Re: WFT Free Agency

So far a good FA. Fitz is a solid signing (league average player) at a decent price (below league average value) for a QB #1. He is a RR character guy and at the same time a signing that Dan will eat up. It prevents pressure for reaching for a QB with #19 pick and now gives far more options in the draft. IMO they did what needs to be done.

Like the Jackson signing a lot. Solid price but in 2 years when cap bounces back up we have a CB1 at a CB2 price.

Bengals chose to sign a decent slot CB but then went with a much lesser talent CB Chidobe Awuzie...ole cowboys cb. They went for the cheaper option

Re: WFT Free Agency

Being able to leave our new corner one on one with the best receiver allows us to be even more aggressive in scheme especially on 3rd down.

Eh I guess the coaches saw something in him last year when we signed him.. Hopefully he is just a training camp body.

Re: WFT Free Agency

Actually it is $21.3m after the Jackson signing.... we can extend Scherr and Jon Allen and save a further $13m, so no need to panic yet...... as for the size of Jacksons deal it probably allows them to jettison/extend him before year 3 so money is available for Terry McL.... or it expires after 3 years when we will need money for Montez and Chase... though by then the cap should have skyrocketed

Re: WFT Free Agency

I won't be surprised at all if Collins is back. I think they like what he brings on and off the field. You can never have enough good safeties.

True . . . but is he a good safety? Last year the only game i remember him playing well in was the game he got hurt in. The couple of years before that he was pedestrian at best. It has been 3 down years in a row since he had a good season. Due to usage? Or?

Maybe he could be a solution at LB?

He'd cover better than a typical LB.

Collins isn't a good safety. His strength was supposed to be in the box but all he did was miss tackles and take shifty angles. He's slow and can't cover. Curl was not only better but made routine tackles that Collins missed. Now he is coming off a serious leg injury which will hamper a already slow DB.

I guess he comes back just cause of his salary but not as a starter. Put him on teams. He'll be like Adam Archeletta, highest paid punt protecter in the history of the league.
