Judging by 8 different threads blowing up, my phone blowing up, news feeds blowing up, this has been one of the craziest free agency periods I have seen. Some are gloating, others are sobbing. Ill get us started with my risers and fallers.

Risers:
Patrick Mahomes - Loaded weaponry for my QB.
Mitchell Trubisky - Lets see what he can do with some real pass catchers.
Mack Hollins - Lots of pass catchers leaving, none coming in.
Joe Mixon - New OL player will only make things better for the entire offense.
Stefon Diggs - Cousins baby!
Taywan Taylor - A bit of a sleeper. New OC likes spread concepts (cant remember where I read that) and they didnt bring in Landry (whew).
Chad Williams - Both Browns gone, decent QB if Bradford can stay healthy.

Fallers:
Corey Coleman - Gut punch. SF you have been a big disappointment not grabbing any free agent WRs. Make me happy and get Coleman on the cheap.
Curtis Samuel - Torrey Smith puts a damper on my internal excitement.
Cameron Meredith - Bears brass are apparently not believers. I guess I shouldnt be?
David Njoku - Landry...
Adam Shaheen - Seriously Chicago, did you have to kick me in the nads so many times?

TBD:
Tyreek Hill - Some like the Sammy signing for Hill. Could be because Sammy can take on #1 corners and that will free up Hill as a flanker, end arounds, running plays, gadget plays, go routes ect.
Josh Gordon - I think Gordon is the least effected by the Landry signing. Taylor has a nice deep ball which may be where the Browns utilize Gordon more.

So far im most worried about my big investment in hill I made 3 weeks ago. I also own Sammie so I took it square in the pants there.

I surprisingly have not been too affected by this..

ARob arrow up..
ARod? I'm not sure if it's up or down..
Thielen & Cook, up? Maybe?

Beyond that.. I don't know if anything else impacts me too much, yet.

Ditto. And now Crowell is off to the disgrace that is the Jets.

But hey... I made a good trade for Tevin Coleman earlier today.

Sammy to KC has me hopeful for an increase in value for Josh Reynolds.

Crowell to NYJ has me expecting more of the same moving forward. McCown was decent in 2017, but can he stay healthy again? And who will be their next QB, because he's not on the roster yet and that will play a role in what kind of offense the Jets field in 2019 and beyond.

I'm not sure if Arob kills Merediths value. Did anybody really think he is a true wr1? Now the offense and Trubisky is TBD, but I don't always feel a stud across from him is a bad thing, though he won t be force fed targets. He also won t get top corners or doubles, if he would get those to begin with. Or are we saying he falls below wr2 on his own team?

I didnt have a problem with the Arob signing, but with what the Bears tendered Meredith with. An original rnd tender for an undrafted free agent to me translates they dont think all that much of him. For just 1 mil more then could have put a 2nd rnd tender on him.

I had a bunch of FA WRs to root for and they landed in Chicago, Washington, and Jacksonville. Meh.

Although I've never been a Sammy Watkins fan, as a mahomes owner I guess it gives him another "weapon. ARob to the Bears, I guess I'll have to wait and see but I'm not 100 percent loving it.

Glad to see Trubisky get such an uptick in year two. Also glad to see Graham paired with Rodgers.
