I would not be surprised to see Barnes, Melifonwu, and Levi all sign with the Jets. None of those guys will command crazy money, and all have a chance to significantly outplay the deal they will sign.

Barnes 1 year, 8mil
Melifonwu 1 year 5mil
Levi 2 years 20mil

I think Levi may get a deal that will surprise people, he had some terrific games rushing the passer this year, even though he had a low sack total.

It would suck to lose them, but we have too many very good players we have to pay and you have to make sacrifices.

Barnes is by far the best of those three players. Though GMs do prioritize DL. I just don’t know how Levi’s injury history will be handled. I sure do hope he gets a bag. Really like that young man…

Barnes would be my top priority from that list

They don’t have a lot of cap room and no qb.
They can cut a few guys to afford some of the lions part time players.

Supposedly AG is not a fan of Iffy. He thinks he’s weak. The whole “are you hurt or injured” Iffy ain’t playing hurt. He won’t be a Lion or Jet next year IMO

Iffy won’t cost much at all IMO. So I’d be surprised if he left the Lions simply because it’s not like anyone is going to be bidding for his services. We’ll see though of course.

Barnes and Levi are wild cards because I really don’t know what their markets will be. I would like all 3 back personally.

I doubt the Lions even want him back is what I’m saying.

Yea you could be right. I may find that hard to believe only from the standpoint that as soon as he’s healthy he played a TON of snaps. So they must not be that down on him. But I hear ya

Good point but what was the alternative? Cooper the #8 S?

He may cost more than you think. He will be stuck with one year deals, but he has put elite play on tape.

A one year deal worth 5-8mil would not surprise me.

Safeties were on the market all offseason.

Good ones too.

I Don’t expect much more than the minimum for IFFY

Barnes is gonezo.

Levi too.

Iffy probably back.

I like that you are keeping CD3 and Zeitler

Two very good starters for us.

Levi should net us a 5th round comp pick
Barnes 6th round comp pick
Davenport 7th round comp pick
Muhammad 7th round comp pick

CD3 is the guy he will want, his was huge in that defense.

I wonder where they are in bringing back DJ Reed. If they’re going to open the bag for someone, it might as well be him.

DJ reed does not want to come back.

I do think CD3 is gonna be one of the big ones hes gonna target.
