Dang, lynch sure wasn't listening to fans but he sure as heck was paying attn to what we desperately needed.
No way this doesn't come out as an A. To really make it a knockout, maybe Saffold (OG, Rams) unless he is already gone. That has to be $10 mil + however. So probably not but it is setting us up for an OG at pick in rd 2 or 3 ...i hope. Still a FA OG is possible, but we'll see.
Saffold signed with Tennessee. 4 years, $44 million, $22.5 million guaranteed. I would have been happy with that. But I think you're right, we'll target a guard in round 2 or 3.

Every single player that hits FA has some concern: overpaid, injury prone, too old, diva attitude... Otherwise they wouldnt be there.

Hopefully, it's a 3rd rounder - I want that #36 on a WR or Safety.

Nothing exciting. Low risk signing. If he manages to stay healthy could be a steal for the season, but I don't have my hopes up.

But don't you see? That is exactly how to break the curse!
Low risk, high reward signing, so our front office had zero to lose by bringing him in.
I'm not getting my hopes up, but if Verrett can come even close to regaining his old form, this becomes a huge addition to this defense and hopefully we can then work out a LTD to keep him here.

Fighting fire with fire. Two negative equal a positive right?

We were 13 last year in yards allowed. If we got some turnovers we would have been top 10.
I think we are top 5 now especially if we get turnovers.

I love it. Props to whoever prompted the team to look past the silly height preference in this scheme.
