2018 IFL FREE AGENT AUCTION PREVIEW – AFC PT. 1

First off, a big THANK YOU to Nils to dedicating time and effort to team up and produce the series of articles again! 

There is a HUGE difference in free agency this season compared to last year. The AFC had an estimated $322m in available cap space in 2017. However, this season, there’s an estimated $716m in spending money. Excluding rookies, there are approximately 1,000 free agents, seeking a roster spot in the AFC. We should see plenty of bids to go around! 

Approach: We pulled the roster data on June 15th (8pm MST). Our goals were to:

  • Estimate roster spots and cap space
  • Assess team needs
  • Assess potential free agency options. However, the focus this year will be highlighting key positions of need instead of potential landing spots for players.  We received too many requests to not identify players this off-season.

This article will concentrate on the AFC East.

IFL Free Agent Auction Preview – AFC Pt. 4

To start looking at our next big off season event, Nils and I teamed up to look at the free agency landscape on the AFC side. We estimate around 322m will be available for the AFC to fill some gaps in rosters and make a run at pushing Tennessee out of the Championship chair. That cash will come in handy as 1,150 free agents (excluding rookies) are looking to earn paychecks in the AFC. This article will concentrate on the AFC East. We hope you all enjoyed the series!

2016 Undrafted Free Agent Auction Recap

Well Gents, the UDFA auction has closed.  For the 21 of us who participated, I hope you had fun and enjoyed the smaller auction!  To me, and a few others that I have spoken with, the UDFA auction presented an opportunity to acquire talent with little to no risk.  What’s not to like about that?  For the 11 GMs who didn’t even make a bid, what was the reasoning?  Lack of money?  Didn’t believe there was talent left over?  Didn’t want to worry about making cuts?  For whatever the reason, I hope we increase the participants next year!

IFL NFC – Recapping how Money was Spent on Defense

Written by: Jai and Josh.0 | 09 April 2016

Here is how the NFC spent their money on the defensive side.  As stated in the first article, the goal of this was to recap and highlight what we observed from the results on the inaugural IFL auction.  However, instead of looking at it team by team, we wanted to look at how money was spent at each position in the conference.  Enjoy!
