You may be looking at it from a standpoint of bringing in named players who will start immediately. If so, then yes none of the moves make much sense. But, if you look at each of these signings individually, and together, what you see is a solid push by the FO to make several statements:
1) We are going to push at every position. Was TE a glaring need like OL, no, so this signing puts a value on bringing in competition at one of the most solid spots on the team.
2) We understand our needs. It's not surprising that we are bringing in(have brought in) several OL, ILB, and RB's to look at. The FO shows a basic understanding of our weakest links
3) We will not overpay/guarantee for anything or anyone at this point. This demonstrates that the FO understands we are not that 1 player/signing away from Championship.
4) Finally, all these moves - the cuts and signings - reflect a new culture of productivity based employment, not earnings based. Every person on this roster should see a willingness on the new FO to let anyone go, and bring competition to any spot, and if you are not performing, someone else will be here that will gladly push themselves to perform.
That's how I see these moves, and I think it's a change we all can believe in
