What gets me is that according to the poll - our signing of R-El was THE WORST offensive offseason free agent signing and Archuletta was THE WORST defensive signing.

Granted Archuletta didn't seem to be high on everyone's list but, sorry, the J. Peterson signing seemed far more extreme to me. As for R-El - weren't at least 4 teams looking to sign him? Yeah yeah. We paid them a premium - so that means it was bad. bleah - what idiots. I can't wait for the season to start.

BTW- I would agree that, of all our signings, I think the Arch signing is the biggest for "boom or bust" potential but even if it busts - and as I understand the contract, we cut him next year as post 7/1 cut and he only counts 1M against the cap next year and 3M in 2008. If he works out, our secondary will be monstrous AND, GW will have so many f***ing different ways to come at you, opposing offenses won't know their head from their ass by the end of the game. All they will know is that they are leaving the field in immense pain.

If Arch's back holds up - This defense is gonna hurt people next year.
