guarantee that he will show up every week and play better than most.
@@jimandersen3003 Might wanna look up pioneer. He wasn't anywhere close to being the first to do that.
Burns is way to high to me as for me to put a move in the top 10 it has to be something that actually makes the team at least a playoff contender. And no way are the Giants a playoff team the already had a very bad list of weapons on offense and just lost their top weapon. And have a list of meh QB's they can choose from to throw to those weapons. So Instead I would put like Fuller to Miami on this list somewhere in the back half. As he's a massive upgrade over X Howard who's been awful the last two seasons. Meanwhile Fuller was the 7th highest graded CB in the league last season and Dolphins are only paying him 8mil a year.
Idk how Russ isn't on there. 9x pro bowler and super bowl champ for 1.2 mil.
Since when did quarterbacks play both sides of the ball? It's a team sport. I'll wait
In last place .... dallas.
The Ravens and Eagles' offenses are the biggest winners so far. Carolina upgrading the line is huge and Atlanta didn't help the D. Just got an old injured QB. Houston did AMAZING work this offseason Jacobs is gonna be so damn fun to watch! What an incredible move by the Packers especially getting one of arguably the best safety in the league! GB is blowing fans away was not expected Putting a 35-year-old QB coming back from serious injury at 1 is a wild and terrible take With three road graders in the middle of the offensive line, imagine the Rams got Derek Henry as a situational back. Brian Burns is number 1. He’s a freak athlete. One of my favorite players, so sad he went to the Giants Damn Rich! Do you watch the tape? As a Panther fan, I am happy with the move. Burns was lazy in the run game all season, IN A CONTRACT YEAR! I wouldn't pay 30 mills a year for 9 sacks a year. Wilkins & Crosby will be the best DLine tandem in football and it won’t be close This must've aired before Marques "Hollywood" Brown was signed by the Chiefs. 🧐🧐😎Re: Josh Jacobs. My question is will the COLD make a difference? Tough on RBs. Aaron Jones was fantastic at the end of the season. Jacobs is great, but letting go of Jones still stings a bit and I'm not even a Packers fan. Derrick Henry to the Ravens? Oh, Dear Star-Lord

5. Baltimore- Derrick Henry
4. Las Vegas- Christian Wilkins

1. Commander Big Kirko for number 1 pick lift loves it to pick you, Rich Eisen, on your show on live Action on stage I got no awner on cell phone okay make the not me make a trade to who you want to be new coach I hope okay talk later I am busy just have a great night daycare see there at 12pm okay see you in good morning football new podcast okay you are awesome thank you that is my day is good luck good work on the comments of this week!!!!!!!!
Falcons must see TV. Lol ok
Falcons all the way baby!!!
10. Overpaying for a Safety, of all positions
9. Replacing your franchise pillar with the same player but more expensive
8. Signing a RB purely out of spite
7. One-Year Wonder LB
6. Replacing an underrated DE with an older, flashier, more expensive DE
5. The top rushing team in the NFL spending money on a 30 year old RB that they don’t need
4. Actually kinda awesome
3. Howie pulling his patented “let’s just throw warm bodies in every direction and hope we benefit” trick
2. I don’t care about the Giants
1. Getting a top 3 NFC QB for relatively cheap and spontaneously morphing into real competitors
The ravens needed a running back bozo.
Sir you have done it. You have officially earned the title of “Worst Take of 2024”. Congratulations on this accomplishment!
Bills should be 32 due to the fact of how much they fumble the 💰💰💰
Would have been more accurate if you’d reversed the order.
This list is wacko lol Kirk at #1 paying him $180m? Started off crazy with the first 3....Aaron Jones at 8 AFTER his replacement at 9. But do you Rich I guess
Kirk at 1 is blasphemous. The overpay is insane!
Doesn't more money=bigger deal?
