I'm worried about our Oline next season..but we'll see.
That said, I think the DB moves so far have been solid.

I like the signing because he can help us in more ways than 1.

Do you think we have the draft picks to bolster the O-line?

Yes, but the problem is that O-line picks USUALLY take a couple seasons to get to speed. There's exceptions sure, but for the most part..

I still hope they take a S in the draft early ( McKinley) considering what I've read I don't think they expect him to be starting at S, mostly a ST ace

After looking at that, we may have gotten a steal here.
He has great range as a center fielder on the back end.

It really looks like an upgrade to me.

I trust John Lynch when it comes to evaluating/signing a safety.

Yup. I heard all year on here about how our ST was a liability. Of course they totally owned the Packers and saved our behinds on that one. I'll be excited to see George play cover those kicks

He's definitely Tartt's replacement on the roster as vet safety, and should throw his hat into the mix for the other safety spot. Draft a safety prospect and have a camp battle: Hufanga, Odum, TMoore, rookie.

I heard he knows a little about the position...
