Our staff got together to weigh in on Derrick Favors’ new contract, what’s left in the NBA free agent pool, and the Jazz’s broad approach to keeping the good vibes rolling. But the offseason waits for nobody.

In fact, we were gathering offseason predictions and reactions when more news broke. Sources told ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski on Tuesday evening that the Jazz had locked in two of their young guards: former lottery pick Dante Exum reportedly agreed to a three-year, $33 million deal, and Raul Neto and the Jazz shook hands on a two-year agreement worth $4.4 million, with a team option on year two. Both guards and Favors will be permitted to sign their contracts as early as Friday, when the NBA’s contract moratorium is lifted.

So let’s get down to business and see what this gang of SCH writers and contributors thinks about the Jazz offseason so far.

Questions include:

• What’s your assessment of Favors’ new deal: a two-year pact worth $16 million per season, with incentives and a non-guaranteed second year?

• Who’s your favorite (somewhat realistic) Jazz target for all or part of the Mid-Level Exception ($8.6M)?

• OK, now let’s get slightly more creative… what’s your dream scenario for how the Jazz finish the offseason?

• Reactions to Exum’s 3-year, $33 million deal.

• The Jazz are obviously valuing continuity this offseason over getting into the all-out arms race. Is that smart, or will the approach lead to them getting stuck on the path to contention?
